The Global Czar!

OK, not trying to be unkind but I saw this book recommended for me at Amazon and had to read the description. The book is Can America Survive?: 10 Prophetic Signs That We Are The Terminal Generation by John Hagee and the product description was just too funny to not pass on:

Carefully documented facts and powerful biblical teaching are the basis for the provocative claims and predictions outlined in this riveting book. A personal friend of Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu, Hagee shares a frightening conversation he had with Netanyahu regarding the coalition of Russia and Iran in their nuclear efforts. Then in graphic detail Hagee describes the coming war in the Middle East, with Russia leading a massive Islamic army against Israel. While respectful of President Obama’s office, Hagee examines the administration’s implementation of Czars and the coming of a global Czar whom the Bible calls the Antichrist.

I know that is in the Bible somewhere, that the Antichrist will be a Federal appointee of a former Senator from Illinois who became President. Seriously, I thought Bill Clinton was the Antichrist. Or was it Hillary? Or Nancy Pelosi? Or was it James Carville (now that one I could believe)? Maybe we should worry more about proclaiming Christ to the world and caring for widows and orphans instead of trying to identify the Antichrist. I wonder what these folks will write about when Obama is out of office and the Russkies haven't invaded Israel yet? This is proof positive that the recommendation system at Amazon still needs lots of work.

What is not so funny is that a lot of people will read this and buy into it. On second thought, this is not funny at all.

That's easy. It's Nancy Pelosi.

American Christians tend to get caught up in American politics, and lose sight of their true national identity: the Kingdom. I live in America, but I am a follower of Christ first and foremost, and proud to be one of his "peculiar" people.
