And By Peace He Shall Destroy Many Daniel 9:27
For the uninitiated, the Biblical Antichrist will be an individual spawned by Satan, who is the antithesis of Christ the Messiah, who came to establish an earthly kingdom which will not be fully realized until Jesus returns to earth. Even as His kingdom exists today in what is known as The Church (called-out ones), it will not be fully manifested until Christ's Return.
According to the Bible, the Apostle Paul describes the "Man Of Sin" - Jesus counterpart - in 2 Thessalonians, as someone who shall be revealed, when a great falling away occurs in the Church. I dare say that in 2000 years of church history, we have never seen churches so plagued with sodomy, pedophilia, adultery, and heresy than today. Thessalonians tells us that this Antichrist will be accompanied with lying signs and wonders. Obama is not there, yet, unless you consider his mesmerizing over 50 million Democrats, academia, and the State Controlled Media. Also in 2 Thessalonians, "He (the Antichrist) opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remind you of anyone?
The Prophet Daniel mentions this Antichrist figure several times from the 7th through 12th chapter -and elsewhere - in his Book of Daniel. This entity will: "Speak against the Most High - Chapter 7; Set himself up to be as great as the Prince of the host, and he will become very strong, but not by his own power. He will cause astounding devastation and will succeed in whatever he does. He will destroy the mighty men and the holy people. He will cause deceit to prosper, and he will consider himself superior. When they feel at peace, he will destroy many and take his stand against the Prince of princes. - Chapter 8.
Daniel also predicts in Chapter 9, And on a wing of the temple [Jerusalem]he will set up an abomination that causes desolation. In Chapter 11 we see this, He will exalt and magnify himself above every god and will say unheard-of things against the God of gods. He will be successful until the time of wrath is completed. And He will also invade the Beautiful Land - Jerusalem.
Antiochos Epiphanies as mentioned by Josephus, and the Maccabees, as referenced by Jesus and Daniel exemplify the traits of an Antichrist as someone who totally dishonors the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Jesus through pagan, or what we would call popular, secular philosophies, today. One may see this in liberal Jewish temples, as well as, even more inexcusably, in the modern Christian mainline denominational churches.
The original Antiochus profaned the Jewish temple with idols and had naked Olympians prancing around the Holy Place. Christianity has no less defiled its profession with unimaginable desecrations. Jeremiah Wright and gay Episcopalian Bishop Gene Robinson are only two of many examples. Liberal Jewish temples are home to GLBT types.
Jesus refers to the future destructions of Jerusalem, which has had many, mentioned in Daniel and the "abomination which makes desolate." He said that people would not accept Him and his Plan of Salvation, but they would accept others (antichrists). However, unless they come as the lightning as from East to West, they are not Him!
There are many nuances and interpretations of end time events as understood by well meaning Christians. I have been studying this for over 25 years,and I must say like the Apostle Paul, "I have not apprehended it all," yet.
Most Bible scholars agree that the Antichrist will be "against" and "instead of," the Real Deal, Jesus Christ. THE Antichrist (and there are many mini Mes, or lesser antichrists),the Son of Satan, will have to be charismatic, popular, everything to everybody, except to those who do not fall for his false deity. He will make peace when the world is on edge. He will promise everything to everybody, but he will especially hate Jews (not the liberal flavor), Christians, and have a hatred for Jerusalem. Sound like anybody you know living today?
To be fair, I can remember when Bible "scholars" knew for a fact that Henry Kissinger was the Antichrist because they assembled the letters of his name in Greek or Hebrew and computed them to be the number 666. Same with Boutros Boutros Ghali, former Secretary General of the United Nations. Same with Ahmadinejad, President of Iran. Countless Popes and Hitler, of course, have been contenders for THE Antichrist, as well as a multitude of Rabbis throughout history. Even Arnold Schwarzenegger.
The Bible does hint that the Antichrist will be a flamer and "Have no desire for women," Daniel Chapter 9. Even though President Obama lisps or stretches his "s" sounds in sort of a serpentine manner, I believe he still loves women - though quite a few less than Bill Clinton, so far. BTW Speech therapists refer to the lenghtening of the "s" in wordsssssss as the "snake sound."
I mean, everything looks as if it could be Go Time for THE END with the President entreating all of our enemies by consistently humiliating our own United States, at a time when all three of the major religions are looking for, what a coninkydink, a Messiah. Islam, Judaism and Christianity are looking for The One. Is Rush Limbaugh just joking, or is Obama The One?

*Lyrics Writer Disavows Any Connection Between The Anti-Christ And
The Current President Of The United States
Lord O is a more likely candidate for the Anti-John the Baptist. He is making straight the way for the Real Anti-Christ.
The Antichrist comparisons are tiring. When he starts acting like a savior in the religious sense, then I would get worried. For now though he’s simply a Marxist Fascist Dictator.
The AntiChrist will be able to fool “even the elect.” Obama fools only those who don’t think for themselves.
> The AntiChrist will be able to fool even the elect. Obama fools only those who dont think for themselves.
True? I know lots of very good, very intelligent people — some of them “conservatives” in the New Zealand sense of the word — who are utterly fooled by Obama.
(I’m not, but that’s because I hang around with my good mates on the FRee Republic!)
You are seeing Obama from an American viewpoint only (not surprisingly, because you’re American on an American forum). Wider than what we see on the FRee Republic, even internationally, there are lots and lots and lots of people who see Obama as a breath of fresh air.
Watch this space! Obama has lots of dirty tricks up his sleeve. I don’t write him off as the Antichrist at all.
Naw, he’s just another flakey mooslimb!
Deserves repeating:
“The AntiChrist will be able to fool even the elect. Obama fools only those who dont think for themselves.”
Scripture makes it clear that the Antichrist will be an evil man of great intellect. A puppet embodying Satan himself.
O’bumbler is a sock puppet for whomever has the keyboard for his teleprompter. He utterly lacks the intellect to think on his feet of clay.
The Antichrist will be much slicker than this.
No. Our current president is wrong on almost everything, but wrong and evil incarnate are two separate things. Besides, he’s too much of a dork to be the Big A.C. The real guy will be so cool and slick that everyone will love him, even most Christians.
The Anti-Christ is probably Obama on steroids in the “charm” department. I was speaking to a former lieutenant in the IDF and he was alarmed at how many millions of people are buying into this guy’s crap and how he’s going to screw Israel over. Obama is probably the last precursor to the Son of Perdition’s arrival.
My kids showed me all those viral e-mails about him being the anti-Christ and the Nostadomus stuff, but I swear, this man gives me the creeps like nobody ever in my lifetime has. He is really pure evil in my opinion. For the first time in my life I am obsessing about my families future and not in the sense of a job, or food, or housing or material things, but really worrying about what is going to become of this country.
I asking someone the other day, is this what if felt like to the Germans who did not believe in Hitler or the Cubans when Castro came to power? Between his Muslim roots and all of this pandering to them, the disrespect he is showing our long time allies, and his shunning of everything American, I am getting a very, very sick feeling.
He's way to ignorant and just plain dumb to be the Anti-Christ.
He is for sure dangerous. There are too many of us to allow him to succeed. He is playing a game. He will fumble the ball soon enough.
Anti Christ ? No , he’s just a racist, Marxist asshole.
Nah, he’s just an assclown.
