Obama Shocks America
January 21, 2009
Barack
Obama has shocked millions of Americans by asking homosexual "ministers" to pray for America. Yet most Americans
don't believe a homosexual is a minister of Christ, as the Bible shows homosexuality is sin - like
adultery and lying. George Washington, John Jay, John Adams and Abraham Lincoln would be outraged at this disregard to
God.
George Washington was known to
say "fear God" to people he came across. He also said, "It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible."
Looking at the United States Supreme Court, America's first Chief Justice John
Jay urged "our Christian nation to select and
prefer Christians for their rulers." John Jay freely declared America a Christian nation.
Abraham Lincoln confirmed America
was to follow God. Lincoln said, "All the good the Savior gave to the world was communicated through this Book [the Bible]. But for it we
could not know right from wrong.”
So, America is shocked Obama chose Gene Robinson, a homosexual, to pray. Obama
had known Robinson left his wife and children for a man. This is not God's plan or godly. When "praying", Robinson
opened with, “O God of our many understandings…”, instead of a prayer to our Father. This unrespect also
shocked millions of Americans. Why
is Barack Obama contradicting the Bible (Romans 1:21-32, Exodus 3:20 etc…) and the best interests of
America's founders? There is quite a difference between Abraham Lincoln and Barack Obama, especially when one looks at
morals.
Obama had Robinson’s “prayer” replayed
at Obama’s “inauguration ceremony” as further support by Obama. News reports show that Obama has had talks
with Robinson after Obama left the controversial Rev. Wright. Many
Christians believe this is an example of what Paul says in 1 Corinthians 11:13-15. Paul warns, “For such are false
apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed
into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness;
whose end shall be according to their works.”
Our founders wanted America to
follow and honor God. They declared days of fasting to seek God and reading the Bible. Once again today, it is important
for every Christian to pray and ask God for a righteous nation that follows Him instead of a nation that disobeys
Him. If we ask God to fill America with Himself, He will, but God needs each person to pray and welcome Him.
Many are concerned Obama has not shown shame for supporting what the Bible says is sin. A
good prayer for Amerca is for the United States government to be convicted of their sin and to desire to do what God
says is right. This is required for God to bless America.
In
Deuteronomy 28, God is clear that those who obey Him will be blessed and those who disobey Him will be cursed.
