Consider
“homosexual rights.” Obama wants to repeal the Defense of Marriage
Act, which allows states not to recognize same-sex marriage performed
in other states. In other words he is trying to get a law passed that
says we have to recognize homosexual life style as a excepted way of
life. Obama and his congressional allies also are pushing hard the
Employment Non-Discrimination Act. This would punish employers who
differentiate against homosexuals in hiring practices. Is this
government control or not? Then
there are so-called hate crimes laws, which would criminalize “hate
speech,” including speech critical of homosexuality. The White House
states that Obama “will strengthen federal hate crimes legislation…and
increase hate crimes protection…” Congress is now at work on hate
crimes legislation that could lead to prosecuting those who speak out
against homosexuality. Christian pastors and conservative politicians
in Europe and Canada have been fined and jailed under similar laws.
Where is our freedom of religion? Has it gone out the door when Obama
came in? As Christians our stand should be this: We hate the sin of
homosexuality. It is a sin, But we have a love for the homosexual. They
have a soul that will spend eternity somewhere. How is that a hate
crime? The word of God plainly condemns that sin. I will firmly stand
behind what the word of God says about homosexuals, not what the
government says is right. I will believe what is Biblically correct,
not what is politically correct. I firmly believe with all my heart
that any nation that promotes and condones this sin is in its last
stages of decay. Obama wants us to condone homosexuals but at the same
time says that we are not a Christian nation any more, but we are a
nation of citizens. This sounds exactly like the old Roman empire in
Jesus' day.
Barack
Obama’s assaults on the family have been felt most deeply by its most
least protected members of our society: the unborn and the elderly.
Not many days into his presidency, Obama overturned by executive order,
the policy, which said organizations receiving taxpayer funds could not
promote or perform abortions overseas. He also said he “looks
forward” to giving taxpayer dollars to the United Nations Population
Fund which promotes abortion overseas and supports China’s sinful
one-child policy.
In
early March Obama overturned President Bush’s executive order limiting
federal funding of human embryonic stem cell research. While Obama’s
decision was expected, it was also curious in that it came at a time
when effective and moral alternatives are providing treatments and
cures to scores of ailments. In a memorandum issued on the day he
overturned Bush’s limitations, Obama stated that his move would restore
“scientific integrity” to government decision-making. While he is
restoring that he is destroying the Christians morals of this country.
But, due to the advances of alternative and ethical forms of stem cell
research, many leading scientists believe there is no longer a need to
have human embryos for research. Obama’s decision showed that without
that he does not intend to allow ethical science to get in the way of
advancing his radical anti-life agenda. Nor will he allow taxpayers
off the hook for paying for it. President
Obama’s most blatant assault on the family was his decision to get rid
of a regulation that gives the right to doctors and other health
workers not to take part in abortion or sterilization, a move that is
opposed by the overwhelming majority of Americans, including most
doctors. This will mean if you are a Christian it will come
down to your profession or your salvation. How sad that this nation has
gone that far. I believe with all my heart that we are just a stones
throw from the coming of the Lord. Even so come Lord Jesus!
On
physician-assisted suicide, the Obama administration has quietly taken
steps toward forcing all Americans to comply with its liberal view of
human life. The stimulus bill included $1 billion for research into
creating guidelines to direct doctors' treatment of difficult high cost
medical problems. You know what that means and what that will lead to!
This created an Office of the National Coordinator for Health
Information Technology within the Department of Health and Humans
Services. Part of the new office’s duty will be to “reduce health care
costs resulting from inefficiency, medical errors, inappropriate care,
duplicative care, and incomplete information.” Thanks to the Obama ,
government employees may soon have more to say about your medical
treatment that you receive than you or your doctor. This is wrong and
should not be but it is coming.
The
most extreme elements of President Obama’s agenda involve compelling
all Americans to conform with the Left’s radical views on the meaning
of sexuality and human life. But there are a host of other actions
that Obama has taken that should concern anyone who cares about the
family. Few things
have been as hard hit by the recession as charitable organizations.
But Obama recently reduced in the Fiscal Year 2010 budget the amount
that some families can deduct from their income taxes for charitable
giving. Never has this been done before! This move disproportionately
affects religious organizations and nonprofit organizations , many of
whose existence depend on charitable giving. By transferring wealth
and power from religious and community-based programs to the government
, our community organizer president cuts away vital lifelines for those
vulnerable citizens who depend on the community help he at one time
endorsed. This is not all the list of Barack Obama’s assaults
on human life and family during his first 100 days in power. This is no
time for Christian conservatives to stop standing up for what is right.
We need to be in must prayer about these things. Millions of Americans
who oppose Obama’s radical agenda either failed to vote last November
or voted for Obama with the false belief that he would govern as a
moderate. We must pray always for God to intervene in these matters.
The prayers of a righteous man avails much. We must put our faith 100%
in Jesus Christ. He is the answer to these problems.
Given
the speed and determination of attacks on these issues important to
conservatives, not to mention the important battles that are coming,
and possible Supreme Court appointments -- pro-family conservatives
need to step up efforts to educate Americans on what is happening and
on the importance of voting their values and their faith. We must
realize the importance of calling on God in prayer. It is beyond me how
any professing Christian can vote for and support a man that goes
against everything that a Christian should stand for. True Christians
do not do that. The love of many will wax cold! The true Christian will
stand up for what is right and moral. A question that all Christians
can ask their self is this: "WHAT WOULD JESUS DO?" I can tell you this
he would be against the polices in this article and if you call
yourself a Christian then you must take a stand against the very things
that would tear down our country and goes against the teachings of
Jesus Christ. No matter what our race, sex, or age is we must stand for
the Christian principles that we believe in. We can not hate Obama but
we as Christians must hate the ungodly things that he stands for and is
promoting. We must pray for this man that he might be saved and turn
from the way he is going. With God all things are possible! Only
believe!
