FALSANI:
Who’s Jesus to you?
(He laughs nervously)
OBAMA:
Right.
Jesus is an historical figure for me, and he’s also a bridge between God and man, in the Christian faith, and one that I think is powerful precisely because he serves as that means of us reaching something higher.
And he’s also a wonderful teacher. I think it’s important for all of us, of whatever faith, to have teachers in the flesh and also teachers in history.
FALSANI:
I am guessing the quotes you presented in post #2 were from the Obama interview with Cathleen Falsani in 2008.

Christ said: "By their fruits shall you know them." (Matthew 7:16).
He also said: "Blessed is he who is not ashamed of me." (Matthew 11:6)
Obama, on numerous occasions, has mocked Christ, mocked the Scriptures, and mocked those who believe.
I don't agree with Bono about everything he has ever said or done, but I found his affirmative, short, and to the point answers to the interviewer's questions courageous and refreshing. I firmly believe I will see Bono in the Kingdom.
Too bad you didn’t watch the video.
Bono confessed his belief in the messiah, the son of God, and being God himself, as much as the Father.

1. I see Jesus as . . .
2. Christian faith sees Him as . . .
“And hes also a wonderful teacher.”
Usually when I see someone who calls Jesus a “wonderful teacher” or something along those lines, it means they don’t believe he was really the son of God.
