| Rev. Luis Leon and Barack Obama |
Either Barack Obama has the worst luck in picking the churches he attends, or he purposely chooses fellowships that promote his kind of "Christianity."
As a Chicagoan for over 20 years, Obama attended Trinity United Church of Christ located on the city's South Side. That church was pastored by the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, an arch-racist who preached the anti-Christian Black Liberation theology.
What's Black Liberation theology all about? It's very similar to what Louis Farrakhan's Nation of Islam preaches. The Nation of Islam teaches that whites are blue-eyed devils who have enslaved blacks into poverty, prisons, drug abuse, hopelessness etc. Black Liberation theology teaches that Jesus Christ came into the world to liberate blacks from political, economic and religious persecution perpetuated by white racists. It's no big surprise that Wright and Farrakhan just happen to be close friends.
Recently, on Easter Sunday, Obama ventured into St. John's Episcopalian Church, located in Washington. D.C. St. John's is pastored by the Rev. Luis Leon, who is--to put it mildly--a liberal theologian.
What is a liberal theologian? Someone who claims to be a servant of Jesus Christ who promotes unbiblical doctrines that are contrary to the teachings of Christ. For example, according to St. John's own website, Leon "was a founding member of both the Washington Interfaith Network and the Wilmington (Delaware) Interfaith Network."

The term "Interfaith" is an oxymoron to Christianity. Why? Because the true biblical gospel of Jesus Christ is exclusive while an interfaith gospel is very inclusive or ecumenical. Christ himself excluded all world religions and their gods as valid paths to heaven and eternal life with this statement: "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the (Heavenly) Father except through me." (John 14:6)
Rev. Leon doesn't believe that. However, like Obama's former pastor, Rev. Wright, he does believe that conservative Christians who take the Bible literally and seriously are some of the most dangerous people on earth. Here's what Leon said during his Easter sermon with Obama in attendance: "It drives me crazy when the captains of the religious (Christian) right are always calling us back...for blacks to be back in the back of the bus...for women to be back in the kitchen...for immigrants to be back on their side of the border."

Rev. Luis Leon and his followers, including President Barack Obama, may truly believe that he's a genuine Christian and a servant of Jesus Christ. But he's not. He's a phony who, while claiming to unite people in love, actually divides them with hatred. Rev. Luis Leon is a hypocrite--the very type of person that he condemns in his pathetic sermons.
True Born-Again, bible-believing Christians don't want to force blacks to sit in the back of the proverbial bus. Nor do they want to force Hispanics and other ethnic groups to go back to their native countries. Rev. Luis Leon should be ashamed of himself for spewing such garbage on an Easter Sunday.
And anyone who calls himself or herself a Christian shouldn't set foot in a church such as St. John's. At least not until the Rev. Luis Leon no longer stinks up its pulpit with his corrupt presence.
