Kenneth Copeland : “You don’t think earth was first, do you? Huh? Well, you don’t think that God made man in His image, and then made earth in some other image? There is not anything under this whole sun that’s new. Are you hearing what I’m saying? This is all a copy. It’s a copy of home. It’s a copy of the Mother Planet. Where God lives, He made a little one just like His and put us on it.” (“Following the Faith of Abraham I” [Fort Worth, TX: Kenneth Copeland Ministries, 1989], audiotape #01-3001, side 1.) Kenneth Copeland : “I was shocked when I found out who the biggest failure in the Bible actually is….The biggest one is God….I mean, He lost His top-ranking, most anointed angel; the first man He ever created; the first woman He ever created; the whole earth and all the Fullness therein; a third of the angels, at least–that’s a big loss, man. . . . Now, the reason you don’t think of God as a failure is He never said He’s a failure. And you’re not a failure till you say you’re one.” (“Praise-a-Thon” program on TBN [April 1988].)
Benny Hinn : “He [the Holy Spirit] says. ‘God’s original plan is that the woman was to bring forth children out of her side.’. . .Adam gave birth to his wife out of his side. It was sin that turned the thing around. . . . And it was sin that transformed her flesh and her body. When God took the woman out of man, He closed up his rib. But she was created identically as him. In other words, she was created with an opening in her side, and children were supposed to be born. And I get that from the very fact that you’ll never see birth spiritually, except from the side.” (“Our Position In Christ #5–An Heir of God” [Orlando, FL: Orlando Christian Center, 1990], audiotape #A031190-5, side 2.)
Fred Price : “If you keep talking death, that is what you are going to have. If you keep talking sickness and disease, that is what you are going to have, because you are going to create the reality of them with your own mouth. That is a divine law.” (Fred Price, Realm, 29).
Kenneth Copeland : “The force of faith is released by words. Faith-filled words put the law of the Spirit of life into operation. (The Force of Faith, Kenneth Copeland, Ft. Worth: Kenneth Copeland Publications, 1983).
Kenneth Copeland : “What you are saying is exactly what you are getting now. If you are living in poverty and lack and want, change what you are saying…. The powerful force of the spiritual world that creates the circumstances around us is controlled by the words of the mouth.” (The Laws of Prosperity, Kenneth Copeland, Ft. Worth: Kenneth Copeland Publications, 1974).
Kenneth Copeland : “God had no avenue of lasting faith or moving in the earth. He had to have covenant with somebody. . . . He had to be invited in, in other words, or He couldn’t come. God is on the outside looking in. In order to have any say so in the earth, He’s gonna have to be in agreement with a man here.” (“God’s Covenants With Man II” [Fort Worth, TX: Kenneth Copeland Ministries, 1985], audiotape #01-4404, side 1.)
Frederick K.C. Price : “God can’t do anything in this earth realm except what we, the body of Christ, allow Him to do. Now that statement is so–that’s so–that’s so foreign and so contrary to tradition that, like I said, if they could get their hands on me right now most evangelicals would burn me at the stake and dismember me and feed me to the crocodiles, because they’ll consider that statement to be just heresy.” (“Ever Increasing Faith” program on TBN [1 May 1992], audiotape #PR11.) Cf. chapter 6, 85.
Frederick K.C. Price : “The whole point is I’m trying to get you to see–to get you out of this malaise of thinking that Jesus and the disciples were poor and then relating that to you- thinking that you, as a child of God, have to follow Jesus. The Bible says that He has left us an example that we should follow His steps. That’s the reason why I drive a Rolls Royce. I’m following Jesus’ steps.” (“Ever Increasing Faith” program on TBN (9 December 1990].)
Frederick K C. Price : “The Bible says that He [Jesus] had a treasurer–a treasury (they called it “the bag”); that they had one man who was the treasurer, named Judas Iscariot; and the rascal was stealing out of the bag for three-and-a-half years and nobody knew that he was stealing. You know why? Because there was so much in it, He couldn’t tell. Nobody could tell that anything was missing. If He had three oranges in the bottom of the bag and he stole two of them, don’t tell me He wouldn’t know that some was missing. Beside that, if Jesus didn’t have anything, what do you need a treasury for? A treasury is for surplus. It’s not for that which you’re spending. It’s only for surplus–to hold it until you need to spend it. Therefore, He must have had a whole lot that needed to be held in advance that He wasn’t spending. So He must have had more than He was living on.” (“Ever Increasing Faith” program on TBN [23 November 1990].)
Kenneth Copeland : “As a believer, you have a right to make commands in the name of Jesus. Each time you stand on the Word, you are commanding God to a certain extent because it is His Word.” (Our Covenant with God [Fort Worth, TX: KCP Publications, 1987], 32.)
God’s word says to rebuke and exhort with all long suffering and doctrine because the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears.
God’s word also says the elders that sin rebuke before all that others may fear.. Paul said he went about warning everyone night and day. We need to stand for the truth or will will fall for lies. It is not …in heaven as it is on earth. But it is on earth as it is in heaven.
Church people seem to fall for much falsehood, because they do not study the word of God for themselves. We should never get into he said, she said,.
But what does God say.. We are making many preachers out as little semi popes and put these preacher”s word above God’s word as do the popes and other false prophets.. Read God’s word. Study to show yourself approved unto God a workman that needeth not to be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth. May God Almighty bless you and your loved ones through Jesus Christ our LORD Yahweh (Jehovah) in the flesh…

If you listen closely to these preachers you will notice they say they need money to preach the gospel and most of the time is taken up with begging for money. don’t they have faith it will come? Fred Price made many anti white racist remarks, doesn’t that mean anything to you? Do you believe it is alright to be a black bigot and not right to be a white bigot? If this is your belief you are in grave error.
Hal Lindsey who wrote a number of best sellers has been asking for money on almost every program I watched. Jack VanImpe is also asking for money . Do you remember the words of Psalms that says I have been young and old and have never seen God’s saints begging bread… If they are always talking money that’s what they are about, If someone is always talking baseball or basketball, or hunting that’s what they are about . If someone is always talking about Jesus and raising him up that is what they are about..some of these television preachers say you can have a free book…for a donation of $$ that is not free.
Check yourself out and see what you are about. Money, basketball , sports, movie stars from Hellywood….then that is what your major is. Just like in college . What is your major?
