Featured Obama leaving with high approval rating

I have high approval of his leaving, too.

 

Just shows that people are very gullible!

 

Wonder how real christians woul rate him?

 

Whatcha expect??? Obviously the closer he is to riding off into the sunset (I wish!!!) the higher his approval gets!!

 

I wouldn't put any stock in any poll put out by CNN and WAPO. They're already been caught more than once doctoring their polls.

 

"Real Christians?"

New ABC / WaPo Poll Uses "Oversamples" To Goal Seek Strong Obama Approval Rating


Just one day after the bitter mainstreamers at ABC/WaPo and CNN used their "oversamples" of Democrats to rig polls showing an unprecedented unfavorable rating of the incoming President-elect (see "New ABC / WaPo Poll Shows Drop In Trump Favorability Courtesy Of Aggressive 'Oversamples'"), those same outlets have used those same methodologies to engineer stellar approval ratings for Obama...shocking.

Just like yesterday's polls, both ABC / Wapo and CNN used an aggressive, 8-point "oversample" of Democrats to lavish praise on their chose party and candidate.

Apparently, ABC / WaPo believes that only 23% of registered voters are Republican...

...while CNN stretched to 24% Republicans but still maintained their 8-point Democrat oversample by just adding more dems to the pool.

A total of 1,000 adults were interviewed by telephone nationwide by live interviewers calling both landline and cell phones. Among the entire sample, 32% described themselves as Democrats, 24% described themselves as Republicans, and 44% described themselves as independents or members of another party

 

Would think those following the Bible would be less than 10%

 

Real ones , the ones saved and obeying the scripture. not those into just socialGospewl or members in a church, but not been born again!

 

The doing good unto others is NOT the heart of the Gospel though, as that is the Cross!

 

So we are simply to discount what He taught?

If the cross is the heart of what is important, what wasn't Jesus crucified as an infant. Why did the Gospel writers yammer on and on about what Jesus said and did instead of simply jumping to the cross?

I don't like the over-emphasis on the recorded words of Jesus to the minimization of everything else that is popular in some circles ("red letter Christians"), but I think that too many Christians focus on certain passages in Paul's writings and completely ignore Jesus. Jesus was the greatest Teacher that ever walked the earth. He called (and calls) individuals to learn from Him and do His works. In fact, that is the basis of judgement at the end of the age (Matthew 25, Revelation 20:11-15, etc.).

 

The main truth is the Cross an resurrection though, s that is the message of the Gospel, not social works!

 

No, but we better make sure people get th eGospel tha saves them before the Gospel of social justice/works!

 

You have made the mistake of separating what you call "the Gospel of social justice/works" from the gospel of the cross. They are the same gospel and cannot be separated.

If you take up your cross (die to yourself and enter into the life of Jesus), your message will encompass both. One of the great errors in Baptist and evangelical circles today is to assume that the gospel is an atonement transaction to get to "Heaven" that has nothing to do with Jesus calling people into discipleship and obedience. Jesus and Paul DID NOT teach different things. Paul's audience (already followers of Jesus) already know the message of Jesus, so they interpreted Paul's writings by Jesus. Paul would be horrified by the way people have perverted the gospel into a legalistic transaction that smacks of death insurance. If you are not serving others and striving for justice, you can know that you are not of Jesus.

You are truly preaching another gospel if you ignore either the cross or doing good/justice.

 

If I preach/teach that th message ofte Gospel is atonement and social works on equal footing, that is indeed another Gospel! We need to be saved from our sins first before any good works to be done!
