"C.S. Lewis and unknown prophet..thoughts on the Last Battle"

 
Dear Doves,
 
Wow I have just completed reading the series the Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, worth reading, worth seeing all of the movies that Disney has put out about this great series of books. Now I am 32 and this is my first time reading the series, only longing to do so after watching the movies, there is another coming out in December, the Voyage of the Dawn Treader please support this film especially since Disney dropped the series as not being profitable enough.  I hope to get the word out so Disney will look like fools for dropping this movie. This movie is all about our wonderful savior Jesus Christ and Lewis has an incredible way of getting the gospel message through symbolically in a way that makes a believer in Christ long for Jesus ever more deeply and heaven with all the more sweet longing. Now with  all of that being said having just finished 'The Last Battle," I want to make a bold observation about this book and Lewis, I feel based on current events Lewis, operated in the prophetic gifts of the Holy Spirit even though it is likely he was not aware that he did. IF Obama turns out to be a major end time character then the portrait that Lewis portrays in the last days is eerily too similar to our current situation in the world.
 
 
Please think of the last book of Narnia series as a dream that you are trying to interpret and then you will see how the symbolism plays out into what I am about to state.
 
Now to the Last Battle, in this book Lewis is setting the stage for the last epic battle of Narnia. Aslan ( A Great and wonderful lion) the character of his story that is symbolic of Jesus the Christ has not been seen for many ages and the people of Narnia are so longing for him to appear but of course he has been long in coming . The story begins with an Ape and a donkey at peace together in the wilderness and out of Nowhere flowing down from a waterfall into the river in front of them comes the skin of a lion. The lion skin was nothing compared to the greatness of the real Aslan but was nothing more then a normal wild lion's skin a hunter has killed. The Ape convinces the donkey to put on the skin of the lion and parade around Narnia like Aslan, the Ape will do all of the speaking for the Donkey. The Ape lords over the donkey his intelligence, the ape lord's over everyone actually his intelligence and that they are all to stupid in Narnia to know what they need. This is how he manipulates the donkey into doing his will.
 
Before I go on I must state most emphatically I am not a racist, prejudiced person in any way but the statement I am about to make is going to appear that way and I assure you that I am not.
 
 
The first prophetic symbolism from this book: In the last days a donkey will rise to assume the role of Christ but be completely deficient in doing so and only leading people's attention away from the true Jesus Christ. The donkey is the democratic party-in the guise of the will of the people, service to the poor, welfare..etc.
The ape will control the donkey and use it for his own agenda. ( I am sorry to put this in this form) the Ape is Obama, because he lord's his intelligence over the donkey and his superiority over it as well. This of course is happening Obama is always telling all of us how we do not know well enough for our own good what is good for us and to essentially just shut up and let him rule. It is important to note the ape in the beginning is a false follower of Aslan. I do not mean to imply that the Ape is Obama because he is African-American, this is not what I am saying it is the position of the Ape in the story I am referring to. This is why I must state again I am not a prejudice person and I in no way want or intend to offend anyone.
 
Going on the Ape uses the donkey dressed as Aslan to get the true followers of Aslan, to bow down to the ways of the Ape in the name of the Aslan. He pretends to be a follower of Aslan, He uses Aslan's own word's and the belief of the people into questioning all they have ever known to be true of Aslan's character.  I see the symbolism here to how Obama manipulated many Christians with their own beliefs into voting for Obama. How he is using the name of Jesus to keep believers blind to his true character, so in essence like the donkey Obama is putting on the false skin of Christ. The Ape keeps the donkey hidden in a stable only to bring out the donkey in the the fake lion skin when it benefits the ape to do so but he keeps the true followers of Aslan far enough away that they can not tell it is a donkey in a lion's skin.  I feel this too is symbolic of how Obama uses the name of Christ  and the guise of being a believer only when it benefits him to do so, and by doing so continues to keep Christian's who do not know their Bible that well at bay from rising up against him.
 
Now the Ape in the story intended the whole time to bring in the reign of Tash the demon bird like God of the Caloremen.  Though truthfully the Ape did not believe in the God of Tash either but longed for the military power and prestige allegiance with the Caloremen would bring him. The Caloremen in the story are dark skinned men, who wear turbans, carry spears and Schmintar swords like Arabs do.  I believe with all of my heart these fictional characters are symbolic of Muslims. In the Chronicles of Narnia these men are rising up to power the same time as the great kings of Narnia are but ,in their own land a desert land however, their heart is to conquer all of Narnia and to make all Narnia's hate the name of Aslan as they do. ( The prophetic symbolism here is that the Muslims would rise to power at the same time Christians were.)The Caloremen come in peaceably next to the Narnians under the name and guise of the false Aslan. In the same way Muslims are coming in peaceably and setting up their battle fronts under Obama and the doctrine of tolerance and equality. The Narnians are blind to this though the Caloremen come in hiding their weapons of war. Now enters into the story a talking cat of Narnia called Ginger and the Caloremen leader the Tarkaan, this I believe is a symbolic form of a Muslim Iman.  The cat and the Tarkaan, have no true allegiance to any  God and they too hold only to the belief in themselves. However, realizing that they can use the ape to gain power they continue to let the Ape deceive the people using the donkey.This is where the cat cleverly convinces the people of Narnia that the god known as Tash and Aslan are one in the same god and the people are now calling upon the great Tashlan (combination of the two.) Well all of this worship of the God Tash calls up this true demon bird like God Tash, into this little stable the Donkey used to be in. ( The Stable is symbolic of the manger in the actual story.)  The stable is left empty the donkey was stolen by the true King of Narnia Tirian and his  two friends that are a daughter of eve , Jill and a son of Adam., Eustace.)
 
Prophetic symbolism, there will be a woman that rises up the same time the Ape does. I feel right now the cat could be symbolic of Hilary Clinton, who will very cleverly use the arrogance of Obama to bring in a form of worship to a new god -a god who is all gods in one. Possibly Allah or some other name. (This makes me ask myself the question is Hilary in anyway going to fulfill the woman who rides the beast of Revelation? I realize right now that does not appear to be true but time could change this.) She will stand beside Obama only as long as it benefits her using him to deceive the people long enough to believe in anything that is presented. For she longs for the power of leadership, power she can only achieve by aligning herself with the Iman. Look for Hilary then to do just that with some Muslim leader other than Obama.  Now there should also be then a Muslim Iman who is coming in peaceably as well, who is aligning himself with both Obama and Hilary at some point. But who will militarily take over the whole world, the true anti-Christ who causes all both great and small to take the mark. Obama then is the false prophet, and the Iman to come is the antichrist.  The story ends in an epic battle between good and evil.  The followers of Tash are ultimately killed by the very God they never thought truly existed in the first place.
 
Is Obama the Antichrist, I am not sure, I thought I was for awhile but the truth is time is the one reason I do not think he is, he has had too much time now without enough signs actually pointing to the fact he is the Antichrist. However he is without a doubt a forerunner for the Muslims that is obvious. It is likely then we are looking for another but who knows. Ultimately this is all just thoughts I am having and either way I stand amazed at how God gets his word out, and keeps it in us.
 
 
As a matter of setting  further example I would like to speak for just a moment about the Left Behind  Series authored by Jerry Jenkins and Tim LaHaye. When Obama first stepped on the scene many Christians began to notice an uncanny likeness between the fictional antichrist character of Nicolae Carpathia and Obama. The setting of the story of all places starts in Chicago, the fictional character is named the sexy man alive by people and Forbes, comes out of no where with literally a small group of political advisors behind him, and in the story they are financiers that give him such the power. Obama is fitting this to a tee, in the story when the media got too close to Nicolae, he had them killed. I remember when Obama took over New York I think about a year or so ago and had the whole block shut down if the media got too close they were harassed and thrown in jail. There are other things here or there that seem to keep ligning up with that book. Now I do not think Jerry Jenkins knew at the time he penned that character he was operating in the prophetic gift but if Obama is the AC, then I personally believe he was.  This would be nothing more then God's mercy to get the truth that was about to hit us in the face, in our spirits so we would be able to recognize the times and seasons we are in.
 
 
Thanks for your time.
