On that day, a trumpet will be sounded and bodies dead will be joined with spirits in a re-union. *And there will be a final judgement of the quality of lives lived on earth and subsiquent punishment with absolute justice by God. The judgement of God will dark the sun and throw the stars down. Mt's will move and pregnant camels will be neglected. Savage beasts will musterd, and the seas set boiling..

All this will herald the judgement of God. *Interesting huh<G> -=A=- ===== *High MORALE is the Index of effective Leadership. --------------********+********-------------------- Morale raises belief of the Leader in the follower, of the follower in the Leader, of each in themself, and both in the .....cause! __________________________________________________ Terrorist Attacks on U.S. - How can you help?
