Wednesday, April 16th - Heros: Bitter Americans

I know it feels like this blog has become one-tracked lately, all Anti-Obama and Oprah, but they just give me so much fuel!

I'm sure everyone has heard about Obama's 'small town = bitter americans' tirade, so I won't repeat it word for word here. The gist of it all is that this Elitist Liberal Socialist putz insulted every gun-owning, church attending person in this country by saying we only 'cling' to those things because we are bitter and disillusioned... I swear I am not making this up!

Couple of things to consider here. Obama is only saying what most Left-wing Liberals have been thinking for years. And that is that anyone who doesn't think exactly like them are small-minded unintellegent rednecks. At least he is being honest - well.., actually he said these things at a dinner in San Francisco and didn't know that he was being recorded... Maybe 'honest' is the wrong word.

I wonder what Barack studied in school. Best I can remember, this country was founded by people that owned guns and believed in God. Yes, they were disillusioned. By a ruler that was corrupt, unfair, and incredibly greedy. Sound familiar. Here's the difference: those disillusioned religious people banded together and did something about it. They kicked ole King George's butt. Maybe the King's fatal errors were the same as Obama's: a) he equated disillusioned with weak, and b) underestimated the power of God to help his children be free to worship Him however they choose.

Of course, it could be that what the Liberals are afraid of is exactly those things. Could be exactly why they want to take away our right to own guns and worship our God. HMMMMM....

I have to say that one of the most interesting parts of his statements are in regard to how he can relate bitterness and disillusionment to people who are 'religious'. Last time I checked, having faith and belief in God gives a person hope, joy, and peace. Of course, I don't know how someone who had that faith and belief would ever make a statement like that. Maybe the people that attend his church in Chicago don't have that peace and hope of believers. Goodness, you would think he had a pastor that, instead of preaching messages of hope and love, was preaching hatred and division! Oh... wait... Nevermind...

Not saying that Mr. Obama doesn't have the Holy Spirit. No one here on Earth can make that determination. I can say that, one way or another, he will have to explain his actions here on earth to his Creator.

Last word on this. As Christians (regardless of denomination) we can either make a statement through our votes and voices that we will not put up with this degredation of our faith, or sit back and allow the Anti-Christian (disguised as anti-religion) movement take control. We've already allowed them to take prayer out of school, shove their religion of Evolution down our children's throats, and take the Ten Commandments out of our courts.

Whites and Christians are the only groups of people that it is legal to discriminate against these days. Think about that for awhile, and think of what it will be like if we don't do something about it. At our local High Schools you can form a club for Gays and Lesbians, but not one for Heterosexual kids. Can you imagine what would happen if someone formed the NAAWP (National Association of Advancement for White People)?

I'm not saying that those other clubs are wrong. Everyone should have a right to gather together with others that share the same beliefs, hobbies, etc. as long as there's no violence or crimes involved (which excludes the KKK, Black Panthers, etc). It's when our government starts picking and choosing who has this right that I get ticked off.

Revelations 22:20 "....Even so, come, Lord Jesus."

Thursday April 10th - Zeros: Oprah Winfrey and Eckart Tolle

Man has it been busy around here.. I thought being on the road for 6 weeks was bad, but I had more free time then than now!!!

The only reason I can post right now is that one of the MAMMOTH reports I ran is taking 93 minutes to save down.. A report, by the by, that will be glanced at in a meeting where people will drone on and on in 'corporate speak' about stuff they know nothing about all in an attempt to justify their exsistence.. Anybody got an icepick I can stick in my ear???????

ANYWAY ~ Oprah has really done it this time. I am officially asking everyone to boycott her show. The woman is a false prophet. I am being serious, here. If you want to know more about it, just go look at her website. Or go to YouTube and watch her tell her audience that Jesus Christ is not the way to heaven. Watch her say that if you believe in Christ, the Cross, and a God in Heaven, then you are wrong and pathetic.

If you want to know more about the unforgivable sin of blasphemy, go to Hebrews Chapter 6, and if you want to read about the ultimate False Prophet, read the book of Revelations.

Right now, Oprah is co-teaching an online class with author Eckhart Tolle, based upon her current Book of the Month, his “A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life’s Purpose.” And, Oprah’s promoting a daily radio show on her XM channel featuring Marianne Williamson teaching from “A Course in Miracles.”

Both Tolle and Williamson are New Age thinkers. Oprah says she’s a Christian—arguing that she can reconcile “her” Christianity (she went to Jeremiah Wright's Trinity Church) with what they’re teaching. If she’s a Christian, she’s an ignorant one, because Christianity is incompatible with New Age thought.

Here’s how the two opposing worldviews, Christianity (C), and New Age (NA), answer some of the most basic worldview questions. The New Age answers are ones that would be commonly held, though certainly not universal, as the belief system is loose, eclectic and unique to each individual follower.
________________________________________________________

1. How did we get here?

Christianity (C): God created the universe at the moment of the beginning of time, matter and space, in 6 days as stated in the book of Genesis. Big Bang cosmology and all modern science affirms this if you care hear more of how, just let me know!

New Age (NA): The universe is beginning-less, endless, eternal.

2. Does God exist?—and is He personal?

C: Yes, God is personal, and the Bible teaches God is three persons sharing one essence, what Christians refer to as the Trinity. More specifically, God is tri-personal.

NA: Yes and No. Yes, God is an impersonal force that exhaustively fills every atom of the eternal universe: All is God, God is all, God is all of us and God is each of us. No, there is no personal creator called God who is outside of time, matter and space.

3. Who am I?

C: A creation of God.

NA: God.

4. How did I get here?

C: God created man with moral freedom and invited him to join the presence of the Trinity. But man exercised his freedom in rebellion to God, and now only through the work of the incarnate God and second person of the Trinity, Jesus Christ, can that severed relationship be restored.

NA: Through the infinite process of karma. As God, you are eternal, and have been reincarnating from object to object for trillions of years, and when you ultimately achieve enlightenment, and remember that you are God, you will then lose your individual sense of self and consciousness and become One with the One. (Remember, there is no personal God. God is a force. You must return to being a force.)

5. Why am I here?

C: The Westminster Catechism answers this question beautifully: The chief end of man is “to glorify God and enjoy him forever.” I am called to make a decision with eternal consequences: either accept or reject God’s offer of salvation in Jesus Christ. I am also called to help others make a correct choice; to advance the true, the good, and the beautiful; to fight evil and injustice; to work with God at reconciling the world to Himself.

NA: To pay off previous karmic debt gathered over trillions of years.

6. What is the meaning of life?

C: To glorify God.

NA: To achieve enlightenment.

7. What is the true, the good, and the beautiful?

C: God—and his goodness can be seen through his creation.

NA: Since there is no distinction between creator and creation, there can be no distinctions between true-false, good-bad, right-wrong, ugly-beautiful, or pain-pleasure.

8. What is the best life?

C: A life in the full presence of God.

NA: The life immediately before enlightenment, since you will no longer exist as a person once you remember you are God.

9. Who is the best man?

C: Jesus Christ, the Man who never sinned.

NA: “Best” is a nonsensical moral category.

10. Why is there evil, pain, suffering, and injustice?

C: The Fall. Man exercised his freedom in rebellion to God and these are the consequences.

NA: People are paying off their karmic debt. As God, we are responsible for the reality we create for ourselves through our thinking and choices. If we are suffering, it is because we are choosing to suffer. If we think differently we can alter the external world and create our own reality.

11. Why do bad things happen to good people?

C: We live in a fallen world with moral freedom. Evil and sin exist. Men hurt themselves intentionally and accidentally. Our hope is only in God who is able to bring good out of evil.

NA: Karma.

Karma and reincarnation have all kinds of fatal logical problems. Who started karma and reincarnation and why? Who decides what behavior gets rewarded and what gets punished, especially since there are no moral categories? How can there be a “who” to all this when God is a “what,” an impersonal force like gravity? How can an impersonal force help you in your relationships, heal your hurts, illnesses and wounds, help with your addictions and bad habits, lead you to confront social evils, poverty, crime, corruption, broken families, broken hearts?

12. Will good or evil ultimately triumph?

C: The resurrection of Jesus proves that good ultimately triumphs over evil.

NA: These are only apparent moral categories, they don’t really exist.

13. Is there life after death?

C: Yes! In either heaven or hell. Our destination is based on our response to the person and work of Christ.

NA: Yes and No. Yes, in that you may have trillions of more reincarnated bodies to inhabit as you pay off your karmic debt before reaching enlightenment. No, in that once you’re enlightened, you will cease to exist, since you will have remembered you’re really an impersonal force that New Age thinkers call “God.”

The New Age Movement is intellectually and spiritually bankrupt. But, it is making Tolle and Williamson—and especially Oprah—a whole bunch of money.

Peace, Love, and GOD (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit),
