they are the most dangerous movement in all of the Christian world IMHO.

Hadn't thought about that. I think the ultra-right-wing hatemongers and/or cultists like Jim Jones, Heaven's Gate, etc., might be even more dangerous.

I can't put Jim Jones, Heaven's gate etc in the realm of Christianity Aliska. They were cults and weird ones at that. People like Kenneth Hagin,and Kenneth Copeland are considered mainline Christians, therefore they are the most dangerous as far as false doctrine goes IMHO.

They deny the power of God, saying he has no choice about what goes on here on earth. He has no rights here, and has to rely on man (themselves) to carry out His Plan. They believe that words have power, and you can speak things into being, (wicca) and that they are gods with a small g, among other heretical doctrines. That is just the tip of the iceberg!

The doctrine that tickles the ear, You are god, (same thing the serpent said to Eve in the garden), you control your destiny by your words which have power, and you can become rich by giving or sowing into their ministries. One would think people would notice the only ones who are rich and have their own Jets are the "ministers" of this so called doctrine.
