Manifesting teaches that the law of attraction governs life outcomes. According to this belief, whatever a person focuses on, speaks about, or visualizes will be drawn into their life.

Manifesting teaches that individuals can claim authority over their lives and outcomes through personal intention, thought, and declaration.

One of the most dangerous characteristics of false leadership is the refusal to speak against sin. Instead of exposing darkness they redefine it.

Most Christians approach this topic from one of three viewpoints. One group sees all the gifts mentioned in Romans 12, 1 Corinthians 12, Ephesians 4, and 1 Peter 4 as still operative today. Another group says that the more spectacular, so-called “sign” gifts (prophecy, tongues, healing) were given only for the beginning era of the church (people who hold this position are called “cessationists”).
