Obama Mocks and Attacks Jesus Christ
And The Bible. A top U.S. evangelical leader is accusing Sen. Barack
Obama of deliberately distorting the Bible and taking a "fruitcake
interpretation" of the U.S. Constitution. In comments aired on his radio
show, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson criticized the
Democratic presidential nominee for comments he made in a June 2006
speech to the liberal Christian group Call to Renewal. In the speech,
Obama suggested that it would be impractical to govern based solely on
the word of the Bible, noting that some passages suggest slavery is
permissible and eating shellfish is disgraceful. "Which passages of
scripture should guide our public policy?" Obama asked in the speech.
"Should we go with Leviticus, which suggests slavery is OK and that
eating shellfish is an abomination? Or we could go with Deuteronomy,
which suggests stoning your child if he strays from the faith? Or should
we just stick to the Sermon on the Mount? "So before we get carried
away, let's read our Bible now," Obama said, to cheers. "Folks haven't
been reading their Bible." He also called Jesus' Sermon on the Mount "a
passage that is so radical that it's doubtful that our Defense
Department would survive its application." Dobson said Obama should not
be referencing antiquated dietary codes and passages from the Old
Testament that are no longer relevant to the teachings of the New
Testament.
"I think he's deliberately distorting the traditional
understanding of the Bible to fit his own world view, his own confused
theology," Dobson said, adding that Obama is "dragging biblical
understanding through the gutter." Dobson said the suggestion is an
attempt to lead by the "lowest common denominator of morality." "Am I
required in a democracy to conform my efforts in the political arena to
his bloody notion of what is right with regard to the lives of tiny
babies?" he asked. "What he's trying to say here is, unless everybody
agrees, we have no right to fight for what we believe." "What the
senator is saying there, in essence, is that 'I can't seek to pass
legislation, for example, that bans partial-birth abortion, because
there are people in the culture who don't see that as a moral issue,' "
Dobson said. "And if I can't get everyone to agree with me, than it is
undemocratic to try to pass legislation that I find offensive to the
Scripture.
Now, that is a fruitcake interpretation of the Constitution."
In a stunning display of ignorance- and in a speech you will NOT see in
the mainstream media, because even they apparently understand how
ignorant Obama was on the issue, Obama exposes his disdain for
Christians, and exposes his disdain for the word of God, by taking the
typical, petty, ignorant position, that the bible advocated slavery and
the stoning of children, apparently implying that Christians should live
their faith by reinstating customs that were obviously secular laws
that were in place in a time long ago. Obama not so subtly implied that
Christians are hypocrites because they dont agree to put themselves back
under the laws of Moses that are no logner relevent to Christians
today! The laws of Moses were a Jewish-only set of laws. Barack Obama
claims he found the Lord, whatever that means to him, but his obvious
contempt for Gods word exposes the fact that Christ is not the one in
control of his heart.
His speech was a blatant misrepresentation of
Christianity, and it was a speech whos intent was to malign and
denigrate Christians, and to denigrate this great nation of ours.
Stoning children for blatant disrespect of parents and of God, was a
Jewish-only commandment meant to purge evil from among Gods elected
people. Nowhere in the bible does God command anyone other than His own
elected people, the Jews, to purge evil in such a manner. Barack Obama
however is apparently too ignorant of biblical truth to realize this
fact, and apparently he feels that he is big enough to call Gods
commandments toward the Jews into question?
Obama is also apparently too
ignorant of Gods word to understand that Christians today are not under
the law of Moses, and that many edicts in the bible were meant to tell
the people that they needed to obey ALL laws, even the secular laws
which included laws that allowed slaves, and that the Jews were not just
bound to the laws that God instated, but also to the cultural laws at
that time. Obama may not like that- because it completely refutes his
petty attempt at maligning God, Gods word, Christians and htis great
nation of ours. Obama may claim to be a Christian, and he may even
succeed in fooling a couple of people, but to those who know better, we
see very clearly that his words betray what he claims his heart stands
for.
