Anti-Christ Revealed! ANTI‐CHRIST REVEALED! FROM WWW.SATANASBARACKOBAMA.COM THE BASICS Luke 10:18 includes Jesus, Satan, and Barack Jesus is the Speaker Satan is the direct object of Jesus’s statement Barack is described as being Satan WHO ON EARTH WOULD NOT THINK THAT THIS VERSE DESERVES SOME ATTENTION! • Should we not “thoroughly” investigate this verse with full scholarly attention? • Should this not be a topic of information and debate for all Bible believing peoples? • Should we not make every effort to explain the implications of Jesus statement to non‐believers? • Has God provided a “message” for us that will bring about an end times revival to save the lost? • Should we not proclaim the end times meaning of this “coincidence” whereby Jesus Himself uttered the name of the most powerful man in today’s world, Barack Obama, as being linked to Satan? • Is this not the most important message for our “end” times? Luke Chapter 10 reports: Jesus says to the 70 disciples returning from ministry: “I beheld Satan as Barack …….. falling.” (verse 18) After which Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said: “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.” (verse 21) Luke Chapter 10 continues: Then He turned to His disciples and said privately: “Blessed are the eyes which see the things you see, for I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see what you see, and have not seen it, and to hear what you hear and have not heard it.” (verse 24) Obviously, Jesus has had a mystery revealed to him which the wise and prudent will fail to hear! Did Jesus have a vision of the future Anti‐Christ (Barack Obama) being cast into hell? And the beast [Anti‐Christ] was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire……. (Revelations 19:20) WHY IS THIS NOT KNOWN? Barack is also the Hebrew word for “lightning” therefore Luke 10:18 was translated “Satan as lightning” thus The name “Barack” has been hidden for 2000 years WHY IS THIS NOT TAUGHT IN THE SEMINARIES & CHURCHES? As Jesus said in Luke 10:21 “….you have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes.” The term prudent effectively describes what I will call “comfortable cowards” or those clever individuals who will find excuses to maintain the “status quo” politically rather than warn the people. The religious authorities acted the same way in Jesus day: Then the chief priests and Pharisees gathered a sanhedrin, and said, What can we do? For this man does many miracles. If we let him alone this way, all will believe on him. And the Romans will come and take away both our place and nation. (John 11:47‐48) NAMES: THE KEY TO FUTURE PROPHECIES REVEALED • 400 years before Jesus Malachi wrote: “Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD. (Malachi 4:5) • Luke recorded the birth and naming of John the Baptist as: “……you will give him the name John. ……………It is he who will go as a forerunner before Him in the spirit and power of Elijah,….” (Luke 1:13, 17) NAMES: THE KEY TO FUTURE PROPHECIES REVEALED • Jesus, Himself then certified the Elijah prophecy by saying: “And if you are willing to accept it, John himself is Elijah who was to come. (Matthew 11:14) • Thus God has a history of using names hidden in scripture to be the keys to signal a critical “CHANGE” is coming! • Dare we ignore the signs? NAMES: THE KEY TO FUTURE PROPHECIES REVEALED • Are we like the religious “know it all’s” of Jesus day who had preconceived ideas about God’s timing and thus stand to miss His coming “And His disciples asked Him, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?” 11 And He answered and said, “Elijah is coming and will restore all things; 12 but I say to you that Elijah already came, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wished. So also the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands.” 13 Then the disciples understood that He had spoken to them about John the Baptist. (Matthew 17:10‐13) • Do we think that a Temple will be rebuilt in Jerusalem to “signal” us that our lives must be cleaned up? • Do we await a branding iron with “666” on it as our signal for the mark of the beast? • Do we think that the rapture will carry us away from all tribulation? Not so! • When you read “Satan as Barack Obama” you will see that there is nothing of Biblical end time events left to occur before a “single world crisis event” would allow Barack Obama to seize total power! Verifying “Satan as Barack” via Internet • Using on‐line Hebrew and Greek we will provide the comparisons to allow anyone to see that Jesus said, “I beheld Satan as Barack…”. • The rest of the name “Obama” and the overall supporting scripture context are provided in the book, Satan as Barack Obama. www.satanasbarackobama.com Check the Scripture Yourself on the Internet 1.

Demonstration that Luke 10:18 in Greek links Satan as “lightning” which is “Barack” when translated to Hebrew http://biblos.com/luke/10‐18.htm Luke 10:18 in Original Greek Hebrew vs. Aramaic • Many scholars point out that Jesus spoke Aramaic (a sister language to Hebrew); however, he also would have been fluent in Hebrew which was the language of theological statement and inquiry for the Jewish nation, for example: “In the synagogues the targums (or translations) were always oral, while the honored Hebrew text was always read from a scroll. This was a strict rule, lest the paraphrase be confused with the authoritative text.” ‐ Neil R. Lightfoot in “How We Got the Bible” Hebrew vs. Aramaic • Lightning in Hebrew is pronounced “barack” • Lightning in Aramaic is pronounced “baracka” • Given the context of Luke 10:18 and the dramatic moment of Satan as Barack falling into the Lake of Fire (Revelations 19:20) then my hypothesis is that Jesus spoke in Hebrew to announce to His apostles His vision and to have His words recorded in scripture for the future revelation of the Anti‐Christ by the name Barack Obama. Summary • The person of the Anti‐Christ is a mystery to be revealed (2 Thess. 2:8‐9) • God has foretold names and concealed these names in the past to denote His changes in history • In Luke 10:18 we see the name linkage of: Satan = lightning = Barack “Satan as Barack” • These coincidences are warning signs to all, especially given the ungodly ideological power grabs and chaos that we now see unfolding • Are you willing to accept it? (Matthew 11:14).

  • The Nativity According to Luke: an Original Work of Art
    The Nativity According to Luke: An original work of art By Ben Witherington III The Christmas portions of the gospel are, perhaps, the most beloved, and the most belabored, texts in the New Testament. Like works of art that have been lacquered with coat after coat of varnish, the original stories are hardly visible any more. Today, it is difficult to conceive the Nativity without an ox and ass, for example, although neither Matthew nor Luke mentions animals. (Rather, St. Francis, the great medieval lover of animals, is credited with building the first manger scene complete with live animals.) The three wise men are also permanent fixtures in our image of the Nativity, although they don’t arrive, according to Matthew 2, until several days after the birth of Jesus (the epiphany to the shepherds does, however, take place the same day). Perhaps revisiting the story from a historian’s point of view may remove some of these mistaken impressions, these layers of lacquer, and let us see the masterpiece in its brilliant original colors. Part of the problem today is that we tend to conflate Matthew’s and Luke’s accounts into one Nativity story. To counter this, in this column we will confine ourselves to a few verses from Luke. At the time of the birth, Joseph and Mary are in Bethlehem, Joseph’s ancestral home, where the couple has traveled, according to Luke 2:1–5, to participate in a census. As Luke 2:5 states clearly, Joseph and Mary are engaged, and Mary is pregnant. Engagement in early Judaism was as binding as modern marriage is today.

  • The Luke 10 Manual by Steve & Marilyn Hill
    1 The Luke 10 Manual by Steve & Marilyn Hill THE LUKE 10 MANUAL MISSION AS MANDATED AND MODELED BY JESUS STEVE AND MARILYN HILL Jesus was the smartest and best leader who ever walked on the planet. Why do we think we have a better way? 2 The Luke 10 Manual by Steve & Marilyn Hill A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS For over a decade I've been chronicling the global advance of God's Kingdom . And it's true - the book of Acts is still happening today! But it's often not on shiny church platforms, well- marketed Christian conferences or touristic revival trips. The Kingdom is happening where ordinary Jesus followers pray and move out of their comfort zone, go to unlikely places (but it could be next door), serve, share Jesus with others, meet, eat, disciple and multiply. This is the dynamic we read about in Luke 10 and the book of Acts. This is how the early church started and reached the Ancient world. This is how the Kingdom is still advancing today. Steve Hill has been a friend and companion for many years. He and Marilyn have invested themselves in 'people of peace' and simple church groups across North America, Europe and Central Asia. What he shares in this book is no theory, it's experience. Marc van der Woude publisher joelnews.org and teamleader simplechuch.eu It was so refreshing to read The Luke 10 Manual by Steve Hill. He brings much needed correction and adjustment to many beliefs and practices that are prevalent in “charismatic/apostolic/prophetic” circles.

  • The Beatitudes Lesson 5 “Blessed Are the Merciful”
    "Scripture taken from the NEW AMERICAN STANDARD BIBLE®, © Copyright 1960, 1962, 1963, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation Used by permission." (www.Lockman.org) The Beatitudes Lesson 5 “Blessed Are The Merciful” Introduction. 1. As with all the beatitudes, the fifth beatitude is most important to true and lasting happiness. 2. It logically follows the previous four beatitudes. a. The first beatitude stressed one must recognize his spiritual destitution, and his own righteousness cannot save. 1) Good works, wealth, power, education, fame, reputation, etc. cannot save. 2) None of these things can atone for sin. 3) Only the blood of Jesus can cleanse one from sin. b. The second beatitude sets forth that one should mourn over his wretched state, and if this sorrow is godly sorrow it will end with comfort. 1) Boasting about sin or rationalizing [as not so bad] or denying sin will not save. 2) It is not enough even to regret sin and be sorrowful over sin. (2 Cor. 7:10) 2 Cor 7:10 For the sorrow that is according to {the will} {of} God produces a repentance without regret, {leading} to salvation, but the sorrow of the world produces death. 3) One must have godly sorrow, a realization he/she has sinned against God. 4) This godly sorrow must lead to repentance. (2 Cor. 7:10). c. The third beatitude reads, “Blessed are the gentle, for they shall inherit the earth.” (Matt. 5:5). 1) It stresses this mourning [godly sorrow] will lead one to be humbly submissive to God and to be gentle to others.

  • Entertaining Angels: Hospitality in Luke and Acts by Andrew Arter B U R Y
    20 Copyright © 2007 Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University Entertaining Angels: Hospitality in Luke and Acts BY ANDREW ARTER B URY In Luke’s writings the ancient practice of hospitality—the custom of welcoming travelers or strangers into one’s home and establishing relationships with them—becomes the prism through which Jesus’ disciples can view one another and others as valuable children of God. oday we think of hospitality as the custom of feeding family, friends, and neighbors in our homes or hosting these people for a night or Ttwo. The writers of the New Testament, however, were working with a significantly different definition of hospitality or xenia. The ancient custom of hospitality revolved around the practice of welcoming strangers or trav- elers into one’s home while promising to provide them with provisions and protection.1 Hospitality in the first century could be a very risky venture, just as tak- ing strangers into one’s home is a dangerous decision in many corners of the world today. Nevertheless, in the books of Luke and Acts we see an appeal for Jesus’ disciples to practice hospitality in their lives and ministries. ANCIENT HOSPIT A LITY Strangers who were traveling in a new region did not always find a hos- pitable reception in antiquity. For starters, they were easy prey for thieves and robbers who trolled the roadways in sparsely populated areas. Further- more, many townspeople saw mysterious strangers as threats and therefore sought to shun, abuse, or eliminate these outsiders before they could harm the community. Recall, for instance, how the men of Sodom (Genesis 19:1- 11) and the men of Gibeah (Judges 19:14-26) wanted to take advantage of strangers and selfishly abuse them in violent ways.

  • The Weekly Word Happy Valentine's Week. Remember God Loves You
    The Weekly Word February 11-17, 2019 Happy Valentine’s week. Remember God loves you! Happy reading… Grace and Peace, Bill To hear the Bible read click this link… http://www.biblegateway.com/resources/audio/. Monday, February 11: Luke 8- What yield is my life producing?… I found myself musing over the parable of the sower and its explanation. First the parable itself: “A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path; it was trampled on, and the birds ate it up. Some fell on rocky ground, and when it came up, the plants withered because they had no moisture. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up with it and choked the plants. Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown.” When he said this, he called out, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear” (5-8). Now the explanation: “This is the meaning of the parable: The seed is the word of God. Those along the path are the ones who hear, and then the devil comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not believe and be saved. Those on the rocky ground are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in the time of testing they fall away. The seed that fell among thorns stands for those who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by life’s worries, riches and pleasures, and they do not mature.
