Why I Can't Vote For Obama By Huntley Brown
Dear Friends,
A few months ago I was asked for my perspective on Obama, I
sent out an email with a few points. With the election just
around the corner I decided to complete my perspective.
Those of you on my e-list have seen some of this before but
it's worth repeating.
First I must say whoever wins the election will have my
prayer support. Obama needs to be commended for his
accomplishments but I need to explain why I will not be
voting for him.
Many of my friends process their identity through their
blackness.
I process my identity through Christ. Being a Christian (a
Christ follower) means He leads I follow. I can't
dictate the terms He does because He is the leader.
I can't vote black because I am black, I have to vote
Christian because that's who I am. Christian first,
black second. Neither should anyone from the other ethnic
groups vote because of ethnicity. 200 years from now I
won't be asked if I was black or white. I will be asked
if I knew Jesus and accepted Him as Lord and Savior.
In an election there are many issues to consider but when a
society gets abortion, same-sex marriage, embryonic
stem-cell research, human cloning to name a few, wrong
economic concerns will soon not matter.
We need to follow Martin Luther King's words, don't
judge someone by the color of their skin but by the content
of their character. I don't know Obama so all I can go
off is his voting record.
His voting record earned him the title of the most liberal
senator in the US Senate in 2007.
NATIONAL JOURNAL: Obama: Most Liberal Senator in 2007
(01/31/2008)
To beat Ted Kennedy and Hilary Clinton as the most liberal
senator, takes some doing. Obama accomplished this feat in 2
short years. I wonder what would happen to America if he had
four years to work with.
There is a reason Planned Parenthood gives him a 100 %
rating.
There is a reason the homosexual community supports him.
There is a reason Ahmadinejad, Chavez, Castro, Hamas etc. love him.
There is a reason he said he would nominate liberal judges
to the Supreme Court.
There is a reason he voted against the infanticide bill.
There is a reason he voted No on the constitutional ban of
same-sex marriage.
There is a reason he voted No on banning partial birth
abortion.
There is a reason he voted No on confirming Justices
Roberts and Alito. These two judges are conservatives and
they have since overturned partial birth abortion. The same
practice Obama wanted to continue. Let's take a look at the practice he wanted to
continue.
THE 5 STEP PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION PROCEDURE
A. Guided by ultrasound, the abortionist grabs the (live)
baby's leg with forceps.
B. The baby's leg is pulled out into the birth canal.
C. The abortionist delivers the baby's entire body,
except for the head.
D. The abortionist jams scissors into the baby's skull.
The scissors are then opened to enlarge the hole.
E. The scissors are removed and a suction catheter is
inserted. The child's brains are sucked out, causing the
skull to collapse. The dead baby is then removed. God help
him.
There is a reason Obama opposed the parental notification
law.
Think about this: you can't give a kid an aspirin
without parental notification but that same kid can have an
abortion without parental notification. This is insane.
There is a reason he went to Jeremiah Wright's church
for 20 years.
Obama tells us he has good judgment but he sat under
Jeremiah Wright teaching for 20 years. Now he is condemning
Wright's sermons. I wonder why now?
Obama said Jeremiah Wright led him to the Lord and
discipled him. A disciple is one in training. Jesus told us
in Matthew 28:19 - 20 'Go and make disciples of allnations.' This means reproduce yourself. Teach people tothink like you, walk like you, talk like you believe whatyou believe etc. The question I have is what did JeremiahWright teach him?Would you support a White President who went to a churchwhich has tenets that said they have a:1. Commitment to the White Community2. Commitment to the White Family3. Adherence to the White Work Ethic4. Pledge to make the fruits of all developing and acquired skills available to the White Community. 5. Pledge to Allocate Regularly, a Portion of Personal Resources for Strengthening and Supporting White Institutions 6. Pledge allegiance to all White leadership who
espouse and embrace the White Value System
7. Personal commitment to embracement of the White Value System.
Would you support a President who went to a church like
that?
Just change the word from white to black and you have the
tenets of Obama's former church. If President Bush was a
member of a church like this, he would be called a racist.
Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton would have been marching
outside.
This kind of church is a racist church. Obama did not wake
up after 20 years and just discovered he went to a racist
church. The church can't be about race. Jesus did not
come for any particular race. He came for the whole world.
A church can't have a value system based on race. The
churches value system has to be based on biblical mandate.It does not matter if it's a white church or a blackchurch it's still wrong. Anyone from either race thatattends a church like this would never get my vote.Obama's former Pastor Jeremiah Wright is a disciple of liberal theologian James Cone, author of the 1970 book A Black Theology of Liberation. Cone once wrote: 'Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. Cone is the man Obama's mentor looks up to. Does Obama believe this? So what does all this mean for the nation? In the past when the Lord brought someone with the beliefs of Obama to lead a nation it meant one thing - judgment.
Read 1 Samuel 8 when Israel asked for a king.
First God says in 1 Samuel 1:9 'Now listen to them; but
warn them solemnly and let them know what the king who will
reign over them will do.'
Then God says
1 Samuel 1:18 ' When that day comes, you will cry out
for relief from the king you have chosen, and the LORD will
not answer you in that day.' 19 But the people refused
to listen to Samuel. 'No!' they said. 'We want a
king over us. 20 Then we will be like all the other nations,
with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our
battles.' 21 When Samuel heard all that the
People said, he repeated it before the LORD. 22 The LORD
answered, 'Listen to them and give them a king.'
Here is what we know for sure.
God is not schizophrenic
He would not tell one person to vote for Obama and one to
vote for McCain. As the scripture says, a city divided
against itself cannot stand, so obviously many people are
not hearing from God.
Maybe I am the one not hearing but I know God does not
change and Obama contradicts many things I read in scripture
so I doubt it.
For all my friends who are voting for Obama can you really
look God in the face and say; Father based on your word, I
am voting for Obama even though I know he will continue the
genocidal practice of partial birth abortion. He might have
to nominate three or four Supreme Court justices, and I am
sure he will be nominating liberal judges who will be making
laws that are against you. I also know he will continue to
push for homosexual rights, even though you destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for this. I know I can look the other way because of the economy. I could not see Jesus agreeing with many of Obama's positions. Finally I have two questions for all my liberal> friends.Since we know someone's value system has to be placedon the nation,1. Whose value system should be placed on the nation?2. Who should determine that this is the right value systemfor the nation?Blessings,Huntley Brown
