Obama: 'My Faith in Jesus Is Legitimate and Real' {BARF!!}
Fox ^ | August 21, 2012 | n/a

Posted on 08/25/2012 5:40:26 PM PDT by upchuck

In an interview with the Washington National Cathedral magazine, President Obama discussed how his faith influenced his politics — saying that at the end of the day 'God is in control.'

“First and foremost, my Christian faith gives me a perspective and security that I don’t think I would have otherwise: that I am loved. That, at the end of the day, God is in control," Obama said.

...

Obama also briefly addressed the ongoing (false) doubts about his faith — including rumors that he is a Muslim (which he is not).

"I have a job to do as president, and that does not involve convincing folks that my faith in Jesus is legitimate and real. I do my best to live out my faith, and to stay in the Word, and to make my life look more like His," Obama said "What I can do is just keep on following Him, and serve others—trying to make folks’ lives a little better using this humbling position that I hold."

He could accomplish more if he faked being mainstream, or at least moreso. Islam certainly colors his worldview, but I read him as a an effete wannabe Leninist, what used to be called champagne socialists.

Whatever he is, it is malignant and he was indoctrinated into it long, long ago.

“IMHO, nobama is a muslim” he proclaimed that he was, twice publicly.

Psa_119:113 I hate the double-minded, but I love your law.

Jas_1:8 he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Jas 4:8 Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
Jas 4:9 Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.
Jas 4:10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.

His faith in Jesus is so strong that he opposed a bill that would protect a child that survived a botched abortion.

And the Koran teaches that the good Muslim may lie to the infidel.

If he continues spouting these Christian declarations, then he risks being declared an apostate.

A man’s got to believe in himself, I guess.

“His attitudes on sexuality and abortion however are repugnant to traditional Islam. “
his
Not if you’re talking about the practices of infidels.

I have NEVER heard or read anywhere, nor have I ever heard 0bama that Jesus Christ is the Son of the Living God and his personal Lord and Savior. I have never heard or heard tell of 0bama professing that Jesus Christ is the Savior of Mankind, Ever.

Until 0bama actually says these things, he is no Christian. Because of what I know of Islam, I believe him a muslim.

Parse the words he uses in this interview and compare it to the TV interview with Stephanopolus— no way they match up:

“Faith in Jesus is real”— what does that MEAN? Faith about WHAT in Jesus (his redemption of our sins, that he was and is the Son of God, that he was resurrected?)

“I do my best to live out my faith, and to stay in the Word, and to make my life look more like His,”— What faith is he “living out” and what Word is he staying in— the Koran? (like when he attended Rev. Wright’s anti-christian church of muslims passing for christian), and whose life is the “His” he is talking about— is that Mohammed’s? Or Allah?

“What I can do is just keep on following Him, and serve others—trying to make folks’ lives a little better using this humbling position that I hold.”— this notion of
“serving others” apparently does not extend to all people as Christianity demands. And if you think this narcissistic clown is “humble”-— well that is a laugh. Saint Obama— let’s put him up for it (patron saint of re-distribution and Statism). Marxist scholars will tell you the Lenin felt strongly that Bolsheviks needed to maintain the “illusion” of religion to keep the masses placated, and to initially tolerate religion, but later eradicate it. That is what this interview is about, and it flies in the face of the reality of what he does every day to destroy our country.

What kind of “bitter clinger” ,to use his words is he? Because those same “folks” he says he wants to “help” are the same ones he calls “bitter clingers clinging to their Bibles and their guns”. Those people are called Real Americans, and they did not spend their developing years with neo-Marxists and domestic terrorists. This is pure utter BS.

Jesus the Son of God does not advocate baby murder nor communism.

An anti-Christ is at work, the work of darkness.

In the faith which he was raised under, islam that is, he can never leave islam— it is not permitted. And, islam provides taquiyya— you are permitted to lie to the infidel, and even to deny your true faith (islam) when you feel you are at risk of persecution— like being interviewed about your “cover” religion.

Taqiyya was developed to protect Shiites who are in the minority. In Shia islam, taqiyya is lawful in situations where there is overwhelming danger. In Sunni islam it is also allowed. In each case it is to preserve the islam religion by “legal” lying especially to the infidel outsiders.

Obamao is a muslim passing for a Christian. Most of Wright’s church were similar with a close tie to Farrakhan— another nut.

Certainly he is no Christian. I am skeptical that he is a Moslem because he is so thoroughly Marxist-Leninist. If he worships, it is before a mirror. Just my opinion. He is probably too weird and kinked for anyone to truly be certain.

Remember the interview with George Stephanopoulos
and Obama said my “Muslim Faith” and George quickly corrected him your Christian faith and Obama repeated those words. I think it was before the 2008 election if I recall. Not once have I ever confused my
Christian faith with Muslim faith never ever ever.

Issa, the Arabic name for Jesus. Certainly not the Congressman who is uncovering Fast and Furious and the Marxist Holder.

The Mahdi being the so called redeemer of islam. And interpreted by imams to the Mufti of Jerusalem who made friends with the pagan National Socialists of Germany— comrades in arms against all Jews. This is one major religion of hatred.

There is considerable scholarly work, by Robert Conquest and others, about Lenin’s Marxist position on religion. In particular Lenin supported and cultivated islamic leftists in the outlying areas of Russia. Lenin said the organization and discipline of islamic leftist should be cultivated and used to further Communism. This would lean heavily on the socialist tendencies of islam (and he also felt that way to a lesser extent toward leftist Christians— sound familiar). It was Ukrainian muslims that toppled the bread basket of Russia and actuate the takeover of the kulaks and the Holodomor starvation of 15 million Ukrainians— Christians and muslims both.

This is from the Marxist handbook. A simple lying representation to preserve a false relationship of a leader to a religion and the use of religious organizations to further the Marxist state. Disgusting really and very dangerous to liberty and our republic.

“my faith in Jesus is legitimate and real.”

“We tried our plan and it worked!”

“Our support for Israel is rock solid!”

“No one can accuse me or my campaign for being divisive.”

“It is generally agreed that the stimulus has broken the back of the recession!”

“I will cut the deficit in half by the end of my first term.”

“The Affordable Care Act will reduced health care cost and save everyone money!”

“Abortion will never be included in our health care plan.”

“If you like your doctor and current provider, you can keep it!”

Once he was raised a muslim, he is a muslim. There is no separation allowed and fatwas for true escapees from islam are issued all the time. He NEVER left islam.

I agree he is a Marxist, and a muslim passing as christian— because taquiyya allows the lie to promote the expansion of islam. Prior post from me on Lenin’s use of islam to further communist takeover.

This is why he bowed to the Saudi royals (who are the legal guardians of Mecca)— it was to let them know he is still in the muslim fold.

It is also why he is tight with Medvedev and Putin—they continue to use islam in their world hegemony. Even still, in the past certain islamics fought the Soviet infidels— people like bin Laden, who was an outcast from the family retainers (in construction business) to the House of Saud. And even as the Saudis continue to fund the madrassahs raising more fanatic Wahhabist islamics to jihad. Isn’t it great to have such a lying dangerous fraud in the Executive?
