It should come as no surprise to those of us who read classic literature that those who make pacts with the devil eventually meet with desolation. Daniel Webster understood this, as do many preachers who stand in their pulpits and proclaim that you cannot enjoy the avails of sin for long; the pleasures, though real, are short-lived, and judgment always follows.
It seems obvious to those who watched the rise of the impertinent sham in the White House that something almost “magical” had accompanied his ascendancy, something other than his silver tongue and the ever-present teleprompter. How could an unknown with no track record for accomplishing anything of significance ascend to the Mt. Everest of power in our known universe?
These are questions that will likely persist for some years; until then, it is obvious to all but his most devoted followers that something has changed dramatically in the sphere of President Barack Obama since 2008. As though an angel had pulled the plug, we have seen an increasingly bumbling, fumbling shlub on the campaign trail. From time to time, Obama has waxed almost incoherent, a departure from his tightly-scripted, messianic oratory of 2008, and his cool, collected, “don’t you wish you were me?” presence.
In a less corrupted environment, this would bring Obama’s detractors almost pure joy. Instead, we have the feeling in the pit of our stomachs that ultimately, inevitably, this is a fraud sustained by those whose cravings for power and full pockets have led to their total submission to the myth that sits in the Oval Office. Though the myth is losing its lustre as the wheels of state begin to fall off, Muslims in the Middle East are showing their solidarity with Obama, just as he predicted.
Why have some religious leaders in the East

I don't see this happening, unless of course there are no Christians to object. My faith is in Jesus the Christ, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit!
Psalm 27, A Psalm of Fearless Trust in God. New American Standard Bible (NASB)
A Psalm of David.
1 The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the [a]defense of my life; Whom shall I dread?
2 When evildoers came upon me to devour my flesh, My adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though a host encamp against me, My heart will not fear; Though war arise against me, In spite of this I [b]shall be confident.
4 One thing I have asked from the Lord, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, To behold the [c]beauty of the Lord And to [d]meditate in His temple.
5 For in the day of trouble He will conceal me in His [e]tabernacle; In the secret place of His tent He will hide me; He will lift me up on a rock.
6 And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me, And I will offer in His tent sacrifices [f]with shouts of joy; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.
7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice, And be gracious to me and answer me.
8 When You said, “Seek My face,” my heart said to You, “Your face, O Lord, I shall seek.”
9 Do not hide Your face from me, Do not turn Your servant away in anger; You have been my help; Do not abandon me nor forsake me, O God of my salvation!
10 [g]For my father and my mother have forsaken me, But the Lord will take me up.
11 Teach me Your way, O Lord, And lead me in a level path Because of [h]my foes.
12 Do not deliver me over to the [i]desire of my adversaries, For false witnesses have risen against me, And such as breathe out violence.
13 [j]I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.
14 Wait for the Lord; Be strong and let your heart take courage; Yes, wait for the Lord.

Watch & pray! Good night all. It's been a long day. Freep on!
He is also a bit of a hint and warning about the potential nature and consequences of, “ a powerful delusion”
Those Canadians see it as it is. Too bad Americans in general don’t.
Responding to the title; Mahdi or anti-christ....
Bath-House Barry—too stupid to be anti-christ, but, I could see him crawling out of a slimy well; he’s just not that enemy; he doesn’t have the smarts on his own.
The anti-christ was “made the full measure”—absolutely beautiful and smart as hell; knows scripture better than any Christian. So, don’t fall for him when he arrives at the sixth trump claiming to be God.
Barry? He just smells bad, does drugs, and needs a teleprompter to make a point. Oh, and he likes “receiving sexual favors” from old white guys. (You’d think he’d give them more bennies than “Holder’s people for their “efforts” on his behalf.)
What is it about Clinton and Obamma, both came from fatherless screwed up families. Something strange indeed, is afoot.
Yes.
What most people don’t know is that Islam also has an antichrist, the Dajjal, they say he will declare himself the son of God, and He is, Dajjal is the true Jesus Christ returned, and He will defeat the mahdi and issa, Dajjal will protect Christians and the Jews, the key to understanding Revelation is the koran!
bump fer later
The bible tells there are many anti-christs, not just “an” anti-christ. Obama is clearly anti-christ.
Another take - the Koran seems to have copied and distorted much from the bible. That the Anti-Christ could come from the Middle East does make sense though, however Barry sure does seem to fit the mold well for right now.

Do you have a Scriptural source for that?
Easy enough question. Let's let Mr 0b0tt0 explain.
