Anti-Bible Hillary quotes Bible again
By Grant Swank

The Bible is against abortion. Hillary is for killing womb babies.

The Bible is against active homosexuality. Hillary endorses sodomy.

The Bible is against other gods than God. Hillary is polytheistic in that any deity is fine for her.

Yet Hillary quotes then from the Bible in a sanctuary. So what's new?

Per AP, "Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton used an appearance at one of the nation's largest evangelical churches Thursday to sketch a broad agenda to take on disease around the globe, calling it 'the right thing to do.'

"The centerpiece of a speech laced with Biblical references and reflections on her own faith was a call to spend billions of dollars to combat HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases at home and abroad. She said she would try to stamp out malaria deaths in Africa within eight years."

Hillary sounds like Rudy Giuliani when it comes to using Jesus for her own political opportunism. No problem with that. It's the biblical jargon that is quick to their tongues because they have honed that part of their hypocrisy.

Why did Pastor Rick Warren of Saddleback Church, Orange County, California, invite Hillary on to his agenda? These so-called evangelical leaders who hug Hillary and Barack Obama are traitors to the traditional biblical Christianity.

Hillary and Obama have plenty of secular venues; they don't need a sanctuary, pulpit and congregation under the label "evangelical" to provide them with further shelter. Yet this compromising the faith goes on in some so-called evangelical circles. It is disgusting.

"Clinton was alone among leading candidates to fly to coastal California to appear at Saddleback Church in Orange County, where pastor and best-selling author Rick Warren convenes a conference each year to highlight the global threat posed by HIV/AIDS."

The gist of this article is not against raising funds to combat a deadly disease. It is condoning politicos who grab hold of the Bible to support their personas while all the time breathing ethics that are anti-Scripture.

"Many Christian conservatives dread the possibility of another Clinton White House, a point of agreement in a year when prominent leaders in the movement have divided their loyalties among GOP contenders.

"There was a sprinkle of criticism from conservatives in response to Clinton's appearance at the church, but it was muted compared to last year when more than a dozen conservative leaders signed a letter urging Warren to rescind an invitation to Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., who supports abortion rights. The church defended his appearance.

"Warren is theologically and socially conservative, but he is known for avoiding the scrum of partisan politics. The author of 'The Purpose-Driven Life' has devoted much of his time in recent years mobilizing evangelicals to fight AIDS in Africa.

"The speech gave Clinton a chance to appear on stage with the popular pastor — who greeted her with a hug — as well as talk at length about her own faith."

Hug her?

As far as I can reason Warren, he too is an outright opportunist. He is bloated over the sales of his book. Therefore, his egocentricity flies out for more more more. Yet he is exposing his use of Jesus and Bible for his own purse and rising conceit level.

Compromising the biblical lifestyle and moral base does not set well with God. It also does not go over with those totally surrendered to a separation from the worldly unto the holiness of God.

"'I've been raised to understand the power and purpose of prayer,' she (Hillary) said at one point."

Hillary once again lies.

Her prayers don't go any further than her mouth for her heart is not in the right place. Jesus does not reside in a heart that endorses slaying the unborn and campaigning for the same-gender practices that go on in the practicing homosexual playtime.
