Much has been said about the Word of Faith, but is the much saying based on the truth. The tactic and the spirit behind the critics of the Word of Faith is highly suspicious. The effort is relentless. The cut and paste journalism, misquotes, false implications, out of context quotations, misrepresentation of facts, and the list goes on. It is the desire of many Bible scholars who have sat quietly on the sidelines to simply present the truth in love.

Are you ready for the challenge? Are you willing to be a Berrien, willing to think for yourself, to research the scriptures, and most of all not to allow the fear mongers to seduce you. You will see how those that oppose the Word of Faith use ungodly means to produce their intended end.

Let's pray: Dear heavenly father we come to You in the precious name of Jesus and ask you to open the eyes of our understanding so that we may see and know the truth. You said that the spirit of truth would guide us into all truth. So we trust the Holy Spirit to show us from Your word what is truth. We know that the Word and the Spirit agree. Amen.

Disclaimer. I want to make it perfectly clear that there are many ministers that are under the banner of Word of Faith that have done and said some things that are not right. It is not possible to defend them all, nor should they all be defended. It is to God that all of us must give an account. Kenneth Hagin always said that there is a lot of Word of Faith teaching that is not Word of Faith out there. I was raised Baptist. Thank God for the Baptists, but there was a lot going on in that camp that would have made your hair stand up on your head.

Dispelling the darkness. There is growing evidence in the field of medicine that there are cures and answers for a lot more than we are being told. There are biblical answers to a lot of questions you may have about the Word of Faith that are being suppressed for various reasons as well.

Proverbs 6:16-19 (NLT) There are six things the Lord hates, no, seven things he detests: haughty eyes, a lying tongue (or pen, or web site), hands that kill the innocent, a heart that plots evil (or writes an evil plot in book form), feet that race to do wrong (or race to sell and publish the next lie), a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord in a family, (or the body of Christ).

When it comes to the critics, the Pharisees, the self acclaimed watchman I could have underlined all 3 verses. I believe that there are some that meant well, like the Pharisees of old, they saw Jesus opposing their doctrine and branded him heretical. Their eyes could not see past the blinders they imposed on themselves, they never examined the Word of God to see for themselves the beauty of the living Christ.

I call all watchmen, discernment ministries, Christian researchers, heresy hunters to repentance. All those who refuse to examine the full context of the Word of Faith and leave out crucial information that would certainly shed a fairer light on the men and woman of God who are bringing the word to multitudes.
