I have pondered over the last several months whether our President is just corrupt or essentially evil based on his stands with regards to the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, forcing taxpayers (including me) to pay for abortions which we believe are murder of the unborn, and championing the cause of “science” over life regarding stem cell research.  Last week’s speech at Georgetown was just another log on the fire for me to contemplate.

Last week President Obama gave a speech on the U.S. economy at Georgetown University, America’s oldest Roman Catholic university. Prior to his speech, the White House asked Georgetown to cover up visible symbols of its Catholic heritage, and they complied!! (BTW – Does anyone wonder why the Catholic Church is in a shambles when Notre Dame and Georgetown are welcoming with open arms this anti-life President who stands against the Church in arguably the biggest issue facing the Church? (besides salvation through the Lord Jesus Christ))

After asking the Catholic symbols be covered, he then has the gall to refer to the parable of the two builders (Matthew 7:24-27) Jesus told at the Sermon on the Mount!  Unsurprisingly, he did not mention Jesus.

However, it is President Obama’s bastardization of this story that has me wondering whether his man is evil.  In the parable, Jesus contrasted two builders, one of whom built his house of a foundation of sand, and one who built his house upon rock.  When the storm came, the house built on the foundation of sand collapsed, “and it fell with a great crash.”  The house built on the rock stood firm.  We know the house built on the rock is the life whose foundation is Jesus.

However, the rock foundation of Barak Obama’s economic house is the government.

“It’s a foundation built upon five pillars that will grow our economy and make this new century another American century: new rules for Wall Street that will reward drive and innovation; new investments in education that will make our workforce more skilled and competitive; new investments in renewable energy and technology that will create new jobs and industries; new investments in health care that will cut costs for families and businesses; and new savings in our federal budget that will bring down the debt for future generations. That is the new foundation we must build. That must be our future – and my Administration’s policies are designed to achieve that future. “

Keep in mind that when the Pharisees tried to trick Jesus regarding government vs God, Jesus clearly delineated the difference – “And Jesus answered and said to them, “Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” (Mark 12:17)

So Jesus states He is the rock foundation upon which we should build our house and Barak Obama states the government is the rock foundation.  Whom do you think is correct on this matter?
