Obama Campaign Scrambling in Wake of Evangelist Questioning if He is Really a Christian
Senator Barack Obama's campaign team is scrambling to do damage control in the wake of the national story two weeks ago when the world's leading Internet evangelist Bill Keller of Liveprayer, questioned in a widely distributed Op-ed article, YouTube video, and Daily Devotional to his 2.4 million subscribers whether Senator Obama was really a Christian.

Keller questioned the authenticity of Senator Obama's faith in Christ due to the fact he has stated there are "many paths to God" when orthodox Christianity clearly teaches that faith in Jesus Christ is the only way to be saved, in addition to his support of killing babies, gay marriage, and giving away part of Israel to the Palestinians, all contrary to Christian teachings according to the Bible.

In response to Keller's assertions, the Obama campaign has launched the Joshua Generation Project, concentrating on young Christian rather than older Christians who are unlikely to support someone who advocates killing babies and gay marriage. Also, last week Senator Obama had a private meeting in Chicago with a handpicked selection of evangelicals who were allowed to ask him any question, but were forbidden to share his answers with the press or in any public forum.

Lastly, was the launch of a new campaign website designed to counter the rumors and false information being spread on the Internet. On that website, he again reaffirms his claim to be a Christian, but fails to address ANY of the questions about his statements and actions Keller raised which calls into question whether he really is a Christian or not.

Keller stated, "I have asked the Senator to sit down with me on camera and answer these important questions that have made people doubt if he really is a Christian. Despite repeated calls, emails, and letters to his campaign office, they have not even had the decency to respond. It is evident that Senator Obama will not sit down with someone who will ask him the right questions which require simple yes and no answers, opting instead to continue to hide in forums where he can market himself a Christian and not be held accountable for his beliefs and actions."

LOL @ all of you people grasping at straws in an attempt to discount Bill Keller. He's the real deal. He is truly one of the ONLY highly visible people that will go into the heart of the world (drug addicts, hookers, homosexuals, criminals) and preach the Word of God. He's not afraid of anyone. The people who cannot deal with the Truth do everything in their power to nit-pick and discount him. Fine, forget what he says. READ THE BIBLE. THAT is the authority and the final word.  
 
I feel really sorry for these lost souls. They are in for a crude awakening when Jesus returns. Wise up.

Bill Keller walks the walk. Satan will always be standing on the sidelines throwing stones. Those that truly are Christians see this.

It is interesting to me to see Pinhead Liberals attack the Messenger when they Cannot deal with real Tough Questions and Facts because that runs counter to their twisted World View. They cannot be intellectually honest enough with themselves to confront Reality staring them in the face. God Bless Bill Keller as he has the guts to stand up and speak the truth to a morally disintegrating society. Christians that believe the Bible is TRUTH better stand up and start speaking as loud and often as the degenerate Liberals are before they drive this great country completely into the abyss.

KELLERS DAILY DEVOTIONAL THURSDAY JUNE 19, 2008 (Galatians 1:9)  
***HELP ME BY MAKING A PHONE CALL AND SENDING AN EMAIL TO SENATOR OBAMAS OFFICE! I have left 12 voicemails and sent 25 emails to Josh DuBois, Director of Religious Affairs for Senator Obama's campaign, requesting to interview the Senator about his beliefs. DuBois has not even had the common courtesy to respond, even to say no. He might take the request a bit more seriously if he gets 100,000 phone calls and emails in the next few days, so I am asking you to take a moment today and call Mr. DuBois and send him an email. Simply state that there are legitimate questions whether Senator Obama is really a Christian based on his words and deeds, and encourage the Senator to sit down for an on-camera interview with me to answer those critical questions so people will know whether he truly is a Christian as he claims. Thank you for helping me in this effort. To contact Josh DuBois, call 1-312-819-2008 and ask for his office. His email address is: jdubois@barackobama.com

Did you know that Bill Keller is a convicted felon who served three years in prison for a crime involving turpitude? Or that the only degree he possesses is a bachelor's in "general studies" from Jerry Falwell's Liberty University? He's hardly a "Bible scholar". He's the last one to haranguing ANYONE on who's a liar or dishonest.

and here is kellers excuse: 
?I have clearly stated in the past that the penalty for a false prophet is to be stoned to death. I support that standard and am willing . . . The fact is, God is never wrong. I will make no excuses.? ? Words of Bill Keller from the Daily Devotional on March 10, 2004 in reference to Presidential Prophecy given on March 8, 2004." 
Back in March, I clearly was hearing God?s voice as He spoke to me about this recent Presidential election and that President Bush would not be re-elected and why. I come to you this morning to ask your forgiveness. God is never wrong, I clearly was.

THESE ARE KELLERS OWN WORDS FROM HIS DEVOTIONAL, YES HE DOES CLAIM TO BE A PROPHET AND HE PROVED HIMSELF TO BE A FALSE PROPHET.  
I am also very well aware that Pat Robertson has predicted President Bush will win in a landslide. The fact is, on November 9th, either Pat Robertson or Bill Keller will be wrong. I have clearly stated in the past that the penalty for a false prophet is to be stoned to death. I support that standard and am willing, I wonder if Pat is. Like most who say they hear from God and have been wrong, Pat has always found an excuse why he was wrong and just keeps on going. The fact is, God is NEVER WRONG. One of us is a false prophet! I will make NO EXCUSES

Posted by NO!!! Obama NOT Christian!!!, on 17-06-2008 21:55,
Keller is not a prophet at all - therefore he is NOT a false prophet! How can someone that isn't even the thing you call him be a false thing he isn't? Keller is human - he called something that is political - big deal. Is what he is saying about Obama true? That is the thing to answer here in this forum - that is what we are trying to realize here? Biblically, where does Obama stand with Christ???? Does his record show he is a believer or not? NO - ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! OBAMA IS NOT A CHRISTIAN!!!

Bill, I applaud you for taking a very public stand against the "Christianity" of Obama. I am a strong believer in "talk the talk, walk the walk". Obama in no way backs up his talk with Christian actions. I will pray for this man to turn his back on his secular world views and bow down before his REAL Father and beg for forgiveness for his actions. There is only ONE WAY and it is HIS WAY. Bill, you are blessed in what you do. God protect you, my friend.

Thank you Bill for having the courage to make sure the TREE and the FRUIT match-up. I true Christian TREE founded in Christ and filled with the Holy Spirit, would never advocate the killing of unborn babies and condone the marriage of homosexual people. Homosexual desires are rooted in sin. Just like pedophile desires are rooted in sin. Will we allow pedophiles to teach kindergarten next? Where do you stop if you are going to advocate sin?

Bill, Thank you for your perseverence in diligently exposing Senator Obama for who he really is. May the world come to realize the truth about Sen. Obama but more importantly, may they recognize who the True Savior of this world really is JESUS the CHRIST! Heb 12: 1 let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Thank you, Bill, for this article and your persistence in seeking a question from Senator Obama on this matter. No answer need be given by the senator himself, as his actions and deeds speak loudly enough. I have said before, and will say again, the power behind his popularity and success thus far is not a godly one. He is portrayed as the "savior of the world" which has whispers of what the anti-christ will be marketed as when his time comes. I consider this a glimpse into that time when all the world will be decieved, even the elect. Thank you for what you do. You are annoited in God's work

If Obama is the Christian he says he is then why won't he defend himself to Bill Keller. Why? because sin cannot come into the light! I applaud Bill Keller for bringing all this to the surface for all to see!!

There are no gray areas in the Bible. God is the only one that can make this prediction and if Obama is a Christian, he would not believe in abortions or homosexuality. I would like to know what Bible Obama is using. I believe he rather not speak about his Christianity and would love to see him on Bill Keller's program.
