Mark 13, Disciples ask Jesus:

4 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?

Jesus answers:

5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you:

6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

***7 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. ***

8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.

9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.

10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations.

11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.

12 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.

13 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

***14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:*** I BELIEVE WE WILL KNOW WHO THE ANTI-CHRIST IS AT THIS POINT FOR SURE. THE ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION IS BELIEVED TO BE THE ANTI-CHRIST ENTERING THE TEMPLE AND DEFAMING IT IN SOME FASHION LIKE THE ROMANS DID BY SACRIFICING A PIG ON THE ALTER. UNTIL WE SEE A TEMPLE BUILT IN JERUSALEM, I DON’T BELIEVE WE ARE ANYWHERE NEAR A REVELATION OF WHO THE AC IS.

15 And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house:

16 And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment.

17 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

18 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.

19 For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.

20 And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect’s sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.

21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:

22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.

23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.

24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,

25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.

26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

27 And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.

As I said above, I personally don’t believe we are near an Anti-Christ revelation; but, I definitely do see the preparing for the Anti-Christ.

What I mean by this is that worldwide, people are virtually worshipping Obama. People that don’t know him. Heck, he is our President elect and we have more questions than answers about the guy, where he’s from, what he stands for exactly, etc. AND THE WORLD IS PUTING ITS HOPE IN THIS MAN!!!

Does this not strike anyone else as strange? Or, perhaps telling of the time we live in, where the world will turn to a man for salvation instead of God?

I can definitely see that the world IS ready for the Anti-Christ. I think Obama is possibly a form of John the Baptist, preparing the way for the Anti-Christ. Under Obama’s leadership, the world will reach a point of such dispair, that a man—the Anti-Christ, whoever he may be—seemingly with all the answers will step up and “heal” the world of its woes. Barack Obama will be vindicated by simply blaming all of his shortcoming/failures on the previous administration; but I’m sure he will fully support the AC (in this hypothetical, at least).
