Should Christians Support President Obama?
This man, Dr. David Barton, was on Dr. Charles Stanley's program "In Touch" as a guest speaker.
I almost shouted "HALLELUJAH" when I finished reading.
Forward or discard....it's your choice...but PLEASE read before you do!

Dr. David Barton is more of a historian than a Biblical speaker, but very famous for his knowledge of historical facts as well as Biblical truths.
Dr. David Barton - on Obama
Respect the Office? Yes.
Respect the Man in the Office? No, I am sorry to say.
I have noted that many elected officials, both Democrats and Republicans, called upon America to unite behind Obama. Well, I want to make it clear to all who will listen that I AM NOT uniting behind Obama! I will respect the Office which he holds, and I will acknowledge his abilities as an orator and wordsmith and pray for him, BUT that is it. I have begun today to see what I can do to make sure that he is a one-term President!
  Why am I doing this? It is because: - I do not share Obama's vision or value system for America ;
- I do not share his Abortion beliefs;
- I do not share his radical Marxist's concept of re-distributing wealth;
  - I do not share his stated views on raising taxes on those who make $150,000+ (the ceiling has been changed three times since August);
  - I do not share his view that America is Arrogant;
  - I do not share his view that America is not a Christian Nation;
- I do not share his view that the military should be reduced by 25%;
  - I do not share his view of amnesty and giving more to illegal's than our American Citizens who need help;
- I do not share his views on homosexuality and his definition of marriage;
- I do not share his views that Radical Islam is our friend and Israel is our enemy who should give up any land;
  - I do not share his spiritual beliefs (at least the ones he has made public);
  - I do not share his beliefs on how to re-work the healthcare system in America;
  - I do not share his Strategic views of the Middle East;
  - I certainly do not share his plan to sit down with terrorist regimes such as Iran.
  Bottom line: my America is vastly different from Obama's, and I have a higher obligation to my Country and my GOD to do what is Right!
For eight (Cool years, the Liberals in our Society, led by numerous entertainers who would have no platform and no real credibility but for their celebrity status, have attacked President Bush, his family, and his spiritual beliefs! They have not moved toward the center in their beliefs and their philosophies, and they never came together nor compromised their personal beliefs for the betterment of our Country! They have portrayed my America as a land where everything is tolerated except being intolerant! They have been a vocal and irreverent minority for years!
They have mocked and attacked the very core values so important to the founding and growth of our Country! They have made every effort to remove the name of GOD or Jesus Christ from our Society! They have challenged capital punishment, the right to bear firearms, and the most basic principles of our criminal code! They have attacked one of the most fundamental of all Freedoms, the right of free speech!
Unite behind Obama? Never!
I am sure many of you who read this think that I am going overboard, but I refuse to retreat one more inch in favor of those whom I believe are the embodiment of Evil!
PRESIDENT BUSH made many mistakes during his Presidency, and I am not sure how history will judge him. However, I believe that he weighed his decisions in light of the long established Judeo-Christian principles of our Founding Fathers!!!
Majority rules in America, and I will honor the concept; however, I will fight with all of my power to be a voice in opposition to Obama and his "goals for America ..." I am going to be a thorn in the side of those who, if left unchecked, will destroy our Country! Any more compromise is more defeat! I pray that the results of this election will wake up many who have sat on the sidelines and allowed the Socialist-Marxist anti-GOD crowd to slowly change so much of what has been good in America!
GOD bless you and GOD bless our Country!

I do not vote for parties, the economy, gun rights, or anything else. The only way I vote is BIBLICALLY and for that reason I cannot vote for Obama.  Things such as gun rights are very important to me but I would vote biblically over gun rights, jmo.

I read once that Christians on make up the majority of registered voters. If that is true then how do we end up with politicians with values and beliefs that are contrary to scripture. It is simple. We do not get up off our humps and vote like we should.
Song of Solomon 2:15 "Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes

The little foxes that are described are our excuses for not voting. I know people that always have excuses for why they don't vote, however they constantly complain about what goes on in our country. I think that we as Christians should be active, vote and kick these people out if we don't want them. Don't wait until they are elected to complain. I am going to do my darnedest to convince people not to vote for the guy next time.

Christians need to get out and vote. I do not have facts or stats to back up what I am about to state, but I am afraid that many Christians do not get out and vote and that is why we do not make the differences in elections.

Just in case you wonder where Mr. Obama stands, he has openly supported the idea of homsexual marriage (Fox News, Yahoo News). Folks, we are in a perfect storm for desctruction and collapse if we do not turn this boat around spiritually.
We have committed two grave sins:
1. Turning away from Judeo-Christian values to humanism
2. Turning away from supporting Israel to becoming it's enemy.
The Bible states the following:
"The nation that forgets the Lord shall be turned into hell"
"I will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you"-Abraham's promise from God to be a blessing to all the nations.

Please get out and vote. We cannot afford 4 more years of this administration.

Not much to add except for my support of all of the above statements.  Get out and vote people... but the people who are reading this ARE getting out and voting...

As a Born Again Believer in Christ, I have already voted and I can proudly say NO, I did not vote for Obama.  I like to think that I put him 1 step closer to unemployment.

[BP1992]

Heck NO!

Look what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah.  I pray our nation does not reach the point that they did.
