Do you feel the leaked information from a global warming alarmist organization is meaningful?



8.       Sen. McCain, during an interview with Charles Gibson on "Good Morning America," President Bush was asked: "Do Christians and non-Christians and Muslims go to heaven in your mind?" Bush replied, "Yes, they do. We have different routes of getting there..." Do you agree with President Bush? Do Christians and non-Christians and Muslims go to heaven in your mind? What is the source of your opinion on this matter?

9.       Sen. Obama, you support federal sexual orientation non-discrimination laws and if elected would sign the proposed Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA). Under that law, religious organizations and churches like Saddleback would have to hire cross dressers and transvestites, for example, or face criminal fines and prosecution. Why should a church like ours that believes, based on what the Scriptures say, that homosexuality is a perversion of God's natural law, be forced by the government to hire practicing homosexuals or face criminal charges?

10.   Question for both: Can we ever expect God's divine protection and blessings in this country if we continue to kill 4,000 babies per day?

11.   Question for both: What specific Bible verses are most encouraging to you that sustain you in times of personal crisis?

12.   Question for both: 2 Timothy 3:16 states that “All scripture is God breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” Do you agree that every word of the Bible is the inerrant, authoritative, infallible word of God? If not, how do you determine what is God breathed and what isn’t?

13.   Question for both: What has your personal salvation meant to you in your life? Who is Jesus in your life?

14.   Question for both: How much will reading God's word and daily prayer influence what you do in the Oval Office if elected?

15.   Questions for both: What is the message of the Gospel?

Knowledge of Truth,Understanding,&Wisdom
The Word of God is spiritually discerned.
The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.(1 Cor 2:14)

If you read the Bible and it does not make sense to you; sit down and talk to someone so they can help you. You have to be aware of the spiritual warfare. We are walking spirits in bodies. There are forces at work that allow us to worship good or evil. We all have a destiny and that is either Heaven or Hell. God is good and righteous and faithful to His children. The biggest lie that our nation believes is that Satan does not exist. Believing in Good and not Believing there is Bad is clouded reality. There is always absolute and relative. night and day. Good or evil.denying the devil's existence gives him unacceptable leverage in his efforts. He is spirit and he USES people as hosts.

Look what he has done over the course of 30 years! We are not on this earth to be happy. We are here to carry out a purpose.



I challenge everyone who is making reference to Faith, Bible, Jesus, and God to really study it out. Sure we all know little snapshots and verses from the Bible but do you know what it really means? If so alot of these postings would not be on here. Alot of it is foolish talk to those who don't have a relationship with Jesus. How can you talk about God when you don't know him? To know him and to love him is to know and obey his commands. John 14:15-17. Sure we know of HIM but can you honestly say you have a relationship with God? IF you can't say it with confidence then seek his Kingdom and the wool will be removed from your eyes to see the thin veil between the physical realm (us as humans in the human form) and the spiritual realm (Holy Spirt, Angels, Demons, Satan,etc.) Its real but you have the power of choice.

Great Questions!

Those are great questions. I wouldn't mind hearing Warren's answers of them as well as McCain's and Obama's.

Obama said that the Sermon on the Mount gives approval for gay marriage. I've looked and looked and it's not there. And he also said that John 14:6 can be interpreted in many ways. How, I have no idea!

Too bad they can't have an actual Bible believing preacher do this instead of Warren.
