Atlas Shrugs: "Something of Historic Proportion is Happening"

I am a student of history. Professionally. I have written 15 books in six languages, and have studied it all my life. I think there is something monumentally large afoot, and I do not believe it is just a banking crisis, or a mortgage crisis, or a credit crisis. Yes, these exist but they are merely single facets on a very large gemstone that is only now coming into a sharper focus. Something of historic proportions is happening. [mod edit: copyright]







I'm a Born-Again Christian who is also scoffed and laughed at when I address the nature of this politician in the context of Bible phrophesies. Now I'm not saying that Obama is definitely the Anti-Christ, but I have seen things that have given me pause. According to my understanding of the scriptures, we are the terminal generation on the Earth that exists now and the time of the end is very close. Given the starting point of the end-time being 1948 with the rebirth of the State of Israel that was prophesied ( Mathematical Bible Prophecy ), a person born that year would be 61 or 62 now, so the timing would be correct for his emergence since 70 years is a long time for a generation by Bible standards. During the campaign I noticed some things that made me take special notice of this candidate. The fascination and awe that he inspired in the crowds he spoke to was something that I saw in films of Nazi Germany in the thirties. Also I took note that some were referring to him as "Messiah" and "The One" tongue in cheek and others were doing so with a little more sincerity. The world trip during the campaign and the reception he received was unprecedented. Now I hear talk of a world currency and world economy. None of these things by themselves identify Obama as the Anti-Christ with certainty, but they keep stacking up.

"Thus no one was allowed to buy or sell things unless he bore the mark of the beast – that is, his name or his number. This calls for wisdom: Let the one who has insight calculate the beast’s number, for it is man’s number, and his number is 666." Revelation 13:17-18

NETBible: Revelation 13

Then I saw a posts on this forum that pointed out that on the day of Obama's victory the IL three digit was 666. Curious, at least. So I checked it out for myself, and sure enough the winning three digit was indeed 666. Out of curiosity, I checked out the AZ three digit too. On the day following Obama's 666 number, the AZ three digit was 777 (a number that is associated with God). So what is the significance? First, I could be wrong, but it is hard for me to see these numbers as anything except a warning about this person, a warning that he is not just another politician. Perhaps he is just another "type" of anti-christ like Hitler was. Perhaps he is actually the Anti-Christ. The stage is certainly set for his appearance with Iran ready to go hot at any time and fully committed to the destruction of Israel.

"Learn this parable from the fig tree: Whenever its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near." Matthew 24:32

NETBible: Matthew 24

Talk of Obama's goon squads certainly fit an end-time scenario in which the mass persecution of Christians would take place with a major worldwide cataclysmic event that seems to be nuclear war following immediately afterward.

“Immediately after the suffering of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of heaven will be shaken." Matthew 24:29

NETBible: Matthew 24

Anyways, Jesus told us to keep watching for his return and that's what I'm doing. It would appear that we are getting very, very close to the end, and I would agree with you that something is definitely happening.

This is nothing less than insane. And is precisely why the Bush/Cheney gang of "Christian" wingnuts were voted out of office.

or...the human race will self destruct (never to be seen again on any plane) as it is on the fast track to do via greed, toxicicty of the planet and lack of humanity and the meek that shall inherit the earth will be the wildlife.

Exactly. Lets hope they stay out. I really really hope America learned its lesson.

Thankfully, it seems they did. Sarah Palin is nowhere near the White House.

The Bible is very clear in stating that people, not even born-again people,
will be able to recognize the antiChrist. Period. This kind of inane e-mail
message is, like the Hitler/Obama thread, a simple attempt to frighten simple people. After all, we all remember that Gorbachev, with his port-wine birthmark, is the real antiChrist. Your time is better spent in doing good works than in trying to second-guess God.

The OP didn't write this. A Professor of History named Tim Wood supposedly did.
I can't verify, but that's the info I received.

You never know what is in the works. Non-citizens are now accepted into the Army with the promise of a fast path to citizenship.

Would you follow orders if you were promised immediate citizenship after your military commitment was up ?

BBC NEWS | Americas | US army 'wants more immigrants'

snippet:
"The Times said the scheme could cut the time a temporary resident had to wait for a green card from up to 10 years to as little as six months.
The programme will be limited to 1,000 enlistees in its first year, but if successful could be spread to other services and expanded. It could eventually provide the army with one in six of its recruits, the Times said."
