I am assuming that the “Muslim” this person is referring to is Barrack Obama’s Kenyan racial inheritance. Kenya, however, is approx. 70% Christian - various Protestant congregations and Roman Catholic. Christianity was brought to Kenya by Portuguese in the 15th century. Approx. 10% of Kenyans are Muslim. The rest of Kenya’s population identifies as Baha’i faith.
Comparitively, 78% of Americans identify themselves as Christian, 15% as “no affiliation”, about 1% Muslim.
Barrack Obama was raised by a single, caucasion, Christian woman and her parents, also caucasions and Christians from Kansas.
The beasts in Revelations, Chapter 13:1-2 And now in my vision I saw a beast rising up out of the sea. It had seven heads and ten horns, with ten crowns on its horns. And written on each head were names that blasphemed God. This beast looked like a leopard, but it had bear’s feet and a lion’s mouth! And the dragon gave him his own power and throne and great authority.
This is the beast that will be “given authority for 42 months”
A third beast is described in verse 13:11 Then I saw another beast come up out of the earth. He had two horns like those of a lamb, and he spoke with the voice of a dragon.
This beast is the one who requires all to be given the mark of the beast, 666.
The first beast is described in Rev 12:-3-4 Suddenly, I witnessed in heaven another significant event. I saw a large red dragon with seven heads and ten horns, with seven crowns on his heads. His tail dragged down one-third of the stars, whcih he threw to earth. He stook before the woman as she was about to give birth to her child, ready to devour the baby as soon as it was born.
No where in my Bibles’s version of Revelation does it say any of the beasts or the false prophet will be Muslim. I have not seen horns, leopard spots, or dragon scales on Obama in any of his televised appearances. Nor have I seen any marks on his hands or forehead.
Interestingly, my Bible’s footnotes reveal that early Christians initially identified the beast with Rome. My Bible’s study notes also say that many individual powers throughout history have been identified as the anti-Christ - Names like Hitler, Moussoulini, Saddam Hussein, Fidel Castro come to mind. I wonder if people thought Bill Clinton or JFK were also beasts?
I know folks who theorize that George W. Bush is the Anti-Christ and false prophet, deceiving multitudes into false war.
Rev 11:13-14 He did astounding miracles, such as making fire flash down to earth from heaven while everyone was watching. And with all the miracles he was allowed to perform on behalf of the first beast, he deceived all the people who belong to this world…
I remember watching our country’s invasion of Iraq, complete with rockets soaring from the sky down to take out “evildoers” on earth. Every single rational for the invasion has been discredited. Talk about a false prophet!!
Barack Obama did not just come out of nowhere. He has been serving our nation, working alongside folks that needed help, learning our nation’s laws and history so he could make educated choices, for decades.
Jesus was one of the first community organizers. I consider Obama a Godsend, not the antichrist. I pray every day for our country, that we may choose leaders who truely follow in the footsteps of Jesus.
