Rick Warren Says Obama Deification is Blasphemy

“That’s called creating an idol,” he said. “Idolatry is forbidden by the first two commandments of the Ten Commandments.

Rick may want to read The Thirteen Foundations of the Ramba'm before he starts pointing fingers at idolaters!

Rick Warren Says Obama Deification is Blasphemy?

Rick Warren, one of the nation’s most prominent pastors, told Fox News he is extremely concerned about recent attempts in the media to deify President Obama. He was especially disturbed comments made by comedian Jamie Foxx who called the president “our Lord and Savior.”

“That sent shivers up my spine,” said Warren. “There’s a word for that – it’s called blasphemy. It’s wrong.”

Warren is pastor of Saddleback Church in southern California. He’s also the author of an expanded edition of “The Purpose Driven Life – What on Earth Am I Here For?”

Instances of the president being portrayed as a Christ-like figure have increased since the Democratic National Convention – where unauthorized street vendors sold Obama prayer garments and posters that proclaimed him to be “prophecy fulfilled.”

A painting of the president portrayed as the Crucified Christ is on exhibit at Bunker Hill Community College in Boston. The artwork shows Obama with outstretched arms – a crown of thorns on his head.

But one of the more egregious instances of deification came during last week’s Soul Train Awards.

“It’s like church over here,” Foxx told the audience. “First of all, give an honor to God and our Lord and Savior Barack Obama.”

Warren, the pastor of Saddleback Church in southern California, said the deification of any individual is simply wrong.

“That’s called creating an idol,” he said. “Idolatry is forbidden by the first two commandments of the Ten Commandments.

He said individuals who do put their faith in President Obama “are going to be severely disappointed.”

“Think about all the promises that were made four years ago,” Warren said. “None of them were fulfilled.”

Those people are going to be severely disappointed.

If you put your hope in an individual – think about all the promises that were made four years ago. None of them were fulfilled.

He said that President Obama promised to unite the nation – and would bring about hope and change.

“It’s more divided now than it’s ever been,” Warren said. “That’s disappointing.”

“Any human leader – conservative or liberal – is going to disappoint you at some point,” he added. “You’ve got to put your hope in things that never change.”[1]

**********************************************************************************************************************************

The Third Foundation is that He is not physical. This means to believe that the One whom we have mentioned is not a body and His powers are not physical. The concepts of physical bodies such as movement, rest, or existence in a particular place cannot be applied to Him. Such things cannot be part of His nature nor can they happen to Him. Therefore the Sages of blessed memory stated that the concepts of combination and separation do not apply to Him and they said, "Above there is no sitting nor standing, no separation nor combination... The prophet says, "To whom can you compare Me? To what am I equal? Says the Holy One." (Yeshaya [Isaiah] 40:25) If He would be a physical body He would be comparable to physical bodies.

In all places where the Holy Scriptures speak of Him in physical terms, as walking, standing, sitting, speaking and anything similar, it is always metaphorical, as our Sages of blessed memory said, "The Torah speaks in the language of men". Our sages have discussed this issue at length.

This third foundation is referred to when [the Torah] says, "For you did not see any form" (Devarim [Deuteronomy] 4:15), in other words, you did not perceive him as being an entity with a form because, as we mentioned, He is not physical and His power is not physical. [2]

Are Christians of today idol worshipers?

The Trinity and Deity of Jesus:
What the Bible Really Teaches

By John of AllFaith © 04.20.12

Let's discuss this on his Blog! Questioner: llewellyn Private: No Subject: Godhead
Question: Because Jews now accepted Christ, do they also accept the TRINITY formulated by Roman Catholic Church. What is your view of Jesus Christ and the Godhead?
Hi Llewellyn, Clarification: The vast majority of Jews today as in the past do not "accept Christ." Most continue to reject the claims of Y'shua (Jesus) being Messiah for the same reasons they always have -- of course, all of the original talmidim ("disciples") were Jewish. These reasons by the way are biblically solid. They are based on the fact that he has not (yet at least) fulfilled the most critical prophetic requirements of that office (as Messianics we simply disagree with our non-Messianic Jewish kin on these matters). More than that however, the continuing Jewish rejection of Y'shua's claims is based on what the Nicene Christian Church teaches about him and much of what they have done (and continue to do) in his name. No Torah observant Jew could possibly accept the Jesus of Nicene Christianity, in part because of their anti-Torah trinity doctrine.   Understand that the vast majority of people now calling themselves "Messianic Jews" are not really Jews at all (Revelation 2:9, 3:9)! They are Nicene Christian Gentiles (i.e. non-Jews who embrace the Nicene Creed of the Catholic Church -- as almost every Christian denomination and sect does -- including "Jews for Jesus" and similar "Messianic Christians" -- You can read the Nicene Creed HERE if interested to see why this document must be rejected by those who accept the teachings of Torah.
Rav John directly warns about such people "who claim to be Jews but are not" at Revelation 2:9, 15 and 3:9. Its a serious offense against the elect of God.
Becoming Jewish (Messianic or otherwise) requires formal conversion into Judaism by a Jewish beit din and the embrace of the essential Jewish doctrine: The absolute Oneness of God as declared in the Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4). Like all Torah observant Jews, authentic Messianic Jews reject the Trinity doctrine, the deity of Rebbe Y'shua and/or any other created being, and several other key doctrines created by the Romans in the 3rd and 4th centuries (following their destruction of the Holy Temple in 70 CE).
The Bible is clear on these points: Rebbe Y'shua (Torah teacher Jesus) was the first created being (Colossians 1:12-15) -- God was never created.
Rebbe Y'shua is "one" with the Torah or "Word" of God (John 1:1) not with God in a literal sense -- Everything he taught and did was in complete harmony with Torah (John 5:19). Rebbe Y'shua is our elder brother (Hebrew 2:11) -- God is our Father (Matthew 6:9, note that he says "Our father" not "your father" or "Myself who is in Heaven").
All who are Torah observant are in this sense "one" with God (Hebrew 2:11) because they are in agreement with Torah (the Word) and Torah reveals the Mind of God. Torah is not God (John 1:1).
Rebbe Y'shua prayed for God's anointing on his followers that his talmidim (students) would be one with him (Y'shua) in the same way that he is one with the Father (John 17:22) -- Clearly Rebbe Y'shua was not praying that his talmidim would become gods!
Rav Paul clarifies this point concisely when he tells Timothy: "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (King James Version of I Timothy 2:5)
Rebbe Y'shua himself states: John 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.
John 14:28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
There are many many such Scriptures in the New Testament where he declare that God is greater, wiser, possesses more knowledge (Mark 13:32) etc. Rebbe Y'shua always submits his will to the superior Will of God (or in more Jewish terms, he always chooses yetzer tov over yetzer ra) and he prayed that this would be equally true of those who embrace his reforms (John 17:11-23).
Rebbe Y'shua lived on earth as a fully Torah observant Jew. He said that not a single yod would every be removed from Torah. So what does Torah say on this subject?
Deuteronomy 6:4 "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one [echad] LORD:"
The God of Israel and the Bible is "echad," a word that means "one and only" "one and there is no other" despite how some Nicene Christians are trying twist its meaning. What does it mean that God is One? Prophet Isaiah quotes the One God as saying:
Isaiah_43:11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.
There is NO ONE equal to, independent of nor empowered as, HaShem, the God of Israel as even the name Y'shua means: "Salvation is of Yah."
GOD alone saves. He does this through various means according to His purposes.
In the Bible Ba'al worship is frequently and thoroughly rejected for the Jews and other followers of biblical religion. Ba'al worship is essentially the belief in a godhead that is divisible and that manifests as separate gods (known as ba'als or "masters"), each controlling various aspects of existence as demigods or devas as they are known in India. This is widely known. For instance:

"Ba'al" can refer to any god and even to human officials; in some texts it is used as a substitute for Hadad, a god of the rain, thunder, fertility and agriculture, and the lord of Heaven. Since only priests were allowed to utter his divine name, Hadad, Ba'al was commonly used. Nevertheless, few if any Biblical uses of "Ba'al" refer to Hadad, the lord over the assembly of gods on the holy mount of Heaven, but rather refer to any number of local spirit-deities worshipped as cult images, each called Ba'al and regarded in the Hebrew Bible in that context as a "false god" (Source)

THE revelation of Abraham was and is that there is only One God, Eternal and Indivisible.
Abraham's own father produced ba'als for worship, but HaShem revealed to the patriarch of our people the singularly important truth that God is echad, that God is indivisibly One. The Nicene trinity doctrine and the doctrine of the deity of Y'shua created in the 3rd and 4th centuries CE by a group of non-Jewish Roman bishops denies this fundamental revelation of God, this foundational declaration of biblical and Jewish religion.
No one who accepts this teaching can accurately be considered religiously Jewish.[3] http://allfaith.com/Religions/Noahide/trinity.html

When Christianity Becomes Idolatry

Are You Making Christianity an Idol? 6 Questions to Help You Find Out.

by Matt Johnson

I am standing in front of a church congregation with a microphone in-hand. The pastor had asked me to give a short testimony about when I came to the church and what was going on in my life at the time. Here’s, essentially, what I said:

I came to the church during a confusing time in my life. I was struggling with theological and philosophical ideas and there were some people in the church who understood my questions and helped straighten me out.

Recollections of Idolatry


Fast forward about five years. I am on a stroll with my wife through a park on a sunny spring day. Out of nowhere I get a revelation. That little speech in front of the church all those years ago was idolatry.


The backstory to that mini-testimony is that a couple years prior, I’d come out of a rebellious, sinful time of my life. I’d gotten “straightened out” but I had never truly faced my sin before my savior. Instead, I’d accepted the counterfeit of deep theological study. I’d fallen for the subtle lie that knowledge of good Christian theology served as my justification.

All I’d done was exchange the truth for a lie and served created things for the Creator God (Rm. 1:25). I’d taken a good gift from God and used it for my own purposes of looking good in front of others. If I were to infuse some truth serum into that speech, it would sound a little more like this, “Hi, I am guilt-ridden over some past sin but I’ve pridefully never really faced the fact that my sin is treason against God. So rather than call it sin, I’ll just say I’ve been trying to crack a  ‘theological problem’ so you’ll think I’m smart.”


Even good Christian theology can become an idol. When Christian belief is information detached from the substance of Jesus’ objective work on the cross for sinners, it becomes idolatry. Like it or not, you and I are guilty of it. How so?

1. Do you live for the approval of others in the church?
2. Do you stew over your spiritual performance and personal holiness more than you steep in what God has already accomplished for you in Jesus?
3. Are you prideful about your biblical knowledge?
4. Do you love to debate finer points of theology with others and get angry when you’re challenged by your views?
5. Are you feeling burnt out and joyless in your service to those in the church?
6. Are you uncomfortable with suffering people and find you’re quick to recite Bible verses as a way to avoid awkward, personal engagement? 

If you answered "yes" to any of these, there is a good chance you have taken God’s good gifts and used them for your own selfish purpose.

You have used God to make yourself look good through your service, your knowledge, and personal growth. This form of idolatry is hard to detect because the “fruit bearing” looks good to everyone else.

Let's face facts though; it's idolatry.

Religion is a golden calf


The clearest picture of idolatry in the Bible is the Exodus 32narrative on the golden calf.

This narrative isn’t simply a message that pagans, perverts, and addicts need to hear; it's also for religious folk like you and me.

When God looked down from the mountain and found his people had crafted the Golden Calf, he wasn’t simply witnessing immoral living. He saw a people he had redeemed that had taken his good gifts and used them against him. While it's not explicitly stated in the text, the gold the Israelites used to make the calf was intended for God’s purposes. Later in the narrative we see the leftover gold is used for the building of the tabernacle. Just think about that for a minute. The Israelites used God's gift for their own selfish purposes.


In creating the golden calf, the people had committed high treason. Even though the true God had always proven himself faithful, they just couldn’t wait. They needed a God that met them on their terms, a God of their choosing that they could define and control. We’re so quick to judge those primitive, control-addicted Israelites. What we miss in those people are you and me.

Hi My Name's Joe Christian and I'm a religious addict


Religion is control addiction. In the appendix to Redemption, Mike Wilkerson comments on a lecture given by David Powlison at the 2008 CCEF conference titled, The Addict in Us All. Religious addiction has a least two components: impression management and escape from sin.

“Religiosity is about the show, the 'impression management,' and the trappings of religion, but not its faith and certainly not its God. Like any other addiction, religiosity serves as an escape from reality. Are youdevastated by the loss of a loved one? 'God is sovereign,' blurts the stoic religious addict, like a knee reflex, and by this he means, 'Don’t feel it; don’t think about it; just detach yourself from it. Since God is sovereign, why should you bother?'

The religious addict escapes the reality of his own sin too....he justifies himself by the doing of and associating with religious stuff: serving, reading, teaching, praying, and church-going, along with adopting the lingo, aesthetic tastes, and moral lifestyle typical of other religious people. These are his “sacrifices” to gain his god’s favor and retain his righteous standing. But he is as deceived and rebellious as the Israelites imitating orthodoxy through idolatry.”

Religion is about control amidst brokenness


Religion is God-talk we use for our own controlling purposes. We use his word as a defense mechanism against him and other people. It’s a kind of excuse-making for God as if we’re smart enough to know what he’s up to when life is difficult. Its time to face the pain of a broken world without our pre-packaged religious answers. To gloss over our pain and suffering or someone else’s through religiosity is inhumane.

We love the story of the cross as a get-me-out-of-hell free card. But nobody wants to face the cross when it’s time to put sin to death, extend love to others in crisis, or come to terms with the brokenness of our world. The problem is, like the Pharisees, we prefer our safe religion over the death of our selfish spiritual aspirations.


Graced pharisees called out of slavery

The word Pharisee is synonymous with hypocrite. Many Christians don’t know when they are being hypocritical. Identifying our need to appear religious by spiritual performance or being a Bible know-it-all is difficult because doing religion seems like the right thing to do. It feels good to us and looks good to others, but our religion offends God.

If this is all true, if you and I are religious addicts and idolaters, we have a big problem on our hands. God’s anger against us is justified in the same way his anger was justified when the Israelites made the golden calf. Now is the time for repentance.

The good news is when we confess, he is faithful to forgive: 1 John 1:9 says, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” Fortunately, many of the Hebrews were spared for Moses' sake. We too are spared for Jesus' sake. He is the greater intercessor. Not only does he intercede on our behalf and forgive us our sin, he restores and sustains us. Reaching back to Exodus 17, 1 Corinthians 10:4 says the Israelites "drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ."

God has called us out of slavery. We are his treasured possession.

While we are faithless, he has remained faithful. Our idols are wrought with the unholy sacrifice of his good gifts. We have crawled up into God’s lap only to slap him. But thanks be to God, rather than punish us, he graces us. And his grace is big enough even for Pharisees like Paul, and like you, and like me.

He leads us out, he leads us through, he atones for sin, and he leads us home.

"He leads us out, he leads us through, he atones for sin, and he leads us home"

The Nicene dogma of "the blood atonement" causes many to question and even reject the clear word of Torah! Some even claim that the Torah of HaShem has been "nailed to the cross" and made irrelevant! However the books of the B'rit Hadashah (New Testament) also disprove this common heresy. As authentic Messianic Jews this is very important to understand.

The Bible Clarifies Everything:

Deuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers:every man shall be put to death for his own sin.  source:

4:40 Rabbi Gutman Lock explains Torah, why Christianity and Mainstream 'Messianic Christianity' are missing this truth.

This site is for entertainment purposes only and is done in parody..."It's a joke son..."~Foghorn Leghorn  Close only counts in Horseshoes... and Hand Grenades Look for Updates throughout 2012     What, EXACTLY does the TaNaCH (bible) say about human sacrifices? You may be surprised What, EXACTLY does the TaNaCH (the Bible) say about human sacrifice?  "The concept of sacrificing something important to the gods or to spirits is common in religions around the world. Usually, the more important the god or the request, the more important the sacrifice had to be. The most important thing which could be sacrificed was, usually, a human being. It does not appear that all religions engaged in human sacrifice, but it seems that many did. Usually, the person was sacrificed for the sake of the welfare of the entire community - to appease and angry god who had cursed the tribe, to plea for better crops, to ensure success in a coming battle, etc. The concept of needing to sacrifice an innocent human to placate an angry god even survived into Christianity, and is as basis for the idea of Jesus' death being a sacrifice to atone for the sins of humanity.” What, EXACTLY does God say about human sacrifice in the TaNaCH? IN SHORT... What, EXACTLY does God say about human sacrifice in the TaNaCH? In Deuteronomy 12:30-31, God calls Human sacrifice something that He hates, and an abomination to Him, "for every abomination to the Eternal, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods. In Jeremiah 19:4-6, God tells us that Human sacrifice is so horrible a concept to Him, that it did not even come into His mind to demand it from His creation, "They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind." We see the same thing in Psalm 106:37-38, and in Ezekiel 16:20. This means that God would not accept Jesus's death on the cross as a blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins. The very idea of that God would accept a human sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins is UnBiblical. A FULL EXPLANATION... The Christian idea of the messiah is that Jesus was the blood sacrifice that saves everyone from his or her sin. But who, EXACTLY died on that cross? If it was Jesus-the-god, then how can God die? If it was only Jesus-the-human, then all Christians have in the death of Jesus is a human sacrifice. And what, EXACTLY does God say about human sacrifice in the TaNaCH? In Deuteronomy, God calls Human sacrifice something that He hates, and an abomination to Him! Take heed to thyself that thou be not snared by following them, after that they be destroyed from before thee; and that thou inquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise. Thou shalt not do so unto the Eternal thy God: for every abomination to the Eternal, which he hateth, have they done unto their gods; for even their sons and their daughters they have burnt in the fire to their gods. [Deuteronomy 12:30-31] In Jeremiah, God tells us that Human sacrifice is so horrible a concept to Him, that it did not even come into His mind! Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it unto other gods, whom neither they nor their fathers have known, nor the kings of Judah, and have filled this place with the blood of innocents; They have built also the high places of Baal, to burn their sons with fire for burnt offerings unto Baal, which I commanded not, nor spake it, neither came it into my mind: Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Eternal, that this place shall no more be called Tophet, nor The Valley of the Son of Hinnom, but The Valley of Slaughter. [Jeremiah 19:4-6] We see the same thing in Psalm 106 and in Ezekiel 16: Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils, And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood. And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood. [Psalm 106:37-38] Moreover thou hast taken thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hast borne unto me, and these hast thou sacrificed unto them to be devoured. Is this of thy whoredoms a small matter? [Ezekiel 16:20] And yet we are to then turn around and believe that God changed His mind, and required human sacrifice, and then it was the sacrifice of His own human son that God wanted? After telling the Jews to stay away from pagan practices, and pagan beliefs, God then changes His mind and says, "Okay, now go ahead and believe in a human sacrifice, just as these very pagans believe?" The Christian definition of the term, Messiah, is closer to the pagan notion of a dying/saving god or hero than to the Jewish understanding of Messiah. The ancient world is filled with examples. Mithra, Adonis, Dionysis, Attis, Ra, and many others were born in the Winter, died in the Spring, and came back to life. Along with this, they believed that their followers would not die, but have immortal life, since the death of the hero/god acted as their sacrifice for their sins. The pagan world was filled with gods who were the product of a human mother and a god for the father. Even Hercules had Zeus for a father, and a human mother. When the earliest Christians would come into the synagogues and missionize, they would get kicked out. They were not allowed to stay and preach, they were rejected, because their message was pagan, was recognized as such by the Jews, and they were removed and separated from the Jewish people as a result. This shows the real reason why Judaism and Christianity separated from each other. It also shows that one cannot be a Jew and a Christian at the same time. The Nicene Christian Concept of "the Blood" There are some Nicene heresies that are so deeply rooted in the Christian psyche that for those seeking authentic biblical religion getting beyond them is very difficult, even with the Light of Torah. One of these is the "Blood of Jesus" dogma. The famous Christian hymn declares this central Nicene dogma clearly: What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus What can make me white as snow? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. The Nicene dogma of "the blood atonement" causes many to question and even reject the clear word of Torah! Some even claim that the Torah of HaShem has been "nailed to the cross" and made irrelevant!  The Bible Clarifies Everything: Deuteronomy 24:16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers:every man shall be put to death for his own sin. That this truth has never changed is made clear by Paul who said: Galatians 6:5 For every man shall bear his own burden. Iit has always been this way: Ezekiel 18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die. 18:20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. As there are two impulses that drive the human race: yetzer tov and yetzer ra. As Prophet Ezekiel says, the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him. The idea of an atonement in the Nicene sense would completely undermine this vital human responsibly and denigrate the very purpose of human existence. Why is this? Leviticus 6:30 And no sin offering, whereof any of the blood is brought into the tabernacle of the congregation to reconcile withal in the holy place, shall be eaten: it shall be burnt in the fire. Iits because ALL life exists in the hands of Adonai. All life is sacred and utterly dependent on HaShem alone. Deuteronomy 32:39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand. HaShem alone is our Savior and our Redeemer. It is solely by His Mercy that we exist and move and have our being. HaShem interacts with the material creation in various ways. Chief among these is through His anointed Moshiach, our Rebbe. Through the Mediation of HaMoshiach the material creation will in due course be redeemed and the present age will be replaced with the Olam Haba, the World to Come. ~Learn  More SOURCE:  http://www.jewtoo.org/ Read more at http://nudesforjesus.blogspot.com/2012/01/what-exactly-does-god-say-about-human.html#jjEd7H2U2TrLsMzC.99  If your god had the urge to use one of these  then he is not the G-d of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
