Obama is a "Black Liberation" communist. He hasn't a religious bone in his body. Black Liberation Theology is a bogus religion set up by communists to advance a revolutionary communist agenda. Farrakhan's so-called "Nation of Islam" is another Black Liberation Theology revolutionary communist front.

A great thread, but it should be read by white Christians as well, or maybe even more so.

The white churches has had much longer to teach people the truth, but it seems they are losing it.

There are so many false teachers in the white churches that are teaching socialism and every thing else except what the Bible says, that i am not even interested in going to church any more even though i know that there are a few good ones left.

People will holler religion, religion, when it is not religion that we need but the truth of Gods word.

God bless and hope for the best but prepare for the worst.

The thing also that bothers me is the minister told me this was God's will

That's the biggest lie that, I also, heard before. You're right it's people use of their free will - not God's will - that got him in.

Thanksgiving and prayers for you, Lloyd Marcus.

Saying the truth and writing it takes a lot of love and even more courage.

Prayers for eyes, ears, and minds, to be opened and hearts to be turned before it’s too late.

God bless.

Okay Im not one to preach but remineded of “Love not the world”... Holding an evil half-black man above Jesus teachings is a cop-out on their Christianity and we were told the “love of many would wax cold”. Its putting Gods kingdom behind a racisal issue. sad.

Isn’t it just great how these democrats are using God’s will like they really know anything about God.. The only reason Obama got into the white house is because good people believed him, and they should not have, that is good white and black..I did not vote for the Muslim I knew what he was..

Heck, evangelicals were falling for Mike Huckabee, who is only marginally better than Jimmy Carter.

And I know people who voted for Carter thinking he was a genuine Christian. There are Repubs out there who will tell you, Carter was the only Dem they had ever voted for. And for some people, Carter is the reason they became Repubs, so it all works out sometimes.

And I know white Christian Repubs who were impressed with Obama early on because he seemed to be so outspoken about his faith. Thank goodness the Reverend Wright episode cleared that up for most of them, but not all of them I have to say. I have a boss who is religious, and switched from Repub to Dem, so impressed was he after reading O's biography.

So, it isn't just black Christians with this problem.

I've told this before. I was talking to a black pastor who started bad-mouthing Condoleeza Rice to me. I smiled, put up my hand and said, man, you're talking to the wrong guy. I'm in love with that lady, I said, she is one of the most intelligent and capable people we've got in government and I admire her a great deal.

He immediately started sputtering and back-tracking. He lives in an echo-chamber, and I think it never occurred to him that everyone didn't hate her.

Sometimes the best answer is to smile and stand up for what you believe, and open up the echo chamber.

“The thing also that bothers me is the minister told me this was God’s will, if it wasn’t Obama would never be in the white house”

This is true. God also put Pharoah on the throne. And Hitler.

Doesn’t mean they are good leaders.

Blacks are 13% of the US population but have over 50% of the abortions.

I went to a black church in east Austin a few months back and nothing about Christ was even mentioned.

It was nothing but a social gospel which isn't the gospel at all. I was extremely disappointed in what I heard in-between those walls.

Their stomachs are more important than their kids or the Creator of the universe. Sorry to say.

So much for post-racial, it’s tearing our Church apart.

OH! And then that includes his church. The other minister was Eddie Long in Atlanta. They know nothing of God’s Word - use Scripture to preach but do not live it. Only when one lives it do they know it.

because good people believed him

As little as they knew about him, they voted for him. Shows how even less they know about the Word of God. They took his word over God's. And that's a losing proposition every time.

"Let God be true, and every man a liar. As it is written: "So that you may be proved right when you speak and prevail when you judge."

Very well said. Don’t get discouraged; if even one person opens his or her eyes you have succeeded.

God Bless!
