Maybe it’s just because he’s never actually spent any time reflecting about meaning;  Or maybe it’s because the audience is made up of people who thrice denied accepting the existence of God in their national party platform;  but a RIGHTEOUS God is nothing to fear.

God is not to “be feared“; such a concept is actually quite silly. What would any person of compassionate -or even deliberately honest- constitution, have to fear from our Lord and Savior ?

barackhusseinobama has no personal fear of God. He believes he is qualified to play the role of God (see his August 2011 comments to the Jewish rabbis describing himself as being “a partner with God in matters of life and death”) and he considers it appropriate to describe his task as putting the fear of God into an audience.

Anyone who actually fears the Sovereign God does not use that kind of language toward anyone, out of some level of understanding of their own need to fear God.

Believe what obama says about himself and what he reveals about himself. Do not doubt him.
