Saddam's execution. - Your thoughts,
Prosizz:
Interesting comments from all of you. There is one thing though that I am wondering about: How would the world and God Judge Saddam in the light that George Bush initiated a war on baseless accusations where thousands of innocents have died and are still dying (Americans as well as Iraqis).
eggi:
God will judge just. The world will not judge just. Even George Bush will not judge just (even though he has said that "Justice will be done."[1]. That is about it.

I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me. (Joh 5:30 KJV)

My thoughts on Saddam's execution,
Saddam got what he was supposed to get at the time appointed for him to get it. He ruled for the time appointed, he slaughtered for the time appointed, those he ruthlessly ruled and killed were all appointed to be ruled and killed accordingly to their time. We are here at the right time, not one second sooner or later, discussing, debating, what we 'think' should have been done, or how we feel about what took place, and why, but not being able to change what happened or what will happen, we find our selves here, along for the ride that God has planned for each of us.
Still, I found myself with compassion for Saddam when I found out the execution had taken place. I dont know why, I just felt sad. The look on his face, his countenance, was of a man who had been striped of his power and authority and all that he once was. It was one of a man that God chose to use, to show us all, one more time, that we are NOT in control and this is HIS BBQ.
Peace,
John
