Joshua DuBois, former head of the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, appeared yesterday on MSNBCs UP with Steve Kornacki, during which he defended President Obamas profoundly insulting anti-Christian remarks at last Thursdays National Prayer Breakfast in the Nations Capital.
The president admonished Christians not to think their faith somehow different than the faith that has produced ISIL (and al Qaeda and Boko Haram and Abu Sayyaf and Hamas and Hezbollah and all too many other Islamic terrorist groups).
Remember, spake Obama, during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ.
And lest the more than three-quarters of us in this country who count ourselves Christ followers get on our high horse, as Obama put it, he reminded us that slavery and Jim Crow all too often was justified in the name of Christ.
DuBois, whom Time Magazine in 2009 anointed Obamas pastor-in-chief, maintained during his MSNBC appearance that the president spoke the gospel truth. That earned him a stinging rebuke from, of all talking heads, MSNBCs Lawrence ODonnell, who was guesting on Kornackis show alongside DuBois.
ODonnell told Obamas spiritual adviser that it was absurd to suggest some sort of parallel between the Crusades the last of which was all the way back in the 15th century and the unholy war waged today by ISIL. He also told DuBois it was ridiculous to blame Christianity for racial bigotry.
DuBois, raised in the African Methodist Episcopal church, has on a previous occasion vouched for Obamas Christian faith. I happen to know the president personally, he said, and know his heart and know hes a believer.
Well, if Obama is a true Christ follower, he certainly doesnt show it. Indeed, the president rarely goes to church and has spent just one Christmas morning of his presidency in the pews, as reported by Politico this past December.
But it is by his fruits his unGodly policies that we know this president.
Indeed, Obama has given his presidential blessing to gay marriage, dismissing the warning of the Apostle Paul that neither homosexuals, nor sodomites will inherit the kingdom of God.
The president also has cast his lot with the nations abortionists, who have slaughtered more than five million unborn children since Obama has been in the White House. The Prophet Amos declared that the Lords punishment awaits those that have ripped open the woman with child.
What particularly galls about Obama is that he represents himself as a man of faith because he selectively quotes Scripture and invokes the name of the Lord.
Well, as the Bard wrote in the Merchant of Venice, The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose. And as Christ Himself advised, Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father.
Indeed, that Obama shows up each year for the National Prayer Breakfast doesnt prove him a believer. No, it exposes the professed Christian as a deceiver.
My gut tells me that he is an Atheist who has deep Muslim sympathies. I think any Christian leanings he professes are so much political window dressing. He could also just be a Muslim, though not a very devout one.
I think he will announce what he really is his inevitable autobiography after he leaves office. Whatever he says he is, he will say his beliefs have “evolved” as not to make himself look like a total liar.
That’s true of Obama ... AND ... a large segment of our population in the USA. My guess is that there is only 10-20% of the USA population who are Christians, despite the rest of them saying they are!
Would Obama even know enough to be able to lie “accurately”? ... :-) ...
I know a lot of people like to say that, but I don’t think so.
When was he baptized? Where was he baptized? The more I hear from the Clown in Chief the more I believe he is a Muslim.
Why is there still an argument about Obama’s religious affiliation when he himself told Steffie Stephanopoulos that he was a Muslim?
Ever heard a Christian make the mistake of saying that he is a muzzie? Especially with a name like Hussein?
It’s like a Calvinist “mistakenly” admitting that he is a Catholic.
By his works he is known: DECEIVER!
Rev. Wright was the closest he has been to a Christian Church and no Christian would attend and say it’s a Christian Church.
There is no evidence Obama is a Christian.
So far, I’ve never read, or heard from Barry’s lips, any confession of belief that Jesus of Nazareth is Christ, the Son of the living God, King of kings and Lord of lords.
I have heard his confessions of love for facets of Islam.
A deceiver without question. Just listen to or read all of his trash.
I think he is demon-possessed, simple as that.
You are correct about his background. B0 is a theological atheist and cultural Mooselim/Marxist. Rev Wright is close friends with Farrakan, and not much different theologically.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they are all demon-possessed.
I agree. When the real persecution comes, the average church will dwindle from 300 to 15, just like it did in early Communist Russia.
“DuBois, raised in the African Methodist Episcopal church, has on a previous occasion vouched for Obamas Christian faith. I happen to know the president personally, he said, and know his heart and know hes a believer.
Oh really? The Bible says only God can truly know a man’s heart.
Thanks for the link. Great essay on the crusades... I shared that one.
Oh, come now. He is at least as sincere as Nancy Pelosi and John Kerry when they do that...
Why bother? He has already finished himself off right there.
John 14:6 Jesus said...I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.
Thanks for the link. Here's another an animated graphic map compiled by a scholar that FReepers will find very enlightening:
Gosh, what makes you think that?
no, 0 wouldn’t know to keep track of all the cr@p...
