“unto whom much was earned over sweat, risks, and hard work....not much should be required”

[CitizenUSA]

Satan liked to quote scripture out of context, too.

Psalm 91: 11-12

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

[beaversmom]

Isn’t there a commandment about this? Something about carrying the Lord’s name for the purposes of evil.

[StonyBurk]

I just remind myself that the Book tells us that the World cannot understand the thins of the Spirit. If I ever heard anybody like Obama quote Scripture without distortion I would have to doubt Biblical truth. I do not doubt the Bible. and I do not believe Barak Hussein Obama II is a born from above John #3 type believer.He can claim he is a Christian -but the tree is known by its fruit—and Obama so reflects th eone who said to Eve “thou shalt not surly die!”seem to recollect he was fair at twisting scripture too.

As I posted earlier today about Rome's decline...

One needs to deeply consider why Jesus overturned the tables at the temple and why he said he did so...

Jesus would have never stood there at a PRAYER breakfast with a money-changer or thief.

[silverleaf]

There is something jarring about this pretentious fraud quoting scripture about loving his neighbor as himself, when all of his african family lives in poverty or in taxpayer-supported public housing

He could probably build his brother George a better hut just for the cost of one pair of moochelle’s designer sneakers

He could have built a whole village for the costs of moochelle’s vacation to Spain or Africa or Hawaii

[Skepolitic]

“For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, he or she should still eat well and live well. For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. Now them that are such we command that they take an EBT card, Section 8 housing, Medicaid, and free daycare. But ye, working taxpayers, must weary in well doing because higher taxes and more intrusive regulations are needed to achieve equality.”

II Thessalonians 3:10ff Obama version

[Jack Hammer]

Marx and Obama are pretty much the same, so there’s really only a single alternative.

[ballplayer]

Beware of False Prophets

[Kaslin]

No, he wouldn’t. He would have chased him out like he chased the money changers out

HOW EXCESSIVE GOVERNMENT KILLED ANCIENT ROME

[kjo]

One thing I am certain of...Obama is no Christian. His “pastor” was a hater...he was raised Muslim...and educated by secular marxists.

He’s no Christian. He’s a pretender.

[tflabo]

Consider that the cruel taxations imposed by Rome caused the journey of the pregnant Mary and Joseph to distant Bethlehem where Jesus was born in a manger. Jesus was born to save sinners and not to support Government policies.

Obama's Church: Gospel of Hate
Kathy Shaidle, FrontPageMag.com
Monday, April 07, 2008

In March of 2007, FOX News host Sean Hannity had engaged Obama’s pastor in a heated interview about his Church’s teachings. For many viewers, the ensuing shouting match was their first exposure to "Black Liberation Theology"...

Like the pro-communist Liberation Theology that swept Central America in the 1980s and was repeatedly condemned by Pope John Paul II, Black Liberation Theology combines warmed-over 1960s vintage Marxism with carefully distorted biblical passages. However, in contrast to traditional Marxism, it emphasizes race rather than class. The Christian notion of "salvation" in the afterlife is superseded by "liberation" on earth, courtesy of the establishment of a socialist utopia.

Catholics for Marx [Liberation Theology]
By Fr. Robert Sirico
FrontPageMagazine.com | Thursday, June 03, 2004

In the days when the Superpowers were locked in a Cold War, Latin America seethed with revolution, and millions lived behind an iron curtain, a group of theologians concocted a novel idea within the history of Christianity. They proposed to combine the teachings of Jesus with the teachings of Marx as a way of justifying violent revolution to overthrow the economics of capitalism.

The Gospels were re-rendered not as doctrine impacting on the human soul but rather as windows into the historical dialectic of class struggle. These "liberation theologians" saw every biblical criticism of the rich as a mandate to expropriate the expropriating owners of capital, and every expression of compassion for the poor as a call for an uprising by the proletarian class of peasants and workers.

The Real Story Behind Rev. Wright's Controversial Black Liberation Theology Doctrine
Monday , May 5, 2008
FoxNews/Hannity's America
[special Friday night edition--original airdate May 2, 2008]

(some key excerpts)

["(Jose) Diaz-Balart is the son of Rafael Diaz-Balart y Guitierrez (a former Cuban politician). He has three bothers, Rafael Diaz-Balart (a banker), Mario Diaz-Balart (a US Congressman) and Lincoln Diaz-Balart (also a US Congressman). His aunt, Mirta Diaz-Balart, was Fidel Castro's first wife."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jose_Diaz-Balart]

JOSE DIAZ-BALART, TELEMUNDO NETWORK: "Liberation theology in Nicaragua in the mid-1980's was a pro-Sandinista, pro-Marxist, anti-U.S., anti-Catholic Church movement. That's it. No ifs, ands, or buts. His church apparently supported, in the mid-'80s in Nicaragua, groups that supported the Sandinista dictatorships and that were opposed to the Contras whose reason for being was calling for elections. That's all I know. I was there.

I saw the churches in Nicaragua that he spoke of, and the churches were churches that talked about the need for violent revolution and I remember clearly one of the major churches in Managua where the Jesus Christ on the altar was not Jesus Christ, he was a Sandinista soldier, and the priests talked about the corruption of the West, talked about the need for revolution everywhere, and talked about 'the evil empire' which was the United States of America."

REV. BOB SCHENCK, NATIONAL CLERGY COUNCIL: "it's based in Marxism. At the core of his [Wright's] theology is really an anti-Christian understanding of God, and as part of a long history of individuals who actually advocate using violence in overthrowing those they perceive to be oppressing them, even acts of murder have been defended by followers of liberation theology. That's very, very dangerous."

SCHENCK: "I was actually the only person escorted to Dr. Wright. He asked to see me, and I simply welcomed him to Washington, and then I said Dr. Wright, I want to bring you a warning: your embrace of Marxist liberation theology. It is contrary to the Gospel, and you need, sir, to abandon it. And at that he dropped the handshake and made it clear that he was not in the mood to dialogue on that point."

from 2008:

Barack Obama's 'lost' brother found in Kenya

George Hussein Onyango Obama,
Senator Barack Obama's long lost
brother was tracked down living in
a hut on the outskirts of Nairobi

Senator Barack Obama's long lost brother has been tracked down for the first time living in a shanty town in Kenya, reports claimed

Mr Obama, 26, the youngest of the presidential candidate's half-brothers, spoke for the first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender.

"No-one knows who I am", he told the magazine, before claiming: "I live here on less than a dollar a month."

If a Republican president spoke about a scriptural reference you can expect the long knives of the left would be waving in defense about so-called ‘separation of church/state issues’.

As a Christian, I am not offended by Obama using the words of Jesus to make political points———I’m surprised it took him so long to do it.....

Here’s a man who rarely goes to church, spend twenty years listening to black liberation theology using the word of God to make political points?

Color me surprised....not

At least he isn’t carrying around the Clinton extra large Bible and waving it at reporters
