'Antichrist' to preach in Guatemala

Juan Carlos Llorca / The Associated Press:
He calls himself the Antichrist, wears the number 666 tattooed on his arm and claims a following of 2 million people. And Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda is coming to Guatemala whether it wants him or not. The Central American country has banned the leader of the Florida-based Growing in Grace church, arguing he is a security risk because he provokes conflict with Roman Catholics and evangelicals. But Miranda still plans to fly in on a private jet Saturday to celebrate his 61st birthday and meet with thousands of followers from around the world. "It has been predestined and angels will make it happen. He is, after all, God himself," said Axel Poessy, Miranda's media director.
