Obama's Religion Part 2
Saturday, June 16, 2012 at 08:23AM 
In my last blog, Obama's Religion, I explained the new religion that is taking American churches by storm. That new religion is articulated and exalted by no less than President Obama himself.
The religion adheres to the following belief: "Yes, Jesus is my Savior, but He's not the only one. Other religions are equally valid and accepted by God. Christianity is one way to God, but not the only way."
An even greater travesty is that so many well-meaning Christians are buying into that preposterous belief.
Why do I call it preposterous? Because it's equivalent to believing 2 + 2 = 5. That would certainly be a preposterous mathematical belief, but it's the same type of argument that adherents of the new religion follow.
They believe that 2 + 2 = 5, and who are you to tell them that they're wrong? Another person can choose to believe that 2 + 2 = 3. The President of the United States can choose to believe that it equals 100.
Most people would say, "Wait a minute. I know it's a mathematical fact that 2 + 2 = 4. And my opinion or the opinion of the President of the United States doesn't matter."
But the new religion adherents would say, "You have your truth, I have my truth, and someone else may have another. But all paths ultimately lead to the correct answer. To say that 2 + 2 = 4 is narrow-minded and intolerant of others' opinions. We must insist that everyone is entitled to his or her opinion."
Well, try paying your bills that way. Or, horror of horrors, filling out your tax returns that way. Then you'll discover how intolerant the IRS can be.
As a worshipper of Jesus Christ as the only way to God, I love everyone regardless of their opinions, ethnicity, language, and so forth. Jesus requires no less of me. I respect all my non-Christian friends and value them as men and women created in God's image.
But that is very different from saying other religions are as valid as faith in Jesus Christ. Jesus said as much when he claimed, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6). I consider myself as familiar with other religions as anyone can be, and I've never read or heard any of them claim that salvation is through them alone.
But America's new religion that many churches promote disavows Jesus' own words by claiming that you can fill your spiritual gas tank with any liquid and still get where you need to go.
Can you see how wrong, and even dangerous, that can be? For one thing, it creates confusion in the minds of the young and uninformed. But it also creates a vacuum that aggressive and violent ideologies can fill.
History has proven that to be true. Until the middle of the seventh century, northern Africa had a majority Christian population. But then some people began teaching a form of tolerance called Montanism. That view created a vacuum in the minds and hearts of the people, which made it easy for Islamic invaders from Arabia to destroy Christianity in that part of the world.
That is why faithful believers in Jesus Christ must not be lured into falsehoods and become party to the destruction of the Christian faith in our country.
We must lovingly and firmly say, "2 + 2 = 4. Therefore, when Jesus said, 'No one comes to the Father except through me,' there can be no dispute."

God rescued us by sending His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins (1 John 4:9-10). Jesus was fully human and fully divine (John 1:1, 18), a truth that ensures His understanding of our weaknesses, His power to forgive, and His ability to bridge the gap between God and us (Romans 5:6-11). In short, we are “justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus” (Romans 3:24).
You would be a complete idiot not to see who has control of oil prices in America. When the President began his re-election campaign, the price of gas miraculously started dropping and will continue to drop. Illegal immigrants in this country will not be allowed a work permit in time to vote for the President...otherwise, if he really believed in legalizing illegal immigrants, he would have done it the first year he was in office. The Executive (President) branch which is equal with the Legislative branch (congress) and equal with the Justice department, has taken over their jobs and making all the decisions about States' rights. He would like to change the US Constitution and Bill of Rights and put all power into the hands of what they consider themselves to be" The Elite". No rules or laws apply to them....only to the rest of us.
When any country has adopted the lifestyle of Sodom and Gomorrah, it has been destroyed. Christians MUST get involved and speak out. Individuals can speak out for Biblical and Constitutional truths inside of our schools and our churches. The Muslims are having no problem exercising all of OUR rights. Our schools even provide foot baths for them. And even though the Bible says to wash one anothers feet, you can be sure Christian students would not be allowed to do this in school. Check it out. Many of our secondary schools and State universities supported by the taxpayers have installed foot baths and prayer rooms for Muslim students of Islamic faith. The Federal Government will not say ONE word about the separation of church and state in those cases...only if it involves Christians. Michael Y. is one of the few ministers of the gospel who has been warning us. We had better listen.
Dr. Youseff has compared God to a math problem only to prove a point, and that is that there is only 1 way to Jesus, just like there is no way 2 plus any other number equals 4.
The thinking that there is more than one way to heaven is in direct contradiction to several verses in the Bible, such as John 14:6: “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." That does not seem to me to leave much room for other religions and Jesus-alternatives.
And, religion is not based totally on faith. If we have no facts or reasons to believe Christianity, then there is no purpose in believing it. There is so much truth and fact in Christianity that one needs only the "faith of a mustard seed" to be saved and used mightily for God.
Obama is a person who has accepted Jesus as their moral teacher. The spiritual vacuum created by not also accepting Christ as Lord is filled with a belief that government is the answer to our problems. That is Obama's ideology. It is up to government to provide for us not God.
Israel did the same thing when they demanded a King and rejected the Lord. Jesus also said that when we try to sweep the dirt out without filling the house with the holy spirit we will end up worse off than before.
“When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that man is worse than the first.”
THIS STINKS CAUSE I AM WONDERING IF ANYONE HAS HEARD OF THIS FIGURE WHO IS LITERALLY ATTRACTING PPL BY THE THOUSANDS - MAITREYA (His website - www.shareintl.org)
********************???? WHAT DO YOU THINK ????***************************
Maitreya the World Teacher steps forward
Maitreya, the World Teacher, has been based in the Asian community of London since July 1977, gradually emerging into full public view.
Artist, author and lecturer Benjamin Creme has for over 35 years been preparing the way for this extraordinary event.
In December 2008 Benjamin Creme announced that in the very near future a large, bright star would appear in the sky visible throughout the world, night and day, heralding the imminent appearance of Maitreya in His first interview on a major US television programme.
Within weeks reports from all over the world of an unusually bright star, often moving and changing colour, began to appear in the media and on YouTube
On 14 January 2010 Benjamin Creme announced that Maitreya had given His first interview, on American television, and that millions had heard Him speak both on television and the internet.
Benjamin Creme explained: “He was introduced not as Maitreya, the World Teacher and Head of our Spiritual Hierarchy, but simply as a man, one of us. In this way He ‘ensures that men follow and support Him for the truth and sanity of His ideas rather than for His status’. He spoke earnestly of the need for peace, achievable only through the creation of justice and the sharing of the world’s resources.”
Share International gave this reason for why he did not introduce himself as the Maitreya, “He was introduced not as Maitreya, the World Teacher and Head of our Spiritual Hierarchy, but simply as a man, one of us. In this way He ‘ensures that men follow and support Him for the truth and sanity of His ideas rather than for His status’.
If the Antichrist wanted to be like Christ than I suppose, like Christ, he would not just come out and say "I am the Christ".
There was a news story done about him in the 1980's when he supposedly physically appeared in the middle of a crowd in Africa and gave a blessing on them. The people there thought that he was Jesus.
Here is the link where you can view it and see what he looks like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4vHv3zys6E
I would almost be very surprised if Michael Youssef has not heard about all of this.
Either this Maitreya guy does not exist and we are being fed lies to think he is real
or he does exist and we will see him in the future. I wouldn't doubt it if he was not real but some in high places of power are trying to fool us into thinking that he is real....either way, makes for a good discussion :)
Actually, many of these comments seem like simply half baked ideas -- talking points taken out of context from news sources or blogs.
Any honest reading of history will show you that the world is more complicated than you'd like it to be, that people of many faiths have committed atrocities against one another (Christians included, lest you've forgotten the Crusades), and that among Jesus' other teachings was to "love thy neighbor as thyself." These are just some of my initial observations in reading the comment string.
Here's some advice: read up on your history. Learn about your neighbors of all faiths. We are a brotherhood of man, spanning languages, cultures, continents, and yes, religions.
Christianity is -- well, it can be -- a beautiful religion and faith system. It helps explain purpose in life, aspiration to do good things and follow in the footsteps of God's son Jesus. But Christianity can also turn people -- many of whom have commented here -- into spiteful, angry, unloving creatures. What kind of legacy do you want to leave our future generations? Before you strike down people of other faiths and cultures, take a hard look in the mirror.
Maybe the problem is...you?
Christianity doesn't turn people ( and I love this when people point to other things as reason for their faults) When are people going to look in the real mirror which is God's word and realize WE have been screwing things up since the beginning and it contiuously and progressively gets worse!! Why do you think we have all those religions in the first place? And then you throw in unwarrented emotions and phsycological make ups of people and you have this garbage we have today!! "Brotherhood of man?" Really? Sounds like to me you would rather listen to man and not the Creator. He clearly states to not do that. Jesus does say He is the way period. Throughout the New testament He clearly states that and throughout the old testement God clearly points to Himself and His Son coming to save us cause we can't do it without Him! Most "religions" are based off the same words just altered to fit our own sinful ways of pride, greed, and so on.
You use " love thy neighbor as thyself" right? Let me ask you this. What does love consist of? What is God's love? Any idea? So your post is a bash on christians and that we are spiteful and angry and "unevolving creatures" The last time I looked christians are sinful humanbeings that make mistakes and I would imagine just like you unless............well unless you evolved into this mindless, loveless emoitionless creature that never gets angry or is sinful in anyway right? Before you go supporting all "religions" ( which by the way Jesus hated religion) you better look up their statement of faiths and make sure you agree with everything they say or unless oh ya everything goes in your mentality. So I guess with you 2+2 does equal 5........or is it 3...........maybe it's 666 with you...
Here's some "advice" for you seth. Before you go pointing out what other people are doing wrong you need to look up history.......or just simply open your eyes and look around you. I have read up and looked over a tremendous amount of time other religions and cultures and I find one common denominater all over the world! We continuously screw things up and have to create FALSE gods and insist on being right and sin, and sin and oh yeah sin somemore and we need Jesus cause He came, which if you need to look it up from other countrys history books to see if He in fact was here teaching go ahead, to wash us clean from our sins and be our way to God the Father and after doing a careful assessment of people and myself using the mirror, that would be God's word, lead me to Jesus!! Praise God!!!
I personally went from Salvation/Lordship ignorance, to fear of truth for decades. Not until I started giving away MY beliefs, MY misunderstandings, MYhurts, MY habits, and MY hangups, and turned over MY life to He who is greater than me...
