Reason #6: Obama is Associated with Black Liberation Theology
Hello, I am Rev. Don Hamer, on behalf of the Christian Anti-Defamation Commission, with reason number 6 why Barack Obama, who claims to be a Christian, is not a Christian by any historic or biblical standard.
For 20 years Barack Obama was a member of a Trinity United Church of Christ, one of the most radical “Afro-centric” churches in America, lead by Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
Rev. Wright is a self described Black Liberation theologian who, according to Obama, was his spiritual mentor.
Rev. Wright railed against the United States after the attacks of September 11th saying, “Not God bless America, God D*** America!”
Wright preached that 9/11 was God’s “payback” to the United States for “ignoring black concerns.”
Wright even said that HIV/AIDS (HIV / AIDS Victims 2) is a plot, orchestrated by the U.S. government, to kill blacks.
Obama initially defended Wright, but then resigned from the church only after Wright’s radical views became a political liability.
Black Liberation theology is from the 1970s and is based upon Marxism, socialism and class warfare. Although discredited decades ago, it still lives on at Obama’s home church.
According to Black Liberation Theologian, James Cone, racial identity trumps the fact that he is a Christian.
"The fact that I am Black is my ultimate reality… it is impossible for me to surrender this basic reality for a ‘higher, more universal’ reality.”
“Black theology knows no authority more binding than the experience of oppression itself. This alone must be the ultimate authority in religious matters.”
Black liberation theology declares that whites are essentially evil and are to be viewed as the enemy. "Whiteness as revealed in the history of America, is the expression of what is wrong with man. It is a symbol of man’s depravity… the coming of Christ means… destroying the white devil in us… in white racist society, Christian obedience can only mean being obedient to blackness, it’s glorification and exaltation… all white churches (are) anti-Christian in their essence."
The fact is, there is a mixture of good and evil in every person and in every race. All have sinned and fall short of God’s glory. Jesus rejected race based theology.
The Jews and the Samaritans of Christ’s day despised each other and even had rival places of worship, but Jesus said to a Samaritan woman. “The hour is coming and now is when the true worshippers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship him.” John 4:23
True worship, according to Jesus, transcends a person’s race.
By creation, all mankind share one blood. In redemption, all who believe, from any race, are saved by Christ. In heaven there will people of every tongue, tribe, people and nation in heaven who have been saved by God’s grace in Jesus Christ.
Who are you going to believe, Jesus or Obama’s black liberation theology?
