Obama-messiah’s fave new pastor Rick Warren reaches out to homosexual bishop

Isn’t that sweet?  The right “reverend” Rick Warren has “reached out” to openly homosexual Episcopalian bishop Gene Robinson by praising Obama-messiah for selecting Robinson to give the invocation at the inaugural opening ceremony this Sunday. 

 

And how does Rick Warren justify this extraordinary “olive branch” to the openly homosexual bishop?  Well, Warren says the selection of the homo bishop “demonstrates Obama’s genuine commitment to bringing all Americans of goodwill together in search of common ground.”

 

So I guess that means the rest of us are not “Americans of good will.” 

 

The problem is this:  Our heavenly Father has clearly and distinctly stated that homosexuality is an abomination to Him.  Homosexuals were never allowed into the priesthood from the time our heavenly Father gave the instructions for forming it under Moses, until today.  Which, pure and simple, means that any avowed homosexual “priest,” “pastor,” “bishop,” “reverend,” “deacon,” or what have you, is operating outside of God’s Word.  Which means he is a fake.

 

In short, he is an unbeliever of our heavenly Father’s Word, masquerading as a believer.  Or perhaps better stated, he is an unbeliever playing church.  And our heavenly Father’s Word is extremely clear on the idea of coming “together in search of common ground” with unbelievers:

 

2Co 6:14  Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

 

2Co 6:15  And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

 

2Co 6:16  And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

 

2Co 6:17  Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,

 

2Co 6:18  And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

 

Christians who want their heavenly Father to treat them like sons and daughters need to take heed to His Word.  It is that simple.  Otherwise, you are treated like outcasts. 

 

Bringing homosexuality straight into the highest office of our land by allowing a homosexual “priest” to give the Sunday invocation at the inauguration is not going to please our heavenly Father.  His blessings will not be on this administration for openly and willfully flouting His Word and showing utter disdain for it right from the start, all in the name of “reaching out for common ground.”

 

Our instructions are clear:  “Come out from among them.”  “Be ye separate.”  “Touch not the unclean thing.”  Short of their repentance, stay clear of these people, mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically, “that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.”

Pastor Rick Warren Reaches Out to Homosexual Bishop Gene Robinson

By Jacqui Salmon

 

The Rev. Rick Warren, the conservative evangelical minister who will deliver the invocation at Barack Obama’s inauguration, has extended an olive branch to Bishop V. Gene Robinson.

 

Robinson, an openly gay Episcopal bishop, had reacted angrily to the selection of Warren, who opposes gay marriage, calling it a “slap in the face.” But then Robinson was selected this week to give the invocation at the inaugural opening ceremony at the Sunday afternoon concert on the Mall.

 

Today, Warren issued a statement praising Obama for selecting Robinson, saying the president-elect “has again demonstrated his genuine commitment to bringing all Americans of goodwill together in search of common ground. I applaud his desire to be the president of every citizen.”

Gay bishop to deliver invocation at Obama-messiah’s “open and inclusive” inauguration

Obama-messiah says we have to be more “open and inclusive.”

 

That’s a catch-phrase you’re going to be hearing a lot from the Obama-messiah camp, along with “social responsibility” and “economic justice” and a few others.  What does it mean?  It means everybody is equal.  It means God accepts everybody into the fold:  gays, lesbians, bisexuals, transgenders, rapists, murderers, dopers, thieves, liars, lazy ass bums, con artists, freaks, weirdos, wizards, warlocks…you name it.

 

“Open and inclusive.”  Get used to it, because pretty soon they’re going to make it against the law to fail to be “open and inclusive.”  Mark my words.  And what will happen if you break the law by failing to be “open and inclusive”?

 

Remember only a few years back when major league baseball up-and-comer John Rocker stated publicly that he wouldn’t ride New York City subways because he didn’t like sitting next to so many “hookers, fags with AIDS, degenerates, illegal aliens and people with purple hair and metal rings hanging from every orifice of their body”?  Remember what happened to him?  He was forced to attend “sensitivity training” courses.  Then he had to make a public apology on a 26 foot screen at a major league game.  Then his career was destroyed, little by little, as he was ridiculed for months on end by television comedians, talk show hosts and comedy shows like Saturday Night Live.  After awhile, everybody was afraid to have anything to do with him.  He was a public pariah, even though he bowed and curtsied as he was commanded by the high priests of political correctness, until he just couldn’t take it anymore and told them all to go to hell.

 

“Open and inclusive”…unless you simply don’t believe they way they tell you to believe.  Then, you’re out.

Gay bishop to open Obama’s inaugural weekend

The Rt. Rev. V. Gene Robinson of New Hampshire, who was elected the Episcopal Church’s first openly gay bishop in 2003, will deliver the invocation for Sunday’s kickoff inaugural event on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, the Presidential Inaugural Committee said.

President-elect Obama is scheduled to attend the afternoon event, which is free and open to the public.

“The president-elect has respect for the Rt. Rev. Robinson, who offered his advice and counsel over the past couple of years,” an inaugural official said. “It also has the benefit of further reinforcing our commitment to an open and inclusive inaugural.”

Robinson remains the Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire.

Joe Solmonese, president of the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest gay civil rights organization, said in a statement that the choice was “encouraging.”

“Bishop Robinson models what prayer should be — spiritual reflection put into action for justice,” Solmonese said. “It is encouraging that the president-elect has chosen this spiritual hero, and that should remain our focus today.”

Many of Obama’s supporters were furious at the choice of Rick Warren, the evangelical pastor and best-selling author, to deliver the invocation at the swearing-in ceremony.

Warren had endorsed California’s Proposition 8, which bans same-sex marriage, with a statement saying: “There is no reason to change the universal, historical definition of marriage to appease 2 percent of our population.”

The furor has been Obama’s biggest clash with his party’s left wing since he was elected.

An Obama source said: “Robinson was in the plans before the complaints about Rick Warren. Many skeptics will read this as a direct reaction to the Warren criticism — but it’s just not so.”

Last summer, Robinson was united in a civil union with his longtime gay partner. The Concord (N.H.) Monitor reported at the time: “The day marked the five-year anniversary of the New Hampshire election that, once ratified, made Robinson the first openly gay bishop in the Anglican church.”

Robinson’s bio on the diocese website says: “Gene enjoys entertaining and cooking, gardening, music and theater. He is the father of two grown daughters and the proud grandfather of two granddaughters. He lives with his partner, Mark Andrew, who is employed by the State of New Hampshire’s Department of Safety.”
