A black Christian Obama voter called me after the election. For years, I have informed him of Obama's attacks on Christianity and anti-Christian agenda. He praised Romney for saying in his concession speech that we need to pray for our president. Then he added, “I prayed that God will bind everything in Obama that is not like Him.”
Folks I politely, but quickly, ended our conversation. I was sickened by my friend's weak attempt to cover his sell-out to skin-color under a shroud of Christian principles.
This guy had the audacity to quote Bible scripture about how Christians are commanded to pray for their political leaders. Maybe he's praying that God will cause Obama to have a change of heart as more black babies are exterminated. What a religious crock of you-know-what.
Passing on an opportunity to end Obama's anti-Christian agenda solely because he is black like you is a Judas betrayal.
Before the election I told a black Christian minister friend that Obama was pro-abortion and pro-infanticide. I told him that 40 Catholic groups were suing the Administration for forcing them to fund abortion services in Obamacare. I told him that not only does Obama support gay marriage, but Obama vowed to be an advocate of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities.
My friend did not dispute one of my facts. He simply said Romney's plan would bankrupt our economy and that he was voting for Obama, the lesser of two evils. Keep in mind, folks, that this guy claims to be a man of God. And yet he is in essence saying the murder of innocent babies and the furthering of the homosexual agenda are acceptable collateral damage. His shameful logic is BS to hide his racism and idolatry of skin color.
This same black minister friend called me after the election. I did not take his call.

A Liberal is first a Liberal . . . always.
There was/is “idol worship” for Obama. Remember 2008? The magazine covers with the halos? The fainting fans? The mesmerized countenances at his rallies?
I’m praying for my political leaders though I do not think it would be a good idea to say exactly what it is I pray cause I do not care to get a visit from our homeland security goons.
Like Rush always has said, “Liberals are always liberals first, and everything else second.”
Life Amidst the Postmodern Ruins
http://onecosmos.blogspot.com/2007/11/life-amidst-postmodern-ruins.html
“... I was very impressed with how Chesterton, although writing in 1907, had already diagnosed the pathologies of the left. In fact, his ideas mirror exactly what Polanyi wrote some 50 years later about the “moral inversion” of the left, i.e., the dangerous combination of radical skepticism and an unhinged, ruthless moral perfectionism unbound from tradition.
Chesteron writes of the socialist that although he may have a “large and generous heart,” it is “not a heart in the right place.” And only a human being can have a heart dangerously set in the wrong location. It generally occurs “when a religious scheme is shattered” as a result of their intense skepticism. When this happens, “it is not merely the vices that are let loose.” Rather, “the virtues are let loose also; and the virtues wander more wildly, and the virtues do more terrible damage.” Just because someone has a moral code, it hardly means that they are moral.
I have written a number of posts on the dynamics of this pathological process, which I thought that Polanyi had been the first to recognize. But Chesterton also writes of how “the modern world is full of the old Christian virtues gone mad. The virtues have gone mad because they have been isolated from each other and are wandering alone.”
Most every destructive policy put into place by the left can be traced to some Christian virtue gone mad i.e., feed the hungry, so steal from “the rich” and call it “giving,” or defending abortion on the basis of the sanctity of “liberty,” or encouraging every manner of deviancy under the guise of “tolerance.” [snip - continue reading at above link]

Belief in Disbelief, or Inside the Postmodern Skeptic Tank
http://onecosmos.blogspot.com/2007/11/belief-in-disbelief-or-inside.html
“[T]he new rebel is a skeptic, and will not entirely trust anything.... And the fact that he doubts everything really gets in the way when he wants to denounce anything. For denunciation implies a moral doctrine of some kind; and the modern revolutionist doubts not only the institution he denounces, but the doctrine by which he denounces it.... In his book on politics he attacks men for trampling on morality; in his book on ethics he attacks morality for trampling on men. ~ G.K. Chesterton [snip - continue reading at above link]
Excellent post. Also in the book of Numbers, where the people are told they are going to get so much free meat it is going to come out of the noses. I am in Isaiah 31 right now, and seeing that anyone who does not turn from the lusty power and seduction of “free stuff” at the hands of a man made King, is going to suffer. The message is clear to me. The word of God is pretty clear that we are now in the season past the harvest. We are on the thrashing floor.
This is my prayer:
"May God return the evil they have imagined against us back on their own heads."

"....if we could somehow eliminate envy from the human genome, there would be almost no reason for the left to exist. They would instantly lose that which animates them, for example, envy masquerading as justice or economic theory. In order to be happy, we must all keep our envy in check, because envy is the opposite of gratitude. Envy does not appreciate what one has, only what one doesn't have. And our capacity to imagine what we do not have--and that someone else is enjoying it--is literally infinite, as is envy. .." HERE
Hey that is good stuff. Thanks for the links.
When Obotulism was elected in 2008 I prayed hard about this and the Holy Spirit led me to read Jeremiah 17 on Election Night:
http://bible.oremus.org/?passage=Jeremiah+17
Verses 5-13 really stuck out and they have been proven true for these last four years. This time He had me read Ezekiel 7 on election eve plus all of those passages from Hebrews in post#5 a few weeks before the election. This country is going to get hit like never before especially because I believe without a shadow of a doubt that this election was stolen and God’s will thwarted. People that do that pay a terrible price.
http://bible.oremus.org/?passage=Ezekiel+7
You’re welcome! bttt
God's will is NEVER thwarted. It was your will that was thwarted. God works in mysterious ways - WAAAAAAAAAAAY over our heads.
No God’s will does get thwarted or a better word is “delayed” sometimes by man at least temporarily but you are right it eventually works itself out in the end. We are not out of this thing by far yet.
Excellent. Thank you so much for sharing. The Lord has led me to the same place. I have been in Jeremiah, called back there, for a few months. I have been captivated by the prophecy since Sandy hit. I have seen the words jump off the page at me and show such grace. . I am not kidding that I was just reading again, and then seeking Ezekiel, after the lesson about dung- about half an hour ago!!!
The book of Jeremiah has been key to my faith, for about 4 years now. Remembering Jeremiah actually saved my life 5 years ago (when I was pregnant and very sick), telling me not to worry that there were great things to come.
When I start to get really depressed about the state of our freedoms, I pull out my Bible and pray. So really, thanks for telling me. Cool. I am inspired.
Blessed be the name of the Lord.
Confirming things through the mouths of 2 or 3 witnesses. ;-)
<><
So it is written, so shall it be done!
Exactly. Amen.
I want to share with you what I learned today, that the battle has already been won. (I keep forgetting this and sliding into despair.) Our freedoms are not really at stake.
We are more than conquerors.
If you slide into despair, like I do, on occasion, let this rest upon you and bring you rest from any burden:
John 16:33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
God bless you.
I pray that God gives our leaders everything they deserve; good, hard, and fast.
“NOW can we FINALLY stop saying Blacks are really conservatives?”
Yes, we can put that nonsense to rest; I’ll let their family statistics demonstrate their “Christianity” and values (almost non-existent).
1. If 93% of whites had voted for Romney, the MSM would never relent its claims of whites exercising "racism"; yet, when blacks vote almost monolythically, no such claim emerges from the MSM.
2. On the other hand, were I black -- I wouldn't vote for Romney, either.
I mean c'mon...Here Romney was at age 31...and he still belonged to an org (where he eventually gave $millions) that disallowed blacks from getting married in their temples...that disallowed blacks from being part of a "priesthood" that they allow 12 yo white boys to hold.
Of course, I'm speaking of the Mormon church.
Blame the GoP-e for simply refusing to acknowledge that Romney was THE worst choice to run vs. a minority...hands down!
Btw, there were a few Utah precincts where Obama did not get any votes...but I believe they were like 56-0 and 44-0...vs. all the precincts where Obama was getting HUNDREDS of votes to none for Romney.
I voted for neither of the above (voted for Goode)
