I have never seen an American President that was so clearly, and unabashedly a perfect "litmus" for everything we, as conservative Christians, ought to be concerned with, in accordance with our beliefs in the whole Gospel Of Jesus Christ, and his apparent lack thereof!!! I know the Bible condemns the practice of judging other peoples' faith, or lack thereof, but, by the same token Jesus said, "...by their fruits ye shall know them". There seems to be a discrepancy here...How can we know (or, "judge") their "fruits" (a combination of their words, and actions,...either in harmony, or in hypocritical contrast to what they say), without judging them, which is clearly discouraged, if not outright condemned! I admit to some rather difficult meditations on the difference between these two concepts.
It seems to me that "Time Frame" is the determining factor, here. Repentance has always been the key to salvation, and only God (and Jesus) know who has really repented of his, or her sinful past. Obama has stood for plenty of concepts that desperately need repentance for, as a nation, and him, personally. I don't believe we should judge him as repentant, or not, personally. That would be our assuming a role that God has reserved for Himself. God is clearly giving Obama time to repent of the evil he has brought this country into (careful, Barak...Jesus has promised to return when you LEAST EXPECT HIM!!!), and even now continues to try to do more, as though he was trying to destroy our nation from within. And He is clearly giving us the opportunity, and the impetus to reverse his most evil plans! If we choose to allow them we endanger the whole nation accordingly. But, as President of the United States, I believe we must "judge" his administration's policies, as either good, or evil, accordingly. We either join with him in his evil concepts (like forcing our children in public schools to share bathroom facilities, now, and probably Gym Class showers, and locker room facilities, later, with those who "feel" their "sexual orientation" is opposite from the gender they were born with), or we oppose them! And, how can we oppose his policies, without judging them? Clearly, the Lord makes a distinction between judging people for their personal sins, and for our blind cooperation with their evil policies, and practices.
Their comes a time when we have to show people like Obama that "enough is enough"!!! Even if he duped enough voters to get himself elected (and re-elected), we need to resist his administration's blatant move toward National Perversion, or suffer God's judgment ourselves, for not doing so. We saw (in Biblical History) a time when the local perverts had taken over the whole society, until God had decided that "enough was enough", and He judged all of Sodom, and Gomorrah, Himself! And we know that His Judgement is final!!! But how many people secretly disapproved of the evil behavior that had taken over their society, and just learned to live with it all? We know that Lot's two sons-in-law did not heed the warning. Are we as a nation in danger of the same blind complacency??? If we are, then can the same kind of judgment be far behind?
If Obama, and his administration want to implement this perverse law within the bureaucracy, fine! But when they try and force our children to do likewise, that's going way too far!!! How many young girls will lose their virginity in school restrooms, and probably locker rooms, and risk even "gang rape", when young boys who thought they were Homosexuals will surprisingly discover heterosexual feelings (whether they call themselves "Bisexuals", or not) at the expense of our young girls' purity, and innocence ??? Out-of-wedlock childbirth may soon become statistically commonplace, or Planned Parenthood may receive a new source of income with the new abortions that may result from this perverse Obama law!!!
All this concern may be moot, anyway, as this perverse law will surely be tested, Constitutionally, all the way up to the Supreme Court. But, with the recent passing of Justice Scalia, who can say if there is enough wisdom left on the Bench to throw this absurdly perverse law out? Since Presidential Executive Actions carry the weight of law until they are reversed by the courts, if there is not enough wisdom left on the court, and they allow it to stand (not showing enough "gumption" to reverse it), then perhaps this is God's way of testing us to see if we will continue to send our children to such a perverse school system, or whether we will demand that the States be given back their controls over the public schools that were rightfully taken from them, due to racial discrimination. Some forms of discrimination are not only proper, but necessary (people should not be discriminated against because of the blackness of their skin, but because of the "blackness" of their hearts; Obama, apparently is "black" throughout)! But, apparently, the public schools of the land (or, at least, the Department of Education) have lost the ability to discriminate between good, and evil; and want our children to be equally confused as they are. If we allow this to continue, how can we not expect God to judge us the way He judged Sodom, and Gomorrah!!! I think it's time for America to choose which way they are going to go; God's way, or Obama's way. There is a clear distinction between the two positions!
I have long felt that the Bible draws a clear distinction between "intelligence" (which Obama clearly has in abundance) and "wisdom" (which can be defined as the ability to discern "right" from "wrong") which Obama, and many other Democrats, seem to be pathetically lacking in! It's getting to the point where anything that comes out of Obama's mouth has to be rejected automatically for the foolishness that it represents!!! He is becoming a perfect "litmus" for any degree of wisdom in our government.
Does he not remember (at least from History classes, in school) that America had undergone a huge military disarmament before Pearl Harbor, and this may have played a large role in allowing the Japanese to believe that they could attack us safely? This disarmament was because of the popular view, in America (though obviously foolish), that World War I was the "war to end all wars", because certainly man could not possibly dream up more efficient ways to kill their fellow man, than was seen in World War I. Well, guess again, folks! Mankind has apparently an infinite capacity to dream up better ways to murder his fellow man, and Satan is always whispering in his ear! This will continue until God decides that He has had enough! Wars will continue until Jesus comes back, and finally puts an end to it all! ("Even so come quickly, Lord Jesus!")
We have now undergone the greatest military disarmament in history, thanks to the Obama administration's policies. Does Obama think history will not repeat itself? Is he truly ignorant of George Santayana's famous quote that, "Those who will not remember the past are condemned to relive it"? Perhaps Russia will decide we are too weak to put up a fight against their aggression! From almost 2 million service personnel, we are now down to about 1 million, and 300,000 active duty personnel (men, and women). That's less than we had before Pearl Harbor! The Navy has been reduced to about half of their former amount of ships at sea. Obama has left us open to the aggression of any hegemonistic idiot that wants to control the world (like that insane idiot who rules North Korea). Do we really want to be drawn into a war with China, or Russia, or some lunatic society like the I.S.I.S. Caliphate (would I.S.I.S. have dared to challenge the Bush administration, or the Reagan Administration)? If we are viewed as being too weak to defend ourselves, we are practically begging our enemies to test us, internationally, and even domestically!
I have quoted before the famous words of Alexis De Tocqueville, the French philosopher of the early 19th century, who came to, and travelled around America to determine what made our country great. His conclusion was that, "America is great, because America is good. When America ceases to be good, it will cease to be great!" This wisdom was not spoken by a known theologian, but by a member of the French Revolutionary government, which was oppressively atheistic, and obsessively exercised the Guillotine to decapitate those who dared to disagree with their polices.
Does that sound more like the wisdom of America of the past, or today (thanks to Obama's policies)?
At some point, Jesus will decide to come back to put an end to all of our evil foolishness. Then, He will simply destroy all those who wish to create more evil in the world (Obama please take note; guess which side of the issue you're on, so far?), leaving a peaceful world for those of us who believe in Him. The only questions are, how many of us will be around when that happens, and which side of His judgement will we receive?!!
