Bible Teacher Shares Christ With Arafat
http://www.mcjonline.com/news/03a/20031202b.shtml

<snip>

"( CNS) -- An American Bible teacher recently shared Christ with Yasser Arafat - the second time R.T. Kendall has witnessed to the Palestinian leader in the last year. On Nov. 20, Kendall, an internationally known speaker and author, met with the 74-year-old Palestinian president at Arafat's compound in the West Bank town of Ramallah.

"Rais , there is something I want you to think about," Kendall, minister at famed Westminster Chapel in London for 25 years until his retirement last year, recalled telling Arafat.

"It has been revealed to me that Jesus Christ is very important to you." Arafat reportedly replied: "Very, very important."

"Whether I did any good on my two visits to this torn, frail but unusual leader, I don't know," said Kendall, whose meetings with Arafat were arranged by the Rev. Andrew White, a canon of the Coventry Cathedral in England and archbishop of Canterbury's envoy to the Middle East. "I only know I never tried so hard in all my life to lead a person to Jesus Christ."


"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity." - Anne Coulter.

2. Reality is better than anything you could just think up.
I hope he converts. That would be even better.
