One Nation Under What God?
As Christians prepare to celebrate Easter the cornerstone of our faith, the resurrection of Jesus Christ, our President has told the planet Earth that America is no longer a Christian nation, and of all the things he's said that really upset me this is the most egregious and besides that; it is a downright lie.
I don't have to go into the well-known fact that America was discovered and settled by Christians and has since it's inception been founded on Judeo-Christian values.
Why Judeo-Christian? Because Jews and Christians, despite their many differences, worship the same God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Yahweh the Great, I Am, Jehovah, the God who parted the waters of the Red Sea, the God who made the sun stand still, the God who sent fire down and burned up the prophets of Baal, the Father and enabler of the immaculate conception, the heavenly father of Jesus Christ.
Now what Mr. Obama is saying in essence is we no longer honor the Christian and Jewish God, we honor all other supposed Gods, because the Allah the Muslims worship is not the same God as Jehovah, Buddha is not, nor is the millions of gods of Hinduism nor any other faith.
Regardless of what Barack Obama or Newsweek magazine says, America is still a Christian nation. Christianity is by far the most common faith in this country.
In fact the majority of the people who put Obama in office are Christians, if he had not gotten any Christian votes he would still be the Junior Senator from Illinois.
I have never in my 72 years seen a President misrepresent this nation as badly as Barack Obama has. He said America was no longer a Christian nation and went around the world criticizing it.
And why? Just to try to gain favor with a secular Europe and a Muslim world that hates us?
And what good did it do? He came home empty handed.
Obama went to Iraq and told the troops what a wonderful job they'd done, that they had made it possible for Iraq to take over their own defense.
Well Mr. President what happened to the Democrat mantras, "The surge is not working," "The war is lost"? A lot has sure happened in the last 80 days. The surge is now working and America has stopped being a Christian nation.
Mr. Obama you'd better hope in your heart of hearts that America doesn't stop being a Christian nation, because without the prayers of the Christians in this country, America could very well cease to exist.
There are millions of us out here who pray for the United States of America daily.
Some of us even pray for you Mr. President, and from what I've seen you really need it.
Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God, and don't you forget it Mr. Obama.
Happy Easter to all my Christian brothers and sisters out there.
He is risen!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What do you think?
Pray for our troops
God Bless America

Happy Easter everyone. Please pray for our country as well as our enemies.
It said, up above — Regardless of what Barack Obama or Newsweek magazine says, America is still a Christian nation. Christianity is by far the most common faith in this country.

Ummm..., if you’ve heard of “RINOs” — then you probably know what “CINOs” are, too...
So, if you count CINOs, then you might come up with Christianity being the most common faith in this country... :-)
Excellent job, Mr. Daniel’s.
God bless you too.
Daniel’s.=Daniels.
.and the South’s Gonna Do It Again ..........
Nope, I just know about what Jesus said about it...
Everyone had to be created by something. Even if they try to take God out of the public square, that still leaves us created with inalienable rights that can’t be taken away. They are wasting their time. No matter how much they try, they cannot take God away from anyone who wants him, and cannot use it to justify taking away the right to life liberty and the persuit of happiness.
So what’s their point again? lol

As Christians gather to celebrate Easter this Sunday, the latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 88% of adults nationwide think the person known to history as Jesus Christ actually walked the earth 2,000 years ago. That’s up five points from a year ago. Today, 5% disagree and 7% are not sure.
Eighty-two percent (82%) also believe that Jesus Christ was the son of God who came to Earth and died for our sins. Another 10% think otherwise and 8% aren’t sure.
Nearly as many, 79% believe the central claim of the Christian faith--that Jesus Christ rose from the dead. Only 10% say they do not believe the first Easter resurrection really happened, while 11% are not sure.
Overall, women tend to be stronger believers in Jesus Christ than men. Eighty-seven (87%) of women and 70% of men believe Jesus rose from the dead; 89% of women and 74% of men think he was the son of God; 91% of women and 85% of men believe he actually walked the earth.
Eighty-five percent (85%) of Catholics believe Jesus rose from the dead along with 86% of Protestants and 97% of Evangelical Christians. Eighty-nine percent (89%) of Catholics also think Jesus was the son of God. That view is shared by 90% of Protestants and 97% of Evangelical Christians. Finally, 87% of Catholics, 95% of Protestants and all Evangelical Christians surveyed believe that Jesus Christ walked the earth.
Among those who rarely or never attend church, 50% believe Jesus rose from the dead, 58% think he was the son of God and 72% say he walked the Earth.
While most adults are believers in Jesus Christ, just over half (56%) of adults say they will attend a church service to celebrate Jesus’ resurrection. Thirty-five percent (35%) have no intention of going to a service, while 9% are not sure if they will attend a service or not.
A separate Rasmussen Reports survey found that 53% consider Easter to be one of the nation’s most important holidays.
If this were a Christian nation, Obama would not be president.
Well, even Mormons believe Jesus rose from the dead, but I know that Mormon teachings are not Christian...
Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that Jesus rose from the dead, too — but they definitely do not have Christian teachings...
And with those two, you have the *two largest cult groups* in the United States.
One has to be a bit more discerning than that...
President Shift the ape has the American sheeple in front of the little shed on the hill.
You said — If this were a Christian nation, Obama would not be president.

You’ve got that one *exactly right*....
Sorry, I’m not sure what you’re saying here...
The Devil Went Down To Georgia (DC), he was looking for a soul to steal . . .
Fire on the Mountain run boys run . . . (LOL)
He is Risen Indeed!
When the stock market would go down by two points the MSM jumped all over GB declaring the ecomony in a “recession.” Now, the stock market drops several hyndred points and the mantra is: “we don't go by the stock market” since it normally goes up and down all the time, this would not be a good indicator of the economy.
Give me a break, these hypocrites can't seem to get anything right, even when the facts hit them in the face!
Yeah, Never mind the voter fraud, Dead folks, criminals and illegals voting in some cases twice and three times each for the RATS. While we just pray and turn the other cheek...
