Obama in Indonesia wedding Christianity to Islam

Obama has been in Indonesia this week, poking his fingers into the eye of the one true God.

Earlier Mr Obama had visited Indonesia's Grand Mosque, south-east Asia's largest, with his wife, Michelle, and cited it as a source of inspiration. ''This house of worship for many thousands of Muslims was designed by a Christian architect,'' he said to applause. ''Such is Indonesia's spirit. Such is the message of Indonesia's inclusive philosophy: pancasila.

''People choose to worship God as they please. Islam flourishes, but so do other faiths. Here we can find the ability to bridge divides of race and region and religion. That ability to see yourself in other people.''

The very first Commandment, that God never replaced is in Exodus 20
I am the LORD your God...“You shall have no other gods before me."

Obama could have said 'people choose to worship their god as they please'. If he said that, it would have been acceptable. But they all can't be worshipping God because they don't recognise Jesus Christ as the Son of God. The Bible makes it clear. If you are worshipping any other God, you are worshipping a worthless idol.
The only inspiration that an Islamic mosque can provide is the architecture. People can't worship God as they please and certainly not within the religion of Islam. Jesus is the seed of Abraham and is the Son of God. All authority has been given to him and Obama, who professes to be a Christian, must see that other faiths flourishing should be a source of distress. Being reconciled across religions in recognition that we all live in one global society and must all live peacefully is fine. But uniting Christianity with an anti-Christ religion is not possible.

Your stripes are beginning to look a little dubious Mr Obama. Stand up for your God and recognise him before men!
