Pursuing Holiness

I just received an email with what purported to be a column about Barack Obama by Ken Blackwell, a black columnist - emphasis on the “black” because that evidently lends it extra weight, at least as far as the original sender was concerned. It’s been forwarded to many people; if I were a spammer this would be pay dirt. The column was nothing remarkable - it’s evidently penned by a Hillary fan. But here’s what got me. At the foot of the email I found this little gem:

Remember–God is good, and is in time, on time–every time.

According to The Book of Revelations the anti-christ is:

The anti-christ will be a man, in his 40s, of MUSLIM descent, 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!

If you think I am crazy..Im sorry but I refuse to take a chance on the “unknown” candidate

I’m having a hard time expressing my feelings about this one without swearing.

To the person who originally wrote this and to any Christian who considers forwarding it with this ridiculous footer -

Just shut UP already. You’re embarrassing yourself. You’re embarrassing all of us with this nonsense. And that’s all it is, utter nonsense. Obama is many things but he is certainly not the anti-Christ. If you want to criticize the man, go to it. There are so many things in his record, so many things he’s said and done on the campaign trail that you will never lack for ammunition to fire at him.

But this email is a joke, and you are its punchline.
