Act 4:10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
Act 4:11 This is the stone which was set at naught of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
Act 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Fundy, this is a secular viewpoint. The fact that they are all "religious leaders" means believers don't follow them anyway.

Hi Graceismine,

I think you are missing the point of my post. I understand that Chistians do not follow these people, and I understand that it is just a list thrown together by secular journalist's.

I was simply using some scripture to highlight the folly of those religious leaders who think they have any real power.

I love seeing how often scripture can be applied to a situation or event in the world. It really is God saying " dont worry I AM in control".

Oh, and its nice to see that the far eastern states of Oz have the internet!

What it takes to be a leader in the secular world eyes is what one is doing for worldly peace... unity... and some other stuff as well... as long it's not about John 14:6...

The Pope

An antiChrist.

Archbishop of Canterbury
Dr Rowan Williams

Arch-druid and anti-fundamentalist

Dalai Lama

Grand Ayatollah Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah A leading figure of Shi'a Islam.
Grand Ayatollah Ali Sistani as the leading authority in Shi'a Islam

Followers of a demonic 'moon-god'

Claims to powers of prophecy and gifts of healing are marks of this denomination.

Healing? The death-rate is still one-a-piece! (J.C.O'Hair). God can and does still heal, however, by the time Paul wrote 2 Timothy, the gift of healing (through a human agent) had ceased. And what need of 'prophecy'? We have God's complete revelation, the Bible.

Joginder Singh Vedanti

Christ rejecter.

Adolfo Nicolas leader of the Society of Jesus

A Jesuit anti-Christ. He'd be well-pleased with the Modern Versions. Insidious blight on nations and violent pro-Rome agenda. Assassins and murderers.

These are whom the world considers 'great'. As for me (and I hope all of us):
"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" 1 Timothy 2:5
