Are you sure? Have you studied it?

Are YOU sure? Have you studied Obama to the point to conclude in any way that Obama is the Anti-Christ?

LOL

I have, and the short answer is: Dispensationalism's distinguishing claims are heretical and examples of bad hermeneutics. Dispies deny Nero as Anti-Christ even though he fit the description far better than Barry.

What I find puzzling is that you are demanding that others go "study it", but clearly you haven't even studied John's few references to an Antichrist, for in 1 John 2, we read that because there were "many antichrists" in his time "we know that we are in the last hour."

I also strongly recommend that you take a look at orthodox eschatology rather than this Tarot Card/Ouija Board Popular crap that is (thank God) mainly isolated among the biblically illiterate in the United States. There is classical Pre, Post and Amill out there to look at. Unfortunately, they aren't as exiting parlor game as the the Tim LaHaye, Hal Lindsey dreck that has captivated the nominal Christian.

Instead of this silly obsession with trying to identify "The" (definite article) "Anti-Christ", it would be far more fruitful to obsess on Jesus Christ.
