The elections

Just got off the radio here in Toledo, Ohio today speaking about the Obama /Muslim connection. Had a great time. Senator Obama is here in Toledo so it seemed timely. Hopefully some were listening.

We are on another radio program next week, we are hoping to have Dr. Clifford Hill with us by phone about the Muslim agenda and the part Senator Obama is playing either through naivety or by design.

Today I spoke about what is happening in the UK and the failure of the church to give a strong biblical lead resulting in the Islamists pushing their agenda of global takeover. I read a couple excerpts from a "Newsweek" article we picked up in the British Oct. 6 edition.

The article says that after his trip to Pakistan with his college room mate, Mohammed Hasan Chandoo, the now Senator Obama, became more acutely aware of the diversity and tensions within the Muslim world. "Both as a consequence of living in Indonesia and traveling in Pakistan... I was very clear about the history of Shia-Sunni antagonism".

Obama's confidence of his knowledge of the Muslim world is so great that he has proposed holding a global summit of Muslim leaders early in his presidency. "I think I can speak credibly to them about the fact that I respect their culture, that I understand their religion, that I have lived in a Muslim country, and as a consequence I know it is possible to reconcile Islam with modernity and respect for human rights and rejection of violence. I think I can speak with an added credibility."

I commented further on Obama's Muslim roots (as the son of a Muslim father, he was born a Muslim under Muslim law as it is universally understood), he says he has chosen to be a Christian, which is a crime in the eyes of Muslims, "ridda" or apostasy. Even today a law is being debated in the Iranian Parliament that would execute anyone who leaves the Muslim faith.

As an apostate, why does he think he would be listened to?

I didn't have time to raise further questions such as, "If he is an apostate, why would so many radical groups endorse him? Hamas, April 16, 2008 "He has a vision to change America"; Fidel Castro, "He is the most advanced candidate"; Mahmoud Ahmedinejah to Spain's El Pais newspaper, He didn't believe Obama would be elected, but that "He wouldn't have a problem meeting with him if he were." Louis Farrakhan: ""When Obama talks, the Messiah is absolutely speaking..."

I stressed the need for prayer and thoughtful consideration of who we are voting for in light of this information. I stressed the urgency of reaching the Muslims for Christ in our communities as God loves them and brought them here to introduce them to Jesus. I commented on our failure to reach these Muslim leaders with the Gospel, many of them trained in western universities, while they were here.

So we are trying to move with the Holy Spirit as He is opening doors!

Thanks for praying!

The growing list of worst America-haters endorsing Obama, is mindboggling for anyone who takes 5 seconds to think about it. Ahmadinejad, Qaddafi, Hamas, Kim Jong-Il, Castro, Ortega... The list goes on, yet so many people choose to ignore this. They spend days researching the next car to buy, not to mention the next house, but somehow assume it's okay to spend 5 min researching the background of the person who have an enormous impact on everything in America. Socialism in its ugliest shape is coming to them if Obama gets elected, but they'll realize this only when it's too late.

But there are still many eyes we can open before the election. Obama keeps going up in polls because people listen to the huge propaganda machine–and take its lies at face value. We need to use more of conversation changers. More of attention grabbers that make an impact in 5 sec. And THEN those whose opinions still can be changed may start reading more. Obama’s side if excellent in creating visuals that go straight to the emotions level, bypassing logic. Just take a look at this site know what I’m talking about: http://www.designforobama.org/.

Can you name a single memorable anti-Obama poster that speaks to the center-leaning Democratic voter? If you can't, but would like to use one, visit the fast growing repository accompanied by a blog and a Facebook page that are designed fill this gap. Please take a look--it will take you only a couple of minutes to form your opinion and decide whether you'd like to use it. Your comments and suggestions are more than welcome.

Good information and respectfully explained in such a short time slot.
Your references were valid for any skeptics who might have been listening.
I hope during your next radio interview you will be able to cover many of the topics you were not able to cover during this interview.

At this point voters need to be thinking more clearly, take the blinders off their eyes, and vote for AMERICA & DEMOCRACY rather than partisan lines.
I hope when each person goes into the voting booth, or while they are casting their vote in the privacy of their own home, they will vote for the candidate who will protect America from future terrorist attacks; or from the more subtle takeover of socialism.
We have the freedom to vote and to have a say in the direction our government goes. If things continue in the direction it is going, we will lose those freedoms. Islamic nations and socialist nations do not have our freedoms.

WE are not Republicans or Democrats or Independents... WE ARE AMERICANS.
