Trump Under Fire After Supporter Calls Obama a Muslim Foreigner

September 18, 2015

U.S. Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump is causing controversy yet again, this time for failing to correct a supporter who called President Barack Obama a Muslim and a foreigner.

The exchange came during a question-and-answer session late Thursday at a campaign rally in Rochester, New Hampshire.

“We have a problem in this country: it’s called Muslims,” said a man wearing a Trump T-shirt. “We know our current president is one. You know he’s not even American.”

“We need this question,” replied a smiling Trump, one of the highest-profile supporters of the so-called birther movement, which alleges – incorrectly – that Obama was born in Kenya and is therefore not an American citizen.

The Trump supporter continued: “We have training camps growing where they [Muslims] want to kill us. That’s my question: When can we get rid of them?”

“We’re going to be looking at a lot of different things,” said Trump. “You know, a lot of people are saying that and a lot of people are saying that bad things are happening out there.” …

Trump campaign officials later told several media outlets that the candidate did not hear the man’s question about Obama being a Muslim, and that his answer was in response to the part about the extremist training camps. …

Obama is a Christian who was born in Hawaii to an American mother and Kenyan father. Nonetheless, he has faced persistent skepticism by many on the right who say that he is a Muslim and was born in Kenya. http://www.voanews.com/content/trump-does-not-object-as-supporter-calls-obama-a-muslim-foreigner/2968927.html

It is a fact that Barack Obama is at least a Muslim sympathizer and he most certainly is not a true Christian.

Jesus warned:

46 But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say? (Luke 6:46)

As far as Barack Obama’s faith and Muslim sympathies, etc. go, notice what is included in my book Barack Obama, Prophecy, and the Destruction of the United States-Second Edition for Second Obama Term:

Is Barack Obama Muslim, a Real Christian, or?

Many have wondered, “Is Barack Obama Muslim?“

No, not if one needs to proclaim Islam to be one. Barack Obama’s personal religion is not Islam.

Here is what his Fight the Smears website claimed:

The Truth About Barack’s Faith

Barack Obama is a committed Christian. He was sworn into the Senate on his family Bible. He has regularly attended church with his wife and daughters for years.

But shameful, shadowy attackers have been lying about Barack’s religion, claiming he is a Muslim instead of a committed Christian. (Fight the Smears. http://fightthesmears.com/articles/3/baracksfaith viewed 11/29/08)

Barack Obama says he is not a secret Muslim. Presuming that is true, in that sense he will not fit prophecies that indicate that a committed Muslim will do anything.

Yet, some have argued that because his father (or at least grandfather) was considered a Muslim, that Barack Obama is considered to be one also by birth, even if he has never embraced Islam. Thus, in that sense, some may consider him to be a Muslim.

Barack Obama, himself, claims Christ, although he does not seem to be highly involved with religion. For example, in the first few weeks after the election, he did not attend any church service, according to new reports 9Martin J, Lee C. Obama skips church, heads to gym. Politico, 11/23/08) and rarely has done so since.

However, because he does not seem to have much focus on end-time biblical prophecies (though that could change), Barack Obama does not seem to understand many end-time biblical events. This has lead him to be more accommodating to the rise of the Beast and King of the South powers than one who understands end-time prophecy would likely be.

Here are a dozen reasons that some have challenged Barack Obama’s repeated claims about really being a Christian:

He stopped regularly attending outside church services after becoming elected President of the United States (except for some public events; cf. Matthew 23:6-7)–so his sincerity is doubted.

He has repeatedly pushed the homosexual agenda (cf. Romans 1:18-32).

One of his first acts after taking office was to increase international funding for abortions. He has made numerous public statements supporting abortion (Stafford, Cardinal James Francis. Cardinal’s Address to Catholic University of America, November 13, 2008. Catholic News Agency. http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/document.php?n=780 viewed 03/01/09).

On an international trip, he referred to the Muslim book as “the Holy Quran” (Moussly M. Obama cites Quran to reach Muslims from Egypt. Al Arabiya News, June 4, 2009). Real Christians do not consider the Quran as holy.

While in office, he attended the first “feeding” for Ramadan multiple times. Christians are not supposed to observe holy days of other religions.

He has been found to carry a Hindu monkey god (he showed this publicly in June 2008 and said this was one of the things that helped keep him grounded: Mosk M. Indian Americans Take Note of Obama Because of Hanuman. Washington Post, June 27, 2008). No Christian intentionally carries around pagan idols or relies on them.

His U.S. Supreme Court appointees are believed to be supporters of on-demand abortion.

He seems more to support “freedom of worship” than “freedom of religion.” This has carried forward in his stance on forcing the paying for various forms of contraception, including abortive pills, as he seems to feel that his form of morality should trump those who have religious beliefs to the contrary(Nakamura D, Boorstein M. At prayer breakfast and with birth-control decision Obama riles religious conservatives. Washington Post, February 2, 2012). Barack Obama has often crossed a line that should concern all who profess Christ.

He seems to claim that political forms of covetousness are consistent with his “Christian Faith” values (cf. Exodus 20:17; Nakamura D, Boorstein M. At prayer breakfast and with birth-control decision Obama riles religious conservatives. Washington Post, February 2, 2012).

He regularly seems to advocate class warfare (cf. Exodus 23:2-3; e.g. Obama B. Transcript: President Obama delivers State of the Union speech. CNN, January 24, 2012).

He has increased the regulatory burden on some Americans excessively (cf. Jesus’ warnings Matthew 23:4-5) and will do more of that. Some of that burden, in certain fields, is also a type of censorship. Government censorship, of religious and other ideas that used to be considered protected speech in the U.S.A., will increase (Amos 8:11)—and ultimately even the internet will be affected.

He and all others should open their Bibles and practice genuine Christianity, before they are subject to being misled by the modified, ecumenical religion that will come upon the whole world (cf. Revelation 13:3-4).

Is Barack Obama a Muslim Sympathizer?

Many have wondered if Barack Obama is a Muslim sympathizer. The answer to that question seems to be yes. He did grow up in Muslim Indonesia, however, and has had more early Muslim contacts than has anyone else ever elected as President of the United States. Therefore, he would probably have more reasons than most U.S. presidents to have sympathy for certain Muslim perspectives.

Here is some of what Barack Obama’s Fight the Smears website quoted about this:

Newsweek: Obama’s only personal contact with Islam came as a boy when he moved to Jakarta, Indonesia, with a stepfather who mixed his Islam with Hindu and Animist traditions…

Boston Globe: His Kenyan paternal grandfather and Indonesian stepfather were Muslim…

Thus, while the selected quotes seem to have been intended by the Obama campaign to minimize his ties to Islam, Barack Obama has more early ties to Islam than has any President of the United States in history.

Interestingly, in 2012 Newsweek referred to Barack Obama as “The First Gay President“ (WHISTLEBLOWER MAGAZINE: THE FIRST MUSLIM PRESIDENT The 1 honorary title Barack Obama doesn’t want – but definitely deserves. World News Daily, January 3, 2013) which would not be appropriate if he was truly Muslim or a real Christian.

Oddly, years ago, Barack Obama told Charles Bolden, the head of the National Aeronautic Space Administration (NASA), to set as one of his top priorities trying to make Muslims feel good about their historic contributions to science (Harnden T. Barack Obama: Nasa must try to make Muslims ‘fee good.’ The Telegraph, July 6, 2010). This is an unusual top priority for NASA (space exploration and U.S. interests always presumably had been its historic top priorities).

Interestingly, notice a report concerning Barack Obama and his long-term pastor, Jeremiah Wright:

According to Mr. Klein, Mr. Wright directly contradicts Mr. Obama’s narrative of having little contact with Trinity United Church. Instead, Mr. Wright alleges that he was Mr. Obama’s close spiritual and political adviser, someone who for more than 20 years shaped the future president’s worldview. In fact, the pastor claims that he was like “a second father” to Mr. Obama.

Furthermore, Mr. Wright says Mr. Obama possessed an “Islamic background” and despite his conversion to Christianity has never abandoned his Muslim roots. (Kuhner JT. Jonathan Wright can sink Obama. The Washington Times online, May 17, 2012)

The fact that Barack Obama was influenced by Jeremiah Wright seems confirmed by many matters, including the fact that Barack Obama wrote a book in 2008, The Audacity of Hope, which had the same title as an earlier sermon he reported that he heard Jeremiah Wright give (Obama B. Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance. Crown, 2007, p. 292).

As far as influence from Islam, like he had done before, on August 10, 2012, Barack Obama hosted an Iftar dinner related to the Islamic observance of Ramadan (President Obama’s Remarks at the White Houser Iftar Dinner. Huffington Post online, May 17, 2012). So, there are apparent ties to that faith.

Some have suggested that Barack Obama is actually Muslim and is under a taqiyya arrangement with Islam (a provision that supposedly authorizes deception) in order to deceive non-Muslims so he can advance Islam and groups likes the Muslim Brotherhood (Klein J. Muslim Brotherhood and Obama: Partners in Taqiyya. FrontPageMag.com January 24, 2012). This author cannot look into Barack Obama’s heart, so how deeply involved theologically he is with Islam is a question that only he and God can answer (cf. 1 Samuel 16:7). Barack Obama, himself, publicly claims as his religion his version of Christianity.

The front cover of the January 2013 edition of the magazine whistleblower calls Barack Obama “THE FIRST MUSLIM PRESIDENT” essentially because of how he was raised and how his Administration has handled various matters (WHISTLEBLOWER MAGAZINE: THE FIRST MUSLIM PRESIDENT The 1 honorary title Barack Obama doesn’t want – but definitely deserves. World News Daily, January 3, 2013)—not necessarily because they believe that he is somehow a “secret Muslim.”

Yet, irrespective of any tie Barack Obama may have to Islam or Christianity, it seems that his policies may lead to greater cooperation between the Arabic and non-Arabic Muslim nations (even if Barack Obama decides he has to intervene in Iran), which at some point, must end up with a leader (whom the Shi’ites tend to call a Mahdi and the Sunnis more likely to call a Caliph) whom the Bible warns will be the Future King of the South. (Thiel B. Barack Obama, Prophecy, and the Destruction of the United States-Second Edition for Second Obama Term. Nazarene Books, 2013, pp. 29-35)

Yesterday, in my regular Bible study, I read the following:

15 He who justifies the wicked, and he who condemns the just, Both of them alike are an abomination to the Lord. (Proverbs 17:15)

Barack Obama justifies abortion, the homosexual agenda, soft pornography, and other actions that are clearly condemned by the Bible, while vilifying those who differ from him as ‘extremists,’ ‘out-of-touch,’ etc. Sadly, he is among many this century that Proverbs 17:15 is referring to.

Perhaps I should add that Donald Trump has not demonstrated that he is a real Christians (James 2:18-25). But he certainly does not come across as a Muslim nor Muslim sympathizer. And no, I am not a fan of Donald Trump as he has made many statements that are contrary to scripture throughout the years, though he sometimes has also made some astute political observations.
