When I read this passage in Matthew 7, I consider many so-called "Christians":
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23* And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Jesus says "I NEVER knew you"--not that he "used to know", but "never." And the preceding verses remind be precisely of Obama:

15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16* Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17* Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18* A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19* Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20* Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

During this presidential election Obama's opposition wants to focus on his "fruits", yet he wants to shift the focus from what he's done (or has not done) and focus on what he wants to do (what he says)--more deceptive promises. Jesus says that a CORRUPT TREE cannot bring forth GOOD FRUIT.

What characterizes the progressive "Christian" is what he thinks he knows. He has replaced the gospel with a social gospel, an incomplete gospel. There is only one gospel (Galatians 1). All the others are false and cannot save.

Mohammed and Obama are antiChrist figures. They both acknowledge Jesus Christ yet they try to lead the flock astray with denials of His divinity.
