Obama versus Jesus: Black Christians must decide
By Lloyd Marcus
A poll claims Romney will receive zero percent of the black vote. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/black-conservatives-make-their-voices-heard-after-poll-shows-romney-support-among-african-americans-at-zero-percent/ Well, if the poll proves correct, it means that a vast majority of black voters are ignorant of the truth... or else they're racist.
Black Christians who vote for Obama knowing his crimes against Christianity and biblical principles haven chosen to worship the idol of racial loyalty over their discipleship to Jesus Christ. Pure and simple.
"Thou shalt have no other gods before me." Exodus 20:3
Incredibly, some blacks have completely forsaken their Christianity for Obama. A fellow PK (preacher's kid) said her parents recently changed their stance on same-sex marriage in support of their black president. I find this remarkable.
Though I disagree, I have been sympathetic and understanding with black seniors who have suffered dearly, with hearts still bearing scars of racial injustice.
A year or so ago, I hosted the first Black Conservative Press Conference at the National Press Club in DC. Several prominent black conservatives from numerous black conservative groups/organizations spoke. My brother brought my 84-year-old black dad from Baltimore. That evening, Dad said, "Everything I heard today is true. But, because of racism I suffered in my youth, I can not turn against Obama." http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2567461/posts
At that time, I respectfully gave my hero, my preacher dad, a pass. Some may criticize me, saying, Lloyd, either you stand for conservatism or you do not. While you may have a valid point, it is in my DNA to respect my parents. How do you respectfully tell your usually character-driven parent that his decision to support Obama, no-matter-what, is rooted in racism and a refusal to forgive?
But now that Obama has been exposed as the most anti-Christian president in U.S. history, senior black Christians must no longer be given a pass for supporting this man. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/barton-calls-obama-americas-most-biblically-hostile-u-s-president/
At stake is something extremely important; their fellowship with Christ versus an idolatrous worship of skin-color.
Obama versus Jesus. "...Choose you this day whom ye will serve," Joshua 24:15
A growing number of black clergy are publicly choosing Jesus over Obama http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=8lxnz2qMbM8 — denouncing Obama for his support of same-sex marriage and his vow to be an advocate for the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jiRllRPiij8
Talk about hard core anti-Christian beliefs; not only does Obama support abortion, but he supports infanticide — killing babies who survive failed abortions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSNGJd3wCes
Obama taught Alinsky tactics to university students from a book which its author dedicated to Lucifer. "Rules for Radicals" was written by Saul Alinsky. http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2012/01/monica-crowley-alinsky-dedicated-his-book-to-lucifer-and-obama-taught-alinsky-video/
Alinsky's dedication says, "...the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer"
Obama's attacks on religious freedoms are numerous. http://beforeitsnews.com/alternative/2012/08/obamas-attacks-on-religious-freedom-in-the-usa-2450414.html Over 40 Catholic groups are suing Obama for mandating in Obamacare that faith-based institutions provide contraception and abortion services. http://news.nationalpost.com/2012/08/23/catholic-cardinal-suing-obama-over-health-plan-will-give-benediction-at-republican-national-convention/
Make no mistake about it: the black church is home base/campaign headquarters for Democratic Party politics. IRS rules against political campaigning from the pulpit only applies to Republicans.
In his shameful, blatantly race-baiting "African-Americans for Obama" campaign ad, Obama says to go, "to your faith community" to promote his campaign. Obama actually instructs black churches to recruit "congregation captains" for his re-election campaign. http://www.catholicleague.org/obama-urges-churches-to-get-political/
Rest assured; black churches which dis Jesus for Obama will not be investigated by the IRS for violating their 501c3 non-profit status.
But there is a higher authority. Woe unto black pastors who encourage their flocks to vote racial loyalty over biblical principles.
Incredibly, the roots of racial hatred run so insidiously deep into the hearts of some blacks who profess Christianity that Obama has their vote — period. These blacks will claim that my facts are lies, that videos have been doctored, and that I am a paid Uncle Tom sell-out to the Republicans. The Bible speaks of those who would rather believe a lie than the truth. Such are in my prayers.
In the biblical account of Christ's Passion, the law gave the mob an opportunity to free one condemned prisoner, thus, saving their choice from crucifixion. Pilate asked the crowd, do I free Jesus or Barabbas? The crowd yelled, "Give us Barabbas!" Jesus was crucified.
Two thousand years later, biblical principles are scheduled for crucifixion in America. Black Christians are faced with a crucial choice; Jesus or Obama. I pray that come November, a majority of black Christians will not yell, "Give us Obama!"
