Have you ever read the Bible? There are lots of stories how God, Himself went ahead of the Jews into battle.

True. But have you read the story of David? He had already been annointed to become king of Israel, but he refused to touch King Saul, who he was to replace, because he had also been appointed to be king. The NT says that we are to respect leaders and the Word doesn't differentiate between good and bad ones. IOW, no leader is in place without God's allowing him to be there. If a leader has gone bad, it's God's business how to deal with him. Not man's. Robertson is WAY off base here.

God uses man all the time to bring forth His will. It was God's will that David took out Goliath. And it had to be David who did it because David gave all the glory to God.

Yeah, I guess you're right. Kinda like ya'll have left judging Robertson to God, huh?

You are against the war in Iraq to remove Saddam, then?

You must be if you do not believe it the responsibility of man to act as God's agents in this world.
