My answer about whether President Obama is a Christian would be the same as that of Republican presidential candidate Scott Walker: “I don’t know.” That’s also the answer I’d give about whether Scott Walker is a Christian. But Walker’s uncertainty about Obama is different from mine.
Walker said he wasn’t sure because he hadn’t talked to Obama about whether he is a follower of Christ. Since Walker is unconvinced by Obama saying he’s a Christian, I wonder what it would take to convince Walker.
Here are some Christian biblical recommendations that Walker would surely not require of a Christian Obama:
Acts 2:44 Let all be divided, each according to his need.
Matthew 19:21 To be perfect, sell your possessions and give it to the poor.
Mark 10:25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.
Acts 2:44: All the believers were united and shared everything with one another.
Matthew 5:42 When someone asks you for something, give it to him. When someone wants to borrow something, lend it to him.
Christians who call President Obama a socialist apparently don’t view Jesus as a socialist. But even an acknowledged socialist like Bernie Sanders isn’t as socialistic as Jesus.
