I have received this same email TOO many times. I am amazed at the emails that Christians will mindlessly forward without giving it any thought or study.
Are you guilty?
Here is the email
A friend of mine sent this to me. It is definitely food for thought.
According to The Book of Revelations the anti-christ is:
The anti-christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM d! escent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal....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. Is it OBAMA??
I STRONGLY URGE each one of you to repost 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.
Here is my response to the email.

Well lets see...
The word antichrist does not appear in the book of revelation at all... period.
The Bible defines antichrist as a spirit and said that it existed in the days of the apostles
Despite the fact that the antichrist was never called a man...
The Bible never ever said "he" would be around 40 years of age.
The Bible never said "he" would be of Muslim descent.
The Bible never says that "he" will deceive the nations with persuasive language
The Bible never says that "he will have massive Christ like appeal
There is no prophecy that says that people will flock to "him".
There is no prophecy that says that "he" will promise false hope and world peace and when he is in power destroy everything.

Your thoughts?
When the book of Revelation was written there was no Muslim religion. Where do people get this nonsense?

Truthfully I think they get it from taking what certain "endtime" preachers have said over the years and, after a certain amount of time has past, they actually believe that these things are in the word of God... apparently verbatim.
generally when I get email from friends and family, I first check the bottom of the email. if it says "forward", I delete as it was not sent to me personally.
I have been known to respond to the sender with a link to snopes.com and a comment about how inaccurate it is.
I do respone to email sent to me by friends and family that are sent as letters. personal notes sent via email are very nice and I appreciate keeping up with folk.
jokes are cool.
funny video are cool
telling me to send an email to 10 people so bill gates will give me a million bucks are not cool.
explaining how the world will end next tuesday are not cool.

Making the decisive factor as to whether you love/are not ashamed of God being based on whether you forward this email or not...
