Jamie Foxx called President Barack Obama “our lord and savior” while presenting at the2012 Soul Train Awards in Las Vegas, Nev.
“It’s like church over here. It’s like church in here. First of all, give an honor to God and our lord and savior Barack Obama, Barack Obama,” Foxx said.
The comment by the comedian and actor was received warmly with shouts and applause from the audience.
Foxx has long been an advocate for Obama, as have many other celebrities, such as Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Eva Longoria and George Clooney.
Jay-Z performed at Obama’s final rally in Ohio prior to his reelection. Longoria, Clooney, Beyoncé and her husband, Jay-Z, are among notable stars who have hosted fundraisers in support of Obama being elected for a second term.
On election night, Katy Perry wrote, “The people have the power! Proud to stand by you for four more years,” after Obama tweeted to his followers, “This happened because of you. Thank you.”
Avid supporter Eva Longoria wrote, “Amazing speech by @BarackObama reelected for his 2nd term! America is and can be united for the greater good of all Americans!"
Lady Gaga wrote, “I just got off the stage in Columbia!! Congratulations Mr. President @BarackObama We are so proud to be an American tonight! Yes!! Yes! Yes!!”

RE: “Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath:
I don’t see any Christian threatening Jaimie Foxx with anything for his blasphemy.
I’d like to see what happens if Jaimie Foxx were to say this though -— “I’d like to thank Allah and His prophet Barack Obama...”
We’ll see how the word “Vengeance” applies...

Hmmm - not good - You would have to say if Obama fails to rebuke this stuff then he tacitly condones it - not a good place for any human to be!
It’s tough but Jesus said love your enemies pray for those who persecute you! Like Johnny P used to say this is where the rubber meets the road!

>>Now, I listened to the video several times and I am hard of hearing, but that word “for” is there and it’s important.<<
No, it is not. You are the only one who “heard” the word “for.”
It is not there. What you said is absolutely false.
I see you corrected it. Thanks.
;-)
Amen.
“For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.” (Romans 1:25)
“Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity...”
This portion of scripture is really being fulfilled today, especially among those who would worship this flawed mere mortal. A believer would CORRECT this actor; Obama never does, rather accepting the worship that rightfully belongs to the Lord God.
There really IS a lot of weird stuff with this guy. You’re right. As a believer, I’m not as certain yet as some other Christians yet that he’s the Beast or if he is a forerunner of the Beast. (He certainly does seem to be the devil’s counterfeit of John the Baptist in preparing the way for someone even worse than himself.) But I truly believe that will be revealed to us, and that he WILL play some role.
I also know, as our Pastor said a couple of weeks back, that Barack Obama will one day have to confess that JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, as all created beings will be confessing those words.
“Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.” Matthew 12:31-32
Fortunately for Jamie and the 2012 DNC convention delegates, it doesn’t appear they know how to blaspheme the Holy Spirit,
I’ve been studying bible prophecy since the late 1970’s, and very rarely in a public place have I ever heard anyone talking about the end times and Jesus coming,
Over the last 6 months I’ve overheard four separate conversations on the topic,
I’m glad to hear more people openly wondering about it, its past time for folks to consider it,
Acts 12:21-23 On the appointed day Herod, wearing his royal robes, sat on his throne and delivered a public address to the people. They shouted, “This is the voice of a god, not of a man.” Immediately, because Herod did not give praise to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died.
Exactly, Mitch and I made reference to this earlier on in the thread in our own inimitable fashion.
