First, many Christians know that Jesus told a group of Jews, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it” (Jn. 8:44).

Satan is the father of lies and a person’s mouth reveals what is in his or her heart (Luke 6:45). Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord (Prov. 12:22). Unlike the Muslim religion that allows lying under some circumstances, blatant and constant lying is a denial of the Christian faith. The person that does it has not been regenerated and is walking according to the prince of the power of the air, otherwise known as Satan (Eph. 2:2).

Extreme or abnormal lying comes in my mind when I think of Pres. Obama because he seems incapable of telling the truth. He came on the scene with a forged Selective Service document, a forged birth certificate, a stolen Social Security number and making promises that he obviously had no intention of keeping. He promised to run the most transparent administration in history, but hid his school records, his travel records and his draft records.

He promised to end earmarks, but hasn’t. He promised to post bills on the White House website for five days before he signs them, but hasn’t. He promised that he wouldn’t hire lobbyists, but has. He requested money for shovel-ready jobs that he later admitted didn’t exist.  He stood before the United Nations and lied about Benghazi. He stood before the American people and lied about the cost of health care.

He went on TV and said there isn’t a smidgeon of evidence that the IRS was targeting his enemies and now some of that evidence has been found. Many more examples are readily available, but this is more than enough to show that Pres. Obama has a better relationship with the father of lies than he has with the God of truth.

Second, many Christians are aware that there is more to what is going on in the world than can be seen with the human eye. Underneath the events that take place on earth is an unseen struggle between good and evil—God and Satan, the angels of God and the demons of Satan, the Spirit of Christ and the spirit of Antichrist. This prompted Paul to say, “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities [Satan and his organization of demons], against powers [demons that have special authority], against the rulers of the darkness of this world [unsaved world leaders], against spiritual wickedness [evil doing] in high places” (Eph. 6:12).

Daniel’s encounter with a demonic spirit called the prince of Persiais a clear example of this (Dan. 10:13). Daniel was fasting and praying, but one of Satan’s demonic spirits hindered a good angel from delivering the answer to Daniel’s prayer for 21 days. This was not just any demonic spirit.

It was the demonic spirit that is in charge of Persia (Iran). And it took one of God’s chief angels, Michael (he is just one of several leader angels), to help the good angel get through with the answer to Daniel’s prayer. But there is more to this: The answer to Daniel’s prayer involves what will happen to Daniel’s people (the Jews) in the latter days (Dan.10:14).

Third, in addition to lying, and attacks by demons and world leaders on the Jews in the latter days, many Christians are aware that Paul said those who practice the gay lifestyle and commit several other sins including deceit will be given over to a reprobate mind (Rom.1:24-32). Because they choose to ignore the truth, God will allow them to lack discernment, good judgment or common sense. He will allow them to become insensitive and to lose the ability to know the difference between right and wrong.

Pres. Obama’s lifestyle has been less than exemplary. It has been reported that he was given a lifetime membership in a gay bar and bathhouse and that a judge dismissed a libel case against a man who claimed he had sex and used cocaine with Pres. Obama (see World Net Daily; Claim: Obama Hid “Gay Life” to Become President; 9/11/2012). He admits that he used drugs (Dreams of My Father) and was a member of the “Choom Gang” of marijuana smokers in High School. The gay lifestyle (reprobate mind) and drug use can lead to brain damage.

To try to sum this up, Pres. Obama promised that Jerusalem would remain the undivided capital of Israel under his presidency, but he is pushing the two-state solution and trying to stop Israeli construction in East Jerusalem, so he lied. Pres. Obama has embraced the prince of Persia and his Iranian Ayatollahs and Mullahs who want nuclear weapons and have vowed to destroy Israel. U.S. Pres. Obama is threatening to take revenge against Israel for electing the leader of their choice.

Mr. Netanyahu reached out to him, but he has manifested a menacing, unforgiving, unchristian, spirit. It is not the kind of thing a Christian leader of sound mind would do. It boils down to the fact that Pres. Obama is making irrational, anti-God, anti-Semitic, pro-Iranian decisions that are totally devoid of sound thinking, common sense and knowledge of the Bible.

Lies and anti-Semitism are Satanic. They are characteristics of the Antichrist. They are destructive. And Pres. Obama’s speech and actions are destructive for both Israel and the U.S.

Don’t be concerned about Israel, but be concerned about the U.S. because we are in greater danger than Israel. We are surely a sign of the latter days.

The spirit of Antichrist has been in the world at least since God said the seed of woman would bruise Satan’s head (Gen. 3:15). God’s curse was the beginning of a great earthly struggle between good and evil. In the beginning, it focused on preventing the first coming of Jesus. It is now focused on preventing the Second Coming of Jesus. It will continue until this world is destroyed by fire (Matt. 24:35; II Pet. 3:10).

The Antichrist won’t be revealed until the church is raptured, but the spirit of Antichrist is already here (II Thess. 2:6, 7; I Jn. 4:3). It is anti-God, anti-Jesus, anti-Truth, anti-Christian, the Apostasy, the falling away, the departure from the faith, the emerging church, liberalism, humanism, globalism, inclusiveness, replacement theology, non-Christian religions and the like.

Among other things, this wicked spirit will lead to perilous times, blasphemy, fierceness and despising those that are good in the last days (II Tim. 3:1-4). It will make the world more dangerous (wars, nuclear weapons, more deadly pestilences etc.). Humanity will become more despicable (ungodly or contemptuous of God). People will become more brutal (behead people, burn people alive, cut babies in two); and society will become more intolerant of those who serve God at the end of the Church Age (persecution).

Instead of a worldwide revival with the church converting the world, the people on planet Earth will move farther away from Jesus until all that will live godly in Christ will suffer persecution (II Thess. 2:3; Rev. 3:16; II Tim. 3:12). Christians all over the Middle East are being persecuted right now and it is a growing problem in the U.S.

Jesus, the Disciples, Paul and many of the early Christians were persecuted. A pastor that I know recently preached on “Preparing for the Coming Persecution.” Rev. Franklin Graham recently said that he is concerned about “persecution in this country” [the U.S.]. He added that, “We’ve already seen many laws that have been passed that restrict our freedom as Christians. I believe it’s going to get worse.”

About two weeks ago there was testimony before a U.S. Senate subcommittee that the U.S. received about seven million immigrants in fiscal 2014. They came from many places, but most were Hispanics and some were Muslims.

God loves all of them.  He wants all of them to know that Jesus died for everyone’s sins. He wants all of them to accept Jesus as their Savior and to go to heaven.

But it should be understood that seven million immigrants, plus the multiplied millions more that are expected to arrive in the next 3 to 4 years, are going to impact the already failing spirituality of theU.S.

No one can deny that there are places in the world where the church is growing, but the U.S. is not one of them. Many pastors say that they think the Apostasy has already started in the U.S. They see very little difference between most of their church members and the lost. Apathy and moral failure are already widespread in U.S.churches.

This is the point: The growing persecution and spiritual decline ofAmerica is bad enough already, but it is going to get much worse in the future. It is difficult to say how many Muslims are coming into the U.S. when people are saying the number is much higher than our government is letting on. And Pres. Obama has already said he will increase it even more. It is sad to know that Syrian Muslims are being brought in, but Syrian Christians are being refused entry. Bringing non-Christians in and keeping Christians out changes things.

Increasing the population of Muslims is going to mean more mosques; more demands to stop monitoring mosques, more demands to stop profiling Muslims; more demands to bring in extended families of Muslims; more demands for Muslim prayers before Congress, at city council meetings and the like.

It will mean more demands for Sharia Law: more attempts to get rid of the Bible, portray Christians as hate-mongers and extremists, send Christians to sensitivity training, get rid of chaplains in the military and the like; more demands to change school textbooks, lunch menus, etc. and perhaps more terrorist attacks, especially on churches.

Muslims are coming (and being brought) to the U.S. for many reasons, but the primary reason they are coming is to fundamentally transform the U.S. into a Muslim nation.

I have been to Mexico and seen many faithful Hispanic Christians. The vast majority is nominal at best. About 75-80%, say they are Catholic. They say they are Catholic because their parents were Catholic or they believe they were born Catholic. But their Catholic beliefs are far from traditional mainline Christianity. In many cases, their beliefs have been blended with ritualism, magic, voodoo, varied Indian cultural practices and the like.

Several years ago, a missionary took my wife and me to a Roman Catholic Church in Mexico and a voodoo ceremony was being performed in the church. I am not against legalized immigration (and I don’t blame anyone for seeking a better life), but I am saying that letting 25-30 million people with many kinds of strange beliefs come into the U.S. in the next 4 to 5 years (and not letting Christians in) will decrease the percentage of true Christians in the U.S.

Understand that the Bible is not wrong. Every jot and tittle will be fulfilled including what it says about persecution. Understand too, that what Islamic terrorists do in other countries (behead Christians,burn churches, burn people alive, cut babies in two, sell people into slavery) they will also do in the U.S. Their threats to raise the Islamic State flag over the White House and to blow up the White House should be taken seriously.

The spirit of Antichrist is already here and a flood of epic proportions is on the way. It will further weaken the U.S. spiritually and we should be concerned for our Lord, our children, our grandchildren, others and ourselves.
