Speaking to a group of Christian clergy at the Easter Prayer Breakfast he hosted at the White House on Wednesday, President Barack Obama referred to Jesus Christ as “a son of God.”
“It’s an opportunity for us to reflect on the triumph of the resurrection, and to give thanks for the all-important gift of grace,” Obama said of Easter, which is this Sunday. “And for me, and I’m sure for some of you, it’s also a chance to remember the tremendous sacrifice that led up to that day, and all that Christ endured--not just as a Son of God, but as a human being.”

1 John 2:21 - I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. 22 Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. 23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also.
They won't touch that concept. It's specifically what they are against.
Exactly as I would expect a covert muslim to describe Christ.
There are no words to describe Obama’s evilness.
Great point!
Ah yes, his Oprah religion is showing in that statement.
Having tried to share the gospel with Muslims...I definitely agree with you!

I can’t imagine why only 34% of Americans can correctly identify Obama’s religion as Christian. The media have told us hundreds of times that “Christian” is the answer we are supposed to believe. It’s almost like real Americans no longer trust MSNBC.
Is he invoking the (Oprah) many paths to God theology?
He is after all a major biblical scholar as he just reminded us of the verse from the New Testament book of “What’sHappenNow” about not throwing stones at glass houses.
He’s as good on the Bible as he’s on the Constitution.
There are “sons of God” in the Old Testament, mainly the Angels, except for Adam, who is also referred to as a son of God. In the New Testament, we (as Christians) are referred to as sons of God.
Jesus, on the other hand is the Messiah of Israel (hence the term “Christ”) and ... in his divinity, he is also the only begotten Son of God, one of the Triune Godhead.
Christian faith holds that Jesus was/is ‘the’ son of God, of course, not just ‘a’ son of God.
Jesus was “a” son of God (in the sense that we all are), ok.....
but Obama clearly is not.
He is the son of another....
John 8:44 -— Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.
There is only “THE” not “A”. Since it is a muslim or muslim sympathizer, no surprise here at all, just disgust and outrage from normal people. The libs will love him to no end.
...”not just as a Son of God, but as a human being”...
Bo has zip zero understanding of who God is. His words play into the New Spiritual movements that we can all become little Gods.
I can’t wait til this ‘fraud’ and ‘imposter’ is out of Washington!
To my way of thinking those that are the arrogant manipulators of this tool known as Obama, and the offensive towards what we call the Leftist agenda are of such false confidence in their perspectives, thus their will because of camaraderie in resources that promote such arrogance.
Those resources aren’t necessarily of this sovereignty, therefore there is treason as well as foreign aggression involved.
Wake up to that America. The enemy foreign, and domestic is within our borders, in our government, and winning.
Zero blows it once again.
Muslims worship a dead guy in a box somewhere out in the desert. Where he/it belongs - pork barbeques unto him
Yes there’s one. Liberal. Goes back to the original liberal. they share much in common.
That is exactly how I take it.
Underneath that many paths to god theory is the ago old paganism packaged as “New Age Religion.” Ultimately the path is to enlightenment where you discover all is god — including you.
I hate even typing that.
