His most arrogant statement was that Jesus’s precepts were in agreement with HIS.

So in other words, Jesus endorsed his already formed ideas. Sort of grandiose if you ask me. He didn’t say “jesus hit me in my heart and showed me the way”. He just says he and Jesus were sort of on the same wave length.

Of all the arrogance. I usually think his religion and beliefs are his business and find it distasteful to have people declaring whether he is a true Christian or not thinking that is for God to sort out.

But when somebody equates his own ideas and says Jesus agrees with him. Well, it just is stunning.

He admits that he is an apostate... he would already be a traget if that were the case... he is using Taqiyya... simple.

I have been having the same thoughts on his statements.

“precepts of Jesus Christ spoke to me”
Note that it wasn’t the Big Guy himself but Jesus’s “precepts” that spoke to him. He doesn’t admit the divinity of Christ nor even admit that Jesus was a person.

“in terms of”
Now he even limits the precepts to mere “terms”.

“the kind of life that I would want to lead”
Note that Obama had already decided what kind of life to lead. Jesus didn’t speak to him nor did Jesus change him. To him, Jesus is the one who we attribute precepts that we all agree are good to follow. The precepts have their validity outside of Christ’s divinity.

In short, he’s claims to be a Christian but is clear he is not born again in Christ.

yeah, the part about “everybody’s path to grace being different” or some such drivel.

couldn’t bring himself to say “John 14:6 applies.” next question...

Good post.

He basically claims Jesus “endorsed” his already formed “ideas”. Nothing about his heart, soul, nadda.

Jesus “endorsed” him. What arrogance.

Good point. It’s always all about Obama when Obama is speaking.

It was very interesting on Americas’ morning news how they described Obama being very nervous as he said those words and which words he used. As stated above he is only doing this to gain support and personally I too think he is lying and hiding his Muslim, Marxist agenda.

I’m reposting this. Take a close look at Obama’s statement:

“So,uh,uh,uh.... I came to my Christian faith, uh,,uh,, later in life, uh,uh,uh and it was because, uh,uh,uh, the precepts of Jesus Christ, uh, spoke to me , uh, uh,uh, in terms of the kind of life, uh,uh, uh, that I would want to lead — uh, being my brothers’ and , uh, sisters’ keeper, uh, uh, uh,treating , uh, others,uh,uh, uh, as they would, uh, treat me.”,

This is one of the topics on KLBJ in Austin today. I cannot believe how many people are calling in and standing up to defend the idiot in chief for his stuttering answer.

All he believes is what he heard in the rev wright’s church for the 20+ years. His token visit to a church last few weeks to hear a mulsim speaker is enough for me to question his faith.

To: Proverbs 3-5

Translation/parsing his words -
“”My family didn’t - frankly, they weren’t folks who went to church every week.” But we made it regularly to the Mosque.

“And my mother was one of the most spiritual people I knew, but she didn’t raise me in the church.” It was in the Muslim school I went too. Remember, she married two Muslim men.

Then “18 percent of people wrongly believe Obama is Muslim” but 100 percent of liberal media have to use the phrase “wrongly believe”, based only on his word.

By the way 3-5, “Unitarian-Universalist brother who thinks Jesus was a great teacher and social worker and nothing more.” Muslim’s believe Jesus was a prophet.
