He Lives: A call for imprecatory prayer…

David Heddle has posted an important article about a Pastor named Wiley Drake who is given all Christians a bad name. He is asking people to pray for the death of President Obama?! Very stupid. I join Heddle in decrying such a thought. The's not godly. that's not Biblical. That's not common sense. I love this quote from Heddle.

Demonstrating that he [Wiley Drake]  is completely ignorant of the Baptist tradition of favoring separation of church and state, he has also prayed for God's wrath on Americans United for the Separation of Church and State. It appears that God is not listening. The prayers of a self-righteous ignoramus avail little. I hope the IRS nails his posterior.

I'm so glad that God does what He wants insteadm of listening to our stupidity!

Dr. Claude Mariottini - Professor of Old Testament: Praying for the Death of the President

Dr Claude Mariottini has written a great article on his blog refuting Wiley Drake who is advocating that we prary that God kills Barack Obama. His article is awesome and really exegetically sound. I think its important that Christians stand up and call Wiley Drake's remarks what they are: unbiblical. I would also add that  I think Wiley Drake is racially motivated. It can't be because of Obama's religion or policies because the truth is they are not much different than any President we have had up until now.  I loved the graphic Mariottini included in his post. Please read his post.
