Who is The True Savior and Lord?

There have been comments by different sources over the last four or so years about President Barack Obama being the "messiah." Jamie Foxx made the following statement at the Soul Train Awards program that was aired this past weekend, ""It's like church over here. It's like church in here. First of all, give an honor to God and our Lord and Savior Barack Obama." Some in the media have afforded Obama with the same title during his orginal vie for the White House in 2008. There has also been a painting that has just been released that shows a picture, similar to the one to the left accept it has Obama in the place of Jesus. All of these statements and pictures are truely in a blasphemous area. Acts 4:12 (speaking of Jesus Christ) says this, "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. " Psalm 146:1-10 says this, "Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, O my soul! I will praise the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being. Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation. When his breath departs, he returns to the earth; on that very day his plans perish.  Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God, who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, who keeps faith forever; who executes justice for the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry. The LORD sets the prisoners free; the LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD lifts up
those who are bowed down; the LORD loves the righteous. The LORD watches over the sojourners; he upholds the widow and the fatherless, but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin. The LORD will reign forever, your God, O Zion, to all generations. Praise the LORD!"

Folks, we are called as Christians, to worship the Lord. We are told to not bow down to any other. There are many that have used this title for Obama and ithis title is only fitting to be used when speaking about The LORD not a man. We must be careful that we do not put too much hope in a man because man will always fail us. Our hope must be in the Lord.

We as believers are called to give glory to no one other than the Lord. He is a jealous God sharing his glory with no one, not you, not me, and not Barack Obama. Not only that, but there are grave concequences for our actions. Exodus 20:4-6 states this, "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments."

Let's serve the God of heaven and not a man!!! God bless and God bless America!
