The Audacity

Call On the Name of Jesus

Food for thought.

Rom 10:9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved

To call on the Lord is to call on God.

Psalms 116:13 I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.

Zeph 3:9 "Then will I purify the lips of the peoples,that all of them may call on the name of the LORD and serve him shoulder to shoulder.

1 Cor 1:2 To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ—their Lord and ours

May God bless and keep you!

The Ineloquence of Obama

If John McCain had said all this, there would be cries of "senility". However, since this is Obama, he will get a free pass. Take away the teleprompter and Obama is far from a great orator.

Obama Never Knows

Senator Barack Obama is always shocked to know the character and nature of his friends and associates.

"This isn't the Tony Rezko I knew."

"The person I saw yesterday was not the person that I met 20 years ago...If Reverend Wright thinks that that’s political posturing, as he put it, then he doesn’t know me very well — based on his remarks yesterday I may not know him as well as I thought either,” Obama said.

Also, Pfleger. Their relationship spans decades. Pfleger has given money to Obama's campaigns and Obama as a state legislator directed at least $225,000 towards social programs at St. Sabina's.
