OBAMA AND FAITH

By: Dan Clements


I read an article on my talk show BACK TO BASIC, about how Barrack Obama told some people at a public library how his faith influences his discussion on global warming.

At an inter faith forum on climate change, Barrack spoke to about 200 religious leaders and other people about how God has entrusted us with the stewardship of the planet. Barrack said “we are not acting as good stewards of God’s earth when our bottom line puts the size of our profits before the future of our planet.” Barrack further stated “but in recent years, science has made it undeniably clear that our generation is not living up to this responsibility. Global warming is not a someday problem, it is now.”

As most of you who have heard my internet radio show knows that I’m a Christian and I believe that the Bible is our only authority when it comes to religious matters.

1Pe 4:10 As each one has received a {special} gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

2Pe 1:3 seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence.

God has given us all we need to live a good life according to his will. Are we to be good stewards of what God gives us? Yes the Bible is clear on this. But the Bible is also clear on lying too. For Barrack Obama to say the science of global warming is conclusive is an outright lie. Barrack needs to repent of this lie and stop lying about global warming.

http://www.heritage.org/Research/EnergyandEnvironment/globalwarming.cfm is a very good insightful news item about global warming from the Heritage foundation and it points out how the alarmists are getting the facts wrong. From listening to the alarmist, they are wrong on purpose, and why? So they can try to advance a certain political agenda. I do not hide my views about the progressive/leftist in our country. The progressive/leftist of our country is where the former socialist and communist of our country are hiding to try to advance their ideas on society and exert control over the masses.

Barrack Obama needs to rethink his stance on lying and using the scriptures to advance a political point of view. Remember politicians tell people what the people want to hear to get elected. God and the Bible tell people what they need to hear whether the people want to hear it or not.

Catholics calling the kettle black?

By: Dan Clements


I’ve been doing a lot of reading and research on Islam and Sharia law, when I came across some interesting acticals published by a Catholic web site http://www.trosch.org/

Catholics believe that the Wisdom of The Lord (truth) is greater than the Muslim Sword commonly used to conquer when they know they will not succeed through teachings. Imams and ayatollahs acquire converts and dominate through fear of the sword rather than by obtaining conversions through truth (apologetics). Islam fears evangelization, Catholics of faith have no such fear.

Um, hello can anybody say Spanish Inquisition? It seems to me that Catholics have real short memories. To claim a moral superiority over Muslims and their actions in the past and now seems laughable in the extreme. Catholics in the past ruled over vast areas of Europe with an iron fist. If you disagree with them you were labeled a heretic and burned. If you died before they could find you, they would dig you up, crush your bones and scatter them.

The first hand-written English language Bible manuscripts were produced in the 1380's AD by John Wycliffe, an Oxford professor, scholar, and theologian. Wycliffe, (also spelled “Wycliff” & “Wyclif”), was well-known throughout Europe for his opposition to the teaching of the organized Church, which he believed to be contrary to the Bible. With the help of his followers, called the Lollards, and his assistant Purvey, and many other faithful scribes, Wycliffe produced dozens of English language manuscript copies of the scriptures. They were translated out of the Latin Vulgate, which was the only source text available to Wycliffe. The Pope was so infuriated by his teachings and his translation of the Bible into English that 44 years after Wycliffe had died, he ordered the bones to be dug-up, crushed, and scattered in the river!

Real swell guy this pope! It seems to me that Catholics need to remember their history a little better than they do.

You find true Christianity in the pages of the New Testament, from an honest study and application of God’s word, not from dictates from on high (the Vatican). And you find true service to God, comes from a willingness to serve God out of love not fear (Islam).
