I guess this original poster is just another typical 187 candidate: drop by, unload their magazine of ammunition, and steer the car around before someone can catch them.

All we can do is look at the bullets where they hit the walls, but we can't catch them, since they left as quickly as they came and chose to hide behind the mask of anonymity.

I wonder if the original poster is aware that this kind of tactics is sooooo common on this board, as well as other boards which are operated by "cult awareness" hosts, sites like thebereans.net (which offer a discussion on various new age religions which pretty much are all cults) experience this nearly daily.

But, even though I doubt the original poster will come back: this kind of thing is telling enough on how UBF educates people to be a Christian.
The real Christian will be willing to undersign with their name their each and every action, because they know that before the Lord's judgment throne, they will be held responsible anyway and they don't want to live differently before God and before man. Their life is one in harmony, where they bring to man the same respect (not worship) that they would bring to the Lord.
And it's very disrespectful to just drop a note anonymously and disappear in the dust again. How will the Lord judge such an action? Is this being a "messenger of Christ"?

Yes, we all make mistakes, and forgiveness is a precious gift - but we shouldn't insist on behaving contrary to God's word and then come DEMANDING forgiveness. We should strive to live in a fashion where we reduce the willfully wrong behaviour to a minimum, if not avoid it at all.

In Christ,
Mike K.
