I have heard ten or so people testify of divine encounters in answer to their question about - is Obama the antichrist.
I was not asking if he spoke to other people, I asked if he told you!
Unless you are claiming that they cannot lie, you are merely adding layers of sinful men between you and your god.

The name of the horse Mohammed suposedly rode to heaven was named Barack.
In a play on the word- barack, and can be spelled barak in Hebrew means "blessed".
So when Jesus said "You shall not see me again until you say blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord"- this statement is a double prophecy.
First comes the false messiah -Barack who shall (future at this point) come to the Jews, then afterward, Jesus will come to the Jews- the real Messiah.
Jesus said,"I saw satan as lightening from heaven". In Hebrew, this would be: I saw satan as barack O (connecting element) bamah (heights or high place).
Rambling- I was considering about Galilee (the town Jesus was from) which is a large lake in Israel.
Then I thought about Chicago, also built on a large lake.
Jesus and Barack both lived against a large lake when the began their public ministry.
In Farsi, obama means, "He with us".
Contrast that with the prophecy about Jesus being called- Emanuel- "God with us".
Quote:To get some insight into these claims, TruthOrFiction.com contacted Dr. Tom Finley, Professor of Old Testament and Semitics and Chair, Old Testament and Semitics Department at Talbot Theological Seminary in La Mirada , California . Let’s look at them one at a time:
Dr. Finley says that most scholars agree that Jesus probably spoke and taught in Aramaic, but that there is debate on that topic.
He did point out that it is not accurate to say that “Aramaic is the most ancient form of Hebrew?” Not at all. According to Dr. Finley, Hebrew and Aramaic are two distinct languages, although closely related.
He confirmed that the word for lightning is indeed “baraq” in Hebrew. In Aramaic it’s “beraq.”
Dr. Finley said that in Hebrew "bama" means "back," "hill," or "high place, place of worship" (Hebrew and Aramaic Lexicon of the Old Testament). In Isaiah 14:14 the term refers to "the heights of the clouds" (KJV) or "the back of a cloud" (a Jewish translation called Tanakh) or "the tops of the clouds" (NRSV).
However, he said that the normal word for "heavens" in Hebrew is "shamayim," and that is the word used in Isaiah 14:12 ("How you are fallen from heaven.")
“Even if we granted that bama could mean "heaven" by itself (that is, without adding a word like "clouds" after it),” Dr. Finley said, “the combination that the video makes, "baraq u/o bama," could only mean "lightning and heaven," not "lightning from heaven" or "the heights").
Further, according to Dr. Finley, “What Jesus said in Luke 10:18 was, in the KJV, "Satan as lightning fall from heaven." If he spoke it in Aramaic, then "from heaven" should be "min shemayya." If Hebrew it should be "mehashamayim." It is impossible that he would have used "bama" for "heaven," whether in Hebrew or Aramaic. In Greek it is "ek tou ouranou." And of course this doesn't address how to account for "and" in the alleged name "baraq u/o bama."
Dr. Finley concluded, “Someone has been playing around with these languages in a rather silly way.”
