Actor/ musician Jamie Foxx recently called Barack Obama, “Our Lord and Savior” during an Awards show! “Just a harmless joke”, some will say. But, there are some things that you just don’t joke about and this is on top of the list. “Joke” or not, it’s obvious that the natural man is a very poor judge of character and selfish beyond measure. Give them what they want and they will put you on the throne!
Some people have wondered how it could be possible that the Antichrist could gain such wide-spread acceptance and control– how could one man deceive so many? My response is, How can you not see the ease with which this could happen? Have you forgotten about the popularity of Hitler and other ruthless dictators? All you have to do is find a man who convinces the people that he will give them what they want. Do that and BINGO he is installed in office. All he has to do is appeal to the lowest, base, sinful desires of people and they will follow him off “the cliff”. All this is easy to explain–but, for the Christian, very heart-breaking to see. And it is going to happen! The only people who have hope of eternal life are those who trust Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Think about it!
