    One of my friends's boyfriend sent this to me by way of e-mail & I was wondering what your thoughts on it was.

    Honest opinion?

    Some internet crazy who can't type or write proper English poses no threat.

    I haven't heard the line, but have heard similar in the anarchist youth, but seldom with the religious aspect - usually just anti government/society.

    Youth are impressionable, and like to spout what they hear if they like to feel good by putting others down.

    There are many many groups out there that love to talk, but most don't do much else. Then there are some that do act and act agressively and against all moral right in assuring everyone will one day agree with them even if they have to kill you to prove their point.

    Knowing the group and some net searching might turn up more info.

    Since he distinguishes between religion and churches, jesus etc. I'd guess maybe some extreme right wing cult. The rhetoric is quite cultish in my mind.

    Maybe just likes to hear himself/herself chatter ;)

    No way to really know from this.

    He's Pentacostal if that helps you out any exscentric.

    I agree with all of the above. It's a creepy pentecostal who's on the internet so much that his ability to spell has atrophied.

    Well, from what you all think about him from what he sent me. I would really appreciate it if you would pray for my friend that God would open her eyes about the man she is dating.

    Nah, Jr. High English.

    Seriously, he does sound like he may have serious spiritual problems. I'll pray right now for the Lord to protect your friend.

    It sounds somewhat reminiscent of Rousas John Rushdoony (Institutes of Biblical Law) and his reconstructionism.

    Basically, re-institute the Law of Moses as the Law of the Land including all the the death-penalties (for blasphemy and violating the Sabbath for instance).

    I diagnose Idealistic Teenage Male. It will wear off in a few years.

    If he's not a teenager I would be a little :eek:

    I agree with Petrel. Just a young loose cannon that will probably simmer down with maturity.

    It's sort of spooky, but he had to hear that from somewhere. I've been told that there is a movement, in some so-called Christian circles, that "force" is at the center of their gospel. Seems like someone called it "Joel's Army". Anyone have any info on this group?

    Clarification:I have not and did not say that CCM would send you to hell. What I did say was that I don't see why Christians are fashioning their music styles for CCM after the world's when the bible talks about not conforming to the world in Romans 12:2
