So ... it's all Jesus' fault?
One News Now ^ | 2-14-12 | Dr. Jerry Newcombe

Posted on 02/16/2012 4:08:11 PM PST by ReformationFan

How well is President Obama doing on fixing the nation's financial crises? Not very, say most Americans. A Rasmussen poll notes that only 36 percent of Americans feel the president is doing a good job on the economy.

But now we know who's really to blame for all this -- Jesus.

The president spoke about his faith, as a professing Christian, at the National Prayer Breakfast earlier this month, and said that it was Jesus Christ who inspired him to pursue all the big policies that conservatives would argue are hurting our economy.

For example, ObamaCare -- his centerpiece legislation.

President Obama said, "...when I talk about making sure insurance companies aren't discriminating against those who are already sick...or making sure that unscrupulous lenders aren't taking advantage of the most vulnerable among us, I do so because I genuinely believe it will make the economy stronger for everybody. But I also do it because I know that far too many neighbors in our country have been hurt and treated unfairly over the last few years, and I believe in God's command to 'love thy neighbor as thyself.'"

The president went on to qualify the notion that the Golden Rule is found in other religions too. He added, "But for me as a Christian, it also coincides with Jesus's teaching that 'for unto whom much is given, much shall be required."

When you've been out of work for years, can't even get an interview, and jobless benefits have run out, or you have a relative in that situation, you have a perspective that even the MSM with it's cooked "better than expected" "seasonally-adjusted" first time jobless claims and 8.3% unemployment "not including those who gave up looking for work" can't counter.

I believe that OBlasphemula is going to get a very strong dose of the Almighty’s ire this year. In fact I believe it so blatently apparent that many across the world will take notice and see His hand in this.

Okay, kiddies, it's your turn to take something out of context...

God the Father has both SEEN and RECORDED in the books exactly what Obama said and did, and Obama's lying words will BE REMEMBERED at the time of Revelation 20, when this same book is opened; and Obama will be judged out of those things which God has written to show that Obama's works are evil against the Living Father God; Obama will receive his just reward of eternal judgement and damnation into the Lake of Fire forever.

Revelation 20:12: And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

God will NOT be mocked by Christ rejecting pagan Muslim Obama. God will have the last judgement on these who mock God. It is so very obvious that Obama is NOT a Christian, for he completely miss-understands the Bible quotes he uses and truly is a closet Muslim.
