The Priests of False Worship

More accurately, the worship leaders of false worship. Oh Come let us adore him...

President Obama is not admired; He's worshiped. I suspect that makes him a bit uncomfortable as a Christian. I watched him with the Military folks at the Military ball. He genuinely enjoyed the camaraderie. In others sometimes the worship got strange.

The "Creative" ball was full of people who's worldview is very strange indeed.

And all day, viewers were pummeled with the equivalent of "Come on Church, Worship Him" by the leaders of the worship liturgy on "news" shows.

My concern is with the intense faith people have placed in a Man. My hope for him as President is that he do well. That he be wise. That he listens to the Good Counsel he has surrounded himself with. He is simply a leader who will need it. He knows it. His counselors know it. The people who worship him do not. They think he has all the answers. He doesn't.

The other day I watched the Passion of the Christ. It was only a week between Hosanna to the son of David and Crucify him. Crowd passion and false worship is pretty vacuous stuff. I know people who are great worshippers when things go well, let a hard thing come along and they will abandon even Jesus. And, President Obama isn't Jesus.

I saw tears in the crowd. That didn't make me feel any better.

President Obama. Get ready for Friday. It's coming. They will scream just as loud for your head, it'll just be different. They will want it on a silver platter. I wish you would have told them the truth in your Inaugural address. It would have made the medicine go down a bit better.

What probably makes me most sad is people who are treating this whole event as more than it is. Like some sea change has and will take place. It won't. They'll blame him for executing Bush's third term. They will hate him for the truth.

He'll throw them a bone. Make a proclamation or two. Meanwhile, He's a smart man, he'll do what he has been hired to do, he'll run the country as he should. He will be at the core the good man he is.

And the crowd will hate him for it. That is the penalty for violation of the commandment about idols or other god's.
