It is unlikely that Obama is the antichrist, judging by his background and today's events. Though he may be a forerunner -- a "John the Baptist". Clearly, judging by the way the mainstream media and so many public figures and private individuals are fawning over Barack Obama, the American mentality is ripe to worship a charismatic leader; but it is still too early for the appearance of any of the major players of Revelation. The Beasts: Firstly, a beast in prophecy represents some sort of power: a kingdom, alliance of Kingdoms, or government(s). Horns on beasts represent the kingdom's ruler(s). For instance, Daniel's vision of the Greek Empire was represented by a goat (Daniel 8:5-8) The prominent horn of the goat represents Alexander the Great. There are three "Beasts" in Revelation. The First Beast: The beast that rises out of the sea in Revelation 13 has seven heads and ten horns. One of the heads survives a fatal wound, and the dragon gives it power. Prophecy scholars are pretty much unanimous that this beast represents the European Economic Union (EEU). Unless he somehow manages to get empowered in the EEU, Barack Obama does not fit this description. The Second Beast: This beast rises out of the dry land. He does great wonders and causes people to worship the first Beast. The Image of the first Beast: The second beast makes an image of the first beast, then brings the image to life. The image he creates of the first beast commands people to take the 666 mark in order to buy or sell. The Third beast: A scarlet colored beast also with seven heads and ten horns upon which a woman rode who was drunk with the blood of the saints. The seven heads are seven hills. (Bible Scholars will bring to your attention that Rome is the city of seven hills) The Scarlet Beast and the man of lawlessness (below) are probably describing the same person. He is killed, then lives again. The False Prophet: The false prophet that wrought miracles before the Beast. Not much is said about the false prophet, except that he is thrown alive in the lake of fire, so whatever he does, must be very evil. Unless Obama has something up his sleeve, I doubt Obama is the false prophet. The Antichrist: So, bottom line, who is "the" Antichrist?
Slide 2: This is probably the "man of lawlessness" from 2 Thessalonians (Also the scarlet beast, above, who is killed and lives again are describing the same person in two different ways)   ... For that day will not come until there is a great rebellion against God and the man of lawlessness is revealed--the one who brings destruction... This evil man will come to do the work of Satan with counterfeit power and signs and miracles. He will use every kind of wicked deception to fool those who are on their way to destruction because they refuse to believe the truth that would save them... (2 Thessalonians 2:3-12 NLT)   Unless Obama gets killed and comes back to life, I would not expect he is the scarlet beast - or the man of lawlessness. At present, if Obama has supernatural powers, he has not revealed them. And I honestly do not expect him to. In short, Barack Hussein Obama is probably not "the" antichrist of Bible Prophecy. But keep your eyes open... The real thing will surely be revealed soon. A.L.
