How many of those killed or wounded were Republicans? How many of the perpetrators were Republicans? DemoKKKrats own Chicago and its waste, fraud, corruption and crime.

[Number of the Beast.]

Well, how very Obama, of his adopted home town.

Yesterday, I finally remembered the fun fact that somebody figured out (don’t know where).

Obama claims August 4, 1961 as his birth date.

August 4, 1961 was the 216th day of 1961.

216 = 6 * 6 * 6.

Now as I recall, Obama’s house was NOT at the Chicago 60606 zip code. It was a different one.

I’m not going to say the 216th day means anything. Just that somebody once noted it. I only ran across it recently.

(no offense intended - but for the thread)

Actually, it’s one of the heads of the political beast (imagery) that suffers the deadly wound. The political beast is the government that supports and is used by THE Beast, the Man of Sin or for shorthand, the Antichrist.

It’s been a popular theory that the Antichrist suffers a deadly wound in the head before being resurrected and astonishing the world. This error was reinforced in “The Megiddo Code” but is not actually Biblical.

I watched Irvin Baxter’s interpretation Friday night from his broadcast. This is but one of many things he gets wrong (there’s a few things he’s not too bad on). But he’s all messed up on events of the Tribulation.
