Herod was the 'antichrist' or antipater. The father of the Herodian dynasty was Antipater. His name in Greek literally means 'like the father.' The Greek word 'anti' does not have the same meaning as modern English, resulting in many spurious teachings that have caused confusion in the body of Christ. Herod The Great was an Edomite (from Esau, the hated one) and was forbidden by law to be King of the Jews.
However, he was promoted to that position and proclaimed deity. He was a most evil tryant. (recommended reading: History of the Jewish People - The Second Temple Era)

concerning the temple: Haggai:15-19 "Give careful thought to this from this day on---...from this day on, from this 24th day of December, give careful thought to the day when the foundation of the Lord's temple was laid....Give careful thought......
1. The house of G d is not made of cedar - man did that. II Sam 7: 5-7
2. The house of G d would come from David's own body. II Sam 7: 11-12
3. Jesus was and is the house of G d. II SAm 7:13; John 2:19-21; Heb 9:11
4. you are G d's temple: Acts 17: 24; 1 Co 3:16; 6:19; 2 Co 6:16

(December 24, Jewish calender; December 25 modern calender, Jesus of Nazareth, the cornerstone of the temple of G d was born).

The Anti-Christ will leave our government on January 20. I used to think it was George Bush, but I now think it is Dick Cheney.

All good Christians-- vote for Antichrist Obama!

(Sometimes this stuff is just way too easy)


The time has already been determined. Just like the date for the rebirth of Israel in 1948.

Mathematical Bible Prophecy

I found a good site for help with Daniel's 70 weeks. I can't fully endorse it since I haven't read it all, but what I have read seems logical and consistent with the balance of scripture.

THE 70 WEEKS OF DANIEL

Check this one out too. Again the same diclaimer since I haven't studied the entire site. Compare it to scripture and make up your own mind.

Well when you constantly put down people of other faiths, then expect the same thing to happen to you. It is really not that hard.

Like this for example:
From: Dr. John Tisdale

Dear Friends,

As I was listening to a news program last night, I watched in horror as Barack Obama made the statement with pride...

"We are no longer a Christian nation; we are now a nation of Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, . . ." As with so many other statements I've heard him (and his wife) make, I never thought I'd see

the day that I'd hear something like that from a Presidential candidate in this nation. To think our Forefathers fought and died for the right for our nation to be a Christian nation---and to have this man say withpride that we are no longer that. How far this nation has come from what our Founding Fathers intended it to be.

I hope that each of you will do what I'm doing now---send your concerns, written simply and sincerely, to the Christians on your email list. With GOD's help, and He is still in control of this nation and all else, we can show this man and the world in November that we are, indeed, still a Christian nation!
]Please pray for our nation!

________________
LMAO! This is FUNNIEST **** I have EVER read. WaHHHH!!! Obama wanted to include EVERYONES faiths....not just Christianity. WAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!

So what if he said "
we are now a nation of Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists." Has it ever occured to you that he is right? There are Jewish, Muslim, Hindus, Non believers, Buddhists people and more here.

The right for this to be a Christian Nation? God, thanks for another laugh tonight.

This is exactly why the GOP lost and will continue to lose. Barack Obama 2012!

I would like all the people that believe in the prophecy of the end of the world to just give me all their money before it happens. If I am right I become very rich. If I am wrong I become very rich and go to Hell. Most likely neither will happen and things will just keep on with keeping on.

According to Biblical prophesy, the anti-Christ will come from the area of the world that was once the Roman Empire. Namely, Europe.

So no, Obama is not it. Nor is anyone from this part of the world. Though the anti-Christ will have an appealing personality (at least at first) and be in a position of power. The closest thing so far was Hitler, but the stars were not aligned so to say; there are still several events which must take place first, such as the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem.

I just started following these forums and read through about two pages of this thread and already have a headache. This topic is just retarded. People thinking first off that Obama is the anti-christ is just insane. The world will end because a person of another religion is president OH NO.

Christians are the biggest hypocrites in the world. Here's two model Christian preachers who go around campus to campus "preaching"



Have fun.

The Forbidden Fruit

Client: Hey, just one final question before I send the deposit. Do you use a PC or a MAC?
Me: I use a MAC.
Client: That is a problem. Do you have access to a PC? I am not a supporter of Apple products.
Me: No, I don’t have access to a PC, but this will have little to no effect on the work itself.
Client: I am a Christian and Apple products are sinful, I do not want our website to be created by a product made by this corrupt group. You need only look at their logo, an apple with a bite taken from it. Do you not know the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden? If I allowed you to create my website on a MAC I would be just like Adam, taking a bite of the forbidden fruit.
[Silence]
“Take my advise, destroy your mac and repent for when judgement day comes. It shall be you who is cast to hell for your sins.”
Me: [Block Contact]
