Obama’s Ignoble
Inaugural
Illinois Family Institute – Laurie
Higgins – 1/10/2013
Rev. Louie Giglio was asked to give
the benediction at President Obama’s inauguration as a result of his work to end
human trafficking. But yesterday homosexual activists apoplectic over his
invitation exposed Giglio’s dark secret, which led the White House to compel him
to withdraw from participating in the inaugural
ceremony.
And what was Giglio’s sin? His “sin”
was preaching a sermon fifteen years ago that expressed theologically orthodox
views of homosexuality (gasp).
Dr. Russell Moore, Dean of the
School of
Theology at Southern
Baptist Theological Seminary, addresses the serious constitutional issues that this
inaugural dust-up reveals:
We don’t have a natural right to
pray at anyone’s inauguration. But when one
is pressured out from a previous invitation because he is too “toxic” for simply
mentioning once something universal in the Christian faith, we ought to see what
we’re looking at: A STATE CHURCH .
Obama’s unflappably cool demeanor
and ”can’t we all just get along” rhetoric are exposed for the deceits
they are by his relentless in-your-face assault on conservative values and
religious liberty. He’s not liberal; he’s radical. And he’s not an irenic
unifier; he’s a presumptuous and aggressive divider. He’s now
using the ceremonial occasion of his inauguration, which should be a moment of
national unity, to slap conservatives in the face—no, make that stomp on their
faces with mud-encrusted jack boots.
“Woe to those
who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for
darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!” ~Isaiah
