But the whole thing was utterly ridiculous. The kid was just repeating things that he'd heard and everyone kept telling him how anointed he was.
Things like that can ruin a child. Too much promotion too early is dangerous.
You and Eddie are just jealous that none of your children were preaching at age four!!!!!!!!

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

It is very sad and pitiful that these children are being used by parents for a performance.

I hope the child does Not grow up feeling mimickery is something to be applauded, and turns into a mimick alone, losing out on the reality of the workings of God's Spirit. A person can get quite adept at the appearances of God moving, especially with a head start that this child has! You know, shout the right way and look the part, with actual emptiness within.
