24 Heretical Teachings of the Word of Faith Movement

WARNING: LISTENING THE STATEMENTS MADE BY THESE TEACHERS MAY CAUSE SOUL TWITCHING AND OR SPIRITUAL NAUSEA. TO CLEANSE YOUR MIND WITH THE GOSPEL GO HERE AND HERE.

2 Timothy 4:3-4 For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.

The Health, wealth, and Prosperity Gospel is directly linked to the Word of Faith Movement. Both go hand in hand. Although there are Prosperity Teachers who are not Word of Faith, there are no Word of Faith Teachers that do not teach the Prosperity Gospel. Sadly, Word of Faith prosperity teaching has had global consequences. Thanks to many of the teachers in this post, this demonic "gospel" has made its way Around the world through venues Such as TBN and God TV. The most blasphemous statement these people make is that the Christian is a "little god." If you know anyone involved in the Word of Faith Movement, or the Prosperity Gospel, please direct them to this post.
Galatians 1:8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.

1. God used the "force of faith" to create the universe.

2. God is six feet tall and has a hand span of about nine inches.

3. Heaven is a planet, and earth is the carbon copy of heaven.

4. Adam was created a "little god."

5. Because Adam was a "little god" he had super powers.

6. When Adam sinned he handed his godhood over to Satan, making Satan the god of this world.

7. God was left on the outside, desperately seeking a way to get back into the earth realm.

8. This made God the "biggest failure" in all the Bible.

9. God could be involved in this earth realm only by permission.

10. This left God seeking people such as Abraham to "allow Him" to work (His plan, if those He asked would allow, was to bring a Messiah into the world to take back His authority from Satan).

11. Those He invited into His plan didn't have to accept if they didn't want to, and God could do nothing about it (poor God!).

12. Using the "force of faith," God began to speak the Messiah into existence through the prophets, and finally Jesus ("the spoken Word") was born.

13. However, contrary to some, Jesus never claimed to be God.

14. Jesus had a big house and wore designer clothes.

15. We know He was rich because Judas stole money from "the bag."

16. Jesus was so rich that while He was on the cross the soldiers gambled for His clothes.

17. While on the cross Jesus took on the nature Satan.

18. At the cross God was no longer Jesus’ Father.

19. Jesus paid the penalty for our sins not on the cross, but in hell.

20. In hell, Jesus became the first born again man (in other words Jesus needed to be saved).

21. God spoke into the bowels of hell and resurrected Christ, defeating Satan and taking back His authority.

22. Now because of the work of Christ every Christian is a "little god."

23. As "little gods" we no longer have to be poor, but are to live in health, wealth, and prosperity.

24. As "little gods" we no longer have to pray "thy will be done."

6 Reasons You Should Stop Listening to Joyce Meyer

Popular author and teacher Joyce Meyer has said some shocking things in some of her sermons and teachings. Many of those who listen to her have never heard her make any of the claims that I'm about to show you. These are clips that I have put together and uploaded to YouTube to show that I hope would cause any discerning Christian to have second thoughts about listening to Joyce Meyer. Folks, these teachings come straight out of the cults, and are extremely dangerous. All of these teachings can be found in the Word of Faith Movement.

 

1. Joyce Meyer said that Jesus went to hell to pay for our sins

Nowhere do the Scriptures ever even imply this. If this were true Christ's words at the cross meant nothing.

John 19:30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, "It is finished," and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

 

2. Joyce Meyer claims to get her teaching from direct revelation

The Spirit wrote the Word. He would never say anything that contradicts the Word He wrote. Many of Joyce Meyer’s teachings contradict the Bible. Besides, the way God speaks to us today is not through direct revelation but through His Word. Red flags should start flying every time you hear someone say "God spoke to me."

 

3. Joyce Meyer said that Jesus stopped being the Son of God at the cross

This was also taught by the Father of the Word of Faith Movement, Kenneth (Dad) Hagin. Again, another teaching that contradicts Scripture. Jesus called God His Father while He was still on the cross.

Luke 23:46 Then Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!" And having said this he breathed his last.

 

4. Joyce Meyer said that she is no longer a sinner

Not much needs to be said about this. Here are a few verses that contradict Joyce Meyer:

Jesus calls His own disciples evil

Luke 11:13 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"

John says that Christians should confess their sins to God

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

John says that anyone who claims to be without sin is deceived and without the truth

1 John 1:8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

John says if we say we have not sinned we make God out to be a liar

1 John 1:10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

 

5. Joyce Meyer said that Christians are little gods

Word of Faith teachers say that God created man as a little god. Kenneth Copeland for example teaches that Adam "was God manifested in the flesh." However, Adam lost his godhood when he disobeyed God and ate of the tree that God commanded him not to eat f rom. Through this sinful act, Satan became the god of this world and Adam lost his godhood. But thankfully God was able to thwart Satans plan and sent Christ to buy back our godhood through His death on the cross, and suffering in hell. Now through faith in Christ, Christians are given back their god status and by growing in faith (becoming more and more aware of who we are as little gods) use the "force of faith" to get all that we desire from this life.

Of course the Bible teaches nothing of the sort. There is only one God, and we are to worship Him alone. Adam was created a man and not a little god. Nowhere in Scripture will you see anything that even implies this. Satan told Eve that by eating the fruit she would become "like God, knowing good and evil." No! We were never created as "little gods." This teaching is blasphemous and to embrace it will ultimately damn your soul.

 

6. Joyce Meyer said that Jesus was the first born again man

 

This is another Word of Faith teaching that contradicts Scripture. Here Meyer echoes the words of Kenneth Hagin :

"Why did He need to be begotten or born? Because He became like we were, separated from God. Because He tasted death for every man, His spirit, His inner man, went to hell in our place."

No! Christ became human at His incarnation. The Eternal Son of God, Second Person of the Trinity is the God Man, our New Adam, keeping the Law for us and dying in our place to pay the penalty for our Law breaking. He was not born again. He never needed to be born again. If He did then how could He be a perfect sacrifice for His people. God required a perfect sacrifice to pay for sins. If Christ had to be born again, then He was not that perfect sacrifice.

 

My prayer is that you will listen to these clips, compare them to Scripture, and then warn your family and friends who may be caught up in the teachings of Joyce Meyer.
