I have had a day since this was posted.
What upsets me about Obama talking this way about our religion is how similiar he sounds like the Episcopal Bishops and Priests, who have hurt the Episcopal church.
The Methodist Preachers, who drove my wonderful MIL away from her lifetime church. She made sure that her final service was in the funeral home, 10 miles away in another town and the eulogy was delived by a Baptist Preacher not one of the liberal ministers forced on her and the other members of her former church.
We are seeing couples and singles coming from other main line churches to our parish where the Priest, Asst. Priest and Deacon are firm believers not liberal nay sayers.
What makes Obama, the Oreo CINO so dangerous with his look at Christianity? He could be our president and do more harm to Christian churches Jewish Religions than imaginable as our president.
Obama’s in for a tough fight.

What Obama speaks of isn’t Christianity. Christianity is accepting Christ as our Savior and trying to live a life worthy of His grace. Christianity is acceptance of the inerrant testimony of the Bible. The point isn’t whether we fully understand it or not. The point is we accept it as God’s Word, whole and true. It is our belief that gives us justification because of what He sacrificed for us sinners. We don’t deserve that grace, nor can we earn it. It’s a gift and all we need do is accept it.
This is nothing of what Obama speaks. He speaks of Christians having to subdue their beliefs in order to create a more perfect society on Earth. He has no understanding that Christians don’t live for a perfect society on Earth. They live for what’s to come after this life is over. And with that in mind, why then should we subdue our beliefs? This life simply isn’t important in the grand scheme of things. But this belief of his is proof enough that Obama isn’t a Christian, doesn’t understand Christian belief, and simply uses the garment of Christianity to fulfill his Worldly desires.
