Reps: 1,811 (power: 7) | | | I have no idea what's happening, but from the various reports I've had it is a good idea to be cautious of what you read in newspapers. Even assuming the man named is actually being held and has been charged, there may be other circumstances of which we are rightly unaware, the details being none of our business.
What we know is that people are hurting, a family is left devastated and needing our prayers, and the army leaders have a difficult situation to deal with.
May God have mercy on all involved and specially surround his family with loving kindness.
Warmest blessings

Religion today is not transforming people; rather it is being transformed by the people. It is not raising the moral level of society; it is descending to society's own level, and congratulating itself that it has scored a victory because society is smilingly accepting its surrender. --A.

Very wise. It is early days, and in countries were there is intolerance to the Gospel, things can be blurred.

Reps: 9,760 (power: 0) | | | We prayed for that very thing week before last. For us it has an even more sinister ring...
They have been warning South African parents to keep careful watch over their children, ... especially girls, as they are talking of a certain "requirement" number of prostitutes for the 2010 Soccer World Cup in South Africa...
The reason:... they abduct them, train them up, and in 3 years time they are ready for "service".
Heartbreaking. |
