The Obama Antichrist Myth
Obama or Nebuchadnezzar
The Obama Antichrist Myth continues to baffle the uninformed. There are so many rumors and untruths floating around cyberspace on the end times. Not the least is the Obama Antichrist myth. How and why people get sucked into these sink holes of false prophecy and understanding is directly related to the futurist views.
Those who peer down the crystal ball of the future and listen to too many TV evangelists talk about the doom and gloom of the end fall prey to such doctrines as the obama antichrist myth. This question ought never be raised by people who have been to Sunday school at least twice in their life.
Obama Antichrist Youtube Video
The obama antichrist myth is getting a little steam from a video on you tube. The author suggests that Jesus referred to the Antichrist in Luke 10:18 and Isaiah 14:12. He suggests that the evidence from the Aramaic scriptures and the ancient Hebrew leads one to the name Barack Obama in those passages. This is shameful. First, Isaiah 14:12, speaks of the king of Babylon.
In fact, he was the king who burned the temple to the ground, destroying Jerusalem in the sixth century B.C. He wanted to be like God, as Isa. 14:14 expresses an aspiration. He boasted that his success and wealth came through his own power until God taught him a lesson in humility.
The Obama Antichrist Myth Word Study
While the word for high places in Hebrew is bamah, it does not mean Barack Obama. It has nothing to do with the obama antichrist myth. Nor is this term a reference to battles between Satan and his angels who get cast out of heaven. Exploiting the obama antichrist myth by wresting the text betrays a flaw in the approach to scripture.
When Christ quotes Luke 10:18, he is looking forward. It is a future prophecy but not in His far distant future. He described an event which would shortly occur. Paul wrote that God would shortly crush Satan under the feet of the Roman church , i.e. within the life time of the first century Christians, Rom. 16:20). Where is the proof that Barack Obama is the antichrist?
Obama Myth and the Internet
The internet continues to show a steady interest in the obama myth. Why is the idea that Barack Obama is the antichrist any more significant than Martin Luther, Mussolini, or Hitler? The crowd was wrong then and it is wrong now. Time proved that all who jumped on those band wagons were liars. Scripturally the obama antichrist myth cannot be sustained.
Spreading the Obama Antichrist Myth
A casual search of the internet demonstrates how trivially some handle the scriptures. The obama antichrist myth would never have gotten started had 1 John 2:18-19 been read and understood. The antichrist is one who denies Jesus had come in the flesh. There were in fact many antichrist’s already in the world. They infiltrated the church for a while then left it. But the time was clearly the first century and said to be the last hour. Unless Barack Obama is almost 2000 years old, he cannot fulfill the whims of those who perpetuate the Obama antichrist myth.

Thanks. Anti-Christ was an eschatological evil that occurred at the end of the age (Israel's Eschaton), and has nothing to do with the present or the future. The gates of hell did not prevail against the church, and the faithful overcame this evil.
Read the Book of Revelation and also the Gospels, there is more yet to come, doing away with biblical prophecy does away with most of the bible, there is a Christ and an Antichrist, there is also good and evil, male and female, life and death, and even the 1's and 0's that appropriately allow you to read the text i'm typing in no other way, there is also blessing and curses and you could go on and on, from a physics perspective, light has dual properties depending upon how it is observed, also electromagnetism and just about any mechanism in the 21st century, lastly, Psalm 19:1-4, where the Psalmist says: “The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech or language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.”
The New Testament also speaks of this in a similar fashion in Romans 1:20, where it is said: “For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities – his eternal power and divine nature – have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.” and don't forget in Genesis the Tree of Life and the knowledge of good and evil
You must read these books in the context in which they were written and apply the time statements to the original audience not to us. They were at hand in the first century. They cannot be at end then and now. So, until you reconcile the time statements you will have a difficult time understanding prophecy. Read Luke 21:20-22, 32.
MR. Bell, We have received your e-mails for a year or more, but all of a sudden we have not received a one. We enjoy your comments very much and are preterists ourselves. Do we need to do something new or have you discontinued that service? David and Barbara
I've only discontinued one service and I moved all subscribers to the new list. I will check to see if you're on that list. If not, I'll send you a way to subscribe. Thanks for your kind comments and I very happy to know that you are getting value from the studies.
Obama can’t be the Antichrist because he doesn’t fulfill the Old Testament prophesies: He is not a descendant of David, he wasn’t born in Bethlehem, he is not a Nazarene.
The Antichrist will have to fool the Jews into believing he is their Messiah. Jews aren’t going to believe that Obama is their Messiah.

There are many reasons President Obama is not and cannot be the antichrist of the Bible. First and foremost the antichrist's arrival is not a future or present event but one that is past and fulfilled. in the first century.
