Obama: Imagine a Kingdom right here on Earth
Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today... I IIII
Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace... you whooo
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world... you whooo
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one

Excerpts:
"At the local primary school, he prayed in thanks to a Catholic saint. In the neighborhood mosque, he bowed to Allah....
"His former Roman Catholic and Muslim teachers, along with two people who were identified by Obamas grade-school teacher as childhood friends, say Obama was registered by his family as a Muslim at both schools he attended.
"That registration meant that during the third and fourth grades, Obama learned about Islam for two hours each week in religion class.
"The childhood friends say Obama sometimes went to Friday prayers at the local mosque.
"In his autobiography, Dreams from My Father, Obama briefly mentions Quranic study and describes his public school, which accepted students of all religions, as a Muslim school.
So now? if we just took the last paragraph - if he does indeed say in his own autobiography "... mentions Quranic study and describes his public school, which accepted students of all religions, as a Muslim school....
Then why is everyone else who says so, branded liars?
Truth will out, the saying goes...and it sounds like has just opened his mouth and out fell the truth of his beliefs - Muslims shall set up and rule the Kingdom "right here on earth" =
Obama Promising the ‘Kingdom of God’ on earth is talking way above his pay grade.
Of course he’s a muzzie. And as a good muzzie, for infiltration purposes and da’wa he joined a “church” that is virulently anti-semitic and anti-white. I’m sure Obamasama weighed joining that “church” and the noi (nation of islam, Calypso Louie’s cult), and opted for the former for political reasons. And, isn’t he on the Senate Intelligence Committee? If he is, he’s privy to all kinds of Top Secret information. It’s shocking what we’ve allowed to happen to America.
He's looking in all the wrong places.
To understand Obama’s statement about a Kingdom on earth, one should know something about Christian theology. Namely, the Premillennialist belief that not until the second coming of Christ, when the King gets here, can the Kingdom of heaven become God’s Kingdom on earth vs the Amillennial belief that one need not wait until Christ gets here, we can have God’s Kingdom right now on earth.
Now the question is, what is his Chicago Pastor’s position on this? Is he Premillennial or Amillennial? One might gather from Obama’s statement that he is merely reflecting the theology of his pastor.
As a Premillennialist, I see the Amillennialist view as dangerous theology. It has spawned such things as Hitler’s 1000 year Third Reich, his version of the 1000 year millennial kingdom in Revelation chapter 20. It, in my opinion, will also be the theological basis for the antichrist kingdom when it arrives.
I might add, there is another view, Postmillennialism, even more dangerous, which might be the view that Obama and his Pastor believe in.
LOL...a mole....
And not even a good one.
The Manchurian Muzzie
Yes, that is a pretty sick and twisted 'core value' of a church that is claiming Christ as its head.
Christ is the center of our focus, as we are all sinners in desperate need of a Saviour. We all come as we are - whatever skin color, tongues, nationality, education, economic scale, or what have you, to the only one who can Save.
Twisting that focus to exult ethnic or national background is disgusting.
