Mr. Shipp doesn't want to be critical of Kenny's doctrine. I will then. The Copelands teach "Word Of Faith" theology. Space doesn't permit to get into lengthy detail of this aberrant doctrine. Suffice it to say "WOF" teaches that believers are "little gods," that we are to be healthy,very wealthy,and highly "anointed" beings. This is a damnable theology and I'd encourage people involved in it to leave it immediately!

that does sound scary, doesn't it?!!! healthy, wealthy, and anointed. we sure don't want that, do we? much better to be beggardly, sickly, and no spirit within. yeah. that sounds like something I could offer to others as the best life.
Forgive me Lord, for the jesting.

Just where in Scripture are people in general promised health, wealth, and prosperity? Solomon was given great wealth because he DIDN'T ask for it. Just how does this fit with the Health and Wealth Gospel? Job lost everything and sat in ashed and scratched at his skin with a pot shard because God took it all away. Of course GOD gave it back because Job was humbled and acknowledged God as sovereign. These televangelists are men and should be treated as such. They are just as fallen as anybody else and have no greater claim to God than the poorest believer anywhere.

Real funny! You are trampling on the countless martyrs who died for the Gospels sake! While clods like Copeland are living in extreme luxury! I'm not preaching a poverty Gospel. Nor am I endorsing heretic "little gods" like Copeland! Copeland is a false teacher and I think you should get away from his teaching as fast as possible! Copeland thinks we are as much the incarnation as Jesus! That is blasphemy!

No Anon, you and your ilk are scary! You WOFer's make me SICK! You people are the phoniest people going! Tell me, have you gotten fabulously wealthy? Ever go to the doctor? Why not look to the Apostles lives? All were martyred except for John! Kenneth Copeland lives a cushy lifestyle that rivals any Hollywood celebrity! You people have no concept of the trials Christians in the 3rd world go through! Yeah go ahead and jest! Keep following these pied pipers! They will get richer and you will keep getting poorer!

The KCM website still has an interview with the CEO of the ministry. He answers the questions brought up by the news broadcast.

People are thinking that they are saved under these ministries and nothing could be further from the truth. They are selling a fake Jesus, who they say wants you to be rich beyond your wildest dreams. All you have to do is send "god" your money (meaning the ministry) and god is going to be so pleased and happy with you that he's going to make you rich. Bible for that anyone??? It's not there!!

It is beyond me how anyone can't plainly see that Kenneth & Gloria Copeland are con artists. But then I sat under Hagee's church for 12 years believing the same crap! Thank God, He woke me up last Spring to the truth and I realized that the only one's getting filthy rich are the pimps, and they are doing it off the backs of the poor, widows and orphans....the very ones Jesus ministered to! Their greed knows no bounds.

RUN FROM THESE WOLVES IN SHEEPS CLOTHING! "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves" (Matthew 7:15).

I have always thought Copeland was a whiner! Now he really sounds like a whiner! They are just picking on me, making fun of me, make them stop. I hope they put this wolf out of business!!

Television is an illusion and thus not conducive to the truth. That includes Christianity and Journalism. That leaves us in a bit of a pickle. Maybe get off the couch and go to a real church where editing isn't quite so measured. Jesus was lucky that TV wasn't realized when he was on this earth. He would have been one of the first ones kicked off the island, via a torturous cross of course.

Christianity is an illusion and thus not conductive to the truth. Jesus has all the power of a butterfly fart ... but as Caesar said famously, "men willingly believe what they wish." Just tell people they are special, and they will open their checkbooks.

Think about it. If Jesus would knowingly countenance these people, he owes one hell of an apology to those nice money-changers....

It's been over 2 years since I left a WOF 'church' in MN where Copeland sits on the board. I attended for 4 years. Over the course of those 4 years I made $18,000 - $22,000. During that time I lost 10's of thousands of dollars and am still paying for it. My family has grown and I need a house (rather than our small apartment), but I will not qualify for a mortgage for many years because I have yet to pay off the debt incurred by giving to WOF ministries including Mac Hammond, Kenneth Copeland, Creflo Dollar, Jesse Duplantis and Oral Roberts.

i have watch these ministries since i was saved 27 years ago and i knew the first time i heard any of them, Jack hayford,cref dollar, copelands,joyce meyers,benny hinn,jim baker,almost everyone on TBN there were a bunch of deceivers

hey the only ones getting rich are the pastors it dosent work name it and claim it, they ask you to give all your money to them , if they were accountable and you could see there bank accounts you would see there lies,

I have an idea. If we all write or even campaign that if the "WOF" ministers would only "plant their seed" in our lives, then GOD will really bless them, and WE can all get out of our devilish poverty. How much better could it get for them for "saving" us all from our financial pressures and ushering us into the blessings of GOD. If their thinking is correct, then we will be blessed by them and GOD will fill them to overflowing. My guess is they will say, "That's not faith!" I say, "where is your faith? If you are doing GOD's will then He will bless you and you won't need faith in your followers giving." I think that this would shut them up or at least cause them to rethink what faith really is.

I have been praying for some time that the Lord would remove such people as the Copelands, Hagins, and Hinns of this world that are a shame and disgrace to His name. At last it appears that they are on the skids.

I would be very interested to hear from anyone who knows the Copelands personally, having worked with them, or been close to them. I am interested in how they are in private. I get the feeling that behind the scenes they are just the same as anyone in the street; like any sinner you could name, though not into anything obviously nasty. Anyone know them well? Contact me, please. (I am a minister myself, in the UK, and come across these people's work sometimes)

My uncle is a Mormon bishop, so I have been greatly affected by the Mormon church. But in the last 3 yrs I would say the WoF has surpassed Mormonism as the most detrimental to my life. I have a mood disorder from a head injury and take meds. I have always had WoF’ers say I am not a real Christian because I don’t have enough faith to be healed. But this is just minor compared to what has transpired over the last 3 yrs.

A guy moved in next door to me and we became friends. For 3 yrs he was a great guy. He was on parole and when he got off he started drinking, drugging and stealing. He has totaled 6 vehicles and been in jail 8 times in 3 yrs. He takes 50-60 pain pills a day. And lies about it constantly. When I try to warn him that he is flirting with disaster,,, he just says “don’t speak bad things into my life “. I had to ask him to examine himself to see if he was really in the faith..

So then my friend got shot 3 times. He is paralyzed from the chest down. He stole drugs from a guy and they shot him and his cousin. But they lied and played it off as a case of road rage. But the truth came out. He still says others are speaking bad things into his life, that is why his life stinks. But I tell him people can say “them pills are going to ruin you” continually, over and over, but as long as he does not take a pill, bad things won’t happen.

SO NOW HE THINKS GOD WILL HEAL HIM, he is memorizing “healing scriptures”. Of course God can only heal him if EVERYONE speaks positively.

When my friend got shot he crashed into a cemetery. And he has a tattoo of a cross with his brother‘s (who committed suicide) name on it. The bullet went right through the center part of the cross. BUT BECAUSE OF THE WORD OF FAITH TEACHING,,, and HIS ITCHING EARS,,,, he cannot see.

The WoF is demonic and very very dangerous. It is nothing more that occultic witchcraft in the church. Preparing the way for the anti-Christ and the great delusion that God will send upon the world and the believers who think they have NO NEED FOR ANYTHING, yet are naked and poor in the things of God
