http://bible.cc/daniel/9-27.htm - And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.


Dear John & Doves:

Unless one considers Chicago the bottomless pit I really can't see President Obama fulfilling the Revelation 17 verse 8 prophecy. The second reference is also a case of cognitive dissonance if one tries to impute President Obama as the one who is doing the confirming.

In the midst of the week he causes the sacrifice and oblation to cease. Where are these occurring.  Did President Obama and the U.S. Congress sneak in a new department called the Department of Rituals. And then in April 2012 he is going to withdraw these regulations?  Where were these rituals taking place.

I am under the impression that a Jewish temple needs to be built in order for these things to begin and then cease but perhaps I am taking the Scriptures too literally and God needs some help expressing Himself.

While doing research on this issue I saw a statistic that said 25% of the U.S. Republicans think that President Obama may be the AC. Here is the Google search link
