AMERICAN RENEWAL PROJECT 10/24/2017 AMERICA MUST RECOVER FROM OBAMA'S SOCIAL ENGINEERING IDIOCY!

Submitted by: David Lave

It remains to be seen if America can recover from her poisoning and bout with syncretism and the "social engineering" foisted on the nation by President Barack Hussein Obama in the interest of performing his "governmental duties." A once Christian nation, as established by its Founders, has now embraced Secularism as its deity, and the result is a disaster in the making.

Fifty-eight years after the death of King Solomon, Israel's open defiance of God was shocking. Seven kings sat on the throne during that short period, and all of them, without exception, reigned wickedly. Then, God raised Elijah - like Gideon before him, a prophet would take a stand in his "kairos"; God's appointed moment of time.

"Unannounced and unattended, a plain man, dressed in very humble garb, appeared before Israel's apostate king as the messenger of Jehovah and the herald of dire judgment," wrote A.W. Pink. "No one in the court would know much, if anything, about him, but he had just emerged from the obscurity of Gilead, to stand before Ahab with the keys of Heaven in his hand. Such are often the witnesses to His Truth which God has employed. At His bidding they come and go: not from the ranks of the influential and learned do they issue. They are not the products of this world system, nor does the world place any laurels on their brow."

That said, history likely will record President Obama's legacy as morally delinquent, and his character as a spiritual apostate. Solomon observed, "He who speaks truth declares righteousness, but a false witness, deceit" (Proverbs 12:17). Since freedom in a Democratic Republic requires virtue, elected representatives are obligated to respond truthfully to a constituent's examination. Representative government remains viable only as long as people can, on the whole, expect elected officials to keep their word.

For example, recall when then-candidate Obama lied to the American people in the nationally televised Saddleback Debate in 2008. Evidently, getting himself elected as President held more value to candidate Obama than integrity. Pastor Rick Warren asked: "Define marriage."

Obama: "I believe that marriage is the union between a man and a woman. Now, for me as a Christian-for me-for me as a Christian, it is also a sacred union. God's in the mix."

Warren"Forty million abortions, at what point does a baby get human rights, in your view?"

Obama: "Well, you know, I think that whether you're looking at it from a theological perspective or a scientific perspective, answering that question with specificity, you know, is above my pay grade."

What candidate Obama demonstrated is the unlikeness between, "crimes against man in comparison with high-handed sins against God."*

As the result of Obama's election and reelection, the golden calf of syncretism has been placed center stage in the religious life of America. Because of ungodly design and plotting, the battle for the Soul of America is far from over. Let's be specific, when Barack Obama was elected president in 2008, Democrats controlled only one - of the thirteen - United States Circuit Court of Appeals. Following Obama's two terms, Democrats now control nine of the thirteen. Why is this important you ask? The thirteen appellate courts sit below the U.S. Supreme Court, the majority of judges now serving on the Court of Appeals are Democrats, who reject biblical truth. Democrats espouse abortion, homosexual marriage, transgender bathrooms, etc. You doubt this? Simply look at the Democratic Party platform - the ideas and beliefs that govern their party as a whole.

To compound the problem, Secularism's "influential and learned" people control the affairs of public education, higher learning, newsrooms, sports, the Courts, the Fortune 500, Hollywood, and medicine. Spiritually, the battle for the Soul of America boils down to Secularism versus Christianity. These two distinct religions cannot coexist. Each worldview is eternal and in immutable conflict. In the end, one will ultimately end in destruction, as a consequence of the elevation of the other.


Just like in the time of Elijah and Jesus of Nazareth, we also live in a period where the godless have drained all meaning from the word Truth. "What is truth?" Christ was asked by the Roman governor of Judea (John 18:38). The battle for who defines truth - what is right and what is wrong - is an eternal battle that now sits before us front and center in 21st century America. Truth is now defined as anything that five secular Supreme Court Justices can agree to on any given day.

How do we know this? In 2015, two centuries after the writing and ratification of the Constitution, five unelected and unaccountable Supreme Court Justices finally discovered a right to homosexual intercourse and marriage - defying God's mandated order. The Lord Jesus fleshed this out, "He wrote this commandment only as a concession to your hard hearts. But 'God made them male and female' from the beginning of creation. 'This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one.' Since they are no longer two but one, let no one split apart what God has joined together" (Mark 10:1-10). Impugning God, five radicalized Justices pronounced homosexual intercourse and marriage a legal right.

The application that A.W. Pink made to wayward Israel, must necessarily be applied to Barack Obama, a radicalized Supreme Court, and a secularized America: "Notwithstanding the peace and prosperity which the kingdom had long enjoyed, the Lord was highly incensed at the gross manner in which He had been publicly insulted, and the time had arrived for Him to severely punish the wayward people."

We are in desperate need of people of faith in the public square.
