More so than you are?

For whatever reason, God still sees fit to use him.

Evidently God has a different perspective on his flaws, sins, heresies than you do.

Not that God excuses any such per se . . . just that He ranks things differently in Kenneth’s life than you seem to.

And/or He has a different schedule for cleaning Kenneth up than you do.

I don’t know of an pastor who hasn’t taught a raft of junky stuff . . . particularly in their younger more arrogant years or older more arrogant years.

Arrogance is a super sin in maybe a majority of pulpits. And wherever arrogance is, there will be heresies and stupid assertions.

IN EVERY DENOMINATION.

Just because your Pastor’s junky assertions are more to your sensibilities and comfort zones doesn’t make them more right than Kenneth’s.

"For whatever reason, God still sees fit to use him."

I have herd stories that during the 50's healing revival that men would fight over how would speak first or who would speak last, and in all the fist fights and mayhem God still chose to heal during the services.

Having taught Biblical Studies, Systematic Theology and Pastoral Studies on the graduate and undergraduate level for many years, I am not basing my opinion of Copland on my "pastor’s junky assertions" or my "sensibilities and comfort zones". Having examined Copland and his heretical teachings in light of the Word of God and sound Christian doctrine, I stand by my conclusions... Kenneth Copland is a heretic and false teacher.

As for "God still seeing fit to use him", there is nothing to indicate that Almighty God is using him. God's Word is clear; Satan has his own "Servants of righteousness" and Kenneth Copland fits the description found in 2 Corinthians 11:13-15 to a tee:

"For such men are false apostles, deceitful workers, disguising themselves as apostles of Christ. No wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness, whose end will be according to their deeds."
