The end of the age will be marked by a one-world government ruled by an evil man that Christians call the Antichrist (Dan. 7:23; Rev. 13:7-8). Some think Pres. Obama is the Antichrist. Others think he is a type (a picture or a forerunner) of the Antichrist.

This writer has long believed that Pres. Obama might seek to become one of the 10 kings (the first head of the North American Union), but he appears to want more than that. He appears to want to rule the world.

There was a report on Jan. 8, 2016 that Pres. Obama wants to head up the UN when Sec. Gen. Ban Ki-moon ends his term on Dec. 31, 2016. The belief by some that Pres. Obama is the Antichrist coupled with his desire to take the top spot in the UN wannabe world government has prompted some speculation.

So here is a partial list of the characteristics of the Antichrist:

First, the Antichrist will start out in a small or insignificant way, steadily move into a position of limited power (prince) and quickly move on to the most powerful position on earth:

“There came up among them another little horn.” (Dan. 7:8).

“The people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary” (Dan. 9:26).

“They worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?” (Rev. 13:4).

Second, the Antichrist will say arrogant, pompous or condescending things; He will have “a mouth speaking great things” (Dan. 7:8).

Third, the Antichrist will slander God; persecute believers; and try to change calendars, holidays and laws: He “shall speak greatwords against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws” (Dan. 7:25; also see Rev. 13:7).

Fourth, the Antichrist will ignore the truth and tell lies. He will “cast down the truth to the ground” (Dan. 8:12; also see 2 Thess. 2:9).

Fifth, the Antichrist will be given great power and he will succeed as a destroyer of powerful people and believers

“His power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practice, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people” (Dan. 8:24).

Sixth, the Antichrist will cause false or evil worship to prosper; boast and think highly of himself; he will use peace as a tool to destroy many and he will oppose Jesus:

“And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes” (Dan. 8:25).

Also see Dan. 11:36; Rev. 6:1-2; 13:6).

Seventh, the Antichrist will do what he wants to do regardless of what the law says or what others think. He will “do according to his will” (Dan. 11:36).

Eighth, the Antichrist will not heed the wishes of his father’s god or women or anyone’s god. This is unclear, but some think he will be godless and gay:

“Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all” (Dan. 11:37; also see II Thess. 2:4).

Ninth, the Antichrist will divide the Land of Israel. He “shall divide the land for gain” (Dan. 11:39).

Tenth, the Antichrist will come from the group of nations that destroyed Jerusalem and the temple in AD 70:

“The people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary” (Dan. 9:26).

Concerning the list of characteristics prophesied by Daniel cited above, few can honestly deny that Pres. Obama started out small (relatively unknown before becoming Pres. of the U.S.), that he is arrogant (has a pen and a phone), that he is condescending (lectures Christians about criticizing Muslims), and that he wants to change laws (disarm America’s citizens).

Pres. Obama lies: “Obamacare will lower your annual insurance premiums by $2500.” He has destroyed powerful people (brought great harm to the U.S.). He does everything according to his own will (with executive actions and executive orders). And he wants to divide the Land of Israel (Two-State solution), etc.

The only problem this writer has with the belief that Pres. Obama is the Antichrist is this: The Roman Empire, the group of nations that destroyed Jerusalem and the temple (as far as this writer knows), Pres. Obama is not from that group of nations. (I know his father was from Kenya; Pres. Obama’s birth certificate was probably forged.)

Pres. Obama is probably using a stolen social security number; his school records, medical records, passport. All of that important information is hidden. We know that there are 6 letters in his first name, 6 in his second name and 6 in his third name; etc.). But this writer is not convinced that Pres. Obama is from the old Roman Empire.

It is now being reported that Pres. Obama has given up on securing a peace treaty in the Middle East by the end of his administration. One must wonder if he has given up because the new target date for confirming a treaty is 2030.

People wonder why Pres. Obama constantly defends Muslims when it is clear that Islamic terrorists are responsible for most of the terrorism in the world. One must wonder if he defends Islam because he wants the support of 53 Muslim nations to become the next Sec. Gen. of the UN.

Also, if he is trying to become the head of the UN, would he declare martial law in the U.S.?

God is not bound by UN goals, but if there is going to be a world government in 2030, the world will soon start seeing the rise of the 10 kings, perhaps other regional currencies, a greater push for world religion, etc.

If there is going to be a world government in 2030 and the Pre-Trib Rapture is right, the Rapture is less than 14 years away (and as always, it could happen at any time).

Finally, if there is going to be a world government in 2030, the Antichrist and the False Prophet are alive now; we are the terminal generation and billions of people need to get saved immediately. Billions will not survive the Tribulation period.

“A time of trouble and distress” is a description of the Tribulation period (Zeph. 1:14-18). The information below appears to indicate its approach.

Economic Collapse

Sept. 25, 2014 through Sept. 13, 2015 was a Shemitah year. Jonathan Cahn caused quite a stir when he warned that there could be economic problems as the end of the year approached.

Many questioned his theology, but in late June and early July of 2015 China’s stock markets lost about 35-40%. A few weeks later (mid-Aug. of 2015), China devalued its currency three days in a row. Less than five months later (early Jan. of 2016), China’s stock markets plunged again and trade was suspended two days in a row. It took Chinese intervention to settle the collapsing market down.

China is the second largest economy in the world so her economic problems had a negative impact on the global economy. For example, it caused the Dow Jones stock market in the U.S. to get off to its worst four-day start in history.

This is a troublesome sign because the UN has agreed to establish a world government by 2030 and globalists never want to let a crisis go to waste. Many think a global economic crisis could be used to restructure the world into ten groups of nations and create ten regional currencies as a prelude to a world government.

The Antichrist

On Jan. 8, 2016, an article in a Kuwaiti newspaper called Al-Jaridasaid Pres. Obama is pushing to replace Ban Ki-moon as UN Sec.-Gen. when Mr. Ki-moon’s term ends on Dec. 31, 2016. According to the article, Mr. Obama has already discussed this move with Democrats, Republicans and Jewish officials in the U.S.

The article said Prime Minister Netanyahu remembers how Pres. Obama has acted toward Israel. He remembers that Pres. Obama brushed aside Israeli objections and forged ahead with his deal to let Iran get nuclear weapons so Mr. Netanyahu is trying to rally moderate Arab nations to sabotage Pres. Obama’s move.

The coming world government will have only one leader and he will be destroyed at the Second Coming of Jesus. Many think Pres. Obama is the Antichrist and Pope Francis is the False Prophet. This writer thinks Pres. Obama is clearly a type of the antichrist, but not the real Antichrist.

Some contend that Pope Francis is the False Prophet based on his questionable theology and the Prophecy of Malachy (112th Pope). Others might contend that his age at 2030 (beginning of world government) and 2037 (end of world government) indicates that he can’t be the False Prophet.

Still others might suggest that the Ten Horns (Ten Kings) must appear before the Little Horn (Dan. 7:24) and they haven’t appeared so Pres. Obama becoming Sec. Gen. of the UN is meaningless. Only God knows what is going to happen, but Pres. Obama in charge of the UN would not be a pleasant thought to many.

Death of Multitudes

On Jan. 6, 2016, North Korea, probably one of the Kings of the East, bragged that her scientists carried out a test explosion of a hydrogen bomb. Peter Pry, a former CIA Analyst and expert on EMP weapons, said it was an Electromagnetic Pulse Explosion (EMP).

An explosion such as this over the right place in the U.S. could destroy America’s power grid, cause unimaginable destruction and, if this writer remembers correctly, lead to the death of up to 90 percent of America’s population during the next twelve months.

Deception

House Speaker Paul Ryan and Sen. Mitch McConnell supported and passed a bill that funded Planned Parenthood and Obamacare. They did this even though Planned Parenthood was caught selling body parts and Obamacare was based on lies. After funding these programs, Ryan and McConnell supported and passed a bill to defund these programs knowing that Pres. Obama said he would veto it.

Put another way: They funded Planned Parenthood and Obamacare. But they want the voters to think Pres. Obama is the reason why they can’t defund them. These men can no longer be trusted and this is one reason why Franklin Graham decided to abandon the Republican Party. Check their ratings at the link below. [1]

The truth that faith in Jesus and the Rapture of the Church is the Christian’s only hope becomes more obvious every day.

Distress of Nations, with Perplexity

On Jan. 6, 2016, Lt. Gen. Michael T. Flynn, former head of the U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency, told Megyn Kelly (The Kelly File), “The importance of this next national election is huge because whoever is the president of the United States is going to deal with an absolute mess on their hands and it is going to last for a long time, potentially their entire presidency.”

Gun Control

Pres. Obama is now wants to use executive action to disarm the mentally ill. That might not be so bad if the government wasn’t the one to say who is mentally ill (those who oppose global warming, Islam and same-sex marriage; veterans, TEA Party members, Bible thumpers, etc.).
