0bama and Things "Committed" Christians Don't Do:
- Hide their faith in the Private or Public squares.
- Apologize for the uniqueness of the Bible and Christianity.
- Mock the Bible and Bible-believing Christians on or off camera.
- Promote other religions by trash-talking Christianity.
- Downgrade Christianity as "just another religion that leads to Heaven."
- Attend racist-churches.
- Promote and condone sin, wickedness, or evil in any way, shape, or form.
- Promote education or politics as being the great cure to humanity's social ills and problems.
- Deny Father, Son, or Holy Spirit.
- Deny Jesus Christ as being God's Only Chosen Messiah for all of humanity.
Although I could have certainly enumerated more points to flesh this list out more, I will keep it short for brevity's sake. A true and committed Christian is one that "walks the walk and talks the talk" - not just one or the other. Perhaps President 0bama needs to parse his words a little more carefully and define how he defines the word "committed."
As a committed Christian that has been blessed with many committed friends and acquaintances, we all share one thing in common; a passionate and committed devotion to the Blessed Trinity, God's Holy Word, and evangelizing the lost with the Gospel of Jesus Christ - and ours is not a passion and devotion that can be flipped on and off like a light switch. The Bible says we are known by our fruits (our actions on public display), so how did 0bama miss this most fundamental lesson that is taught in most good churches and Sunday Schools? Saying that you are a Christian and actually living it are two entirely different animals. One can fool other men with false professions of faith, but God is never fooled or mocked.
Someone will likely misquote the Scriptures and snap back at me "judge not lest you be judged." But this one scripture only refers to judging someone's heart and motives. It does not negate the many commands of Scripture to righteously judge someone's fruits, actions, and doctrine against the pure and holy standard of God's Word. Perhaps if 0bama himself wasn't so vague and incoherent in defense of his "committed faith," and actually came across more confident in his on-again/off-again "Christian" faith, more Americans would believe him to be sincerely Christian and not Muslim, or "Muslim-leaning." After all, real Christians don't make a concerted public effort to mock Christianity and the Bible while going out of their way to promote and advance false religions (and nebulous quasi-religious political systems, like Islam, that mix a little bit of religion with a large amount of political ambitions and violence).

Thanks, Jim. And you certainly are more forgiving of the 'pretender in chief' than I! I pray daily that He remove from me the selfish, self-seeking parts of me that block the Sunlight of His spirit, that I may attain some small measure of humility...then I read the day's headlines from my emails! lol.
Just last week I found myself in one of those 'back-and-forth' debates with a poor victim of acute Kool Aid poisoning on the wrongness of denying the Cordoba mosque at ground zero. It seems his perspective, to him, was quite logical, for he copy pasted great quantities of the written language, mostly from the Treaty of Tipoli of 1796, particularly article 11.
Art. 11. As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion; as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity, of Mussulmen; and, as the said States never entered into any war, or act of hostility against any Mahometan nation, it is declared by the parties, that no pretext arising from religious opinions, shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.
My first remark was in response to Mr. Selfrighteousprogressiveleftwingidiologue's statement that all those claiming such ignorant (aka backwater) notions that somehow America was founded on or encourages Christainity is completely false and supported this hypothesis on that weary argument that no one find God or Christianity mentioned even once in the Constitution.
I believe my response was along the lines of "America WAS ABSOLUTELY founded on Christian Principles, based on Nature's Law and Nature's God, strongly influenced by the writing of John Lock, Montesquieu and William Blackstone. The wording of the Constitution came mainly from Locke, George Mason's Virginia Declaration AND Jefferson's Declaration of Independence that DECLARES "...endowed by their Creator" and calls upon "the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions" and "the pretection of Divine Providence".
I did not bother to go further and mention that the Treaty itself was neither the first nor the last treaty with the Barbery States of north Africa resulting from these Mediteranean SCOURGE that attacked, raped and pillaged. It would have also been useless to point out that these Barbary PIRATES also broke this treaty as well (it's like deja vous, huh?).
So no, there is no direct mention of God or a 'State Religion' in the Constitution itself, being a legal document meant to secure the Rights of Man as outlined in writings of ALL of our founding fathers. It is an ommission of purpose meant to relieve the fears of old, when the Protestant Church of England mandated participation by its citizens. However, as is pointed out above, the intent of our founders is quite clear.
As George Washington wrote in his Farewell Address of 1796 (same year as the Treaty of Tripoli regarding Muslims):
Let it simply be asked where is the security for property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation deserts the oaths, which are the instruments of investigation in the Courts of Justice? And let us with caution indulge the supposition, that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect that National morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle."

Thanks, Clint - but I was actually playing devil's advocate here to make the point that it takes more than empty lip service to be a true and committed Christian. I have yet to see any real evidence, or fruit, in 0bama's life that would make me think he really is Christian and not Muslim (or Muslim-leaning, as the case might be). 0bama has done much to promote and advance tolerance of Islam while mocking and denigrating Christians and the Bible at the same time. Those are clearly not the marks of a "committed Christian" . . . no matter what the idiot pundits on the network news media want the rest of us to believe.
0bama doesn't seem to understand why good folks don't believe he is a Christian, but it is 0bama himself that is giving off the wrong signals and confusing Americans - so he only has himself to blame! (But we all know that our Narcissist-in-Chief will never admit wrong in anything).
Semper Paratus!

Right you are, Jim. This man is PURE SECULARIST, through and through! In my opinion, I believe he holds NO firm religious belief, but does tend to side with society's neo-underdogs, most specifically the exploding demographics of the nation of Islam - huge numbers of supporters and potential supporters there. Obama holds allegiances where he feels HE can most benefit from them. But, again, I'm not sharing anything that you, me and a good many don't already know. He's in it for himself and the idolization his narcisism tells him he deserves.
Thanks Again!

Better question: Why would o'bomber or any other goofball liberal want to "confirm" o'bomber's being a 'Christian?' Really, they are nonstop on their rant against Christians, bible thumpers, garbling that we are "uneducated, ignorant," and bottom line always, "rednecks."
Would not being classified a 'Christian' be considered offensive to b'hussein o'bomber, as he did, with Holy Bible in hand, mock and blaspheme Scriptures as part of his campaign? Wouldn't calling this man a "Christian" be grounds for legal action to be taken against the guilty parties who dared to call this man a "Christian?" Afterall, did he NOT make the statement before God and the entire world that "this is not a Christian nation?"
Got news for the kenyan reject: As for me and my house, we will continue to serve the Lord, and irregardless of his delusional ideation that he is "the chosen; the messiah," handpicked by God to represent the United States of America, or believes that he "has a gift," he is equivocally and irrefutably the same as stain on used toilet paper.
And you are right, Jim. Committed Christians do NOT do the things in your list nor likewise many of the other incidentals that o'bomber and princess sasquatch engage in.
*And I will add this very important detail: A committed Christian does NOT - I repeat - does NOT, NOT EVER verbalize the words, "G**-d***." Were I ever to hear, especially a minister of God say such a thing, I'd jump up and knock the hell out of him!

Let's get honest here: the only reason 0bama made an issue out of calling himself a "committed Christian" is because of the upcoming November elections! The Democrats are trying to paint themselves as Christians to reach out to more mainstream voters because they know they are in very SERIOUS TROUBLE come November!
In their feeble liberal progressive minds, Dem's are always "good" and Repub's are always "evil." They just don't seem to understand that real Americans, and real Christians, can see right through their mockery and charades. November just can't come fast enough for me to vote these scoundrels out and Clean House!!! Let's see how 0bama likes being a lame-duck president his last 2 years in office (if we don't impeach him first)!

Daniel - When Liberals and Progressives inevitably confront me with the "anger" and "racist" charge, I now simply reply, "I'm not angry or racist! I'm just righteously indignant!" (Most of them have no idea how to respond to that statement).

very much agreed Osher
This generation is what got BHO elected. It was strictly a anti-Bush election and he ran on lies, smoke and mirrors. The media being in the back pockets of the liberal politicians and vice-versa (one big political orgy of disgust).
"But I honesty think that the Public has been Dumbed Down" - I think that's putting it mildly. As Ron White got the ball going... "you can't fix stupid", but it's time to try and November is around the corner.
The media will do everything they can to keep "the One" looking as innocent and caring as they can. They are in a tizzy right now and the gaskets are starting to leak. Some have already started to impload. Just the other day Ed Schultz popped his gasket and was told he would be fired if he didn't more or less calm down. I can see "Bathtubboy" Olberloon and "Tingles" Matthews being the next ones to go, or should I say, blow!!

As I was watching this viral video on YouTube today, a thought hit me. If a "good Christian" is best defined as one that takes their Christian faith seriously and passionately, should not a "good Muslim" be best defined as one that puts the same stock in Islam? If someone claims to be a Christian but doesn't live the lifestyle and ignores the greater teachings of Christianity, they are marked as either poor examples or false Christians. By the same token, how can Americanized Muslims claim to be true Muslims when they don't truly live the Islamic lifestyle and ignore the greater teachings of Islam and Sharia law? Since Islam started in the Middle East and not the United States, it seems to me that jihadists, not American Muslims, are the "true believers" in Islam. But if you listen to American infidels (especially Liberal Progressive Socialist retards), only American Muslims have "got it right" - not the far larger body of Muslims worldwide that are either condone or push violent worldwide Islamic domination, Sharia law, and terrorism over the rest of us Dhimmis.
Poor 0bama - he really cannot be classified as either a "good Christian" or a "good Muslim" by any stretch or definition. No wonder 0bama's narcissism makes him a religion unto himself! As 0bama continues his "apology tour" for America, real Americans will continue their apology tour for 0bama and this band of Socialist thugs controlling our Congress. We the People will Remember in November!
