I am not a theologian, nor do I pretend to be anything but a simple man. Jesus however, plainly warned us that many would come along and say that they were Christ and what would occur because of that. Here is an example from the Bible, located in Matthew chapter 24:
"4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake."
I am simply raising a question that I can give no answer. In a day when it has become increasingly more popular and acceptable to bash and to openly hate Christians: Is America facing a time of God’s judgment?
If he’s not the Antichrist, he sure plays one on TV.
“Is America facing a time of God’s judgment?”
Yep!
He’s not the Antichrist, but he did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
I agree.
2 Thessalonians is quite an interesting read right now....that’s for sure.
I would say he is not THE anti-Christ but AN anti-Christ.
Ovomit is not the anti Christ but I do believe he is paving the way for the anti Christ....
Obama may or may not be the AntiChrist.
But time will tell, as always.
There will be no Christmas in Washington AC this year because three wise men could not be found. There are plenty donkeys though.
exactly
I agree, BUT: The Illinois pick 3 the day after his election came up 666. His Chicago zip code was 60606. He was born 8,4, 1961, the 216th day of the year,(6x6x6 equals 216). He was born in Hawaii, latitude 21.6. Revolations 13:4 speaks of the beast, the 216th verse of the apocalypse. Inaugurated on 1,20, 2009, and multiplying 1x2x2x9, you get 36. Add all the numbers of 36, l,2,3,etc. you get 216. Antichrist? No. But man he sure has a lot in common with him.
Christians HAVE been thinking about it, sometimes endlessly. I'm irritated that first, you seem to think no one else has had this thought, and second that you posted a whole thread with so little to add to the conversation.
I wrote this guy off as a loser years ago. He is not a Christian, and that is not judgmental for me to say that.
For those that still need convincing? Firstly he supports abortion, for me that`s all I need, it` my own little litmus test. I mean anybody that votes Democrat, is voting for abortion, gay marriage, taking crosses down from veterans cemetery's etc...the list is long. So Christian Democrat is a oxymoron right from the start! Jimmy Carter is also a NON Christian.
We do not know who the Anti Christ is. Christians will be caught up in the air with Christ (the Rapture) Anti Christ will not be revealed until after the rapture.
Not trying to sound like a Theologian, but according to my reading of the scriptures along with a great booklet put out by RBC Ministries The Daily Bread people. According to this, Christians will already have been raised up with Christ and been before the Judgment seat of Christ. Then will the Anti Christ be revealed.
He could be here now, if the Lord is returning soon, but we do not know who he is and will not
Christ returns in the air,Rapture or whatever you want to call it (Christians are with Christ in the air)
Then the rise of Anti Christ
Followed by unparalleled trouble
Return to the earth
1000 year reign
Final judgment (only for those that rejected Christ through time)
New World
Play with numbers like that long enough and you can make anyone out to be the AC. I seriously doubt that the “666” mentioned in the Bible is in reference to any of those things.
“Play with numbers”
Lighten up. It’s a rainy day and the numbers are what they are. Just having a little fun, thank you!!
