You said — “A bunch of mush written by an Obama voter that is trying to rationalize his decision. Nothing else.”
That writer wasn’t writing to praise Obama, but to question the understanding that Bush has about Christianity and the basis for his salvation. I run across the very same thing in talking to supposed Christians. You ask a few questions, listen to their answers and you gain an understanding if they *really* know the *basis* for their own salvation or not. If they don’t, then it pays to make is clear from what the Bible says, so that they aren’t mistaken in what they believe and in missing out on a “saving faith”.
In addition, I have to question Bush’s understanding of who God is, if he says that the Muslims and Christians worship the same God. That raises serious questions for me, because the god that the Muslims worship has the “attributes” of Satan and not the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Therefore, if one says that about Muslims and their false god, in comparison with Christianity and our Creator God, then we’ve got some real serious problems with understanding what the Bible says and who God is.
Furthermore, if Bush thinks that “dividing the land of Israel” is something God approves of — then he is seriously mistaken. This will result in serious judgement upon the United States. This is another big lack of understanding that Bush has.
So, there are several areas of question here...
Amen!!
Caution, Ramius, this one is a fraud, a poseur at Bible knowledge. [http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2154244/posts?page=372#372]
It’s not my place to judge. But even so I’ve seen nothing in The President’s words or deeds that give me any pause about his personal walk. There are plenty of The Saved that have a great many misunderstandings about a great many things. This forum alone contains plenty of evidence of that. Someday perhaps we can all sit at the table and laugh with the Lord about those things.
I heartily agree about the dividing of Israel. Any president who gets that to happen is putting our nation in big trouble with God.
