"Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples, “The scribes and the Pharisees sit on Moses' seat, so practice and observe whatever they tell you—but not what they do. For they preach, but do not practice. They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on people's shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to move them with their finger. They do all their deeds to be seen by others. For they make their phylacteries broad and their fringes long," ... matthew 23:1
i am not one to back down from a fight when it comes to what is right and wrong. i am not saying that i am always right, but i do know crap when i see it. currently the obama administration is saying the president has no control over what congress does. is that reality? congress can pass legislation, but the president has to sign it into law. he can veto it, or pass it.
obama's own administration is saying that the president doesn't have control over what congress is doing - that is lie. every president, democrat and republican has used the office to their advantage just with that one constitutional law.
our own president can't run on his policies and what he has approved, because the economy has gotten worse since he came into office. he would rather slam every person that is against his ideology than stand on his record. his own administration says he his going after mitt romney's life, because he can't run on his leadership. fight fire with fire mr. romney if you're the GOP candidate. he likes to blame the congress, and says he can't do anything about it. he has the power to veto, or approve it. that right there says he does have the power to do it.
we are still at war, and we have added a new one. he and mrs. clinton have said that they are trying to spread freedom and democracy. why then would he tell the only democratic country, israel, to surrender it's borders to the dictatorships of the middle east? why would they continually give aid and support to countries that don't believe in freedom? why would he continue to approve funding for wars he doesn't believe in? why didn't he act on the promise of bringing troops home, and continue what bush did? bush did the same thing after not bringing the troops after 9/11 everytime he asked congress for more money.
americans voted against the republicans in 2006, and put democrats in office because of the wars. well, why did they continue to approve funding when bush asked for it? they said it was because they didn't want our troops to be in further danger. they just approved defense cuts that put our troops in more danger, and the president signed the bill. if he cared about our troops why would he do that? why wouldn't he just bring them home?
why would a president allow a health care bill to pass so americans could have affordable health care, but we are seeing costs of co-pays and drugs going up? why he is allowing medicare for our seniors to be cut by $500 billion dollars in the new budget if he truly cared about our seniors? he justed signed the bill, and he knew what was in it.
"But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever" 1 timothy 5:8
what kind of man would say that they cannot pay social security when that money is supposed to be there? when he says that to our seniors, and americans he is admitting they stole it. we wouldn't have defaulted we have enough in tax revenue a month coming in to cover those costs, and cover the interest on our loans.
if he truly wanted us out of debt and wanted to balance the budget why would he allow passage of a bill that raises our debt ceiling and adds 7 trillion dollars to the deficit in the next 10 years? he had the chance to solve all of that before the dems were booted in 2010. he had a complete democratic congress to solve these problems for 2 years. why didn't he make the cuts that s&p told him he had to make and not raise debt ceiling, or else we would lose our AAA rating? it is not s&p's fault for losing our credit rating; it is congress and our president's fault.
if he believes that corporations need to pay more in taxes then why would he allow his jobs czar, ceo of GE, to not pay anything in taxes? if he wanted job creation why would he allow a 115 year old division of GE to move to china? if he wanted to invest in education why would he allow GE to invest 2 billion dollars in educating chinese engineers?
if white people hate black people so much why would so many of white americans vote for a black man to become president? why would he let black men believe that blacks aren't equal, continue to deprive them of liberty based on their circumstance, or where they live? why wouldn't he tell them you are man, and you have a right to the freedoms of this nation just look at me and other black men that have succeeded.
if the tea party is racist then why do they support herman cain, a black man, and he got in trouble for yelling he is getting off the democratic plantation? that statement is about the history of southern democrats opposing a reblican president for ending slavery; the civil war.
why would a president, or democrats for that matter say that all republicans are racist when lincoln was a republican, and so was martin luther king jr. eisenhower was a two term republican president. he is the one before johnson that started to pursue the civil rights act in this country. why would our president jeopardize that? why would the democrats jeopardize that if that is what they believe in?
"In domestic policy the President pursued a middle course, continuing most of the New Deal and Fair Deal programs, emphasizing a balanced budget. As desegregation of schools began, he sent troops into Little Rock, Arkansas, to assure compliance with the orders of a Federal court; he also ordered the complete desegregation of the Armed Forces. "There must be no second class citizens in this country," (about eisenhower)
why would a christian man not defend christianity just as much as he does islam? why wouldn't he tell non christians to stop abusing christians, and their 1st amendment right to worship?
how can a president say that he is going to spread the wealth around, but get a tax refund of more than 12,000? where did that money go? what if he does tax the rich in this country? who is to say the wealthy won't quit their jobs and stop paying taxes? maybe they will go to a lower paying job, so they don't have to pay more.
"Jesus said to him, “If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me"
why did we have a mortgage crisis? carter and clinton really pushed equal housing in this country. forced lending institutions to give money to individuals regardless of their financial history, because in they were afraid of breaking the law. the banks should have denied those that did have the income to pay. of course the banks are at fault, because they wanted to make money off those that couldn't even pay their bills. every president has pushed our financial institutions to the brink now. i don't care which party they are in.
why do food prices keep going up, fuel, utilities and now health care; regulation is the secret tax. businesses know that if you put more regulation on them and raise taxes they can make it, so they have to raise costs to keep pay their employees and the government. every time they say they are going to raise taxes on the rich, and corporations that show profits our costs go up - every time the democrats and the president says that. people are preparing and not investing in growth, because of the government.
how can a president justify taxing corporate jets, but uses tax payer money to fly air force one everywhere to slam the american people? how can he say oil companies are bad, and we must use less fuel and still fly all over the world?
how could a president define monetary wealth when GOD defined a rich man by how much food they had, clothing, and shelter? in GOD's eyes a rich man is a man that has two loaves of bread, two coats and home. if you have food in your pantry, more than 1 shirt, and a home you are a rich man. why then would a christian deny a homeless man on the street of money, because they think they are a drug addict and alcoholic? why would they ignore the voice in their head saying give that man money if they are a christian? i heard someone say once that you shouldn't deny that voice, because that could be one of GOD's angels on earth. i always try to listen that voice and every time i deny that voice i have failed GOD.
"And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.” And he told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man produced plentifully, and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ And he said, ‘I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry." luke 12:15-21
how could a "christian" president believe in abortion, but not the death penalty? it's murder in GOD's eyes no matter the circumstance. i don't even believe in the death penalty and i live in texas. i am still having to deal with this one in my heart, because i have no problem seeing a man, or woman dying for hurting a child. we are taking GOD's power away when we decide who dies and lives. JESUS said i tell you this a man that thinks of murder in his heart then has has already committed murder. this will always be a tough one for me because i have children, and i would kill someone if they physically, or sexually abused my child. i admit it.
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.” jeremiah 1:5
"You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire." matthew 15:1
i have a big problem with individuals that say we are to help people, but allow the government to do it for them. who is the government helping now? see i am not allowed really to ask what another gives, before i look in my own heart about what i am willing to give. once i open my mouth i better be doing what HE told me, because HE is going to give me a much harsher judgement for it. i am going to take a chance though. if you say you are christian, and you put your faith in this president and his ideology i don't see how could you be a christian.
"For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned" romans 12:3
his actions speak far louder than words, and he does have the power to change this. he is supposed to be our leader.every nation since from the book of genesis to revelations has fallen, because of the ruling class. some say revelations is about the fall of the roman empire. if that is so then we are repeating history. GOD crushed them like a pea when they turned from HIM.
"Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience ..." romans 13:1-7
HE saved the men and women that gave fully to HIM. each individual was judged by their heart; not the society. israel has fallen away time and time again from HIM, but they are HIS chosen. every nation and man that has gone against israel, and killed HIS chosen have fallen or will fall. when CHRIST died on the cross so we could be free from sin it wasn't a group that HE paid for - it was the individual. HE bought each one of us with THE BLOOD OF HIS SON and released us from the old laws, so we could be free to fully become HIS. see we can discuss scripture and interpret what HE is trying tell us, but we really won't know the full impact of following or not following HIM until we are at the gates on bended knee.
"Let the thief no longer steal, but rather let him labor, doing honest work with his own hands, so that he may have something to share with anyone in need." 4:28
