This Guy Gives Me The Creeps

Ordinarily, I keep my political opinions to myself, mainly because if you want to get someones blood to boil, talk to them about money, politics, or Jesus. The other reason is that I am not very well versed in the political arena, and I don't feel that I could back up some of my thoughts if challenged. If I can't defend it, then I don't think I should be saying it.

Here comes the exception.

I have read the Bible. I am pretty well versed in the book of Revelations, thanks to our Pastor. I know that there is no other event that was prophesied that must take place before the rise of the anti-Christ. Now, with that being said I also believe that I have the Spiritual Gift of Discerning of Spirits. I truly believe that this man is not of God. I don't think that his agenda is good. I believe that he has evil intentions. I may be wrong about him fulfilling prophecy about the anti-Christ, but everything I read about this man makes me want to drop to my knees and pray fervently for my loved one's salvation. Before it's too late. Because there will come a time that it will be too late. We are a gullible nation. We will be (and already are being) deceived.

Following is a copy of an email that I recently received about Obama. Creepy!

The frenzy surrounding Barack Obama's U.S. presidential campaign is a little foretaste of the mindless passion that will accompany the rise of the anti-Christ when he comes on the scene as a man of peace and a superman problem solver. Speaking in Omaha, Nebraska, Obama said that he and his supporters "will remake the world" (YouTube.com, Feb. 7, 2008). At Obama's appearances women scream and faint and even hardened reporters and Hollywood movie stars are agog. After his appearance in College Park, Maryland, the newspaper said: "You can see it in their flushed-face smiles and hear it in their screams. They say the phenomenon is difficult to describe, but once they experience it they tell their friends, sisters, mothers and daughters, and they come back for more if they can. He did not flinch when women screamed as he was in mid-sentence, and even broke off once to answer a females cry of 'I love you Obama!' with a reassuring: 'I love you back'" ("Women falling for Obama," News24.com, February 12, 2008). The Associated Press called him "a metaphysical force in American politics" (AP, Feb. 12). Chris Matthews said: "My, I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don't have that too often" (MSNBC, Feb. 12). Gary Hart said Obama is "the agent of transformation in an age of revolution" (Huffington Post, Feb. 13). Michael Sietzman says, "He empowers us with words and the authentic emotion behind them and people are rushing into the tent to drink that magic water" (Huffington Post, Feb. 14). Danny Westneat said "the Obamapalooza is a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle" (Seattle Times, Feb. 9). Stanley Crouch of the New York Daily News called the Obama campaign "a purification ritual" (Feb. 18). ABC Nightline correspondence David Wright said: "Politics doesn't even begin to describe it. A visit to an Obama rally is a pilgrimage" (Newsbusters.org). Christena Weatherspoon said that it was like Obama was "inside her head" and "knows what I want" (Tribune-Chronicle, Youngstown, Ohio, Feb. 19). Actor George Clooney said, "He walks into a room and you want to follow him somewhere, anywhere," and actress Halle Berry said, "I'll do whatever he says to do. I'll collect paper cups off the ground to make his pathway clear" (Lisa Lehrer, Politico, Feb. 20). When New Age billionaire Oprah Winfrey introduced Obama on December 11 in Columbia, South Carolina, she called him "an evolved leader" and said, "We're here to evolve to a higher plane." She said he is a "force for peace" who can break down everything that divides, including race and politics and religion. Obama's wife said he is a leader "who's going to touch our souls" ("Messianic Rhetoric Infuses Obama Rallies, Politico, December 11, 2007). "He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus" (Revelation 22:20).

Amen, sister! That's absolutely right. I've had so many people ask me who I will be voting for in November if Huckabee doesn't get the nomination, and I always reply that Josh and I have agreed to protest vote for Ron Paul. There is no such thing as a "lesser evil". Evil is evil.

Even though judgment will be swift and severe with Obama as President, at least it won't be a drawn out affair for those of us who are Christians. If McCain or even Hillary gets the nomination, judgment will be imminent, but it would more than likely be a slower process. Let's just get it over with.

Pastor's words of "Lets arise and build as if this is the last year we have to make a difference for Christ" always gives me chills. I liked what you said about how Obama makes you want to get on your knees and pray for your loved one's salvation. That's exactly how I feel when Pastor says that! I wouldn't be surprised if his words proved to be prophetic.
