When I observe people who appear to feel they are "on a mission", I try to figure out who signed their orders by observing and analyzing what they do and how, along with what they leave behind.

Then, I compare my observations to the Original Template for similarities, discrepancies, etc. In other words, which Biblical character(s) do they make me think of when I watch them in action.

For the record, I'm a non-denominational, low info Christian who is attempting to avoid becoming "denominationally damaged" while seeking the Truth.
