Sudan: Rebels agree to ceasefire

Rebels in Sudan have agreed to a ceasefire proposed by the U.S. and Arab nations. The Rapid Support Forces paramilitary group recently captured the city of El Fasher but likely cannot conquer Sudan outright: Its ceasefire agreement on Thursday appears to be an attempt to consolidate its gains and establish independence from the Sudanese government. Several nations have pushed for a peace deal that keeps the country unified, but the U.S. is pushing for a quicker solution, apparently to the point of allowing the Rapid Support Forces, one of the most heinously brutal armed groups in the world, to establish its own government over people it is trying to eliminate. If there really is a loving, all-powerful God in control of world events, why is He letting this happen? Read the inspiring answer in Chapter 4 of Mystery of the Ages, by Herbert W. Armstrong.
