Faith means resting in what Christ has done for us in the past, but it also means hoping for what He will do for us in the future. (See Rom. Gal. Life Application Bible Notes Life Application Bible 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991 by Tyndale House Publishers, Wheaton, IL. 60189.

"At the time of that raid in Quetta the authorities were looking for Khalid Shaikh but he escaped and from there they followed him to Rawalpindi," the official said.

"They got information from the man they picked up in Quetta and from phone calls 1 until they tracked him down to Rawalpindi." Senior government officials said the three men were arrested about 3 a.m. local time Saturday at a house where Qadoos lives with his father. But Omar Qadoos, Ahmed's cousin, said only Ahmed, his wife and two children were in the house. There also was a guard outside, he said. "The police pounded on the gate and then they rushed through.

There was some firing, but no one was hurt and then they beat the guard and broke the lock on the front door," Omar Qadoos said. He said police held the family at gunpoint while they collected cassettes, a computer and computer discs, leaving the floor littered with clothes, papers and other items. Mohammed's ties to terrorism are deep. He is the uncle of convicted 1993 World Trade Center conspirator Ramzi Yousef and one of his older brothers also belongs to al-Qaida. Another brother died in Pakistan when a bomb he was making exploded.

He also is said to be close to bin Laden's son, Saad. In Washington, the FBI refused to confirm Mohammed was arrested or say whether the bureau was involved. President Gen. Pervez Musharraf has said a small number of FBI agents are in Pakistan but only to provide intelligence on al-Qaida or Taliban fugitives from neighboring Afghanistan. However, Pakistani police and intelligence officials say FBI agents have been involved in nearly every important terror arrest in Pakistan.

The Pakistani government says it has handed over more than 420 al-Qaida and Taliban suspects to the United States. Until now, the biggest catch was the arrest last March of alQaida's suspected financier, Abu Zubaydah, who was taken into custody in a raid in the central Pakistani city of Faisalabad.
