SA>Hi Daryl,

Hi, Steve...

SA>Again, Jesus Christ will return at the time of God's choosing, to cut
SA>short the destruction of life and to rule the nations with a rod of
SA>iron. Nothing mankind can do will frustrate or prevent Christ's return.

  That is so assuring that God has always been, and always will be in
control of things...no matter what goes on. He either directs or allows
things to happen...even with heads of state (i.e. who is in power)...and
there is nothing mankind can do to change that.

SA>Moqtada al-Sadr is claiming that the Americans are collecting a dossier
SA>on the "Mahdi" to prevent his return, and this was a motive
for the US-led
SA>invasion of Iraq. al-Sadr's "Mahdi" is apparently quite
"puny", compared
SA>to Jesus Christ, if the Americans can "hijack the Mahdi's return".

  As the psalmist said "I can not imagine why you (the Lord) would want
to deal with 'puny man'". It's interesting to ponder how all these
"religious" people will react when they see "their religious
founder/prophet", etc. kneel before Jesus Christ...just what Satan
himself and his demons will do one day. And that includes all these
"self proclaimed Christs" (i.e. Jim Jones, David Koresh, etc.).
According to a tract on the Chick Publications website, the Muslim god
Allah is nothing more than a pagan deity from long ago.

Daryl
