Barack Obama Invokes Faith Only When It's of Political Advantage

What Obama claims in his words do not match his deeds. His actions directly contradict the values of the Bible of his reputed Christian faith.

In other words, the actions and fruits of faith do not demonstrate a biblical worldview consistent with his reputed Christian faith.

In summary, he is the straw man being used to destroy the biblical pinnings of our nation from within.

Dear President,

With all do respect. Shut up and write the check. If it is morally right for you to pay more, shut up and write the check.

If you choose for yourself to "shut up and write the check then you receive grace as you did this by your own free will. If you coerce, demand, and bully me to write a check, I receive no grace as it becomes a requirement. You rob my money and you rob me from the opportunity of giving my money for God's work. You would let a newborn child die on a table without care, I hardly leave it up to you to make moral decisions for me!

With all do respect. Shut up and write you own check. Better yet, let all those you think higher taxes and abortion are good, follow your lead and write the checks. Until you do so, leave me alone, and stop your war on the unborn, and religious liberty.

Finally, for what it is worth to you, the unborn don't have a voice either as you so arrogantly proclaimed during your pontification during the National Day of Prayer.

Hands of my religious liberty, and hands of my money.

Signed,

Clinging to my religions, guns, and money in TX

PS-- Nice job accepting the superpac money(oops that my come across as hypocritical.)

I love the title of this article! On the other hand, Republicans invoke faith every chance they get to make their faux believers think that somehow they are motivated by God and the Bible. What a joke!

Those who keep the "Fear of the Lord" in their hearts may want to read the letter from Bishop Jamie Soto of the Diosese of Sacramento, Ca., defining "Obamacare's" demands:

Guess what, folks! ....this concerns our basic First Amendment Rights guaranteed by our U.S. Constitution as well as those concerns of ALL congregational faiths, not just those of the Catholic Church!!

This is the same letter referencing the "Army Silences Catholic Chaplains"

Feb 6, 2012

The Obama administration has been accused of telling Catholic military chaplains what they can and cannot say from their pulpits after the Army ordered Catholic chaplains not to read a letter to parishioners from their archbishop.

The Secretary of the Army feared the letter could be viewed as a call for civil disobedience.

O-M-G!!!

....we NEED to get this true Devil OUT OF OUR WHITE HOUSE, A-S-A-P!!

Dear Commentors - love your 'true' Christian words - like you are an authority or have any idea of what Jesus words intended - how arrogant. perhaps you should study a bit more and embrace the fact that you are not a Christian just yet...

Also, I thought there was a thing about 'not judging others'...

try to open your mind - god is too big to fit into one religion...especially one that bases its tenements in politics.

Jesus's words were meant for the individual who has free will to give as they so choose. In that way it is a personal choice and one gives from the heart. Jesus did not mean to empower government to tax people and spend the money on programs polititians deem correct. Obama is misusing Jesus's words to misguide people into believing that God supports his tax plan.

Please , don't tell me you've just now figured this out . Does he do anything that is not for a political advantage ?

You are right, Mary Kate.

Let us review Obama's "religious" past and influences:

President Obama's father and stepfather were Muslims, and his mother is someone who twice chose to marry Muslims. President Obama spent part of his childhood in Indonesia, the world's largest Islamic nation and even attended a public Islamic school.

Until 2008, President Obama was a member of a church pastored by Jeremiah Wright Jr., a "christian" pastor who holds the radical Islamic leader, Louis Farrakhan in high esteem. In 1984, Wright accompanied Farrakhan to visit Libya's Muammar Quadaffi. In 2007, Wright honored Farrakhan with a gala event at his church, conferring upon him the modestly named "Reverend Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Lifetime Achievement Trumpeteer" award.

How close are President Obama's values to those of his mother, who twice chose Muslim husbands and to those of Wright, who honors a radical Muslim, who by definition denies the deity of Christ?

In 2006, Barack Obama told Oprah Winfrey, "When I think about the values I hold most dear, they came from my mother." As for Jeremiah Wright, he married Barack and Michelle Obama and baptized their children. Until Wright became a political liability in 2008, Barack Obama called him his pastor and mentor.

So, Obama calls himself a "Christian"??

....quite laughable, indeed!!!

Really? You mean to imply that Obama sat in the Reverend Wright's racist, American hating "church" for 20 years listening to hybrid Christian/Muslim, Afro-Centrist diatribes against Jews and whites simply for political advantage?

I find that hard to believe. No... No, I think he was really sold on those sermons - at least until he figured he might lose votes if he didn't disavow Wright and Farrakhan.

So, in the final analysis perhaps we do agree.

Would really expect anything else from an egocentric, huckstering, smug Progressive - who sat in the Racist Reverend Wright's "church" for 20 years - listening to Wright's, Afro-Centric, Christian/Muslim hybrid, America hating diatribes ?

No... I thought not.
