I will reference scripture with this. You pray about it and compare what you have seen and what you have heard with these scriptures.


1 John 3:7-10
7Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. He who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous. 8He who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work. 9No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God. 10This is how we know who the children of God are and who the children of the devil are: Anyone who does not do what is right is not a child of God; nor is anyone who does not love his brother.

Matthew 7:15-23
15"Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.
 21"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?' 23Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!'

Luke 6:43-45
43"No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. 44Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. 45The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.

 I guess my definition of a Christian is one who, really loves and follows God. They will follow the two greatest commandments. I guess I agree with log on Obama, as Obama is a secularist. I do not know about Muslim, in some ways it seems so, and others it does not. Time will tell.

Obama says he is.  I guess I will take him at his word unless he shows me different.  He appears to be a good family man, affable, etc.  On the other hand, he is the worst president we have had in my 50 years.  As far as being a Christian, it seems the former is more telling than the later.

I'd much rather see him living in the house next to mine than in the White House.

 The Lord said You should know them by their fruit.
 To me Obama's fruit is rotten.

 

I wouldn't want a Muslim president just like I wouldn't want a Nazi president.  If a Christian is going to be president, it would be good if he were a libertarian so as to not smear the faith.

I have the same doubt unless such a politician is very libertarian in nature and has a career of dismantling the leviathan.
