War on Christian values has begun

The Obama administration has wasted no time in declaring war on evangelical Christians. Within minutes after the new president took his oath of office, his staff posted his agendas concerning homosexuality and abortion on the White House website.
Sexual perversion
With regard to sexual perversion, the president's policy goals are spelled out as follows:
1) Defeat all state and federal constitutional efforts to defend the definition of biblical marriage as being a union between one man and one woman.
2) Repeal the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) signed by Bill Clinton. (This is currently the only line of defense keeping all 50 states from being forced to recognize so-called "same-sex marriages" from extremely liberal states like Massachusetts and Connecticut.)
3) Repeal the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.
4) Pass "hate crimes" legislation granting homosexuals and cross-dressers special rights denied to other Americans. (This legislation, depending on how it is drafted, could even attempt to muzzle any criticism of homosexuality as being unbiblical and unnatural perversion.)
5) Pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) which would force business owners (religious and otherwise) to abandon traditional values relative to sexual morality under penalty of law.
6) Create intentionally motherless and fatherless homes by expanding "gay adoption."

Abortion
With regard to abortion, the president's agenda is:
1) Opposition to any constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court's abortion decision in
Roe v. Wade.
2) Support of the Prevention First Act which would provide access to contraception and "preventive services to help reduce unintended pregnancies" (a euphemism for abortion).

Although it is not mentioned on the White House website, President Obama has made it clear that he will support the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA). In fact, he promised Planned Parenthood that signing the FOCA would be "the first thing I'd do as President." FOCA is by far the most radical piece of abortion legislation ever introduced into the Congress.
According to pro-choice advocates, FOCA would:
1) Overturn the ban on the barbaric procedure called "partial-birth abortion."
2) Invalidate scores of pro-life laws passed by dozens of states.
3) Eliminate existing laws against taxpayer-funded abortions.
Obama betrays Christian voters

You've probably heard that President-elect Obama has invited openly homosexual Episcopal Bishop V. Gene Robinson to deliver the invocation at an inaugural event on Sunday.
It's a shame that our next president apparently has so little regard for his Christian constituents that he would give such a high place of honor to a self-styled man of God whose only claim to fame is that he abandoned his wife and children to enter, "loudly and proudly," a sexually deviant lifestyle expressly condemned by the very Bible he's ironically called "holy and sacred."
None of us are without sin; and certainly none are less valuable in God's eyes than any other. But Christ did command us to repent of our sins and to "go and sin no more." Not only has Robinson refused to repent of his homosexual behavior -- which is unequivocally condemned throughout both the Old and New Testaments as sexual sin -- he has further rebelled against God by leading astray countless of his flock who suffer from similar temptation.
A fancy white robe and tall priestly hat does not a man of God make. Robinson may or may not be a believer as he claims; only he and God know that for sure. But what we do know is this: based upon his frequent association with homosexual anti-Christian hate groups like the Human Rights Campaign and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, and in light of his ongoing counter-Christian sexual crusade, Gene Robinson is little more than a radical homosexual activist in a clergyman's clothing. In fact, his heretical rebellion against God's express natural order, coupled with his selfish refusal to surrender his pulpit, has almost single handedly devastated the U.S. Episcopal Church.
Robinson has indicated he will not use the Bible at the event, saying,
"While that is a holy and sacred text to me, it is not for many Americans. I will be careful not to be especially Christian in my prayer."
Unfortunately, Robinson is not especially Christian in much of what he does. After that comment, I wonder if he heard a rooster crow.
While addressing his aberrant sexual appetite for men, Robinson said,
"I believe in my heart that the church got it wrong about homosexuality."
That's why Christ admonishes us to place His word above that which we feel in our hearts. As Scripture warns: "The heart is deceitful above all things."
As Gene Robinson prays for Barack Obama on Sunday, I would encourage all Bible believing Christians to pray for Gene Robinson. Pray for the wife and children he left for a lie. Pray that he will repent, "go and sin no more," bringing others with him to the salvation only Christ can offer. A salvation we all -- our nation and our world -- so desperately need.
All anyone has to do is open their eyes to see that everything that Obama has done so far is anti-Christian, and we are blind if we can not recognize that it will never get any better>
