Is Obama Really a Bible Believing Christian?

Obama Campaign Scrambling in Wake of Evangelist Questioning if He is Really a Christian
ST. PETERSBURG, Florida, June 13 /Christian Newswire/ -- Senator Barack Obama's campaign team is scrambling to do damage control in the wake of the national story two weeks ago when the world's leading Internet evangelist Bill Keller of Liveprayer, questioned in a widely distributed Op-ed article, YouTube video, and Daily Devotional to his 2.4 million subscribers whether Senator Obama was really a Christian.

Keller questioned the authenticity of Senator Obama's faith in Christ due to the fact he has stated there are "many paths to God" when orthodox Christianity clearly teaches that faith in Jesus Christ is the only way to be saved. Additionly, he supports of killing babies who survive an abortion, supports abortion, supports gay marriage, and supports giving away part of Israel to the Palestinians, all contrary to Christian teachings according to the Bible.

In response to Keller's assertions, the Obama campaign has launched the Joshua Generation Project, concentrating on young Christian rather than older Christians who are unlikely to support someone who advocates killing babies and gay marriage. Also, last week Senator Obama had a private meeting in Chicago with a handpicked selection of evangelicals who were allowed to ask him any question, but were forbidden to share his answers with the press or in any public forum. So much for freedom of the press and public access. What's he hiding?

Lastly, was the launch of a new campaign website designed to counter the rumors and false information being spread on the Internet. On that website, he again reaffirms his claim to be a Christian, but fails to address ANY of the questions about his statements and actions Keller raised which calls into question whether he really is a Christian or not.

Keller stated, "I have asked the Senator to sit down with me on camera and answer these important questions that have made people doubt if he really is a Christian. Despite repeated calls, emails, and letters to his campaign office, they have not even had the decency to respond.

It is evident that Senator Obama will not sit down with someone who will ask him the right questions which require simple yes and no answers, opting instead to continue to hide in forums where he can market himself a Christian and not be held accountable for his beliefs and actions."

Email Governor Paterson

If you have already called Governor Paterson's office, congratulations, good work. Here is something that is even easier to do and is extremely important. The Governor must hear from us and the more often the better.

Below is an email from the NYS Catholic Conference. They have a superb website and pre-written emails you can send. The email below is about Governor Patersons decree for all state agencies to recognize same-sex "marriages" from jurisdictions outside of New York. Please click on the Take Action Here link and let your light shine.

From the NYS Catholic Conference:
Recently, Gov. David Paterson unilaterally ordered all state agencies to recognize same-sex "marriages" from other states as valid marriages in New York. The Governor took his action even though New York's highest court ruled two years ago that New York State law does not permit same-sex "marriage." Please contact Gov. Paterson today and tell him that you are unhappy with his action and that marriage can be nothing other than the union of one man and one woman.

Clilck on the link below for a pre-written e-mail message to send to Gov. Paterson. http://www.nyscatholicconference.org/ Click the Take Action Now button on home page. Click on "Stand Up for Traditional Marriage". Then, simply fill in the required information and hit Send. Thank you for taking the time to support traditional marriage in New York State.

Any Body Seen a Fence?

This is an email from Steve at Grassfire.com

In less than two weeks, you and I have an incredible opportunity to help stimulate and push forward legislation that could ensure our borders are secured. The Fence By Date Certain Act is a critical piece of legislation that would restore the original mandates in the Secure Fence Act--most notably the promise to build 800 miles of double layered fencing.

As of this update, less than 13 miles of double layered fencing has been erected! This is unacceptable to me, and it should be to you as well. Not long ago, President Bush, after touring the crime-ridden streets of Yuma, Arizona, pledged to purge the city of illegal aliens, violent gangs and drug smugglers. He succeeded by building a double-layered fence--similar to what we were all promised!

On June 10, Ron De Jong and I will be in Washington, to present petitions to key House leaders, during our national press event, I will take to the podium--with petitions in hand, and I will demand the President do for us what he did in Yuma--but I need your immediate help!

To sign a petition click here:
http://www.grassfire.com I believe this could be our most important petition presentation. That'swhy I'm eager for EVERY one take action with me--to help push this vital legislation forward. With your help, I'm confident that we will reach and possibly even surpass 250,000 citizen signers!

After signing, forward this message to 25-35 friends and family urging them to take action by signing our petition demanding the fence be built as promised. This is a great opportunity for us to bring home our message of REAL border security, and I'm counting on you, to take strong action leading to our presentation. Thank you for taking fast action with me.
Steve

This is an important issue. Unless we are victorious now, it will be too late in the future because of NAFTA. PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION. Thank you.

Governor Paterson's New Law

Governor Paterson has made a DECREE, on May 28, 2008, that NYS would recognize "same-sex marriages" performed in other jurisdictions. (i.e.: Massachusetts and Canada). Paterson has directed all state agencies to revise their policies and regulations, 133 in all, to recognize "same-sex marriages". New York State Domestic Relations Law states that marriage is between a man and a women. The NYS Constitution also says that marriage is between a man and a woman. Not only that but, more importantly, God, Who instituted marriage, instituted marriage as a union between a man and a woman. The only person who can change the Institution of Marriage is God Himself. I don't see Him doing that any time soon, actually not ever. Governor Paterson is doing what Psalm 2 said would happen. Men would try to throw of the restraints of God's law.

Not only does Governor Paterson's Royal Decree go against the the will of God, it also goes against the will of the people. The people elected Legislators, not the Governor, to make the laws of our State.

Last year the NYS Assembly passed a same-sex marriage bill but the NYS Senate has refused to pass the bill, therefore the law has not changed. Governor Paterson has circumvented the legislative process with his decree. Governor Paterson is basing his decree on a flawed decision issued by the NYS Appellate Division's, Fourth Department. That decision is being challenged in the courts and will be overturned in the Court of Appeals if we pray.

Reverend Motley and New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms have issued a Press Release stating, "The Governor's decree is a violation of the New York State Domestic Relations Law, the New York State Constitution, and the Word of God. " I couldn't agree more than I do.

Please Pray that Same-sex Marriage does not become law in NY and that NYS does not recognize Same-sex Marriage from other jurisdictions.

Contact Governor Paterson by phone or letter and express your strong opposition to his decree to recognize "Same-sex marriages" from jurisdictions outside of New York. Governor David Paterson, State Capitol, Albany, NY 12224. 518.474.8390.

P.S. Governor Paterson cannot do enough for the gay community. On June first, Governor Paterson made a declaration that June is Gay Pride Month.

Pray daily and fast one day a week for the November elections: Ask God to put the righteous into office and to remove the ungodly from office.
