An Example of an anti-Christ

Again, speaking of someone that is an anti-Christ, as opposed to the Anti-Christ. The Blaze recently reported that Chris Hedges, and author and former New York Times writer, compared Obama's former minister, Jeremiah Wright, to Christ in a speech he was giving. The story goes on to note:
Hedges also referenced a former Wright sermon, repeating the assertion that Jesus was persecuted and eventually killed by white Romans:
“The Romans, who Dr. Wright correctly reminds us were white — it was Jesus who was a person of color — don’t like preachers any more today than they did two-thousand years ago.”
 Notice the bit of truth--Christ being killed by the Romans--followed by a false hood, which in this case is that Christ was "a person of color." Not only is this false, but it in fact is a rejection of a substantial and important doctrine in the Bible--that the Messiah was Jewish and would be a descendent of the Davidic line (which Jesus was through Mary). In other words, Hedges and Wright are replacing the actual Christ with a fake one, which is the essence of the term anti-Christ.

We also shouldn't ignore the premise of the whole statement, as well, which is to compare whites to the first century Romans and, by implication, assert that Caucasians hate Christ.
