After making his "historic" remarks on same-sex unions last week, President Barack Obama led a conference call with black church pastors to explain his support for gay marriage, the New York Times reported that the call was held with "eight or so African-American ministers.
"They were wrestling with their ability to get over his theological position," the Rev. Delman Coates, a Maryland pastor who was on the call, told the NY Times.
The title of the article was "Obama calls pastors to explain gay marriage support; black churches ‘conflicted’
"Conflicted"? There really is no reason to be conflicted. They either believe the Bible and the tenets of the faith to which they claim - or they don't. It is decision time - God or mammon. They may not vote Republican but Barack Obama and the entire Democrat party unequivocally represent the WORSE of all evils and cannot be a justifiable choice for -anyone- who purports to be a disciple of Jesus Christ.
The ramifications of what we are seeing are staggering as not only are homosexuals winning state by state the "right" to pervert the God ordained institution of marriage, they are increasingly violating the morals of innocent children by indoctrinating them into the destructive and deadly lifestyle of Homosexuality.
This I pose to these African American pastors around the country who are charged with extra responsibility by virtue of their priesthood. Jesus specifically stated in Matthew 18:6 "but if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea."
I have no doubt that this pearl of truth will fall upon deaf ears when it is cast before self aggrandizing charlatans like Al Sharpton. This is for the serious pastors who may have been exploited but do not regard their station in the body of Christ as a vehicle of extortion or political stepping stone.
The choice is the stepping stone and the millstone or obedience to God. It has already required a blind eye to 50 million brutally murdered babies.
The compromise of baby's blood for affirmative action is as bad as it gets. We just have to hope that perhaps this most glaring new addition to the (D) stable of abominations before God may serve as a wake-up call. It just doesn't cut it to contend that "(R) is worse then (D)" simply because conservatives believe it is the responsibility of individuals and the Church, not the coercion of centralized government to help the poor.
Tell God that it is justified supporting the party whose PRIMARY agenda is the killing 50 million + babies, removing God from every public discourse, abrogating our freedom of worship and desecrating the God ordained institution of marriage for 30 pieces of silver.
Woe betide those who rub this in the face of the God to Whom they purport to follow while giving approbation to such abominations as embodied by this emissary of Satan himself in the United States. Last week I expounded upon this situation in more depth in the following video commentary:

When they go to the voting booths the tribal instincts will kick in for the glorious brotha Barack -—thus whom they serve with piety.
MLK had it all wrong—skin color + blood oath loyalty is greater than content of character. Dear Lawd haves Moycee on an prodigal brotha—he means well ma Gawd.
Obama has chosen to serve the Hollywood Gay Mafia.
What you said! I’ll add that liberals are the same way. They can’t help but vote for a democrat.
For most that will be the case but he will have to lose SOME of them.
Why do so few, if any, remark on the inanity of the whole idea of gay marriage? Pat Buchanan came close today on Megyn Kelly’s show, but he seemed hesitant to take the last step. What’s more ridiculous, more illogical, more fanciful than a “marriage” between two persons who are incapable of mating? Whose “union” is and always will be unproductive? If we’re willing to change the meaning of a physical, social, religious state that has existed far longer than the two millennia with which it’s usually credited, what other meanings are we likely to accept? To put it simply, gay marriage isn’t simply an abomination, it’s an impossibility, an absurdity; and no-one’s saying it!
I think I figured out Global Warming...it’s the fires of Hell being stoked.
There can only be ONE GOD, and that God is OBAMA! Praise the MESSIAH! (Or the IRS might pay you a visit).
Just because Saul Alinsky dedicated his book to Satan is no reason to believe that their agenda is of an AntiChrist. < /sarc >
And the Lavender Mafia who anchor our daily news broadcasts and edit and write columns in our daily newspapers.
Their numbers in media are greater than the 2% of general population they hold.
It’s turning people’s relations into a sex toy slavery institution.
It is rather insulting to black people, but, whatever, if it is a black man doing it to a black man... or a muslim in chief doing it to black people...
Joshua 24:15,16 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that [were] on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. And the people answered and said, God forbid that we should forsake the LORD, to serve other gods; and that includes the Sith(Sick)lord Omuslim.
The Color Fuscia....
20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!
