    So I see this while driving to the post office yesterday. Took a quick photo and hoped that I could zoom in and crop it so it was readable. It was but the sign on the driver's side of the window was not perfectly legible. (I've altered the license plate to keep the person anonymous.)

    But then this person turned into the post office and pulled up into an open parking space. The spot behind her was open, so why not? Got a good, clear picture of her message to the world.

    I'm of the belief that this sort of "witnessing" is not effective, and actually a detriment to evangelism efforts everywhere.

    No question, a witness tool. While I would not agree with everything posted, I will give them credit for not being an undercover Christian, and extra points for not being politically correct.

    ;)


    God bless.

    I'm all for ignoring political correctness, but the whole Obama is the antichrist is over the top and a hindrance.

    I mean, I've read Revelation, and don't remember the antichrist fading into relative obscurity after two terms.

    I don't remember RFID chips mentioned in Revelation, and they've faded into relative obscurity.

    I guess that ITL is not the only one on BB who lives in Minnesota. *laugh*

    Reminds me of a pickup-truck that I saw a few years ago. The tail gate and back of his cap was filled with expressions of dissatisfaction against the maker of his vehicle. Evidently he did not get good service. Wish I had a picture.

    We still use RFID at work a lot.

    But it's obvious to anyone that EMV chips are the mark of the beast. :eek:

    I would agree, but, it may be a little early to put him as fading into obscurity. There has been talk of a position at the U.N. That is a suitable platform for Antichrist to work his way up the ranks.


    God bless.

    If so, Obama's in for a nasty head wound. Rev 13:3, 12, 14

    Well, we do see figurative language employed. A possible scenario I have entertained is that the wound is actually a political wound/death, and that the recovery fits with his assumption of control in totality. It could be a matter of assuming a position of leadership, losing that position, and then taking it back by force. With the uproar that was predicted and now playing out concerning our recent election (which seems to be business as usual for elections for many years), a scenario where a President is forced to stay in power for whatever reason we could think of is not something I see as an impossibility.

    I view Antichrist to be a political figure well liked by the world. Obama fits that description, and while I would not say he is, I would also say that it is not, still, beyond the realm of possibility.


    God bless.
