The guy is a Communist
Wotta maroon!
The antichrist is among us.
Notice how he picks the opposite viewpoint from Christ.
Sort of like being anti... oh...
The poor will always be with you, and homosexuals, adulterers, and baby murderers will not see the kingdom of heaven.
Anybody who has read Matthew or Luke will know what Jesus actually meant.
PING!
It’s highly significant that Jesus is responding to Judas in this passage.
[Jhn 12:3-7 KJV] 3 Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment. 4 Then saith one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon’s [son], which should betray him, 5 Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred pence, and given to the poor? 6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein. 7 Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying hath she kept this.
Obama is directly and explicitly disagreeing with Jesus and agreeing with Judas.
do we have the political will, the communal will to do something about it
Let me translate:
“Empower us to put a gun in the face of those who have anything and give it to others who support us.”
Obama and his wife have twisted the scriptures repeatedly. I first noticed his warped and at times outright blasphemous use of scripture for POLITICAL gain. It bothered when I first heard him speak in 2004 at DNC convention. That speech left me considering him a possible anti-Christ on the rise...and then in the election campaign of 2007-08, little doubt remained.
I do believe he is an anti-Christ as he routinely uses scripture to deceive people. His admonishments regarding the poor are contrary to what his Marxist policies have done to the nation. The malaise and unemployment deceptions betray those not blinded by his lies.
Well, this is a tough one. Who to believe, who to believe....Jesus of Nazareth, (aka God, Saviour, Creator) or Barack Hussein Obama.
Praise Obama from whom all Obamaphones and other vote buying gifts flow. (Sarcasm) But remember the “Obama phone lady” from Cleveland who was doing just that!
Obola, with the help of McConnell and Boehner,
will gladly institute Concentration Camps
to murder the poor, conservatives, and TEA Party.
It is their way.
..Liberation Theology—completely screwing up the meaning of Scripture with a huge dose of Marxism...
On the other hand. Moose Limbs are generous to a fault. Look at all the aid they provided to Nepal.
Godless liberals deny all of the bible so for his ilk this is fine.
There are only two possibilities.
Either there will be rich and poor.
or
Everyone will be poor.
There is no option where there is no poor people, thus they will always be with us.
You’re not going to one up God, the best we can do is to take his direction, we simply do not have a long enough view to know how to do a thing and not have it turn to crap.
This POS is just on roll these last few days.
Look at the standard of living of today's "poor" versus the middle class of Jesus' day. Somebody making minimum wage can buy enough flour to make bread for a family of four, can buy rice, beans, and be able to get meat occasionally. He can have a small apartment that will keep everybody warm in the winter, and buy basic clothing. Such a person would be considered prosperous in Jesus time, but today is labeled "poor".
As long as some have more than others, the ones who have less will be labeled poor.
There will always be a stratum of poor among us. Some deserving of our assistance. And others deserving of their own assistance. The Bible says there are none so poor as they who will not so much as lift the spoon to their own mouth. (Proverbs 19:24) (my paraphrase) Government welfare programs, being unable to distinguish the deserving poor from the undeserving, pervert charity and increase poverty. Obama lies when he says we blame the poor for middle class stagnation. We blame him. The poor as well as the middle class are victims of progressive socialism. They have transformed being poor from having less money into having no family, living in anarchy, and being without hope of a better tomorrow.
