Obama’s 20 Years in Reverend Wright’s Church Produced little knowledge of the Bible Barack Obama has opened himself to more embarrassment about his lack of Bible knowledge, which was revealed during his defensive remarks while fending off criticism by Dr. James Dobson.I don’t know if the public received (and or read) the entire story of Obama’s fisticuffing verbiage; but his remarks about the Sermon on the Mount left him exposed to much more criticism by learned Bible scholars.Quoting the article by SARA KUGLER Associated Press Writer, which also ran on ABC News on June 24, 2008, Obama also cited Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, “a passage that is so radical that it’s doubtful that our own Defense Department would survive its application?" Obama went on to say,” Folks haven't been reading their Bibles," Obama said in the speech.Wrong! Many of us read it daily!Christian students, professors, preachers and authors of Christian theology know full well that the Sermon on the Mount makes bold statements, such as that there will be perilous times preceding the return of Christ; that certain signs will be prevalent that the end is near, that there will be wars, and rumors of wars, earthquakes in diverse places, false prophets will rise, mankind’s hearts will grow cold towards one another, and persecution against Christians that has not been seen since the beginning of time, but will soon prevail. The majority of born again Christians are aware of the warnings Jesus gave his disciples while giving His Sermon on the Mount, and as “radical” as that may seem to some politicians and military leaders, it is a fact that most well-informed Christians believe and take very seriously. If Barack Obama was a “spirit-filled” Christian, he would know that the Sermon on the Mount description of the last days will become a reality, and that neither a President nor a Queen nor all the armies of the world will be able to withstand this apocalyptic reality. Shame on Barack Obama! He, a parishioner of Reverend Wright’s Church for over twenty years, but has learned very little of what most parishioners know to be the biblical truth. What was he doing during all of those righteous sermons he heard by Reverend Wright? Did he not attend any of the Bible studies they offered? Didn’t he devote some off time to reading and studying his Bible, as he accuses? Or was he too busy kissing little babies and hand selling future votes? Swatting away criticism by learned theologians like Dr. James Dodson, by dissing the Gospel as being “so radical” that it should not be taken seriously, may sway a legion of Obama supporters; but millions of American Christians who know the truth are now amazed at how little Bible knowledge a professing Christian of over 20 years should know by now.  Most Bible knowledgeable Christians are fast recognizing that Obama’s sermonic rhetoric has lost most of its steam, revealing a typical smooth-talking establishment politician, who himself has become so deluded by lap dog praise emanating from pundits who should know the difference between change we can believe in or another example of barrio and ghetto sham. As many of us assumed (who at first were impressed with his call for change we can believe in), Obama’s messianic cover is fading, only to reveal “another typical politician” out of many that have paraded themselves on the hustings of America, bellowing out soothing myths and snake oil philosophies that portend to solve our myriad problems. -30- Joe Ortiz is a veteran radio-TV broadcaster in California and the author of Why Christians Will Suffer Great Tribulation, published by Author House Publications
