Recently I received an email that read;
“…
According to The Book of Revelations:
The Anti-Christ will be a man, in his 40’s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal….the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, he will destroy everything.
And Now:
For the award winning Act of Stupidity Of all times the People of America want to elect, to the most Powerful position on the face of the Planet — The Presidency of the United states of America.. A Male of Muslim descent who is the most extremely liberal Senator in Congress (in other words an extremist) and in his 40’s.
Have the American People completely lost their Minds, or just their Power of Reason???
I’m sorry but I refuse to take a chance on the ‘unknown’ candidate Obama…
…”
The truth is that the Anti-Christ will not come to power until fulfillment of I Thessalonians 4:16, which obviously has not happened as I am posting this blog. While I certainly do not agree with him (Obama) on just about anything I don’t think it is fair to label him the “Anti-Christ,” I AM ok with labeling him as Liberal Extremist who is friendly to terrorist domestic and abroad. I am not saying Obama is or isn’t (the Anti-Christ could be living now), I am just saying that it does not fit God’s time table thus far…
Furthermore, I don’t know where in Revelation it actually uses the term “Anti-Christ” let alone uses the comparisons this email has made. Maybe the reason I don’t know where it is at is because it does not exist in Revelation or anywhere in the Bible for that matter.
And if you disagree, I am ok with that even though I am a bitter American clinging to my guns and faith with antipathy towards those who are different than me.
