Antichrist 101

"Little children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that the Antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come, by which we know that it is the last hour." - 1 John 2:18

The Apostle John is warning believers of his day and of ours that the spirit of antichrist is a reality and we had better be on the watch for it. He warned that they would identify themselves as true believers but, that in reality "they went out from us". When Jesus taught about the end of the age in Matthew 24, His main warning was "be not deceived". That is because it is so easy to "talk the talk but, not walk the walk"! In fact the mainline media of today focuses almost 100% on the "talk" of politicians and not their "walk".


A point in case is the Obama administration stand that killing babies (otherwise known as abortion) is more important than religious freedom. He demanded that Catholics and others of the Christian faith pay for insurance that allows all kinds of procedures that the Bible forbids. While this action is finally causing some Christians to actually take a stand, they may have lost the battle already. 

While everyone's attention is focused on this attack, the Obama administration has quietly ordered military Chaplains to obey Obama's edict, warning them not to read the Catholic Church's denomination wide letter in which they informed parishioners that the Church “cannot and will not comply with this unjust law.” The administration issued the following command even to Catholic Chaplains -

“The secretary of the Army said you have to line out some of the language, or else we’re going to charge the chaplains with sedition and treason for opposing the Obama administration."

Can you believe this? They are actually threatening chaplains with court-martial if they dare to preach against sin in their own church. President Obama may claim to be a Christian but his actions speak louder than his talk.

The Apostle Paul further describes the actions of an antichrist: 

"who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped," - 1 Thessalonians 2:4

President Obama has shown his true colors in this and in many other ways as well: 1) $100,000's given to rebuild mosques in Islamic countries, 2) $millions of dollars in recent aid to the Islamic Brotherhood of Egypt, 3) cancelling the National Day of Prayer (a Christian day of prayer) while honoring and participating in Ramadan ( a Muslim month of fasting and prayer), to show just a few.

President Obama has clearly declared himself but, the question is "Will Christians declare themselves" in the upcoming elections? The answer is "Yes!", whatever choice they make in the upcoming elections will show their declaration loud and clear, one way or the other.
