The Man of Lawlessness (Thessalonians Chapter 2)
2As to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we beg you, brothers and sisters,* 2not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as though from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord is already here. 3Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come unless the rebellion comes first and the lawless one* is revealed, the one destined for destruction.* 4He opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, declaring himself to be God.
It’s weird you mention this...i was sitting alone the other day and the phrase came into my head that “the man of lawlessness will be revealed” and I thought of Obama.
Of course, I am familiar with this passage. And BOY does it fit him!
Lawelessness: Appointing Czars, taking over banks, an auto company, no birth certificate, nationalizing healthcare, barging into classrooms, etc etc.
Declaring himself to be God...maybe he thinks of himself that way...Farrakhan called him the Messiah, that commentator called him God, he himself has claimed he will affect the climate and the sea levels.
Hmmmmmm......
