Under the anointing that God gave Samson, there is no telling how many of another country that he killed.

God is a MAN OF WAR. In RIGHTEOUSNESS doth he MAKE WAR.
Oh yeah - absolutely!

That is right D.T. and Felicity.

Look at the awful blood shed and gore that was carried out by those under the command of Saul at the the command of Samuel, the Prophet. Saul disobeyed God because he spared a fine looking king and the best of the flock.

Samuel seeing the disobedience took Saul's own sword and hacked down a defenseless man, Agag the king, and stripped Saul's kingdom from him for his disobedience for not killing all.

God is a MAN of War because he is RIGHTEOUS.

Yet, I believe that America has involved herself in a number of UNrighteous wars for which we will pay the price. I do not believe the war in Iraq is a rightreous war. I hope I am wrong. If not, we are going to pay dearly for it.

For our own unrighteous wars, we are going to see war right here on our own soil. There is a price to pay for unrighteousness.

Sister Esther,

I noted that I hope that I am wrong. I sincerely mean it. I hope, I hope that I am wrong about my estimation concerning the righteousness of this war. We were never attacked by Iraq. The people of Iraq had exactly the kind of government that they've had for thousands of years. It will be the exact same kind of government that will return to long after we are gone. Though a monster, Sadaam had everything under absolute control there. Though the people lived in fear of him, they would have it no other way.

Prolonged democracy in Iraq will end up as civil war in the end, after we are gone.

Amen. Let us hope, pray and remember what our children and grandchildren are going to face except God rules in the affairs of men.

How ironic.. Right after reading through this thread I recieve a text from a church friend requesting prayer for the family of one of her friends who was killed in Iraq today. The young man left a young widow and a fatherless baby. How sad.
