I receive daily emails from WorldNetDaily and it appears that the Catholic Church has something to say about this "movement". Warning issued over 'spirit of adulation' of president. As I drilled down through the links they provided, I came across this blog that is pretty critical of how we see Obama. Is Barack Obama the Messiah? Even though I firmly believe that we should pray for those in government and hope that God reaches their hearts, I am also staying aware of what others think of Obama as the nation, and world, look to him to provide answers that no other world leader has been able to give in the past. It is scary to see how much trust is placed on any one person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is scary to see how much trust is placed on any one person. The strange thing is that the President has never claimed to be the messiah, or anything else, other than a man running for President. Anyone who would even ask such a question as "Is Barack Obama the Messiah?" is ignorant beyond measure. And spiritually deceived as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Sister, there are a lot of deceived people out there who do worship Obama in their own ways. Just look at the posts here at Worthy ...

I place confidence in NO mere man. You would think that, but clearly that isn't the case. One needs only to look at the website I mentioned to see that people view him as their 'hope."

I am hopeful that our leadership (ALL the leadership) can work out some plan to help this critically ill economy. I'm hopeful that there will be a turnaround in the job situation and the state of affairs of our country. But... I worship the Lord and not any man. That said... I don't think Obama is the Messiah any more than I think he's the Anti-Christ. There have long been various sites on the internet declaring any number of people as the "Anti-Christ". I think we all need to pray for our leaders and our country. God Bless America. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can pray for our leaders and have confidence in them (although I don't, personally) but worshipping any person is idolatry and, therefore, a sin.

Conservatives, liberals, and all ilks have made this same mistake, trusting in the election of certain politicians to solve their problems.

I think Obama means right the opposite. The way some of the people that voted for him was acting, they do think he's God. After being elected and coming out on the stage, the camera showed some of the women crying. Give me a break!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
