Q&A: Barack Obama

"I believe in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ."

Interview by Sarah Pulliam and Ted Olsen | posted 1/23/2008 02:18PM

Barack Obama wants to set the record straight. He is not a Muslim, as recent e-mails falsely claim.

The Democratic presidential candidate is fighting the e-mails that have been widely circulated. Obama has been continually speaking about the role of faith in politics since his Call to Renewal address in June 2006.

In the days before the South Carolina primary, he is driving efforts to speaking with media to emphasize his Christian beliefs. His campaign also sent out a recent mailer portraying the candidate with his head bowed in prayer and says that he will be guided by prayer when he is in office.

The senator from Illinois spoke with Sarah Pulliam and Ted Olsen today about his faith, abortion, and the evangelical vote.

Funny I don't see anything in his "Church" doctrine that says anything about Christ.

Lots of stuff about Africa and Communism though.

[Salvey]

Taqqyia, taqqyia, taqqyia, from beginning to end.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

When a Republican makes this sort of declaration, the Left and MSM goes bonkers.

[Jorge]

I don’t care what he says. He is a Muslim by birth and no amount of crap he can put out is going to change that.

So you don't beleive Christ's blood can redeem people.

[Rome2000]

The Pastor as well as the membership of Trinity United Church of Christ is committed to a 10-point Vision:

1. A congregation committed to ADORATION.
2. A congregation preaching SALVATION.
3. A congregation actively seeking RECONCILIATION.
4. A congregation with a non-negotiable COMMITMENT TO AFRICA.
5. A congregation committed to BIBLICAL EDUCATION.
6. A congregation committed to CULTURAL EDUCATION.
7. A congregation committed to the HISTORICAL EDUCATION OF AFRICAN PEOPLE IN DIASPORA.
8. A congregation committed to LIBERATION.
9. A congregation committed to RESTORATION.
10. A congregation working towards ECONOMIC PARITY.

Don't forget Dr. White's references to “da Jooooos” and his being cozy with hate-filled dimwits like Farrakhan.

[HereInTheHeartland]

“I don’t care what he says. He is a Muslim by birth and no amount of crap he can put out is going to change that.”

There are many Muslims risking great danger and converting to Christianity around the world
I know nothing of Obama’s sincerity.

But I don't like him because he is a empty headed liberal.

He is the 2008 version of Chance the Gardner.

[silent_jonny]

But does Obama trust in Jesus for his salvation? That is the key.

Exactly.

Anyone can say they believe in Jesus. But are they producing the fruit of His Spirit?

[Uri’el-2012]

Didn't his Pastor just step down ?

[Army Air Corps]

Don’t forget the “Black Values System” which sounds akin to something written by Klan members with the word “white” replaced with “black.”

[ryan71]

I hope he's being truthful BUT we are all very acquainted with the Muslim policy that it's perfectly fine to lie as long as it furthers Islam.

[Emperor Palpatine]

No, he understands that in Islam, once a Muzzie, always a Muzzie.

Plus its taught in the Qur’an that you are to lie and deceive the infidel to further the jihad.

[silent_jonny]

LOL!

"you don't run for president on your profession of faith. you run on your demonstrated ability and wisdom....that is if you have any."


That's what many of us tried to tell the Huckabangers here.

[humblegunner]

Obama: "I believe in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ."

By the beard of mohammed I swear it is true!

[HereInTheHeartland]

“you don’t run for president on your profession of faith. you run on your demonstrated ability and wisdom”

But without faith (genuine faith, not just something said to tickle ears) you have no core values from which that wisdom can be based.
It all has to go back to something...

“When a Republican makes this sort of declaration, the Left and MSM goes bonkers.”

A Republican would be branded an “extremist”, ready to bomb the nearest abortion clinic.

[YouGoTexasGirl]

Maybe that’s the reason he couldn’t put his hand over his heart while the national anthem was playing??!!....wrong national anthem!
