Obama & the Gospel of Inclusion...

2008-08-03T03:01:00.007-04:00

Dear Believers,

This particular editorial is the most personal message that I have ever delivered and is going to be hard to swallow for most. Seldom do I write in the first person to God’s people, since these editorials are written; oft times words tend to come across as condescending and obnoxious. As such, I never want it to be said that I used the blessed opportunity of editorializing God’s Word as an occasion to disrespect His people, get on my soap box, or pretend that I am holier than thou. God as my witness, my very life, my family and my livelihood depend on delivering God’s biblical Word; I take nothing away from the message nor do I add anything to the message. I pray continuously for divine inspiration as so every editorial is an inspired message from the Holy Spirit and supported by biblical truths. While, these messages oft times present as insensitive and even harsh at times, God’s message of true uncorrupted holiness is not for the faint of heart. We live in a savagely corrupt world, yet He still requires us to maintain the Church’s integrity as well as our own. Obtaining and maintaining true salvation is not achievable through the “holy card” version of religion. We must utilize the divinely inspired Word of God as a road map for all of life’s decisions. That being said, some will be offended by the body of this editorial. However, I ask four things of you: 1) Read carefully. 2) Measure all you read by God’s Word and feel free to research the information yourself. 3) Pray that the Spirit of Jesus will speak unity to your heart, mind and soul. 4) Realize that God is ultimately in control and certain things must take place in order to reconcile His Word.

That being said, Unless Barack Obama comes under the auspices of a TRUE spiritual mentor dedicated to teaching him

Ø Who God truly is…
Ø Why and how he has been misled…
Ø Why his personal belief system is immoral…
Ø How to obtain true salvation…
Ø What God is to be in his life…
Ø What the spiritual ramifications of the presidency actually are..

the focus of the United States, the Body of Christ and specifically the Black Church, in this country will shift away from Christ’s true holiness and embrace the demonic “Gospel of Inclusion”.

Why?

Ephesians 6:12 declares; For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (KJV) Meaning, regardless of what we can see, ALL things are spiritual in nature and demonic spirits wage war against the Body of Christ in an effort to encourage and maintain sovereign control over specific regions. As such, Satan exerts his worldly authority over governmental rule in our world. For example, the demonic spiritual influence exerted by Bill Clinton’s sexual depravity is his true presidential legacy: [1] [2]

Ø Recent studies, suggest that due to the actions and words of Bill Clinton, teens largely feel that oral sex is not sex at all. [3]
Ø A federal study found that 55% of 15- to 19-year-old boys and 54% of girls reported getting or giving oral sex, compared with 49% of boys and 53% of girls the same ages who reported having had intercourse. [4]
Ø About 75 percent of teens ages 15-17 who have had intercourse have also had oral sex, while 13 percent of teens ages 15-17 who have never had intercourse have admitted to engaging in oral sex.[5]

By claiming that oral sex is not sex Clinton, inadvertently released a spirit of sexual depravity upon our nation that ultimately infected our children. Amazingly, “all of a sudden, without explanation and not understanding why” our children began feeling as though oral sex is just as casual as kissing or holding hands. [6] This “mysterious change” in adolescent sexual behavior is directly correlated to the demonic spiritual influences released from the principalities governing the presidency.

What does this have to do with Barack Obama?

Obama’s spiritual background and development is wrought with Anti-Christ influences, such as Islam, Catholicism, Atheism and black separatist “Christianity”. According to Obama’s autobiography, his father was a Muslim and his mother was an Atheist. After his father abandoned the family, Obama’s mother than married yet another Muslim man who, with Obama, prayed and worshiped at the mosque occasionally and specifically during celebratory activities. He also noted in his autobiography that he spent two years in a Muslim school and another two years in a Catholic school while living in Indonesia from ages six to ten. After the age of ten, he and his Atheist mother moved to Hawaii where he lived as an Atheist for many years. In the late 80’s he became a member of Trinity United Church of Christ (TUCC), famous for its black separatist ministry. While Obama’s spiritual influences are numerous, they are all derived from and rooted in the Spirit of the Anti-Christ. While most seek to discount his Atheist, Muslim and Catholic roots and focus chiefly on the spiritual benefits of the TUCC, on closer examination one will understand the bigoted, ill-conceived, misinformed, propagandist realities of the “Church’s” message.

Regretfully, we have all been exposed to the hate-filled filth spewed over the pulpit at TUCC. Truthfully, racism and slanderous anti-American propaganda only represents a modicum of the spiritual abuse that members of TUCC find themselves immersed within. Beyond the fact that the TUCC encourages a pro-choice [7] belief system, TUCC ordained its first openly gay man in 1972 and in 2005 became the first major Christian denomination to endorse same-sex marriage.[8] According to their website, in the Singles Community Ministry section they encourage “Same Gender Loving”, a singles ministry for homosexual couples. [9] Furthermore, until recently, Obama has been a devout member and protégée of the “church’s” senior minister Jeremiah Wright. Wright would go on to mentor and shape Obama’s perverted inclusionary belief system. Though Obama’s “hope” is to bring “change” to the nation and unify the country as a whole. The reality of this utopian pipedream rests solely in his inclusionary belief system and is detrimental to the spiritual well-being of our country. The subsequent list, Obama’s voting record [10] and personal quotes, illustrate why Christians must understand the urgency of measuring a candidate’s beliefs against the Word of the Almighty: [11] [12]

Ø Voted against the ban on partial birth abortion.
Ø Voted against keeping minors from crossing state lines for abortion.
Ø Voted against minors notifying parents about out-of-state abortions.
Ø Oppose public religious expressions of Judeo-Christians to be fair to minority religions.
Ø Opposes prayer in schools because it fails to recognize American pluralism and religious diversity.
Ø Opposes one-man-one-woman marriage proposition.
Ø Opposed Defense of Marriage Act.
Ø Supports gay equality.
Ø Voted against constitutional ban of same-sex marriage.

“We can find common ground between pro-choice and pro-life.”
“Being gay or lesbian is not a choice”
“Homosexuality no more immoral than heterosexuality”
“Ok to expose 6-year-olds to gay couples; they know already”
“Gay rights movement is somewhat like civil rights movement”
“Undecided on whether life begins at conception”
“Let each denominations decide on recognizing gay marriage”
"… in a way that is consistent with my strong belief in equal rights for gays and lesbians. And I don't want there to be any confusion about that."

Although, Obama claims to be a Christian, it is apparent from his voting history and personal quotes that his belief system has been tainted by his time at TUCC. The Bible declares all life to be sacred per Jeremiah 1:5; Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. (KJV) The Word also states conclusively in Leviticus 18:22; Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.(KJV) Sadly, because Obama has no true biblical understanding of who and what a Christian is suppose to be he has embraced inclusion and calls it “change”.

While the aforementioned circumstances are shocking enough, Obama’s campaign has caused further negative cultural and spiritual ramifications. His campaign has reflected poorly on the Black community and specifically the Black Church in two specific ways. The first of which exposed the real “Reverend” Jesse Jackson. He insulted Obama following comments Obama made concerning irresponsibility in the Black community. Jackson’s repulsive insult ultimately casts Blacks in a despicable light. [13] How so? Adamant Jackson supporters reverence his “victimization gospel”, propagating the spirit of victimhood in the Black community. While the “Black leader” did apologize for his reprehensible comments, he neglected to comment on the true state of rampant irresponsibility in the Black community. Thus, furthering the disparaging stereotype that Blacks simply refuse to take responsibility for their actions, will rebuke anyone calling for proactivity in the Black community and will blindly support anyone willing to advocate continued Black victimhood. Worse still, is the negative influence projected by the repetitive showcasing of the repugnant “sermons” of Jeremiah Wright. As his “sermons” began circulating in the mainstream media copious numbers of Black churches came to the “rescue” of Wright, enabling a misinformed, progressively dangerous dialogue concerning the perceived denigration of the “Black religious tradition” [14] in the mainstream media. Yes, America has committed crimes against Blacks, however damning our country, openly celebrating Farrakhan, asserting the vile untruth that Whites created AIDS to exterminate minorities, referring to the Savior as a poor black man, is simply angry and wantonly ignorant. Due to this embarrassing display, people all over the world were led to believe that the “Black religious tradition” is bigoted, anti-American, malicious, purposefully derisive and Anti-Christ.

So, ask yourself, how is it that one can go from relative political obscurity, and to pace toward becoming “the most powerful man in the world” in less than a few years? Some say he has the favor of God. He is blessed because he is a God-fearing, family man, who cares about the disenfranchised and will make a positive “change” in our country. While all of those things are beautiful and I, like most, wish it was indeed the case, the truth is ugly and alarming. The incredible and incomprehensible influence of Obama’s campaign is in fact all part of the Anti-Christ agenda. The same spirit that motivated Stalin, Nero, Hussein, Castro, Napoleon and Hitler from obscurity to pacing towards ruling the world is in fact the same Anti-Christ Spirit that simply enamors people to Obama for no true rational or tangible reason. No, the message is NOT that Obama is motivated by scapegoating and massacring innocent people and no, the message is NOT that he is the Anti-Christ either. In this instance, Obama is like Joel Osteen or Oprah, a pawn of the spirit of the Anti-Christ sent to usher in a more prevalent inclusionary spirit, mindset and lifestyle into the United States. Satan understands that multiculturalism, socialism, tolerance and, political correctness are important and far reaching concepts that will eventually lead to a one world order. Therefore, it would be advantageous for Satan to choose a man deeply motivated by “Inclusionary Gospel”. Additionally, by influencing the President of a country containing more than 200 million Christians [15] Satan can easily advance his one world doctrine.

Yes, politics is full of unsubstantiated promises; Obama’s campaign exhibits a level of demagoguery heretofore unseen and unheard of in a Presidential race. Just as a point of reference, the powers of the President are as follows: [16]

Ø He shall from time to time give to the Congress Information of the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient;
Ø He may, on extraordinary Occasions, convene both Houses, or either of them, and in Case of Disagreement between them, with Respect to the Time of Adjournment, adjourning them to such Time as he shall think proper;
Ø He shall receive Ambassadors and other public Ministers;
Ø He shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed, and
Ø He shall Commission all the Officers of the United States.

Unbeknownst to most people the majority of Obama’s “change” is not in his power as President.
I am sure that God understands the personal pride the Black community feels concerning Obama’s historical run for the White House. Particularly since we feel as though this is the realization of Dr. King’s dream,

"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal…
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character..."

In truth, writing these words in tandem with the very thought of the President, First Lady and the first family being Black, brings tears to my eyes. Nevertheless, the onus is upon us to realize the truth of this situation, stand up for holiness, pray and fast for guidance and turn to Christ for answers.

Hence, the sad truth is Satan's major success, in deceiving a nation, is due to a lack of discernment on the part of the Body of Christ; 1 John 2:20 states; But ye have an unction from the Holy One, and ye know all things. The Holy Spirit has blessed Christians with an unction, an anointing or ability to discern the works of the spirit of the Anti-Christ. (KJV) Though, when it comes to Obama, Christians, especially Black Christians, tend to ignore that unction in an effort to celebrate our culture. We are to always first, seek the Kingdom of God; no amount of culture usurps our responsibility to the Almighty. Exodus 20:3 commands; Thou shalt have no other gods before me. (KJV) We must not choose sycophantic worship of a man and decide to turn a blind eye to sin. This is unacceptable in the eyes of Christ. People are blind to the forces of supernatural evil that are operating and influencing political, social, and religious aspects of life. This being the case, God would have the Body of Christ to be on their toes concerning the Anti-Christ agenda. God’s People must never forget this one truth, “Nothing is as it seems when Satan is involved.”

As Always,

The Anti-Christ's most powerful weapon. Part I

2008-07-07T01:21:00.001-04:00

Salutations, Beautiful Believers!

Much love and respect for you, your Church Founder, Pastor, Ministry and Church Family as a whole, as well as praying that the following editorial will serve as an instrument of enlightenment.

This particular series of editorials might come across as didactic to some because of the crucial and urgent nature of its message. In fact, this editorial as well as those to follow will speak directly to the crux of the Anti-Christ agenda. Satan is well aware that as the Body of Christ there are certain things that the majority of Christians will never do. It is a given that sins such as cursing the name of God, practicing witchcraft, blaspheming the Holy Ghost or actions equally as severe as these are simply out of the question. In fact, most Christians steer clear of adultery, homosexuality, whore mongering, back biting and the like as well. However, there is one sin that Satan is acutely aware that Believers have the propensity to commit, often and in earnest. As Believers we often unknowingly commit and knowingly embrace the sin of “Subtle Compromise”. “Subtle Compromise” is dubious and elusive in its deception. Thus the caveat, Satan is well aware of this fact and as such he uses it against us often in an effort to systematically manipulate us into distancing ourselves from Christ. This separation from Christ always comes in seemingly innocuous ways. The following is one of those seemingly innocent means of “Subtle Compromise”.

Truthfully, the influence entertainment plays in the life of true Believers has become increasingly disturbing. Due to the fact, media and entertainers have the ability to sway Believers, while methodically transforming them into foolish fanatics. As a point of reference, fanatic and its derivatives are from the Latin fanaticus. Meaning inspired by a deity or spirit, frenzied, a person marked or motivated by an extreme unreasoning enthusiasm, possessed with or motivated by excessive, irrational zeal. (Merriam Webster, 1918) These fanatics ultimately excuse the actions of those who will and have literally tainted and defiled our world, our children and our belief system as a whole. So please be advised if the following mirrors or offends you, you may in fact be one of those fanatics.

It is extremely distressing that we are living in a day and time when God’s People will fight to protect their favorite celebrity as opposed to measuring their actions against the Word of our Lord. As written in Deut. 22:5, The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God,. (KJV) This is undisputable truth however, for some sick misguided reason Tyler Perry, a self proclaimed Christian, chooses to act in plays, videos, sitcoms and movies as a woman named “Madea”. Strangely, this character is not a Christian; in fact “its” claim to fame is “its” disrespectful smarmy attitude, the guns “it” totes and marijuana “it” smokes. Even so, this “Madea” character is often the conduit for moral change in Perry’s simplistic, “ebonics” ridden, and atrociously stereotypical brand of entertainment. Nonetheless, Christian audiences have come to admire Perry’s ”Madea” and in spite of the transvestism and despite the fact that according to prayzehymnonline.com, Perry is under investigation by several critical sources. It seems that in homosexual circles there are claims that “Madea” was heavily ripped-off from “Ms. Sophia McIntosh”, a popular transvestite from Atlanta. It seems that while frequenting Atlanta’s homosexual clubs Perry drew strong inspiration from watching “it” perform. Nevertheless, and regardless of the Word of God, it seems Christian audiences disobediently and disproportionately support Perry and his decision to act as a transvestite. Thus, begging the question, why? There are two distinct schools of thought on why Believers are acting in such a manner. We will call the former, “The Excuses” and the latter, “The Truth”.

“The Excuses”

∞ He is speaking to and for us.
∞ We must support those of us telling our story.
∞ He is teaching Christian values.
∞ He is a Christian.
∞ He is a self made millionaire.
∞ My family is just like that.
∞ He is giving work to our actors.
∞ I learn a lot from his movies.
∞ It is so funny.

“The Truth”

∞ His message has been tainted by the sin of transvestism!
∞ He chooses to act as a transvestite as opposed to hiring a woman!
∞ His message has been tainted by promoting drug use!
∞ His message has been tainted by promoting the use of firearms!
∞ His message has been tainted by the use of foul language!
∞ He is a carnal Christian serving carnal Christians!
∞ Satan blesses those who work for his agenda!
∞ His product serves an underutilized portion of the market, so of course he is going to be successful!
∞ He is little more than a pawn of the Anti-Christ agenda whose job is to undermine the Body of Christ and continuously weaken the male image in the Church and in the black community, period!

As stated in 1 Corinthians 5:12, For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within? (KJV) These issues would be of no true consequence if Tyler Perry was not targeting Christians and professing to be a Christian as well. However, as all true Believers know, once one becomes a child of Christ, there is a standard that must be adhered to in one’s life. As aforementioned, it is an abomination before God for men to wear women’s clothing, period. Furthermore, 1 Corinthians 6:9 reads, Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, (KJV). In accordance with the Word of God a man that acts as a woman, for any reason is unrighteous and will not inherit the Kingdom of God. In a case such as this, why would one support the craft or efforts of a man who chooses to act as a transvestite while endeavoring to teach appropriate mores, folkways and Christian values when his transvestism is the antithesis of the lesson? It is foolishness to the highest degree. Christians morass in “Subtle Compromise” vehemently fight against this message because they would rather laugh and be coddled by a transvestite who makes “its” millions mocking the Body of Christ, as opposed to discerning such foolishness for what it truly is, demonic misdirection and sleight of hand.

As we laugh and genuflect at the altar of “Madea” we allow “Subtle Compromise” to come in and exchange our Godliness for acceptance of everything “it” stands for beyond transvestism. By continuously accepting this as entertainment we are subconsciously approving the acceptance of effeminate and /or homosexual men as well as the continued emasculation of black men, due to the demonic spirit associated with fanaticism and “Subtle Compromise”. Simply put, the more you see it the more you accept it. Ask yourself why are there so many homosexuals on television or why is BET now showing an all male homosexual show? Mind you, the subject of Tyler Perry’s sexual preference is a moot point. The state of our sons and our male Christian leaders is the quintessence of this issue. Moreover, Daniel 11:37 states as it pertains to the Anti-Christ, Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all. (KJV) Meaning that in addition to his disregard for the true and living God, the Anti-Christ will be vain, self-exalting and have no desire for woman. This verse describes your average homosexual man. God’s People, this would be easy if it was just about a man in a dress. Sadly, it goes far beyond, “Madea”. Satan is setting the stage right before our eyes and we are laughing so hard we cannot see or think straight, no pun intended.

This being the case, why does the Church give a platform to effeminate and/or homosexual men? Is it because they are so animated or speak with fervor when testifying, preaching, singing, prophesying or directing the choir? Or is it because while great numbers of masculine men have abandoned their posts, our women have had to take on the daunting task of running both the home and ministry and while doing so an increasing number of “safe” effeminate and/or homosexual men have slipped in to assist? Realistically, if the Church was honest with itself, we would all realize that foolishness like “Madea” is little more than a reflection of the Church’s sin of “Subtle Compromise” leading us to fanaticism for anyone who gives us that good feeling or entertains us.

In summation, for those who simply choose to be obtuse or still do not see why what Perry is doing is an affront to the Body of Christ and not just entertainment. Picture if you will your Bishop, Pastor, Prayer-band leader, Minister, or Church elder sauntering up to the pulpit or to you, dressed as the opposite sex telling jokes and engaging in serious discourse regarding the importance of a strong family and marriage, how would you react? How long would it take to find another church? Would you advise others to be leery of that church’s brand of ministry? Or knowing the Word of God, would you laugh and wait with bated breath for next Sunday so you can invite your friends, family and co-workers to see this great brand of ministry? God’s People the reality of the situation is this, the Bible teaches us time and again that these things are wrong, honestly, there is no question. Why would anyone sacrifice their living soul and possibly their sons for a couple of laughs? Whatever answers suit you remember the Word of God every time you decide that the works of Tyler Perry are an excellent way to entertain yourself, family and friends.

God’s People must never forget this one truth,“Nothing is as it seems when Satan is involved.”

As Always,
