“He that hath ears
to hear, let him hear.” Matthew 11:15
As I intend to be very candid here, this article will be offensive to a variety of people with a variety of political and spiritual perspectives. I wish I could make the points that follow without doing injury to peoples’ outlooks, but that is not possible.

For that reason many of
you may stop reading once I have hit upon your particular sore spot—I lament my
inability to get this out innocuously, I am a profoundly limited person.
However I do take solace in the knowledge that not even the limitless God of
the Holy Bible could deliver the gospel message without offending multitudes.
Shall a trumpet be
blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city,
and the LORD hath not done it? Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth
his secret unto his servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not
fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy? Amos 3:6-8
God says over and over and over again, that He does not take action against a people without first warning them. God always speaks, but we don’t always hear Him. We don’t want to.

November 5th 2008, the
day the country celebrated the election of Barack Obama, the 44th President of
the United States. His home state, Illinois, the state he represented in the
Senate, had an unusual occurrence. The Lottery evening pick 3 came out 666. Check it out for yourself, just scroll down to
11/05/08.
The four-digit number that
night was 7779. Everyone not living under a rock knows the number 666
represents the Antichrist. But what could be the significance of 7779? Well in
the Holy Bible, the number 7 represents completion, God created the earth in 7
days…
The word for seven in
Hebrew is shevah from the root savah, meaning full or satisfied God rested on
the seventh day, the Sabbath from the same root. The work was completed nothing
to add. The number 9 is representative of Judgment, specifically God’s
judgment.
Was 7779 God’s signal that the American experiment was officially over, we failed and are now experiencing His judgment? Was the 666 meant to tell us that the day of the Antichrist is at hand? I am not saying President Obama is the Antichrist—I don’t know! I can’t dismiss that possibility out of hand, I have seen some interesting arguments made. God is saying something!

Whatever the case, it is
a strange happenstance not easily dismissed as mere happenstance. Not in light of God assuring His people He
always gives warning. I do know the President’s agenda and philosophy are
certainly contrary to the character of the God revealed in the Holy Bible. And
that President Obama’s agenda seems to line up with the agenda of one who has
the spirit of antichrist as revealed in Scripture. The Holy Bible makes it
plain there will be a singular leader overseeing a single world government at
the time of the return of Christ.
And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. If any man have an ear, let him hear. Revelation 13:7-8
We see the world will also adopt a singular world religion that will be forced, by the likewise yet to be revealed False Prophet, to worship the beast.
And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. Revelation 13:11,12

The False prophet will
be compared to the lamb, (Jesus Christ) he will look good, but he will speak
and secretly do the works of the devil.
President Obama is
nothing if not ecumenical, fanatically so. It is hard to reconcile having a
true faith in Christ Jesus if you confess from your mouth that you believe that
there are many paths to the same God. Such statements make Christ a liar when
he declares: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto
the Father, but by me.” John 14:6
The President is not
alone—I have seen many on the right, who confess a belief in Christ throw their
tacit support behind sentiments of ecumenism across religions. This was
illustrated vividly by those who came to the defense of Pope Francis when he
came under scrutiny for washing the feet of two woman including one who is
Islamic.
Foot washing is a
wonderful thing with deep spiritual significance. It is a powerful form of
giving that transforms those who participate in the practice when they
understand it’s spiritual meaning. But I confess to being disturbed by the
Roman church’s penitent for turning spiritual matters into theater. The pope
looked really “lamb” like, but I can’t help but recall the words of the Lord:
Matthew 6:
1 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
1 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven.
2 Therefore when
thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do
in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I
say unto you, They have their reward.
3 But when thou
doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
4 That thine alms
may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward
thee openly.
5 ¶And when thou
prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray
standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be
seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6 But thou, when
thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to
thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall
reward thee openly.
I have been accused of
being pharisaical for pointing out such verses and applying them in the context
of the Pope’s show—the irony lies in the fact that these are the words of
Christ. Can you be pharisaical in following Christ’s words?
The spiritual message
conveyed in Matthew 6 is not just applied to giving money, but in all spiritual
service. It’s not meant to be a photo op. The Pope was nevertheless rewarded
with much glory from men. Especially from the ecumenical quarter that have no
problem disassociating the surface actions of Christ from their spiritual
purpose and His mission to save the unsaved—a mission a great deal more
important than feeding people or washing their feet. I hope for the Popes sake
he at least whispered John 3:16 into that young Islamic ladies ear. Otherwise all she got was clean
feet from a nice old guy in a cassock.
In the 17th chapter of the Revelation of St. John, we are introduced to the great harlot, the whore of mystery Babylon—she represents the false church.
1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:

1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
Sits upon many waters, this church is wide spread across the world
2 With whom the
kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth
have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
The church has a history
of being intertwined with the political world, not in the sense that one should
allow one’s faith to inform one's politics, but rather as one who gains from
manipulating leaders and kings.
3 So he carried me
away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet
coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
The seven heads
represent the seven hills Rome is built upon and the ten horns the kings that
returned power to the woman after initially winning freedom from her after
Romes collapse. These kings now serve at the pleasure of the Roman church.
4 And the woman
was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious
stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and
filthiness of her fornication:
The church is concerned with opulence, and dressed in purple and scarlet which has always drawn the allusion to the Bishops and Cardinals, the princes of the church of Rome. Offering the cup of the sacrament to the world, while filling the cup with hidden sins.

5 And upon her
forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots
And Abominations Of The Earth.
Liberalism in the modern spiritual sense is not just a matter of left, right, Democrat, Republican anymore. It is really more of a secular thing these days. If you accept the things of the world without protest without regard to the tenets of God you are liberal.
President Bush was as liberal as President Obama when it comes to the agenda of the antichrists in the world. Any President who stands by while the American people’s rights are being compromised is complicit in the globalist philosophy. The gun confiscations that took place in the aftermath of Katrina received no public rebuke from the Republicans in office. We probably wouldn’t even know about them if not for the NRA.
America’s guns are a major stumbling block for the globalist agenda. Katrina was a dry run for applying the Hegelian dialectic to achieve the goal of disarming America so we will go softly into the globalist plan for the world. President Obama is certainly keen to line America up with the United Nation’s goals regarding arms. It seems you would have to be blind or willingly ignorant to ignore the push towards a world government as described in the Holy Bible.
For those of us inclined
to prepare for the worst so we can protect our families, good for you. Keep your
powder dry, praise the Lord and pass the ammunition. But far more important
than your ability to deal with the adversity you see coming, to repel the gun
grabbers on the night they start stacking troop trucks on your block, is your
spiritual position in Christ when the things He foretold come to pass.
While you gather
whatever it is you are gathering, don’t forget to share your faith with as many
as will listen to you. Because the days are short and when He comes, He is not
looking at whether you are registered to vote one way or the other. If you do
not have faith in Christ, all your preparations will bring you short succor.
In spite of the warm and fuzzy image of Christ so many want to embrace, the Christ of their own imaginings that conforms to their politically correct image of a savior. The Christ that wants to join everyone in a bear hug of inter-faith unity does not exist. That is the goal of the world not Jesus Christ. The actual Christ, the Son of God, is not ecumenical. I believe in the Christ who said:
“Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword. For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law. And a man's foes shall be they of his own household.” Matthew 10:32-36
When He speaks, we need to incline our ears and accept Him at His word, because He says He is going to accept whatever we confess about Him in ours and He is coming.
