Democracy in Pakistan

With all the turmoil going on and the world leaders demanding Democracy be re instituted in Pakistan it got me thinking of the opposition parties. They are fueled by Radical Islam many of them...Democracy can actually put them in power. Kind of an odd catch 22

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Yeah, sounds like the same drumbeat as in Gaza and the West Bank. Democracy removes the controlling power and put the wack jobs in power. It is definitely an odd catch 22.

Democracy only works for a people that have foundations of righteousness. It is a scary world we live in, however I am confident that God is not wringing His nail scarred hands.

Pakistan is almost as scary as Iran when it comes to nuclear weapons. Iran has the nut job in power now but no nukes yet while Pakistan has a moderate in power but has both nuclear weapons and a powerful militant Islamic segment of the country that could take power at any time.
