Let me know what you think

If read this E-mail, then I urge you to just consider the following, think what you will but I guarantee it is no more 'far fetched' than the E-mail you originally received. All of the statements added to this message can be found by reading Rev 13 and the 1st Amendment of the Bill Of Rights

How long is the beast allowed to have authority in Revelations?
Revelations Chapter 13 tells us it is 42 months, and you know what that is.
Almost a four-year term of a Presidency.

This first point is somewhat true, BUT, only when put in the correct context. 42 months is 3.5 years. A stretch at best but I will give you this one.

All I can say is 'Lord, Have mercy on us!'

This next part I am going to break down so that it is easier to understand.

According to The Book of Revelations the anti-Christ is: So far so good this much is true.

The anti-Christ will be a man, Also true, so far so good.

in his 40's, Not true, nowhere in Rev 13 does it say anything about this.

of MUSLIM descent, Same goes for this point. Not anywhere in the chapter.

who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, Good this part is somewhat true, but again twisting of words.

and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal.... Nowhere in the chapter does it say anything even remotely close to Christ-like. On the other hand it does use the words beast and fierce, describing the beast as having seven heads and numerous horns.

the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything.. This part is a summary of things said

This section is all opinion so I have no thoughts either way until...

Do we recognize this description??

I STRONGLY URGE each one of you to post this as many times as you can! Each opportunity that you have to send it to a friend or media outlet..do it! I refuse to take a chance on this unknown candidate who came out of nowhere.

Dear Friends,

As I was listening to a news program last night, I watched in horror as Barack Obama made the statement with pride. . ..'we are no longer a Christian nation; we are now a nation of Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, . . ' As with so many other statements I've heard him (and his wife) make, I never thought I'd see the day that I'd hear something like that from a presidential candidate in this nation. To think our forefathers fought and died for the right for our nation to be a Christian nation--and to have this man say with pride that we are no longer that. How far this nation has come from what our founding fathers intended it to be.

Again this is mostly opinion but I would just like to point out a few basic things. First of all the comment of religion in the nation, followed by,”To think that our forefathers fought and died for the right for our nation to be a Christian nation.” I would point you to the Bill Of Rights 1st Amendment which goes as follows :

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

This, as a matter of fact is what our forefathers fought for. Not a Christian nation, but a free nation.

I would like to leave you with a final thought regardless of what political party you vote with, or what religion you claim to be. Remember to be skeptical of any message that creates the feeling of hate. Be weary of messages that are heavy handed, do your own research rather than letting someone put the “facts” in front of you. Have your opinion be your own based on researched facts not text in an e-mail. Or a sound byte on a news cast. No one should fault you for having an informed, personal opinion. As long as it is that Informed and your own opinion.

If you made it this far I want to say thanks for your time.
