"My Muslim Faith"


Sunday during an interview with George Stephanopoulos, Barack Obama made a very interesting statement. He was talking about his faith and used the words, "my muslim faith." Now I'm not saying he is or is not a muslim, but what concerns me is that a nation that was founded on "in God we trust" is promoting a man who is obviously confused about his religion. Matthew 15:18 says, "But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart, and these make a man 'unclean." He may not have meant to say it publicly, but it came from his heart.

After 9/11 and the attacks on our nation, the beheading of American men, the suicide bombers that have taken American lives, all done by radical muslims, we are at a place in our nations history where we might possibly elect a man named Barack Obama.

The media has told us we can't use his middle name, we can't talk about his past connections with Saudi Arabia, known terrorists, and preachers that preach hate, not the "good news of christ," but lets talk about Sarah Palin's church that is openning its doors to gay's to pray for them and believe that God would deliever them from the spirit of homosexuality. Lets talk about Sarah Palins family, but please don't talk about Obama.

In this election we have an opportunity to promote a women that believes in the bible, lives by the bible, and stands by the bible. Is she perfect? NOPE, are you? She is the most grounded christian political leader that we have. I can bank on one thing, she would never refer to her faith as "muslim faith." Why? Because her faith is her life, not just a political statement.
