I came across an article today on Facebook that was posted by "The Federalist Papers".
It discusses much of what I have been blogging about in regard to what is happening within the Christian church. The article at "The Federalist Papers", however, is focused more on President Obama and his "faith" while my articles are focused more on the "infiltration" of the church. In any case, we both say the same thing about Liberation Theology and the "social justice" movement within the church. I was encouraged to find this. I thought I was out there all alone. Apparently this author has been to my blog. ;-) Kidding!!
But please take a moment to read his important information. I have posted the entire article as well as the link. I hate the ads on their site and would prefer no one has to go there to read the article, at least at my recommendation. In fact, I know I will want to read it again, but I don't want to have to look at the ads! The article is thought provoking and well written.
I have also posted some information at the bottom about the author of the article.
The Shocking Source of Obama’s Religion ~
By Russ Hepler
President Obama has not been shy about criticizing Christians
who hold a slightly different view of the faith than he does. He has used the IRS and other government
agencies to harass conservative Christian groups that oppose his social
agenda. But now, a shocking new report
sheds light on the source of President Obama’s faith. And, it is not one he will want to admit or
discuss at length.
Teaparty.org reports:
In a startling new interview, a 3-star general and former head
of Communist Romania’s secret police who defected to the United States in 1978,
claims that the Theology of Liberation was the creation of the KGB, who
exported it to Latin America as a way of introducing Marxism into the
continent.
Ion Mihai Pacepa has been
called “the Cold War’s most important defector,” and after his defection, the
Romanian government under Nicolae Ceausescu placed two death sentences and a $2
million bounty on his head. During the more than ten years that Pacepa worked
with the CIA, he made what the agency described as “an important and unique
contribution to the United States.”
He is reported in fact to have given the CIA “the best
intelligence ever obtained on communist intelligence networks and internal
security services.
So, exactly what is “Liberation Theology”? Teaparty.org gives a brief description:
“Liberation theology has been generally understood to be a
marriage of Marxism and Christianity. What has not been understood is that it
was not the product of Christians
who pursued Communism, but of Communists who pursued
Christians,” Pacepa said in a recent article.
The description is essentially correct. Liberation Theology has dominated most “main
line ”Protestant churches for the past 50 years.
It is basically a corruption of Christianity in an effort to merge it
with Communism. It has many variations;
including Black Liberation Theology, Feminist Liberation Theology, and Gay
Liberation Theology.
It was Black Liberation Theology that dominated the preaching of
Obama’s former pastor – The Rev. Jeremiah Wright. And, it is this form of Liberation Theology
that has helped shape Barack Obama’s belief system in how he sees the
world. We have reported here about the
contribution Liberation Theology has made to the development of Obama’s
character.
This new report is shocking that, in reality, Liberation
Theology didn’t evolve on its own, but was instead created by Soviet Communists
in order to destabilize the west.
Teaparty.org goes on:
Pacepa claims that the Theology of Liberation was not merely
infiltrated by the KGB, it was actually the brainchild of Soviet intelligence
services.
“The movement was born in the KGB, and it had a KGB-invented name:
Liberation Theology,” Pacepa said.
According to the General, during those years, the KGB had a
penchant for “liberation” movements, and a Theology of Liberation fit right in.
The National Liberation Army of Columbia (FARC), created by the
KGB with help from Fidel Castro; the “National Liberation Army of Bolivia,
created by the KGB with help from “Che” Guevara; and the Palestine Liberation
Organization (PLO), created by the KGB with help from Yasser Arafat are just a
few additional “liberation” movements born at the Lubyanka — the headquarters
of the KGB.
Pacepa said that Liberation Theology was born of a 1960s
top-secret “Party-State Dezinformatsiya Program” approved by Aleksandr
Shelepin, the chairman of the KGB, and by Politburo member Aleksey Kirichenko,
who coordinated the Communist Party’s international policies.
This is almost unbelievable.
The main thrust of liberal Protestant Christianity over the past
half-century is nothing more than a Communist propaganda campaign which was
swallowed “hook, line, and sinker” by western churches.
No wonder all of these churches are rapidly losing members. No wonder they have all adopted a radical
liberal agenda without so much as a smidgen of evaluation or critique.
This goes well beyond just the “social justice” movement Obama
is always preaching (which is certainly part of Liberation Theology). It gets into feminist policy. It explains the surge in radical homosexual
advocacy; including the push for “same-sex” marriage. It defines the phony “white privilege”
philosophy now being spewed on most college campuses.
And, all of it is a lie created by Soviet Communists to help
destroy America from within!
More details about the history of implementing this societal
poison can be read at teaparty.org and Breitbart.
In addition to shaping Barack Obama, it may also be argued that
this same Liberation Theology has also shaped the thinking of Hillary Clinton
to some extent. She has suggested the
influence her Methodist pastors have had on her beliefs as well is couched in
this type of Liberation Theology
This new report explains quite a bit about what has gone wrong
in this country. If this infestation of
America’s churches and institutions of higher learning has indeed been a plan
of the atheists in the old Soviet Union, it shows us clearly how insidious
Communism is in destroying cultures.
It also is a wake-up, clarion call for America to return to its
roots of historic Christianity – the faith that built this nation in the first
place.

I am so happy to have found the above article. After reading this, one should see several connections ending in new revelations and understanding of what exactly is taking place in America's churches.
