(CNSNews.com) - 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.
... And for me, and Im sure for some of you, its 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.
The Christian faith teaches that Jesus is the only Son of God.

What has happened to Christianity in America in the last 50 years?
WE DO NOT KNOW THE WORD OF GOD!
We could! I would challenge every man and woman in the USA to just read (better yet memorize):
John Chapter one
John chapter three
Romans chapter eight
Hebrews chapters one and two
First John chapter one
First John chapter five
I’m working on it and I just turned 78 last month.
Or better yet, have a Bible on hand for reference.
well to be fair, we become children of God by becoming one in Christ, we are not born as children of God..
It sounds muslim to me..Mohamms so called vision was that mankind as individuals can rise to the reality of God, the problem is to God is that he sent his only begotten son to save us, the muslim attitude of deliverance without Christ is salt in the wounds of Jesus...God loves his Son..he has held back his hand until the last soul who is to come home in this age has readied and confessed Christ as Savior , after that it is historical fact that God destroys the chaff and saves the wheat, he will destroy anything that gets between him and Christ, he has said Christ is the only worthy one..what he says creates...peace in Christ..
Even better yet, you will have the Bible on hand if you are reading and memorizing it. (Psalm 150:6)
And you will have several on hand, in your pocket, or purse, car etc.
“Wherewithal[How]shall a young[and old] man [or woman] cleanse their ways? By taking thereto according to Thy word. With my whole heart have I sought Thee: Oh let me not wander from Thy commandments. Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee.” (Psalm 119:9-11)
PS many have God’s Word on hand and do not even read it, much less hide it in their hearts!
Aaaand I don't believe Obama to be a Christian. Instead, he is a demon in sheep's clothing.
LOL
LOL!
How about Jerry, Justin, JOhn Jacob Jingleheimer and Jimmy?
**we become children of God by becoming one in Christ**
through Baptism
Baptism comes in many forms depending on your walk with the Lord and level of sincerity..
Those who know Christ is their life literally know they have been baptized with fire and the holy spirit as all things are one in Him by design, however..it is not a formal ritual.. the last supper was an excellent example, many think he was only speaking of the cross, this is my body which is broken for you etc..., that viewpoint is true, however, I believe he was also speaking about the physical realm whether it be eternal or not is literally His body..so in that discussion we begin to see the other side of many of His words, ie you can’t hate your brother and love God, why is that? Because the life in all things is God, what you do to these children you do to me..again another reference to the one concept...
I believe Christ highest prayer for those of us that believe in Him was when he said Father make them one in me as I am one in you..that places us directly with God through Him...
ok I am rambling...
One cannot be a true Christian if he denies the divinity of God’s “only begotten son”. Obama’s choice of words casts more suspicions on him.
Every time he speaks it sounds like muslim misspeak....he can’t fake it too well!!
What a phony. He reeks Islam.
His Ramadan message was warm, sincere and heartfelt.
His Christmas and Easter messages are wooden and rehearsed.
If he is a Christian, I’m a Martian.
“But that’s the thing. Muslims don’t believe He is Son of God at all, since Issa al Masih was only one of the 25 prophets. A very important one, but nothing but a prophet. Mormons believe He is a Son of God. Hence my post.”
Many years ago when some Arab friends were working hard to convert me to Islam, they were emphatic that Jesus was not a son of God, but that Mary was a virgin. When I asked who was the father they just looked puzzled and moved the conversation along to another topic.
Good times. We used to drink a lot of beer together during those sessions. I did not appreciate the irony at the time.
For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.
Obama is a son of a *beep*
Who would have thought Obama would be the first Mormon President?!?
