Why I Can't Vote For Obama
By Huntley Brown

Dear Friends, A few months ago I was asked for my perspective on Obama, I
sent out an email with a few points. With the election just around the
corner I decided to complete my perspective. Those of you on my e-list
have seen some of this before but it's worth repeating...

First I must say whoever wins the election will have my prayer support.
Obama needs to be commended for his accomplishments but I need to explain
why I will not be voting for him.

Many of my friends process their identity through their blackness. I
process my identity through Christ. Being a Christian (a Christ follower)
means He leads I follow. I can't dictate the terms He does because He is
the leader.

I can't vote black because I am black; I have to vote Christian because
that's who I am. Christian first, black second. Neither should anyone
from the other ethnic groups vote because of ethnicity. 200 years from now
I won't be asked if I was black or white. I will be asked if I knew Jesus
and accepted Him as Lord and Savior.

In an election there are many issues to consider but when a society gets
abortion, same-sex marriage, embryonic stem-cell research, human cloning
to name a few, wrong economic concerns will soon not matter.

We need to follow Martin Luther King's words, don't judge someone by the
color of their skin but by the content of their character. I don't know

Obama so all I can go off is his voting record. His voting record earned
him the title of the most liberal senator in the US Senate in 2007.

NATIONAL JOURNAL: Obama: Most Liberal Senator in 2007 (01/31/2008)

To beat Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton as the most liberal senator, takes
some doing. Obama accomplished this feat in 2 short years. I wonder what
would happen to America if he had four years to work with.

There is a reason Planned Parenthood gives him a 100% rating. There is a
reason the homosexual community supports him. There is a reason
Ahmadinejad, Chavez, Castro, Hamas etc. love him. There is a reason he
said he would nominate liberal judges to the Supreme Court. There is a
reason he voted against the infanticide bill. There is a reason he voted
No on the constitutional ban of same-sex marriage. There is a reason he
voted No on banning partial birth abortion. There is a reason he voted No
on confirming Justices Roberts and Alito. These two judges are
conservatives and they have since overturned partial birth abortion. The
same practice Obama wanted to continue.

Let's take a look at the practice he wanted to continue

The 5 Step Partial Birth Abortion procedures:

A. Guided by ultrasound, the abortionist grabs the baby's leg with forceps. (Remember this is a live baby)

B. The baby's leg is pulled out into the birth canal.

C. The abortionist delivers the baby's entire body, except for the head.

D. The abortionist jams scissors into the baby's skull. The scissors are then opened to enlarge the hole.

E. The scissors are removed and a suction catheter is inserted. The child's brains are sucked out, causing the skull to collapse. The dead
baby is then removed.

God help him. There is a reason Obama opposed the parental notification
law.

Think about this: You can't give a kid an aspirin without parental
notification but that same kid can have an abortion without parental
notification. This is insane.

There is a reason he went to Jeremiah Wright's church for 20 years.

Obama tells us he has good judgment but he sat under Jeremiah Wright
teaching for 20 years. Now he is condemning Wright's sermons. I wonder why
now?

Obama said Jeremiah Wright led him to the Lord and discipled him. A
disciple is one in training. Jesus told us in Matthew 28:19 - 20 "Go and
make disciples of all nations." This means reproduce yourself. Teach
people to think like you, walk like you; talk like you believe what you
believe etc. The question I have is what did Jeremiah Wright teach him?

Would you support a White President who went to a church which has tenets
that said they have a ...

1. Commitment to the White Community

2. Commitment to the White Family

3. Adherence to the White Work Ethic

4. Pledge to make the fruits of all developing and acquired skills
available to the White Community.

5. Pledge to Allocate Regularly, a Portion of Personal Resources for
Strengthening and Supporting White Institutions

6. Pledge allegiance to all White leadership who espouse and embrace the
White Value System

7. Personal commitment to embracement of the White Value System.


Would you support a President who went to a church like that?

Just change the word from white to black and you have the tenets of
Obama's former church. If President Bush was a member of a church like
this, he would be called a racist. Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton would
have been marching outside.

This kind of church is a racist church. Obama did not wake up after 20
years and just discovered he went to a racist church. The church can't be
about race. Jesus did not come for any particular race. He came for the
whole world.

A church can't have a value system based on race. The churches value
system has to be based on biblical mandate. It does not matter if
it’s a white church or a black church it's still wrong. Anyone from
either race that attends a church like this would never get my vote.

Obama's former Pastor Jeremiah Wright is a disciple of liberal theologian
James Cone, author of the 1970 book A Black Theology of Liberation. Cone
once wrote: "Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified
totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and
against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him.

Cone is the man Obama's mentor looks up to. Does Obama believe this?

So what does all this mean for the nation?

In the past when the Lord brought someone with the beliefs of Obama to
lead a nation it meant one thing - judgment.

Read 1 Samuel 8 when Israel asked for a king. First God says in 1 Samuel
1:9

"Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know what the
king
who will reign over them will do."

Then God says

1 Samuel 1:18

" When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the
king you have
chosen, and the LORD will not answer you in that day." 19
But the people
refused to listen to Samuel. "No!" they said. "We want a
king over us. 20
Then we will be like all the other nations, with a king
to lead us and to go
out before us and fight our battles." 21 When Samuel
heard all that the
people said, he repeated it before the LORD. 22 The
LORD answered, "Listen
to them and give them a king."

Here is what we know for sure.

God is not schizophrenic

He would not tell one person to vote for Obama and one to vote for McCain.
As the scripture says, a city divided against itself cannot stand, so
obviously many people are not hearing from God.

Maybe I am the one not hearing but I know God does not change and Obama
contradicts many things I read in scripture so I doubt it.

For all my friends who are voting for Obama can you really look God in the
face and say; Father based on your word, I am voting for Obama even though
I know he will continue the genocidal practice of partial birth abortion.
He might have to nominate three or four Supreme Court justices, and I am
sure he will be nominating liberal judges who will be making laws that are
against you. I also know he will continue to push for homosexual rights,
even though you destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for this. I know I can look
the other way because of the economy.

I could not see Jesus agreeing with many of Obama's positions. Finally I
have two questions for all my liberal friends.

Since we know someone's value system has to be placed on the nation,

1. Whose value system should be placed on the nation.
2. Who should determine that this is the right value system for the nation?

Blessings,

Huntley Brown

Hyper-Calvinism vs. Arminianism

“I would lay down such a dark path, such a dark picture of sinners, I would still do that. I would lay down a high view of God, but I would have finished many of my sermons, with a greater, greater cry of the love of God for men…Don’t make simply preaching against sin your end, make it the means to an end, to convince men of their need of God, and then assure men of the power of Christ to save…. Open the door [of Salvation] wide, because I can assure you my friend it is wide. I heard an illustration while I was in Holland, and it’s really good: Arminianism is a door that has no mansion, Hyper-Calvinism is a mansion that has no door. Be very, very careful, there are people out there preaching today, opening a door wide to nothing, there are others who are preaching a great and glorious salvation but not opening the door wide enough.”

~Paul Washer

The Un-Fairness Doctrine

To those of you who don't know what this is, I challenge you to do some research on this subject on your own.

From my understanding, the Fairness Doctrine basically says that radio stations will be forced to give equal time to both conservative and liberal broadcasters or at least allow both viewpoints/talking points to have equal time on the airwaves.

Folks, this is America. We live in a free country. What we are talking about here is taking away one of our most basic freedoms. The freedom of speech. The freedom to talk openly and freely without government intervention. This is a political battle and we need to do what we can to ensure that our freedom of speech remains free, and tell the government to stay off our rights!

Question: If liberal talk radio was controlling the radio platform like they do with the news and other media outlets do you think we'd be having this argument? No. We're having it because conservative leaning Americans have gone to radio stations in huge numbers instead of ABC, NBC, CBS to get media without the liberal bias.

Finally, if you think this would stop at "political talk radio" programs, then you need to open your eyes. If we allow the government to regulate anything they always take it to an extreme. What would this type of doctrine do for Christian Radio Stations? Think about it and what it truly means for your rights. It's a troubling thought

Practice What You Preach....How 'bout Next Sunday?

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Authorities are looking for two people who allegedly stole a preacher's wallet and went on a shopping spree while he was giving a sermon about showing mercy to others.

The Rev. Rob Hamby was the guest preacher at Fort Worth Presbyterian Church on Sunday when his briefcase was stolen from the church office. Security cameras caught images of a man and woman.

"What troubles me is that they would go to the church, not for help but to steal. I am shocked and frustrated that these people did it. But more than anything, I feel kind of sorry for them," Hamby said in Monday's online edition of The Dallas Morning News.

The newspaper reported that about $2,000 in purchases were made on his credit and debit cards before he finished preaching, including the purchase of a $676 diamond ring. In addition to his wallet, Hamby's computer valued at $2,600 was taken.

Hamby, who works as a campus minister at Texas Christian University, said he could have understood if the thieves used his credit cards to buy essentials but not luxuries that they did not need.
