It makes me cringe to hear him using Scripture. He is a political opportunist - and the whole of Scripture does not back his candidacy.
Here's a few Scriptures for you John:
Proverbs 12:19
The lip of truth shall be established for ever: but a lying tongue is but for a moment.
Proverbs 17:20
A man of perverse heart does not prosper; he whose tongue is deceitful falls into trouble.
Psalm 119:113
I hate double-minded men, but I love your law.
Proverbs 14:9
Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.
Jude 1
17 But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
18 How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
19 These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
Galatians 6:7
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
The word "Lord" coming out of Kerry's mouth is very unnatural.
Kerry quoting scripture makes me cringe also!!!
"Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves.
You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they?
So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit.
A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit.
Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
So then, you will know them by their fruits.
Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter."
Matthew 7:15-21
The antithesis of the Bible can be seen in what John Dewey wrote in the Humanist Manifesto I (a set of beliefs based on man trying to be autonomous from God and making himslef his own god.) "No deity will save us, we must save ourselves". Nearly all of Kerry positions mirror those expressed in the Humnanist Manifesto I & II.
Kerry's tree clearly does not produce good fruit. A large part of his campaign is based on trying to make me covet anothers property because they earn more money then I do. He told us in the second debate that he will use my tax dollars to dismember innocent babies. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
