Re: our recent chat. I thought this article might be of interest to you. If not, forgive the ping.
The article itself ... slightly different.
Why would he have to defend it?
it’s already happening
I’m not a fundamentalist, but, yes, I do believe Obama’s Double-Header election to the presidency portends and confirms the majority character of our country is in a lethal war with it’s self. May the best civilization win. I consider the traditional civilization, openly inspired by the bible and the torah to be the potentially the best civilization there has ever been. We will get through this period of having our president trying to destroy all that is good and constructive in America. We needed this time of reckoning. He, Obama, is a reflection of how far we have fallen. Not in every little aspect of his life, no, but in the ideals he espouses, and in the manner he strives to ignore or take away our individual voices on how to live our own lives.
The pastor said he wanted to enlighten and engage Christians, not forecast the coming apocalypse.

Well that’s not what the old time Southern Baptists used to preach. This Pastor is trying to be too PC for me. Call the devil out or stop talking.
seems to me that Jeffress has made some valid points.
I think this is appropriate.
Sounds like an interesting book.
With the Jan. 6 release of a press statement by Worthy Publishing, Jeffress has come under fire yet again. Using current events to illustrate how a future world ruler could easily subvert moral law, Jeffress named names. "Although President Obama is certainly not the Antichrist, his policies are paving the way for the Antichrist," Jeffress stated in the book.
PFL
Obama doesn’t have the work ethic needed to be Anti-Christ.
Anyone who does not understand that Obama seeks to destroy Christianity in America isn’t really trying...............
The Islamic messiah - biblical Christians would know him as the Anti-Christ
He is half black, half white. He is tall and strides with a lope. He possesses dead eyes and prominent ears. His background is both obscure and exotic. He is persuasively eloquent and is adept at saying one thing while doing another. His head swivels from side to side when addressing the multitudes, as if reading from prepared texts no doubt lowered from on high and inscribed by the Lord or one of his angels. He gives the distinct impression of being a man-child. He is supremely confident and exudes a certain boyish charm many find irresistible. He is devoted to popular sports involving holes and nets as emblems of ensnaring. He bows frequently in false humility, cajoling the high and mighty of the earth, yet brooks no objection to his will when dissent is offered. He is to be found in many different places from one day to another. He is surrounded by loyal minions, many of whom appear to be imbeciles, who do his bidding without question or scruple. He occupies the seat of power.
...All his actions are directed toward igniting the flames that wait to engulf the world. He diligently undermines the laws, security and prosperity of the people he ostensibly represents, and turns one against the other, sowing discord among the populace. He betrays his friends and allies and renders them vulnerable to international predators. He sponsors and supports warlike groups and aggressive regimes that seek world hegemony. He is an undeclared enemy of the Jewish people and the Jewish state. He is a great friend to Islam in its march toward imposing a caliphate upon unsuspecting nations. He welcomes the black flag and the yellow flag into the sanctum of domestic authority, distributing office among his Muslim acolytes. He smiles upon the ayatollahs and signs agreements that facilitate their holy designs to kindle universal violence and establish God’s kingdom on earth.
He has been schooled at the feet of prophets and sages and learned from the masters of canon and creed. He is the repository of sacred teachings and potent incantations, and is adept at uttering sonorous phrases that please as they befuddle. He is the embodiment of consecrated, numinous and venerable doctrine. He is no longer Hidden but exults among us in all his glory. He is the bringer of chaos and the last days. He will inaugurate a new world order.
I can understand the objection. Can you imagine how the Prince of Darkness must feel? Satan is supposed to be God's adversary, and the poor guy is being compared to a drug-addled communist who is just as evil but too lazy to do much about it most days. I'll bet the Antichrist sounds like Rodney Dangerfield, muttering about "no respect" when he hears that comparison.
Good for Jeffress, I applaud him for saying this...and for what he said previously about Mormonism.
Obama’s socialism and antichristianism is indeed paving the way for antichrist. There is a reason satan’s antichrist one world system is painted in red, the color of commmunism/socialism (Rev. 12).
Why the false title of this thread, Graybeard?
