I was raised as a Methodist; and had stopped going to church for many years. I had decided to go back and the Sunday school lessons were read from a book each Sunday that was sent to the church. It did not teach the bible, but pertained to Christian living.
So as the Sunday school teacher read through this book, he would ask questions such as, "Do you ever pray for our political leaders?" So some of the people said, "yes,'' and said no more.
My blood pressure went up and I said, "What can you possibly pray for with who we have in the White House?" He just told the Boy Scout that they should let homosexuals in their organization. He is taking religion out of the military. He is protecting the Muslims that are coming in to kill Christians. He is for abortions and partial birth abortions?" Do we pray that he picks the right homosexual for the job?"
Then the Sunday school teacher started saying that I was making it political and started defending the President. I asked him since when did he go to the polls and vote party over Christianity on either side. This isn't about Democrat or Republican. Christianity first now and always from this point on... He told the preacher that I bought up politics in the Sundays School class, which was not so, as he asked if I prayed for the leaders.
As I was talking to the preacher, I told him about how the Sunday School teacher turned it from Christianity into politics. The preacher said that we shouldn't be talking politics in the church.
I told him that this is exactly is what is wrong with America. You have a Sunday School room in there that listened to the Sunday school teacher defend Obama doing the "right thing over politics vs Christianity, and the church stands behind it. And this is exactly what happened in Germany. I can't believe that this whole Church is going to support this. I told him that I came here to learn more about the Bible and it isn't being taught here.
I told him a lot more than what I can type, but I could not attend this church. He said, "I hate to see you go."
My mother said he gave a sermon two Sundays after that about exactly what I was speaking about. Not to go to the polls and vote for the party but vote Christianity.
I have stayed home after that, and would like to go back to a church, but I am afraid that someone else will say something about this and it sends me through the roof. I cannot keep my mouth shut about this. Once I hear people defend it, and the others will sit there and act like they don't hear it.
That is the very reason Goliath got killed because he was mocking and putting down God and David was not going to hear of it. No one else would defend God, as they ran backwards. Goliath laughed at him and David took his sling shot and God made sure that stone landed right in the center of that tiny hole in the face of his helmet.
The US was founded completely on religion. The first Bible was printed as text book for schools to keep the children from going astray. From what I can find most of the men that signed the Declaration of Independence was either a Theologian, a Minister, or a very religious person.
Does anyone else have this problem in the church of people taking a stand with Obama's practices and everyone keeping silent?
