God won't bless an Anti-Christ. Kony's actions clearly depicts someone sent from Satan. God would never send a terrorist murderer to do God's work. One will be judged by the fruit that one produces, and Kony’s fruit is murder, chaos and fear. How does that compare with the 10 Commandments that he apparently want Uganda ruled by?

He won't end the war.
He's done this so many times.
He says he will, sets up a location and doesn't show up.
It's happened over 63 times.
Who knows when this will end.
