The bible truly is a double-edged sword or in the King James Version, a twoedged sword. I think of a man; a well known minister that in my eyes has overstepped the ‘boundaries’ and gone from biblical to extra biblical teaching. There have been reports of false healings and prophesy.
Each scripture that comes to mind as to why this man could very well be a wolf in sheep’s clothing is the SAME scriptures that his followers use to defend his actions.
That is a twoedged sword indeed! I guess we let the chips fall where they will and let God separate the sheep from the goats as only he can do.

ManChild's Response
In all fairness, I did want to report that the founder of ManChild promptly responded with this: Thanks for the rebuke Dawn. I don't want to fight you.
Although I want to give him credit for being 'mature' enough not to say anything it does not alleviate my fears of the deception that is being played out.
Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. ~Matthew 24:23-27

Letter to the ManChild Founder
Dear ManChild Founder,
Who are you and what bible are you reading? I am posting other content on the internet letting folks know that you are theologically still gulping the 'milk' and drowning in your own righteous robes of religious fanaticism. You are spending too much money on all the advertising I am seeing on the internet to promote your jumbled message. Anyone that has read the bible, believer or not, can see that you have done a severe chop-job on your cut-n-paste of the scriptures to make it say whatever you are wanting for your agenda. This is truly sad. You are not even a wolf in sheep's clothing because your garments are see-through! You are like the emperor that thought he had new clothes... but everyone could see the truth in his nakedness.
I was on your page for the first time Saturday April 21, 2007 and when I came back the next day to do more research I noticed that some of the content had changed already. I anticipate before July 7, 2007 it will change forms many times to keep your agenda fresh and throw off as many unsuspecting people as possible.
I too, have asked others to pray... for you. That your eyes, ears and heart would be opened to the reality of the authentic Jesus Christ and not the fantastical one that you have created in your mind via the 'plucking' of useful scriptures out of context.
Sincerely,
Dawn *****

777 –Part 4!
Ok I couldn’t resist!!! I actually went back to the page and was stunned into seeing more!!!
“TRUST ME ANGELS WILL SING”
“The Chosen will come forrth from the Christian tribes for this cause. 777 For they have seals set in thier minds and souls to recognize This message.”
This person is a lunatic! He is caught up in his own religious robes of righteousness that he is tripping over himself!
Here is a picture of the man from his website. If you were to pray for anything, pray the scales would fall off his eyes, his ears and heart would be opened to the real gospel and that Jesus would become an authentic entity in his life as opposed to a fantastical creature to serve his own agenda.

777- Part 3
Why didn’t Satan show up last year at 666 or June 6, 2006?? Better yet June 6, 1006 or the year 6 when Jesus was 6 years old? Ok, so maybe he didn’t show up when Jesus was six because Jesus had to fulfill his mission and couldn’t die before he was 33 or something like that.
However, if one believes in this fanciful notion of playing the numbers game then last year would have been the most opportune time for Satan to have wreaked havoc on the world. NO?
I continue to peruse this website http://www.prayon777.com. I am not leery about what I might read. I am aghast!
“There will come three annointed Messiahs or Prophets in our day. Just like John the Baptist, Jesus the Christ, and Paul. These three are the greatest spirits that have ever lived because they all died for us. We will be great on thier acount. Be mighty in God our Father.”
“777 IS A WAVE SENT FROM HEAVEN --RIDE THE WAVE!”
It is clear that whomever did this writing is either un-schooled or does not know how to use a spell/grammar-check. They are coming off as possibly a new ‘believer’ in that they have their theology, time frames and references all jumbled.
I would venture to guess they are of the Charismatic persuasion or Word Faith Movement.
As much as I respect all that John and Paul were about, I would never dare to put them in the same league as Jesus Christ or intonate that they ALL died for me. Golly gee, except for Enoch and Elijah everybody died. What I thought was the basics of Christianity are that Jesus died to shed his blood for the remission of our sins. Paul and John just died; plain ol’ period.
At this point, I am going to discontinue making comments about this particular website. It is obvious that they are swirling in their own fanciful and spiritual delusions of what they want to happen or think they will make God do. I will however continue to do other research on Google based on this ‘777 phenomenon’ that is about to occur.
Stay tuned…

777- Part 2
“John the Baptist prepared the the people the first time and now this organization called, "the manchild team believe they are to stir up all Christianity so that the focus is on Jesus Christ's return. They say when this passion to be with the son is displayed to the Father he is very pleased and will show miraculous signs and answers to prayers.”
Ok, first thought is does this ‘manchild’ eat locust and honey? Just a silly thought! I didn’t claim to have all my sanity intact. Just a little humor to lighten this parody.
Where in the bible does it remotely say, ‘when this passion to be with the son is displayed to the Father he is very pleased and will show miraculous signs and answers to prayers’?
Shouldn’t our passion towards the son be everyday? Is that not what a relationship with Jesus is supposed to be all about? Is God the Father limited to showing miraculous signs and answering prayers if let us say, my passion for his son is waning today? If my passion is stronger tomorrow, will that empower the Father to work more miracles?
IS GOD RELIANT ON HUMANS TO BE… GOD?
Does this not put God at the mercy of the mere humans vs. us being at the mercy of an all-powerful God?
Who are we to limit God’s potential in this world based on our faith or lack of for the day?
But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. ~Matthew 13:32-33
If neither Christ nor the angels know when that day of his return is then how are we to ‘Trinity Lotto’ style, pick a day, oh hey, July 7, 2007 sounds spiritual, and expect to usher in ‘a rapture or second coming’?????
Stay tuned for more…..

777- Part 1
This is the beginning of a few blogs about this supposed spectacular event that will occur on ‘777’ or July, 7 2007. If you go to http://www.prayon777.com/ you can get more details. The premise is that on that day being that 666 is the devils number with all things bad included then 777 must be God’s number and all things good.
As I enter this page, I am stunned by so much that I don’t know where to begin. Since I am not a very smart and organized person that has the ability to take each paragraph and address it logically I will pluck the ones that seem to grab my attention first.
“Christians:- pray on saturday July 7 2007 with millions for the world's greatest prayer day.
Pray to be raptured, healed or for whatever is in your heart(the spirit will be eternally strong that day because of faith). Prayer works and this day will bless our world as millions speak in humble mighty prayer for what they desire in their hearts.”
My first thought that comes to mind is that if we are all praying for different things then we are not praying in one accord and are not in agreement. However, I guess according to Matthew 18:19 we only need two of us to agree on something.
My second thought is why would the spirit (little ‘s’) be eternally strong that particular day? If they are speaking of the third in the trinity, meaning the Holy Spirit then is the Spirit reliant upon a human’s faith to empower it? Mark 14:38 says the Spirit is truly ready but the flesh is weak. Romans 8:28 says the Spirit helps OUR infirmities. Does the Holy Spirit need our help? Is there a dependence upon mere humans in order for the Spirit to move upon this earth?
This is the BIG question. Similar to my Trinity Lotto blog, if some are praying for healing, some are praying for revival while others are praying for the rapture… then who’s prayer does God answer? Does he heal some, set a revival going in a few places then rapture only those that asked for it??
Obviously, my questions could go on and on. Call me a stupid person for not knowing the answers or call me extremely inquisitive, whichever.
The scripture that has continually come to mind in the past months of my inquisition to my beliefs is this: 1 Corinthian 1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty.
