The American Patriot's KJV Bible To Include Barack Obama

I just received this email:

"NEW BIBLE TO MENTION PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA The American Patriots Bible Incorporates Civil Rights Movement Section
(Nashville, Tenn.) The forthcoming Bible title The American Patriots Bible (May 2009, Thomas Nelson) takes readers on a powerful journey revealing how faith has seen American citizens through troubled times, as well as impacted the overall formation of this great nation. Within its pages, readers will find a special section dedicated to the pursuit of equal rights which includes figures such as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and President Barack Obama as one of the many introspectivehistoric articles featured in the title.

We are experiencing change in America, and it was essential to spotlight how faith in God has been there to strengthen the activists when a monumental fight for freedom and justice was at hand, notes Dr. Richard G. Lee who serves as the general editor for the project, as well as founding pastor of First Redeemer Church (Atlanta, GA), and speaker for the Theres Hope America ministry.

As the late Dr. King noted our actions must be guided by the deepest principles of our Christian faith, reflects Lee. Hopefully, President Obamas recent decision to engage pastors in discussions on the role of religion in politics is yet another display of how faith continues to impact our nation. The American Patriots Bible will help readers discover the cornerstone upon which America, and her great men and women, have built their lives and this one Nation under God."

There are many "themed" Bibles on the market and all of them contain commentary. So I'm thinking if God could use a burning bush or a talking ass to make himself known then I don't begrudge Thomas Nelson publishers the opportunity to use Barack Obama (who for some is also a talking ass) to lead the lost to the Word of God. Heaven knows Obama acolytes will buy a Bible which heralds their savior.

I just use a regular KJ. Theres a great book called Under God by Toby Mac and Michael Tait thats filled with stories from America's history showing how God was(and still is) working everything to his purpose.; April 16, 2009 at 10:27 PM

With all the other themed Bibles not having him included - this one sets itself apart from a business standpoint.; April 16, 2009 at 10:50 PM

Anonymous said...: Great Post! I am Right too. Buyer beware of this Chicana! ok, now back to the topic. It is weird 'to' have Barack Obama in this bible for the reason that he is Pro-Abortion~ Late Term Abortion; which means killing a full grown baby in the mother's womb then dissecting it's body parts in utero to then remove it. He's also unashamedly un-American. Most of his education comes from outside the country; I don't think he understands what it is to be an American (and yes I doubt he was born here). Also, he's not Christian if he believes that all paths lead to God. This religious pluralism goes against John 14:6 which Jesus Himself clearly states, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (no budda, no dali lama, no Deepak chopra, no Oprah, no allah! He does not Proclaim Jesus Christ and we seem to forget all the things he has done that are anti-Christ simply because he's bi-racial. And besides all that, the whole concept of this bible is wrong. People are mistaking Patriotism for the Kingdom of God. God's Kingdom is in Heaven, if we'd pick up the bible we have now and read it you wouldn't need this garbage.; September 15, 2010 at 4:41 PM
james said...: @ news4themasses. This Bible actually shows historical moments where people invoked the God of Heaven's help in the founding of our nation and at other times throughout our history. It's not just about being patriotic. It is a call to bring God back to his rightful place in our nation. I have it and it is great; however, I do agree with you that we need to use the Bible. Therein is America's problem, not using it enough.; September 16, 2010 at 10:32 PM

About

Don't let the title of this blog deceive you. Yes, I'm a Conservative Black Woman -- Not to be confused with Republican Black Woman. At this point I am in fact a Political Atheist. I believe with every fiber of my being that America is no longer a Constitutional Republic but rather a Corporate Fascist Oligarchy. Our Presidents are just the puppets, tools, spokespersons for the Powers that Be...Council of Foreign Relations and various other NGO's who are beholden to the International Banking Cabal. No, I'm not a Conspiracy Theorist -- I am a Conspiracy Researcher and I'd advise you to do the same. Who said "I would not have you ignorant?" Yes, that's my "handler" for all of those who think I have one. Over the course of writing this blog. My paradigm has shifted ENTIRELY. Yes, the paragraph below still applies but the Left\Right, Democrat\Republican head fake no longer applies to me. I WOKE UP!!!!

"I am fed up with what has happening within the black community. Too many of our families are broken, too many of us are morally degenerate and too many of us are willing to blame all of our pathology on slavery, George Bush, the Republican party or anything but our failures as Parents, Husbands, Wives and Christians."

My Favorite Quotations.....

Truth is scarcely found. But integrity and truth are hardly found within the Black population as a whole at least not where it involves black people. Most blacks have pledged allegiance to their blackness, not truth, not to America, not even to God as many profess. Integrity and truth has to go out the window if it somehow poses a threat to the "positive" image of blackness. ~Anonymous

Regarding Obama's hit on Gadhafi's family: "He's spineless and shameless, except when his masters unleash him on people of color. Then he becomes a pit bull--a real life Sambo/Quimbo doing the dirty work of Simon Legree. TPTB knew exactly what they were doing when they "selected" Obama to manage their psychopathocracy." ~ Makheru Bradley

"Whenever I hear cats start talking that "community" shit I know they are not serious. No one is accountable in conversations about "da community". That "we as a people"... Plantation Negro segmentation nonsense is Kool-Aid left over from the 70's. It perpetuates the illusion that there is even such a thing as a "black community". There aint no "community" and hasn't been in 40 years. Most Negros don't even know their neighbors."The only effective group is FAMILY. Families are the cells of a society. Destruction of the cell is cancer. An effective institution, expectation and habit of marriage is the antidote." ~Denmark Vesey(A Bloggin' Beast!!!!)

The irony of having an economic system that you hate be the source of your entitlement that is in excess of your productive capacity. -- Constructive Feedback (Blogger Extraordinaire)

Most people can't think, most of the remainder won't think, the small fraction who do think mostly can't do it very well. The extremely tiny fraction who think regularly, accurately, creatively, and without self-delusion – in the long run, these are the only people who count. -Robert A. Heinlein

Illumination of the above Frederick Douglass quote by blogger extraordinaire Constructive Feedback

With all due respect to this great I am not sure that he could have imagined the day where:

"Non-justice" is delivered by the hands of favorable officials with racial diversity that realize "Black on Black violence" is not seen as "violent" as other modalities
Where allowing "ignorance to prevail" is a favorable strategy for the retention of power by those who position themselves as saviors
Where "conspiracy theories" are effective tools to allow people to remain unified against an external threat - even when it has moved away and they are all by themselves - otherwise having to manage the human resources before them toward a more conscious end.

In this environment - Robbery, the oppression of intimidation, and degradation put in the form of a music genre lead to an inevitable condition of insecurity for persons and property.
