After you read the article below by Chuck Baldwin, ask yourself the
question, "Why aren't more Christians applying the standard that Jesus
Christ Himself gave to distinguish 'wolves' from 'sheep' : "Ye shall
know them by their fruits" (Matt. 7:16) ? Because many Christians once
again seem to want to "out-do" their Savior, and be "nicer than Jesus,"
they are failing to obey their Savior by failing to judge with
righteousness judgment (John 7:24).
The failure of the majority of Christians to judge rightly the fruit of
George W. Bush is taking us down the path of global socialism and the
new world order spoken of repeatedly by his father, former President
George H.W. Bush, Sr. during the period of the Gulf War:
September 11, 1990 televised address:
"Out of these troubled times, our fifth objective - a new world order -
can emerge... We are now in sight of a United Nations that performs as
envisioned by its founders"
January 7, 1991 interview in U.S. News & World Report:
"I think that what's at stake here is the new world order. What's at
stake here is whether we can have disputes peacefully resolved in the
future by a reinvigorated United Nations."
January 9, 1991 press conference:
"[The Gulf crisis] has to do with a new world order. And that new world
order is only going to be enhanced if this newly activated peacekeeping
function of the United Nations proves to be effective."
January 16, 1991 televised address:
"When we are successful, and we will be, we have a real chance at this
new world order, an order in which a credible United Nations canuse its
peacekeeping role to fulfill the promise and vision of the UN's founders."
August 1991 'National Security Strategy of the United States' issued by
the White House and personally signed by George Bush, Sr.:
"In the Gulf, we saw the United Nations playing the role dreamed of by
its founders... I hope history will record that the Gulf Crisis was the
crucible of the new world order."

In my opinion, the policies and practices of George W. Bush (his 'fruit'
as an elected official) has made him an enemy of your and your children's
family, faith, and freedom. Please church, wake up ! [only support
candidates for Congress who will co-sponsor the Right to Life Act
(H.R.2763) and the bill to get the U.S. out of the U.N. ! (H.R.1146)

Is Bush the Antichrist?
By Chuck Baldwin
April 12, 2002
During the eight years of Clinton's presidency, I was repeatedly asked,
"Chuck, do you think Bill Clinton is the antichrist?" (Of course, I answered
no.) Therefore, it is more than interesting to me that since G.W. Bush
became president no one has asked if I thought he was the antichrist. Not
one single person! Instead, many people attribute to Bush god-like
qualities, which actually makes him a better candidate than Clinton was.
You see, one of the chief characteristics of the coming antichrist is that
he appears "as an angel of light." Therefore, an obvious reprobate such as
Bill Clinton is immediately disqualified. The antichrist, by very
definition, is a master deceiver. He must be someone who appears as good and
benevolent. The bite is in his tail not in his tongue. In reality, Bush's
angelic persona makes him much more dangerous than bad boy Billy.
For example, while Clinton was in the process of appointing numerous
homosexual activists to his administration, copious letters from Christian
leaders such as Jerry Falwell, James Dobson, and D. James Kennedy flooded
America's Christian community. Appeals for protest and resistance were heard
from pulpits throughout the country. A massive media campaign began against
Clinton.
Today, however, President Bush is in the process of copying Clinton's
numerous appointments of open homosexuals to high positions of government,
but there are no letters, no warnings from pulpits, and no media campaigns
opposing it. Just the opposite. Bush is being defended, lauded, and
glorified for everything he does, no matter how unconstitutional or
unscriptural it might be.
When Clinton only talked of legalizing embryonic stem cell research, he was
castigated and condemned. Bush actually made the procedure legal, and yet,
he was praised and honored. Clinton was denigrated when he tried to convince
Israel to give up land for peace. Now, Bush is in the process of actually
trying to create an independent Palestinian state for Israel's enemies (with
Jerusalem as its capital, no less), yet continues to receive glowing
adulation. If Clinton even suggested that America's immigration laws might
need to be liberalized, he was denounced in the harshest terms; but Bush can
actually grant limited amnesty to thousands of illegal aliens, and there is
not the faintest whisper of protest.
Do you recall how Clinton was criticized for the "low lifes" he invited to
the White House? Well, Bush recently invited wild man rocker, Ozzie
Osbourne, to the White House. Have you heard any notable Christian leader
take Bush to task for that?
You remember Ozzie Osbourne, don't you? He is the former front man for the
heavy metal band, Black Sabbath. He is famous for stage antics such as
biting the heads off birds and bats. His abuse of drugs and alcohol are also
well known. Furthermore, Ozzie Osbourne desecrated The Alamo by pissing all
over it. In spite of this, George W. Bush is said to be one of Osbourne's
biggest fans. As such, Osbourne was recently invited to the White House for
dinner. Have you heard any criticism of Bush for this?
Obviously, I do not believe President Bush is the antichrist any more than I
believed Bill Clinton was. However, I do believe that Bush possesses more
deceptive qualities than Clinton did and, therefore, is more dangerous. I
also now understand more clearly how even "the elect" can be deceived. Bush'
s acceptance by the overwhelming majority of Christian people proves the
country is ready for the antichrist, whoever he is.
Thanks for the email, and thanks for listening.
