The great American Patriot and Baptist Richard Furman wrote about this when communist heresy first began to justify and misinterpret the Bible on social matters. "The Christian golden rule, of doing to others, as we would they should do to us, has been urged as an unanswerable argument against holding slaves. But surely this rule is never to be urged against that order of things, which the Divine government has established; nor do our desires become a standard to us, under this rule, unless they have a due regard to justice, propriety and the general good.A father may very naturally desire, that his son should be obedient to his orders: Is he, therefore, to obey the orders of his son? A man might be pleased to be exonerated from his debts by the generosity of his creditors; or that his rich neighbour should equally divide his property with him; and in certain circumstances might desire these to be done: Would the mere existence of this desire, oblige him to exonerate his debtors, and to make such a division of his property? Consistency and generosity, indeed, might require it of him, if he were in circumstances which would justify the act of generosity; but, otherwise, either action might be considered as the effect of folly and extravagance."

No surprise, Obama uses the Communist interpretation of "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" which he grossly abuses as history has proven that others have done before him. We are not to expect others to treat us without regard t justice, that is contrary to the laws of righteousness. We should not expect that our evil Behavior be accepted but condemned and frowned upon. Trace the Communist principles which began with Nat Turner and the radical abolitionist John Brown comma who led insurrections and murdered others! in the cause of 'social justice' by abusing scripture in the same manner. This is the doctrine of liberalism, the misinterpretation of love and Golden Rule, abuse of scripture to raise up humanist laws vs. God's laws. "Judge with righteous judgement", said Jesus of the Bible. |

John MacArthur advocates passivity and separation from Christians contending for the truth, and reproving of immorality and irrational thinking and laws by politicians. What?! This is not what early American Christians did or would do! MacArthur is teaching that Christians should not engage in any political or social activism, under the half-truth of only some scripture, as if Christians have any RESPONSIBLE SOCIAL OR POLITICAL STANDING AS CITIZENS TOWARD IMPROVING THE COUNTRY LAWS OR REASONS, while he heathen brazenly rebuke Christians for lack of a false love and false Justice while they promote or support social anarchy of the most irrational and perverse kind! Where did Baptists or Presbyterians in early American history ever keep silent regarding their contention, political and social, when public morals or Christian Liberty were threatened! No, they would dispute loudly with MACARTHUR S wrong contention contrary to being salt and light, not merely as evangelists, as citizens in but not of this world!..."When the church takes a stance that emphasizes political activism and social moralizing, it always diverts energy and resources away from evangelization. Such an antagonistic position toward the established secular culture invariably leads believers to feel hostile n |
