Creepy Stats

No sooner do I post on David Jeremiah’s book on the Economic Armageddon than I get back to back-to-back stats days of 665 and 775. That is pretty close to scary. It reminds me that Big Bird Might Just Be the AntiChrist! 🙂

Dan Wallace Dismantles the Obama Antichrist Video – Last Post on This

Dan Wallace posted an excellent piece dismantling the video previously mentioned here at KL. It is worth the read and is very thorough. I mentioned I was going to refute the video but since Dan did such a great job and mentioned several of the things I was going to mention (and then some) I will just refer you over to Parchment and Pen for his response. Here is the link.

Big Bird Might Just Be the AntiChrist

In light of the last post critiquing the ridiculous video about how Barack Obama is supposedly the antichrist, I thought I would construct a case for Big Bird being the antichrist.

1. I have never heard bigbird confess Jesus as Lord. That is the first telling sign that big bird might just be the antichrist (2 John 1:7)
2. Ephesians 2:2 clearly teaches that the forces of evil are related to the “ruler of the kingdom of the air.” Big bird, being a bird, fits that criteria nicely. My suspicion is growing.
3. As the video pointed out, birds were the very thing that came and plucked the gospel seed from the soil along the path (Luke 8:5)
4. The Hebrew word for treacherous, deceitful, faithless or wicked has the consonants b_g_d…sound familiar? It is eerily similar to bigbird (I will even toss in the strongs number just for fun – 898).
5. What is more? How tall is Big Bird? 8 feet 2 inches tall. If you go to the book of the Bible that we were just in, Luke and look at chapter 8 verse 2 what do you find? Evil spirits. What is more…you are just three verses away from the verse we just mentioned about the demonic connections and metaphor of birds with Satan himself.
6. Numerologically, there is not much that can be done. I will mention that DEVIL adds up to 52 and BIGBIRD adds up to 51. Close but no match. Not even a close match in Greek or Hebrew equivalents.
7. Hebrews 2:14 & 1 John 3:10 mention children and the devil in the same verse. Big Bird obviously had close associations with children.
8. Do you know who Big Bird’s parents are? Have you ever seen them or heard of them? Exactly.

I think this is just as convincing evidence as what we have for Barack Obama being the antichrist. So which is it? We report, you decide.

DISCLAIMER – Please don’t take this as anything more serious than a ridiculous satire of the aforementioned video.

Probably the Worst Exegesis I Have Ever Seen

It would take a lot of effort to come up with a worse exegesis than what is found in this youtube video. In it an anonymous person (obviously no biblical scholar) takes on one of the worst word studies I have ever seen. His attempt to prove Barack Obama as the antichrist in this video is something similar to trying to tie strings to moving cars on the freeway to show they are connected somehow. In either scenario one could expect serious damage to be done. At the end of the day it only makes Christians look like fools and does nothing to further any political or religious discussion in a positive or meaningful way. I am pretty sure I could just as easily promote the idea that big bird is the antichrist if I was willing to be this theologically uninformed or exegetically incompetent. I normally try hard not to be a basher but this one seems so exceptionally bad and does nothing except feed into unhealthy stereotypes about Christians.

More of a response to these ideas to come another time.
