Tim Wildmon, president of the Christian
conservative American Family Association (AFA), has warned that
President Barack Obama's support for gay rights may lead to God's
destruction of America.
“If I may be so blunt, we have a
president who is promoting an agenda much of which is in direct
violation of God's law,” Wildmon
wrote in this month's AFA Journal.
“Our president is
promoting the gay, lesbian, bi-sexual, transgendered and queer agenda
like there is no tomorrow. God says homosexuality is immoral,
unnatural and unhealthy and should be repented of, not embraced and
celebrated as a valid 'alternative lifestyle.'”
“And on the issue
of religious freedom, the president is trying to use the Affordable
Care Act (Obamacare) to force Christian-owned businesses such as
Hobby Lobby to violate their convictions. My goodness, the Obama
administration even went after the Little Sisters of the Poor, a
Catholic charity serving the elderly poor.”
“Humanly
speaking, it's easy to lose hope because the effects on our country
by this kind of godlessness are devastating. The Scripture shows us
that God sometimes destroyed nations for their rebellion against His
moral standards and their lack of repentance. It will happen to us
as well if we continue down this path away from God. I confess I get
frustrated when I hear some of our fellow Christians saying we should
disengage from politics, government and culture, as if we think we
can live in isolation from the world around us,” he added.
