The bottom line is the answer Obama gives to, Who Is Jesus? If he can not confess that Jesus is Lord and that He is the only way to salvation and eternal life, then Obama is not a Christian. It's that simple

Christian Leaders Meet Privately with Obama

Other than the representative from Graham's organization, and another one or two, I dont see any conservative Evangelical leaders. You will note that I am now prefacing Evangelical with the word conservative because the word Evangelical has been hijacked by religious liberals (don't assume Christian). If conservative Christians think that Obama has any concern for them, were crazy. I am going to say this; I don't see anything in Obama that gives me reason to think he is a Christian. None of his actions or ideas support his claim. Infact, I bet that the answer Mr. DeMoss got from Obama when asked about Jesus being the only way to the Father, will not satisfy Mr. Graham. I know Mr. DeMoss' family. I worked with his late uncle Ted DeMoss who was one of the best one-on-one Evangelist of the 20th century.

I am a member of one of the larger (and more wealthy) Presbyterian Churches that left the PCUSA last year and joined the EPC. We took the 'high road' and offered a continued contribution to the Presbyter for the next four years. We did this because the Presbyter relied very much on our funding and we wanted to display Christ's love.
Make no mistake that we very much disagreed with the changing Theology of the denomation but missionaries and other staff were dependant on the contribution our church. This action surprised many throughout the PCUSA and became a model for other churches seeking to leave.

The problem is, there is no such person as an atheist. A person can not say, there is no God. However, a person can be agnostic. Having doubt about God. To say there is no God would mean that a person would have to travel the universe looking for God. And we know that has not happened. Sorry, no big A for you, just a small a.

Born Again Christians Favor Democratic Candidates, Says Survey

Although I have always voted Republician, I only ID myself as a conservative. However, I have never seen a Democract that has my values. First of all, I am pro-life. Next, I am pro-family and pro-marriage between only a man and woman. These are the values I want my government to support. In addition to those values, I very much care about and minister to the poor through my church. I don't expect the goverment to do that. It is the role of the church not government. My church can get more value from my money in minstering to the poor than the goverment can get. Our government takes three dollars to get only one dollar of service to the needy. That is not good stewardship.
