...namely, because a whole lot of them are complete idiots.
Very charming isn't he? Raised in a Moslem world, (Indonesia) with protestant upbringing..I'm watching him. I'm always aware when Republicans and Democates, and Independants, far left, far right, think this man is the cat's meow. They never agree on anything.

I fear nothing except God. Fear is the opposite of Faith, and Faith I have. It is not only his name, "blessed", but this guy doesn't sound human to me. People can think what they want about me, I could really give a hoot. People think that the AC is coming out of the mid-east. My personal belief is that the AC is going to rise right out of the UN, and with this guys popularity, charisma, and how he is climbing the ranks in government real fast!!!, He may be in the UN next.
Barack Obama, the son of a Kenyan father and a white mother from Kansas, born in Hawaii, raised in Chicago, was a little known Illinois state senator as recently as last year.
Now he's the states Democratic US Senate canidate, He will win, because now he is unopposed. I am watching everyone very carefully, especially since this chip is on the horizon, which I believe is connected with the mark.
The antichrist is not going to come in with devil horns on his head, and make an announcement...Hello all. I am the expected antichrist!!! I can see how people are going to be fooled when the AC does show up. He is going to be a charismatic fellow, with all of the answers for the worlds woes. Why not start in the US, since I believe that is where he is going to rise out of?? "who referred to Obama as a man who can help heal the division in our nation". Only God can HEAL our nations divisions!!!

When I first heard of Barak, a few days ago, the first thing I heard is that he is a guy who came out of nowhere and now many flock to his side. When my wife and I heard this, we both thought the same thing, the anti-christ. Now I am not claiming him to be, just something that triggered that thought in both of us.
[...]
Yes, it is uncanny the way that people are flocking to him. He has an eerie magnetism. I watched his speech, and I was almost spellbound. He said ALL of the right things. Even the tv commentators said that they had never heard such a good speech at a convention before. I'm going with my gut on this one. My sister and I both feel something "spooky" about this guy, but can't quite figure out what it is. It is odd that strangers come up to him on the street. Why would they do that, unless they were drawn to him.
You are right GodSaves, we are supposed to watch, and those that do not, aren't very bright to say the least. Jesus didn't give us His word with all of the information in it for no apparent reason...Grace.
[...]
Yep. I am certainly going to keep my eyes open on the dude!!!! His magnetism with people, his charisma and charm (flatteries, as the bible states) bares keeping VERY close watch on.
They already have Barack Obama for President bumper stickers out!!!! Now when have you ever heard of someones popularity rising so fast, just from a speech at a convention? Oh, he was popular in the state of Illinois, but now national. Boggles the mind!!!!!
[...]
Oh, I can see that part of the "big story". That has nothing to do with his "drawing power" with EVERYONE, even with us "whities" so to speak. When the whites start accepting a black man over a white man, and the white man has a great political career, then that is either a miracle from God, or the part of a bigger plan. Mans bigotry will never change as long as we are on this earth!!! This white man who had a great career in politics, is SUDDENLY shamed by a scandal. I think it was part of the bigger picture, so Obama will be the shew in for the Senate. By his demeanor alone, that tells me that it is a spirit of deception that this guy is operating under.
[...]
The little horn will rise up among the 10 horns of Daniel's 4th beast, which was the Roman Empire. And even though America has forsaken it's Christian heritage and is in rapid decline, she will never become a replacement for Daniel's 4th beast. The Roman Empire is already rising, even in the midst of America's decline.
[...]
I don't think we should directly label Obama as AC, but it is very interresting. While I was watching him, the VERY FIRST thought that came to my mind was asking the Lord if I was looking at the AC. I don't have a big opinion either way, but man, that was pretty scary. Even my life is good and no where neare to over husband was transfixed. I turned off the tv, it was just too much. This in not paranoia, it's actively waiting for prophecy to be fulfilled.
[...]
This man has the ablility to "unite" people, no matter what their political position is, he brings a feeling of hope to the masses.. I'm sure that we will be hearing alot from this man in the future...every time a Nation slips into depravity, sin, and lose their moral compass... along comes a man, that makes them feel human again.. uplifted, your ok, I'm o.k., no, we're better than o.k. we're the most powerful, the most this, the most that.... he tells them that everything will be fine, just listen to me, (no repentance needed, you dont even have to go through Jesus,) there are many paths to God, but we must unite. And the masses will love this stuff.
I know they called Ronald Regan the great communicator, but this man beats all I have ever heard.
Yes, I will be watching..
Let's just say for a moment that there was a powerfull man right now waiting in the wings to bring peace to the middle East.Let's say for a moment that I believe that a man will come.He would have to have a very great persuation on American christians and the Jews in order for the next temple to be built.
Jean Marie lestinger is a Jewish priest next in line for the Papacy.From what I've read that he has wrote,he is anxious to let the Jews have their Temple,A very Powerfull charasmatic man,A very likable man.
Just a thought,Isn't it funny also that Kerry has now found out that he comes from jewish fathers,just like Madaline Allbright found out.
I don't know if it means anuthing but it's interesting.Just like that Israelie astronaunt that died over Palistine Taxas,that Teacher in the explosion before that was Jewish also.Like 1 died trying to make it to heaven and the next died coming back from heaven in Palistine.
[...]
This so called wannabe, is a VERY learned intelligent man, who is no ones fool!!! I even have to admit that he is the most charming, charismatic person that I have ever seen in politics. There is something about his demeanor, that puts an "agreeing spirit" over those that he is talking to. There is something very unsavory about it to me. Not normal to have that kind of hold on people, and no one disagrees with him.
[...]
This is just the type of person that the antichrist is.......A BIG DECEIVER!!!!!!! Do you expect the antichrist to come on the scene and be the biggest jerk imaginable, and immediately order everyone to take the mark? Half the world would tell him "where to get off"!!!! The AC has to be the kindest person in the world in the beginning, so he can draw people into his web of deceit. I already know that there are going to be tons of people who are going to fall right into his trap, just by reading the type of replies on this topic. I find THAT a tragic worldview.
[...]
If he turns out to not be the antichrist, then his message is a good thing. That shows that he really cares about what he is saying. It isn't so much what he is saying, Act6:5, it is that he is not getting ANY negative feed back at all. Not even from the Republicans. There is no "mudslinging" at all. That is unheard of. Also, the Jews never listen to anyone. He has such favor with the Jewish people, that my warning signals are going off. This would definately be the guy to send over to Israel, and try to get their problems worked out with the Palistinians. Gee, the affect he is having on everyone, if the Palistinans go "ga-ga" over him, he is definately the AC. If Kerry wins the election, and sends Obama to a peace accord with the Israelis/Palistinians, and all goes well, then look up, for our redemption draweth nigh.
[...]
Why do you say that??? The Jews are a stiff-necked people. Jesus even said so, lol. Every President down has tried to iron out the differances in the Mid-East, and basically failed. Now, the Jews in the US think that Obama is fantastic, and some would like to see him run for President. That is a milestone for the Jews, even in this nation.
[...]
He may be an antichrist, if he speaks against Christ.
But is he THE antichrist?
find out if hes jewish or not.
[...]
I just found a post on Obamas website from a Jewish girl. Barak (different spelling) means "lightening" in Hebrew. Luke 10:18 ~ And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
[...]
I find it interesting that Barak (Hebrew spelling) means lightning, and the definition of Lucifer is morning star from the Latin, and means light-bearing. Is this just a coincidence?
[...]
To be fair, the thread contains a whole lot of people who basically shout down the one or two nutjobs who think Obama is the Anti-Christ.
