Any Christian that knows the beliefs of Obama should know that he is not truly a Christian. How could a Black liberation theology social gospel &#8220;Christian&#8221; understand that the Church is not under the laws of the Old Testament? He just throws the whole Bible together not understanding the distinctions between the Old Covenant and the New Covenant and then he uses straw-man arguments when real Christians have no such concepts as he suggests.<\/p>\n<p>For him to ask which Christianity is true James Dobson\u2019s or Al Sharpton\u2019s says wonders and is a no brainier? It distinctly shows Obama&#8217;s total ignorance of Christian issues. James Dobson&#8217;s believes mans&#8217;s salvation comes by Grace through faith and his authority is the scriptures. While Al Sharpton&#8217;s Christianity is based on social activism that saves no one. One teaches new Testament Christianity and the other teaches secular socialism and race baiting.<\/p>\n<p>Once again why would a Obama that distorts biblical views know these things? <strong>In spite of what He says He is not a Christian <\/strong>and any Christian deluding theirs elf because they want a &#8220;yes we can&#8221; man and &#8220;change&#8221; artist need to examine themselves to find out if they are in the faith. If elected, Obama will do everything he can to make all believe that there are many paths to God even if he has to do it through hate speech laws.<\/p>\n<p>McCain is not much better. I am still waiting for anyone that can be endorsed by Bible believers. Be it third party or whatever.<\/p>\n<p>Dobson: Obama \u2018Distorting\u2019 Bible, Pushing \u2018Fruitcake Interpretation\u2019 of Constitution &#8211; America\u2019s Election HQ<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cEven if we did have only Christians in our midst, if we expelled every non-Christian from the United States of America, whose Christianity would we teach in the schools?\u201d Obama said. \u201cWould we go with James Dobson\u2019s or Al Sharpton\u2019s?\u201d referring to the civil rights leader.<\/p>\n<p>Dobson took aim at examples Obama cited in asking which Biblical passages should guide public policy &#8211; chapters like Leviticus, which Obama said suggests slavery is OK and eating shellfish is an abomination, or Jesus\u2019 Sermon on the Mount, \u201ca passage that is so radical that it\u2019s doubtful that our own Defense Department would survive its application.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFolks haven\u2019t been reading their Bibles,\u201d Obama said.<\/p>\n<p>Dobson and Minnery accused Obama of wrongly equating Old Testament texts and dietary codes that no longer apply to Jesus\u2019 teachings in the New Testament.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think he\u2019s deliberately distorting the traditional understanding of the Bible to fit his own worldview, his own confused theology,\u201d Dobson said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c\u2026 He is dragging biblical understanding through the gutter.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Dobson reserved some of his harshest criticism for Obama\u2019s argument that the religiously motivated must frame debates over issues like abortion not just in their own religion\u2019s terms but in arguments accessible to all people.<\/p>\n<p>He said Obama, who supports abortion rights, is trying to govern by the \u201clowest common denominator of morality,\u201d labeling it \u201ca fruitcake interpretation of the Constitution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAm 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?\u201d Dobson said. \u201cWhat he\u2019s trying to say here is unless everybody agrees, we have no right to fight for what we believe.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I do not think Obama actually knows the distinctions between the Old Testament codes and the New Covenant reality.
