Jun. 29, 2006 - God is moving in Iraq

I received this e-mail from my mom. God is doing amazing things in an area the enemy has long controlled.

FORMER IRAQI GENERAL REPORTS VIBRANT CHRISTIAN GROWTH IN IRAQ

Retired Iraqi Gen. Georges Sada reports more Iraqi Muslims becoming Christians than at any other time in the history of the country. Speaking at both a private dinner outside Washington, D.C., and at McLean Bible Church in northern Virginia on Monday, May 22, Sada shared stories about Saddam Hussein moving weapons of mass destruction to Syria in 2002, his personal refusal to execute U.S. and British prisoners of the first Gulf War, and stories of what God is doing today in Iraq.

Bestselling author Joel C. Rosenberg had met Sada previously while researching a book and instigated his speaking engagements. Rosenberg said, "Sada told me that some 5,000 Iraqis have publicly identified themselves as new followers of Christ since Iraq was liberated, and that an estimated eight out of 10 Iraqi believers say they converted because Jesus appeared to them in dreams or visions." Sada reported that the Kurds in northern Iraq are particularly receptive to Christ and are converting "by the hundreds."
