All these years, I thought I was the only one who thought his eyes were demonic. I cannot watch him (or his wife) without feeling a darkness that scares me. I was so relieved to know it wasn't just me being overly critical! I agree with Marilyn - whatever he's filled with, it's definitely not the Holy Spirit. It's more about him playing God. And that's scary.
“ You Don’t go to God because you need stuff, you go to God because you need Him”. Love that. I think you and I had the same facial reactions during his “ so called sermon”. Thanks for this video.
but Jesus also says this It was John 16:23, where Jesus tells the apostles “Amen Amen I say to you, whatever you ask from the Father, He will give it to you in My name”.
Just a disclaimer- remember guys, it's easier to be a bully when it comes to putting someone down. It takes love and dignity to not stoop to such a level when we're disagreeing with someone like Kenneth Copeland... who- let's face it- can be an easy target. Let's display a godly maturity in this area 🙏 "If truth is not undergirded with love, it makes the possessor of that truth obnoxious and the truth repulsive." - Ravi Zacharias
Melissa Dougherty They have no fear of God. I find it hard to believe that he is this old and really believes the things that come out his mouth. He is in his 80’s. He will meet the Lord soon. Unless he repents and soon he will not have a good ending.
I'm so old I'm not even sure I know what a millennial is but, if this young woman is an exemplar then, for heaven's sake: Live Long and Prosper! Most folks with her strato-intellect have issues with humility. This lady is a crystal-clear communicator, a pleasure to listen to, delightful to look at, has a gentle and pleasing sense of humor and is unselfconsciously humble in a most endearing way. You're on MY list Melissa! Hope to see more of your work going forward.
Lord Jesus, please soften Kenneths heart and mind to you, and deliver him from the darkness, and demons. Please call him out of the darkness God. For your glory Father, amen.
I must commend you for praying for this man. I commented that we should pray for him, then I stumbled upon your prayer and found it very loving of you, and was able to agree with you in prayer. Amen.
Amen. I think he really believes he is doing the right thing. He is VERY MISINFORMED OR IS BLINDED WITH A SPIRITUAL VEIL OF DECEPTION. LORD PLEASE DELIVER MR COPELAND AND MAY HIS LOVE OF MONEY BE EXPOSED BY A LOVING MERCIFUL GOD.
Amen. Please check out my other 2 comments on this page. They are separated from each other. HAs to do with his experience as a baby and the cross of Christ.
I felt a check in my spirit regarding Kenneth Copeland and the entire faith movement many years ago. I think this breaks our Father God's heart, such a black eye to the body of Christ. No wonder so many have turned away from the church.
He’s not even saying anything about anything. This isn’t even ear itching this is straight rambling. This is why people will remain lost if they don’t learn the word for themselves.
So true. I've felt the Lord convict me of this also. Church is great, reading sound Christian books are great, but if you don't get to know God on your own and read His word everyday, you'll be taken away with the current. Its quite scary listening to KC as he really is rambling, yet his church followers think he makes sense!
@@jayneschwalger7554 That's what I always try to do. Seek God first, then look at the world and see what makes sense and is right and what isn't. Also there are so many things God says that the world will explain differently. Anything, forced, crazy, abusive, etc. does not come from God.
"This is why people will remain lost if they don’t learn the word for themselves." You're so right! Most people have never read the Bible for themselves and don't understand what it says. If they knew the Bible, they would be forearmed to fight off misrepresentations like this. Here a link to an online Bible site: www.biblegateway.com/versions/New-International-Version-NIV-Bible/#booklist You can use the "Listen" feature to have the Bible read to you while you read along, if you prefer. Blessings.
I actually think he's kind of taking a dive lately, probably in the interest of retiring. They probably have someone else in the wings waiting to replace him.
That is so true. I've started saying to quit reading the Bible and start studying it, along with the original language words to help explain the CONTEXT. Context matters. It's the difference between confusion and understanding.
I don't even need to watch this to know it will be on point. Thanks so much for helping educate God's people on false teaching that permeates our Christian culture.
But You should still definitely watch all of it... it’s not only truthful and extremely helpful and exposing, but a really fun time like all and if not all than most of Marissa’s videos. Idk about ya’ll but this is a biblical hoot.
After his declaration of a strong south wind and a heatwave there were unusually LOW temperatures in Texas. The following day and the week after I believe, it was unseasonably COLD ! The LORD God almighty will NOT be mocked !
I've read similar comments on other videos rebuking Copeland. God is almighty. And we should all be thankful when he reminds us we are not,lol. My guess is Copeland is too wrapped up in himself to notice what the lord is doing.
It's been quite cold for this time of year here in Maryland, as well. We even had a light snow recently! I've had to wear my jacket outside since mid-March. It's usually short sleeved or tank top weather here around this time, or at least close to it. I've seen several people claiming that KC is a true prophet and "general of the faith" and that there's really been a heatwave all across the country since this sermon 😒
1:06:55 Maybe Kenny read up on John Calvin demanding the Geneva Councils (govt) declare him the one and only voice of God, and enforce it by the sword of the govt. Actually watching somebody in action makes my skin crawl and hair stand on end.
I remember being a kid and seeing him on tv. I felt something was off then. I was maybe 7-8 years old. I just remember always changing the channel quickly. God gave me discernment even as a babe.
I love when she prefaces a remark with "I mean no disrespect but..." and then, with the measured tone and thoughtful content of what follows, demonstrates that she's true to her word!
He either forgets a lot or he's making this up as he goes along. Nothing connects. Nothing makes sense. He's not in touch with his own mind, let alone with reality. Melissa, you are amazing for being able to have the patience to actually critique this charlatan,
It doesn’t mean that people don’t mock him. The Apostle is making a vivid contrast between God and man; It is impossible to impose on him who discerns the thoughts and intents of the heart. His law can’t be broken without punishment and He cannot be deceived. If one is sowing in the flesh, he better be ready to reap corruption. Remember that all the fruits of our behavior are not immediate. In the light of eternity he will not be mocked.
I watched a couple of his t.v. Sermons in the early 80’s, and the Holy Spirit helped me see how dangerous he was. He’s a heretic. Thank you for reviewing this sermon. It’s also interesting that he’s turned off his comments on his TH-cam channel.
@@jamiefredrickson2560 That's funny because a short while back I referred to tactics creationist Kent Hovind used as "B.S.tianity." Because unlike Christians like me and Ms. Doughherty who try to lead humble lives in following Christ, you've got pinheads like Copeland who spread B.S. to line their pockets.
The long pauses, laughter, groans, moans, yelling, etc have a purpose. I grew up in a hyper charismatic WOF church and those things were taught to be an anointing that was so powerful that it became difficult for the anointed person to function physically. It’s demonic and it’s for dramatic effect and also allows a 10 minute sermon to last 45 minutes. Also, the “pretending it’s hot” thing is an example of the WOF teaching of James 2. (Faith without works is dead). For example, if you broke your leg and you proclaim healing you must get up and walk in order for your leg to be healed. If you didn’t your Faith was dead and wouldn’t work. Many people have made their illness worse because they stopped taking their medication.
I have a hard time watching him. My mom watched him, believing in what he taught, supported the ministry, always tried to preach to my siblings...it has turned them away from Christianity. I'm a believer in Jesus, God's only son, learning the Word verse by verse, in the Hebrew meaning... This makes me sick and sad as it's so hard to reach my brother, sisters, children with the Truth. My mom's last year on earth was spent drawing close to Jesus, reading the Word, and having true peace with her relationship with God! I'm sad she was caught up in his ministry, all she wanted was Jesus! She's with Him now. Please pray for my family to accept Christ. Thank you, I bring them the Gospel, love them, live my life loving them! God Bless you!
My uncle, HIGHLY admired in my family, by his seven brothers and sisters, gave money to Copeland. My uncle ascribed to a combination of Christianity and Zen Buddhism, and I recall everyone thinking he was oh-so-deep and wise. Ugh! It makes me sick. My mom died in 1985, after a very painful, drawn out death with cancer. I can only pray she knew the right Jesus.
My dear lady I don't know why we spent so much time talking about who is false or who it doesn't personally I never like the way he preaches or how he focuses in money or any other preacher that do the same but I believe he will eventually be judge by God all mighty, so why don't we that have the "sound doctrine" teach the real word of God? It's just an opinion
Melissa, I have to say I really do enjoy watching your videos. This was well done and something I would love to see you do more because you do it respectfully and thoughtfully. You don’t need to mock to make your point... well done!! ❤️
You must stop judging him..don't think your judging isn't very obvious.. first of all God said.. greater works would we do ..I don't limit my God about anything,God also said. AL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH God, He gave His children power over everything on this earth..I am not going to pass judgement over KC. We have all power in heaven and on earth...I have witnessed many miracles and have prayed for them in my life and seen them happen..You need to stop taking this man apart..I don't think you take Gods word literslly..I do..every word is the inspired word of God..
Thank you 😊 Melissa. Thank you for speaking against the false teachings by so many "teachers". I suspected they were false and this definitely confirms it.
as usual people use wrong words and gives the word a wrong definition A prophet is a ministry gift to the TRUE Church ONLY- those of satan are simply psychics who are satans side kicks and are witchery
Does it ever seem like people like him seem to view the bible as some sort of spell casting book rather than a history of god's people and a guide towards him? They read the text but they always seem to miss the message/meaning in the very text they read.
Definitely. I once saw a book which was a long list of different verses taken completely out of context which could be used for all sorts of problems in life, and all you had to do was repeat them over and over. I can't remember which verse was used, but I recall there being one for sunburn. I called it the Christian Spellbook.
That's EXACTLY what it seems like he does. Perfect words. And he's been wrong 100% of the time. Why do people keep following him?? Ridiculous. He should be out of business.
YES! It DOES seem that way! I think that's why he creeps me out so much....he doesn't focus at all on our relationship with God, but on what power we have in the name of Jesus! Your comment just hit the nail on the head...
The man is a confidence man. A con artist plain and simple. He has that big personality, he knows exactly who his audience is and how to manipulate them.
Notice they ALL have more money than the national bank , they prey on poor vulnerable people . They live in mansions ,eat the best drink the best , dress the best & are flown around in their own private jets???? ALL religions are a racket !!! My dad would always say that when I was a kid & it took me 30 years to find out he was right !
These people are heretics blaspheming the Word of the Lord Jesus Christ. The reason anyone would trust and believe the heresy of Kenneth and Gloria Copeland, Paula White, Jesse Duplantis, Joyce Myer, Creflo Dollar, T.D. Jakes, Joel Osteen and Victoria Osteen, Juanita Bynum so many other ungodly "ministers" is because they aren't seeking Jesus for salvation nor are they asking the Holy Spirit for discernment and most importantly they do not read the Word for themselves.
So you all are God's judges, how do you know this stuff that God doesn't want them to be rich? I believe as I read the Bible we need to be rich, where in the Bible does it say God wants us poor but it's ok for the world to be rich? You need to read your Bibles and see what God says about being rich! Look at the men of the old testament and look at what Jesus said and did! I think that the Billionaires of the world should be Christians not these worldly people like Gates who is wanting for everyone to get the mark of the beast put in their hands, wake up people there are people going to help and the devil using these Democracts, BLM, KKK, ANTIFA to bring destruction to America and are wanting to stop the church and get us to go against each other! There are Baptist preachers I don't agree with but I don't go on TH-cam and put them down I just ok that's not what I believe and I just leave it at that because they maybe right but I don't see it oh well!
I pray he has not yet been given over to a reprobate mind. His actions show that this is a distinct possibility though that he has. I believe he is possessed. He is not teaching the Jesus of the Bible. He is teaching doctrines if demons. I pray though, that he will come to repentance AND repent before the church and disavow his heretical teachings.
Marsha Smith If someone doesn’t get healed, it’s because they don’t have enough faith. So the sick person is not helped and now is put down farther because of their lack of faith.
@Myrm Ants Jesus said, 'be healed' and it was done, nothing to do with faith on many occasions. It is to show the glory of God many times and the power of the Lord.
Agree, he has a religious spirit possessing him. No different than the demon possessed woman who followed the apostles crying out to the people to ”these men are servants of the Most High, ” in acts 16:17
It’s really sad, many many years ago, I was a new Believer, heard him, read his books, but now I see the manipulation, I thank God that He opened my eyes, to see through this, let’s pray for eyes to be opened and the Spirit of Deception to leave Gods children alone, to whom much is given, much is required, we all have to give an account one day, I rather be a door keeper in the house of the Lord, than to dwell in the tents of the wicked, we shall pray in Unity and Harmony and Love, that all these Prosperity Preachers be exposed in Jesus Name. Thank you for Sharing. God bless you.
I knew 20 years ago there was something amiss about his preaching, but couldn't put it into words. You hit the proverbial "nail on the head;" an emotional exaggeration.. Thank you so much for sharing your God-given discernment.
I saw a video of lisa guerra from inside addition interviewing him and at one point in the interview he got angry at her and gave her a look and stare down that gave me chills im sure lisa will never forget that look it was like she was staring at the devil himself hes very creepy idk how someone like him suck so many people in amazing
Calling out those who make false claims isn’t attacking, it’s protecting believers (and even non-believers) from a false doctrine... from being deceived and led away from God. God would never want us to see a deceiver and stay quiet about it while many are led astray...
I only recently discovered your channel. Thanks for your diligence and level-headed approach. All I will say about this "sermon" is YIKES! I appreciate you speak compassionate truth.
Hey Melissa bet you didn't think you'd hear from me again. Lol Though I disagreed with you at first I have to say God is so good that if your heart is sincere in wanting to know the truth even though I was certain of what I believe I am now more open than before that I could be wrong. Thank you for your gentleness in your response towards those who disagree with you. Though I did but now I have been exploring this in more depth. Right now I'm undecided but more open than before to look deeper into the supporting scriptures you offered. Thanks again. Appreciate any prayer on my behalf. I do love and want to know the truth
II Timothy 2:15-22, study to show thyself approved unto God.. Preachers and Pastors are to lead but we are to study to make sure we have true leadership that’s guided by God. It’s like following someone in a trail but have your own map to look at to make sure the leader is doing right.
Not to be petty but I cannot handle his voice 🤦🏽♀️ I looked at a pic from the 80’s of him & he doesn’t have those demon eyes he has now. Something obviously happened.
That is so true. I used to watch him on T.V. years ago and he is definitely not the man he used to be. There is something very demonic in his eyes and his entire being. I fear for him but I also pray for him.
EXCELLENT POINT! Back in the 70s and 80s my parents were big supporters of his. We watched him every Sunday night on Ch.20 in the D.C. area. Well, he has STRANGELY become a different man over the decades. And it's a strange and scary thing. What's worse...are the people who "partner up" with him and other type preachers. That is a very strange and weird crowd of people!! I got totally away from that whole crowd many years back.
He has such flowery ways to say nothing. Dramatic pauses, the appearance of emotional conviction, pseudo authoritative speech...all to say fluff in order to convince people that what he's saying is right.
I’m not even half finished with this video and I just really don’t want to keep watching because it just hurts my heart to hear this horrible teaching. I’m so very sad for this man. God please convict Kenneth Copeland to repentance.
Kenneth is so full of himself, I honestly doubt he would listen to sound doctrine. He has open his spirit to a legion demons. You can hear them when he growling out scriptures ( making other strange sounds) and his speaking in tongues wasn't praising Jesus. It sounded like demonic chanting that you hear in horror movies.
AMEN!! God bless you Sister..... Totally dig that you want to pray for him and not just point out what he kind of seems to really be. The tares and the wheat must grow up together but come Harvest all will be separated and God will be glorified amen
Can you honestly see this guy repenting? I wonder what that would look like? I think he's "all in" on this thing whatever it is. Jim Baker tried to backpedal from his schemes and it didn't work. So did Jimmy Swaggert and other TV preachers. Usually they ride the wreckage to the bitter end.
I’m honestly not trying to be funny, but something about this pastor just doesn’t sit right with my spirit, like he has some dark energy behind his eyes.
It's preachers like this that give Christianity a bad name. He's an embarrassment and disgraceful. I honestly believe he may be possessed. Just watch those eyes. If he was just someone out on the street he would be taken in to the nearest mental hospital and people would shake their heads and say 'oh that poor soul'.
Copeland certainly looks like he is possessed if there is a look. Bonhoeffer called such as these kind professing Christians who cheapen God's grace...
I've been a Christian for almost 40 years. I've been in full-time ministry in Pentecostal churches for 25 years. I have to say that nothing has changed over 2,000 years. As the Apostle Paul had to deal with the so-called Super Apostles (See 2Cor 11) of his day, so do we. Nevertheless, we have this encouragement, God will honor those who honor his Word. ~thanks Melissa
I got caught up in the “Faith” movement years ago. The Holy Spirit lead me out of this cult. I’m 80 years old now and praise God He is faithful to His Word ... the real Word in context of Truth. Cherry picking is the best words for these charlatans.
The Bible says that even the devil knows the Bible and can transport his into angels of light. This man is so demon possessed that it is obvious to those who have not been Bewitched by him. He has forgotten that God sees all.
It’s because many people do not know the Word of God, and the Spirit of God for themselves.. People assume that all of his personal revelations are really from God. They assume that he is receiving divine revelations from God almost daily. There are also others that claim to receive such revelations too often.
Some of these people claim that God is speaking to them, and giving them “new” revelations almost daily. Well, try, (test), the spirits to see whether they are of God.. We test them by God’s Word. If they don’t agree with the Word. -exactly, they are not of the Lord. We know that He does truly give true knowledge and revelations, but they will always agree with His Word. The true God always speaks, and works according to His own Word. He never does anything independently of His own Word..
He could not have possibly written this "sermon" down. He's freestyling like a rapper. That's improvisation. I'm a jazz musician...I can spot improv 100 miles away. He's really good too. He has a few points and he wings it from point to point.
Don’t under estimate this kind of preacher’s , they are very calculative So as to capture their audience which is so deadly n deverstating , that’s why God has shut there churches because he can’t stand this blasphemy any longer .
Jesus was asked what would be the sign if his return. Three times He said there would be false prophets so these people dont surprise me. What surprises me is the people who believe him and empty their pockets and give all their money to them.
Thank you, Melissa. Well done.The big question I would pose is this: if he blew on the virus and commanded it to die, why is it still here? If his ‘Words of Faith’ were truly the words of God then the virus would have disappeared and every person would be healed. When Jesus commanded the wind to stop, He didn’t have to wait for it, it was instant. Copeland’s examples of wind (all taken out of context and misuse of the original meaning and intent) were inconsistent. He just makes things up on the fly. The saddest thing is that people think this is Christianity. I am embarrassed because of the way he portrays what being a Christian is. Quite often when I am witnessing to someone, this subject comes up, and I need to explain that this is not what the Gospel is. Keep up the good work. Your efforts will bear fruit.
Me too. I’m not making fun...it’s not funny. He is in serious danger. He is so full of self pride. Religious pride. I believe he is one reason so many unsaved people really are turned off to it. They don’t know he’s apostate. Also, she MISTAKENLY CALLED HIM A MULTIMILLIONAIRE. HE MAKES IT CLEAR HE IS A BILLIONAIRE. very tragic. Not funny for many reasons
Having recently been delivered from almost 35 years in WOF, and 2 yrs. slipping into NAR, I have seen A LOT. I was never a big fan of KC, but this message was certainly one of the most cringe worthy I’ve seen. You did a great job stating your observations and concerns without any disrespect. Thank you for your videos, they have been a blessing!
@@bellabelle6 It's New Apostolic Reformation. Sort of New Age with a veneer of Christianity. Do a bit of searching, you'll find it's creeping into mainstream Christianity in an alarming way.
Hi Melissa. Thank you for doing these videos. I was delivered from the word of faith teaching in 2020 . What a journey it’s been...so much confusion...almost to the point I almost walked away. But how gracious God is.
Ohhh Nooo!! I am a Christian! I can not believe anyone would listen to that yelling & creepy talking. His voice is intolerable!!! I had to laugh!!!🤣🤣 How did you get through this without laughing out loud or cringing more & crying for God to stop him!!!!!!🤣🤣 My spirit was screaming for me to turn it off!!! Thank you girl!!!!People come on!!!!! Really????
Jesus Christ never did anything for entertainment , Jesus Christ only bring us the experience . You must have your faith experience base upon relationship in Christ , the word of is spirit ; we worship in the holy spirit manifest expression . Life and death is in the power of our tongue . ( Proverbs 18 : 21)
This is not a pastor I like to watch. There is something about him that doesn't appeal to me. Once they attain that much wealth they get all full of themselves.
I never felt comfortable listening to him and others like him they just ramble on and on and if they could do what they claim they can hospitals would be a good place to prove it ' with other preachers i never had that doubtful feeling , i think that is the spirit of truth we have been given to discern false teaching if something doesnt sound right it probably isnt. Copeland is scary looking no doubt
Because they are deceived as well. True Christians can decipher who is right and wrong according to God’s Word. Kenneth Copeland is a lizard man he is terrifying hahaha
i was wondering if anyone else noticed his eyes or was it just me......there are times in this video where his eyes change. They look like demon eyes then they go back to his dark eyes. I don't know if anyone else sees that but I sure do.
Part of that is before social media and internet it was difficult to expose someone like him now in todays world its difficult for him to hide who he really is all things done in the dark will come to the light
I just love watching you! You’re well spoken and truly take a wholly biblical approach to your analysis of sermons and writing from preachers. I grew up listening to Kenneth Copeland. I came from the Word of Faith movement and can seriously relate to the story of Costi Hinn, my uncle being the senior pastor of my church growing up and my father, having attended the same bible school, ministered along side him. I’ve began writing my experiences down and how things were damaging for me, even things I had buried and ignored because they didn’t seem significant, that still stemmed from the flawed doctrine and manipulative teachings. I’ve even started doing research on the history of the word of faith movement and other denominations and beliefs that lead to its forming as well as ones that branched out from it afterward or began almost simultaneously. Thanks for showing how these teachings do not reflect the Bible!
Hello my sister, it's true what you say about Kenneth Copeland. He is truly not from God. But let me advise you. We as children of God do have power to raise the dead, heal the sick and many many more miracles and healings. Moses and Elijah were mere men but they did great things because they were under the annointing of the Holy God. Now let me tell you of a man in our modern times. I know of a man who prayed and and aids victims was healed. I saw in a vision a meteor comming down in a fiery blaze but was stopped by a Man of God. I saw again in a vision a great tsunami comming over the earth but was stopped by a mere mortal man in the spirit of the Lord Almighty. We can control the weather, we can call out the wind and stop the tsunami. Kenneth Copeland knows that because he was once a true man of God before he sold his soul for money and fame. If you a rebuke a demon in the name of Jesus, it will flee. If you say I am poor you will be poor. If you say I am not sick, you will not be sick. My sister if you had all the power would you not allow your children to inheret at least some of your powers. So just like our father he has not given us a spirit of Fear but of Power and Might. My sister you speak wonderful but you are of little FAITH. Speak to me, I have much to tell you of FAITH. It truly can move MOUNTAINS.
I never really comment on videos but I appreciate your work for the kingdom especially in an age when truth seems to have left the public square. May you and your ministry be blessed beyond measure. Thanks again for your service. -a brother in christ.
Kenneth Copeland started this ministry a long time ago, and was very popular on Trinity broadcasting Network for quite some time since the late '70s. Even back then I thought he was weird, him and Benny Hinn alsoTerry Poppoff. I do not recommend any of these people for Bible study.
Its so ironic how 43 mins into this message Kennth tells his son in law, “don’t touch me” and proceeds to social distance himself from the others! WHAT? Why would such a “GIANT of faith” (in his own eyes) have to do such a thing IF the virus has already been judged, killed and burned up already? 😳🤭🙄
It was exactly the 'actions opposite of words' that made me finally separate from every WoF teacher. Covid came out and I thought surely the WoF churches will stay open! (I.e. people can always choose if they want to come, but if we preach faith like this, duh, why would we close our doors?) Then the entire group shut down at once. I was amazed. Then I was on a call with my (now former) pastors, and 400+ "faith leaders" and the White House, and first heard about the stimulus including churches that have lost money by closing. It was two days after they were first given that info that they decided to close. And I knew I was finally done. And have been having an interesting time reading the Bible (I had before, but under that lens) and seeing so many obvious Biblical objections to what I had been taught!
Bingo. I haven't watched one of his sermons in decades, but that is definitely some form of dementia going on there, so we have to look at what he says from that angle too. And he should probably step down.
Kenneth Copeland would sent me $1 Million Dollar$, to pay off all debt$ & straightened my home to cleanliness. This would be a good works for being faithful as a good deed. Please help cause God told me too. 😇👐🖖🙏👼🌹💒⛪🕍🕛♎✡️🕎✝️🛐⬆️🆙🇮🇱🇺🇸
I have been a Christian for a very long time now, and even though, I love the Lord Jesus with all my heart, I'm far from perfect. I use to watch this man years ago, and I think he used to be OK but now he is very demonic, and I have heard very bad things about him, by very many good, true, Christian channels that I follow, and know I can trust! So he must have sold his soul or something, and it is very sad! I can't stand to watch him, and even his eyes look dark and demonic!
@@crosswarrior7 Well I'm going to call him demonic. Because I can see something else at work in him. The eyes are the windows of the soul, and I can see something demonic there. He is no longer oppressed but possessed. Hes given himself over to something.
I love your channel. You are spot on about this man! You analyze his sermon intelligently and point out his lack of bible based intent. It is sad that millions cannot see through his smoke screen of garbage. You are brave to chance backlash from so many! Thank you for standing up to a man who seems to represent satan more than Jesus. In the end, God will be his judge. Still, I hope you continue to question these ungodly people. You go girl:)
Melissa, an additional point: Jesus did not rebuke every storm. He rebuked that particular storm because He understood that God had business for him on the other side of the sea of Galilee. I believe we can send away a storm, when it is in the way of something God wants us to do. Jesus says that the disciples could have sent the storm away as well. However, we can't send away any storm we wish according to our whim. We have to follow God's heart; it is all about God, not us.
Having more fun reading the comments😀. Melissa thank you for being a watchman. You are not slandering. You are warning the people of wolves in sheeps clothes and doctrines of demons. You are actually revealing what has been hidden to the blind.
As someone who has came out of word of faith or the prosperity message the one item you do not hear much about is the sovereignty of Jesus. I have seen people hurt when they are told that either they don’t have enough faith or even worse. I truly believe that people do not have a real understanding of what faith is and one of the reasons for that is people just don’t do their homework. Don’t be afraid to question what people are saying and do your homework! Great video !
All these years, I thought I was the only one who thought his eyes were demonic. I cannot watch him (or his wife) without feeling a darkness that scares me. I was so relieved to know it wasn't just me being overly critical! I agree with Marilyn - whatever he's filled with, it's definitely not the Holy Spirit. It's more about him playing God. And that's scary.
Watching Kenneth Copeland is more painful than having a tooth removed 🤦🏾♀️!
without an anaesthetic. I would say it was like having a filling, and the dentist is drilling on the nerve.
Embarrassingly painful
One thing I have learned from Melissa is : “Context, Context, Context.” Gold.👍🏼
If you like "context context and context" then check out Fighting for the Faith.
“ You Don’t go to God because you need stuff, you go to God because you need Him”. Love that. I think you and I had the same facial reactions during his “ so called sermon”. Thanks for this video.
Amén brother 🙏
Amen got does not give you what you want. He gives you what you need.
🙏🏾
You go to God, because you want to have fellowship with Him. Service comes from that fellowship, which isn't self serving.
but Jesus also says this
It was John 16:23, where Jesus tells the apostles “Amen Amen I say to you, whatever you ask from the Father, He will give it to you in My name”.
Just a disclaimer- remember guys, it's easier to be a bully when it comes to putting someone down. It takes love and dignity to not stoop to such a level when we're disagreeing with someone like Kenneth Copeland... who- let's face it- can be an easy target. Let's display a godly maturity in this area 🙏
"If truth is not undergirded with love, it makes the possessor of that truth obnoxious and the truth repulsive." - Ravi Zacharias
Melissa Dougherty you did something challenging very well. You didn’t bully him well done.👍🏻
Well said
well Jesus was certainly was very direct and with the pharacees
turn there tables over...
You are a really good role model for this. Thank you
Melissa Dougherty They have no fear of God. I find it hard to believe that he is this old and really believes the things that come out his mouth. He is in his 80’s. He will meet the Lord soon. Unless he repents and soon he will not have a good ending.
I'm so old I'm not even sure I know what a millennial is but, if this young woman is an exemplar then, for heaven's sake: Live Long and Prosper! Most folks with her strato-intellect have issues with humility. This lady is a crystal-clear communicator, a pleasure to listen to, delightful to look at, has a gentle and pleasing sense of humor and is unselfconsciously humble in a most endearing way. You're on MY list Melissa! Hope to see more of your work going forward.
Wow, those are such wonderful and respectful compliments! I hope she sees your comment. It’s all true 🙂
Lord Jesus, please soften Kenneths heart and mind to you, and deliver him from the darkness, and demons. Please call him out of the darkness God. For your glory Father, amen.
I must commend you for praying for this man. I commented that we should pray for him, then I stumbled upon your prayer and found it very loving of you, and was able to agree with you in prayer. Amen.
Amen. I think he really believes he is doing the right thing. He is VERY MISINFORMED OR IS BLINDED WITH A SPIRITUAL VEIL OF DECEPTION. LORD PLEASE DELIVER MR COPELAND AND MAY HIS LOVE OF MONEY BE EXPOSED BY A LOVING MERCIFUL GOD.
Amen. Please check out my other 2 comments on this page. They are separated from each other. HAs to do with his experience as a baby and the cross of Christ.
Amen. These people are lost or disobeying God on purpose. Being loving and praying for them is what Christ would want us to do.
Amen
I felt a check in my spirit regarding Kenneth Copeland and the entire faith movement many years ago. I think this breaks our Father God's heart, such a black eye to the body of Christ. No wonder so many have turned away from the church.
He’s not even saying anything about anything. This isn’t even ear itching this is straight rambling. This is why people will remain lost if they don’t learn the word for themselves.
So true. I've felt the Lord convict me of this also. Church is great, reading sound Christian books are great, but if you don't get to know God on your own and read His word everyday, you'll be taken away with the current. Its quite scary listening to KC as he really is rambling, yet his church followers think he makes sense!
@@jayneschwalger7554 That's what I always try to do. Seek God first, then look at the world and see what makes sense and is right and what isn't. Also there are so many things God says that the world will explain differently. Anything, forced, crazy, abusive, etc. does not come from God.
"This is why people will remain lost if they don’t learn the word for themselves." You're so right! Most people have never read the Bible for themselves and don't understand what it says. If they knew the Bible, they would be forearmed to fight off misrepresentations like this.
Here a link to an online Bible site: www.biblegateway.com/versions/New-International-Version-NIV-Bible/#booklist You can use the "Listen" feature to have the Bible read to you while you read along, if you prefer.
Blessings.
I actually think he's kind of taking a dive lately, probably in the interest of retiring. They probably have someone else in the wings waiting to replace him.
That is so true.
I've started saying to quit reading the Bible and start studying it, along with the original language words to help explain the CONTEXT.
Context matters. It's the difference between confusion and understanding.
I don't even need to watch this to know it will be on point. Thanks so much for helping educate God's people on false teaching that permeates our Christian culture.
Hey, Pastor Parr! I found this channel because of you. Thank you!
Great to see you HERE Allen Parr.
Hey, Allen, I am absolutely LOVING your channel and it's content! Glory to God 😘💞
Hello Allen, Thank you so much for your recommendation of Melissa, i have her everyday since:)
But You should still definitely watch all of it... it’s not only truthful and extremely helpful and exposing, but a really fun time like all and if not all than most of Marissa’s videos. Idk about ya’ll but this is a biblical hoot.
After his declaration of a strong south wind and a heatwave there were unusually LOW temperatures in Texas. The following day and the week after I believe, it was unseasonably COLD ! The LORD God almighty will NOT be mocked !
I've read similar comments on other videos rebuking Copeland. God is almighty. And we should all be thankful when he reminds us we are not,lol. My guess is Copeland is too wrapped up in himself to notice what the lord is doing.
It’s actually getting cold here in Florida which isn’t normal at all
Lol
It's been quite cold for this time of year here in Maryland, as well. We even had a light snow recently! I've had to wear my jacket outside since mid-March. It's usually short sleeved or tank top weather here around this time, or at least close to it. I've seen several people claiming that KC is a true prophet and "general of the faith" and that there's really been a heatwave all across the country since this sermon 😒
Lady Q its dark here....has been for awhile...I just feel God is waiting for something BIG!
This man is controlled by something and it is not the Holy Spirit--
Amen!! He's got the devil in him!
I think he is demonic.
I think he is
He’s demonic without doubt
People he is not demonic, he is a well-seasoned CON-MAN.
This guy is scary..he's full of something..and it's not GOD
1:06:55 Maybe Kenny read up on John Calvin demanding the Geneva Councils (govt) declare him the one and only voice of God, and enforce it by the sword of the govt. Actually watching somebody in action makes my skin crawl and hair stand on end.
Totally right
Like a ghost.Full of sheet!
Hah! you got that right. its something in him. and it ain't all The Living God, or good. Its dangerous.
I remember being a kid and seeing him on tv. I felt something was off then. I was maybe 7-8 years old. I just remember always changing the channel quickly. God gave me discernment even as a babe.
When he said turn to the Book of Genesis and he took that long to find Genesis I knew he was a phony
Yeah. It’s not that hard to find lol
😂😂😂
Yes that says it
@@biblechampion81 rolling on the floor laughing.
I love when she prefaces a remark with "I mean no disrespect but..." and then, with the measured tone and thoughtful content of what follows, demonstrates that she's true to her word!
He either forgets a lot or he's making this up as he goes along. Nothing connects. Nothing makes sense. He's not in touch with his own mind, let alone with reality. Melissa, you are amazing for being able to have the patience to actually critique this charlatan,
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.”
Galatians 6:7 NIV
God if real gets mocked all the time so apparently he can and does.
It doesn’t mean that people don’t mock him. The Apostle is making a vivid contrast between God and man; It is impossible to impose on him who discerns the thoughts and intents of the heart. His law can’t be broken without punishment and He cannot be deceived. If one is sowing in the flesh, he better be ready to reap corruption. Remember that all the fruits of our behavior are not immediate. In the light of eternity he will not be mocked.
I watched a couple of his t.v. Sermons in the early 80’s, and the Holy Spirit helped me see how dangerous he was. He’s a heretic. Thank you for reviewing this sermon. It’s also interesting that he’s turned off his comments on his TH-cam channel.
God is not in this its all about him!!
He seems like he's making it up as he goes along.
Because he is. He is simply creating a bs story out of another bs story. lol there is no "gods"
When did you figure that out...
I agree: enough is enough. Thank you for your enlightened and truthful commentary.
@@jamiefredrickson2560
That's funny because a short while back I referred to tactics creationist Kent Hovind used as "B.S.tianity." Because unlike Christians like me and Ms. Doughherty who try to lead humble lives in following Christ, you've got pinheads like Copeland who spread B.S. to line their pockets.
The long pauses, laughter, groans, moans, yelling, etc have a purpose. I grew up in a hyper charismatic WOF church and those things were taught to be an anointing that was so powerful that it became difficult for the anointed person to function physically. It’s demonic and it’s for dramatic effect and also allows a 10 minute sermon to last 45 minutes.
Also, the “pretending it’s hot” thing is an example of the WOF teaching of James 2. (Faith without works is dead). For example, if you broke your leg and you proclaim healing you must get up and walk in order for your leg to be healed. If you didn’t your Faith was dead and wouldn’t work.
Many people have made their illness worse because they stopped taking their medication.
Yes , Word of Faith is so dangerous ! Let’s all pray for those false teachers and the lost sheep, who so easily fall into these traps.
I have a hard time watching him. My mom watched him, believing in what he taught, supported the ministry, always tried to preach to my siblings...it has turned them away from Christianity. I'm a believer in Jesus, God's only son, learning the Word verse by verse, in the Hebrew meaning...
This makes me sick and sad as it's so hard to reach my brother, sisters, children with the Truth. My mom's last year on earth was spent drawing close to Jesus, reading the Word, and having true peace with her relationship with God! I'm sad she was caught up in his ministry, all she wanted was Jesus! She's with Him now. Please pray for my family to accept Christ. Thank you, I bring them the Gospel, love them, live my life loving them! God Bless you!
Mari Lee God Bless you Acts 16:31♥️
Keep with Jesus and never let go. Much love
My uncle, HIGHLY admired in my family, by his seven brothers and sisters, gave money to Copeland. My uncle ascribed to a combination of Christianity and Zen Buddhism, and I recall everyone thinking he was oh-so-deep and wise. Ugh! It makes me sick. My mom died in 1985, after a very painful, drawn out death with cancer. I can only pray she knew the right Jesus.
Mari Lee same here
My dear lady I don't know why we spent so much time talking about who is false or who it doesn't personally I never like the way he preaches or how he focuses in money or any other preacher that do the same but I believe he will eventually be judge by God all mighty, so why don't we that have the "sound doctrine" teach the real word of God? It's just an opinion
Melissa, I have to say I really do enjoy watching your videos. This was well done and something I would love to see you do more because you do it respectfully and thoughtfully. You don’t need to mock to make your point... well done!! ❤️
🙏📖Amen📖🙏
You must stop judging him..don't think your judging isn't very obvious.. first of all God said.. greater works would we do ..I don't limit my God about anything,God also said. AL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH God, He gave His children power over everything on this earth..I am not going to pass judgement over KC. We have all power in heaven and on earth...I have witnessed many miracles and have prayed for them in my life and seen them happen..You need to stop taking this man apart..I don't think you take Gods word literslly..I do..every word is the inspired word of God..
My grandfather use to call people like Copeland, prophets for profit.
Good one 👍🏻 I'm gonna use that one...
Thank you 😊 Melissa. Thank you for speaking against the false teachings by so many "teachers". I suspected they were false and this definitely confirms it.
as usual people use wrong words and gives the word a wrong definition
A prophet is a ministry gift to the TRUE Church ONLY- those of satan are simply psychics who are satans side kicks and are witchery
And your Paw Paw was right!
Is more like : if they call themselves Prophets they’re in it for a profit! ❤️
I love this! Please do ALL of the TV false preachers! We need it
Does it ever seem like people like him seem to view the bible as some sort of spell casting book rather than a history of god's people and a guide towards him? They read the text but they always seem to miss the message/meaning in the very text they read.
Yes!
Definitely. I once saw a book which was a long list of different verses taken completely out of context which could be used for all sorts of problems in life, and all you had to do was repeat them over and over. I can't remember which verse was used, but I recall there being one for sunburn. I called it the Christian Spellbook.
...or the Bible to them is like a Sears catalog, out of which you can claim your miracle
That's EXACTLY what it seems like he does. Perfect words. And he's been wrong 100% of the time. Why do people keep following him?? Ridiculous. He should be out of business.
YES! It DOES seem that way! I think that's why he creeps me out so much....he doesn't focus at all on our relationship with God, but on what power we have in the name of Jesus! Your comment just hit the nail on the head...
Melissa what a kind person you are . You have a soft spirit . Bless you. I will follow you and pray for you and your ministry.
This man is VERY scary, like he is posessed or something. And I fully agree, he doesn't preach the gospel.
possessed by money 💀💀💀
It's of the devil out of hell 🔥
He is a false prophet and his reward is laid up for him...
The man is a confidence man. A con artist plain and simple. He has that big personality, he knows exactly who his audience is and how to manipulate them.
He looks possessed to me too
I also think that he’s been lying on God for so long that he is out of his mind now.
I am so tired of preachers "using" God and manipulating people for money.
Notice they ALL have more money than the national bank , they prey on poor vulnerable people . They live in mansions ,eat the best drink the best , dress the best & are flown around in their own private jets???? ALL religions are a racket !!! My dad would always say that when I was a kid & it took me 30 years to find out he was right !
These people are heretics blaspheming the Word of the Lord Jesus Christ. The reason anyone would trust and believe the heresy of Kenneth and Gloria Copeland, Paula White, Jesse Duplantis, Joyce Myer, Creflo Dollar, T.D. Jakes, Joel Osteen and Victoria Osteen, Juanita Bynum so many other ungodly "ministers" is because they aren't seeking Jesus for salvation nor are they asking the Holy Spirit for discernment and most importantly they do not read the Word for themselves.
Dawn Atsea e
He wants to be god
So you all are God's judges, how do you know this stuff that God doesn't want them to be rich? I believe as I read the Bible we need to be rich, where in the Bible does it say God wants us poor but it's ok for the world to be rich? You need to read your Bibles and see what God says about being rich! Look at the men of the old testament and look at what Jesus said and did! I think that the Billionaires of the world should be Christians not these worldly people like Gates who is wanting for everyone to get the mark of the beast put in their hands, wake up people there are people going to help and the devil using these Democracts, BLM, KKK, ANTIFA to bring destruction to America and are wanting to stop the church and get us to go against each other! There are Baptist preachers I don't agree with but I don't go on TH-cam and put them down I just ok that's not what I believe and I just leave it at that because they maybe right but I don't see it oh well!
He literally makes me feel sick inside. We need to pray for him.
YES, pray for him & those following! 💔
@@bumblebee7982
Yes...pray!
Pray for this man. God will give even him a chance to repent. He clearly needs deliverance.
bless your heart
@Victor Makris
He's beyond repentance...His ways are already set
Yah's will be done is all i will say
You a are very correct, he needs God's forgiveness and deliverance.
I pray he has not yet been given over to a reprobate mind. His actions show that this is a distinct possibility though that he has. I believe he is possessed. He is not teaching the Jesus of the Bible. He is teaching doctrines if demons. I pray though, that he will come to repentance AND repent before the church and disavow his heretical teachings.
“We don’t need to become bullies to share truth.”
Spot on.
Why don't they go to all the hospitals and cancer places and heal everybody. I believe in healing but God doesn't heal everyone.
Isn't that a little too convenient though?
Marsha Smith If someone doesn’t get healed, it’s because they don’t have enough faith. So the sick person is not helped and now is put down farther because of their lack of faith.
th-cam.com/video/br7L9PEJ1gA/w-d-xo.html
This link might shed light to this discussion
@David Ogborn Why do you say that kids aren't healed because lack of faith?
@Myrm Ants Jesus said, 'be healed' and it was done, nothing to do with faith on many occasions. It is to show the glory of God many times and the power of the Lord.
I haven't read many comments yet, but I worry KC may actually be demon-posessed. The man alone is frightening.
Mary Kränsel only on tv, but l’ve looked into his eyes and they say demon to me.
I agree it's in his eyes!!
And/or demonically influenced...very frightening!
Agree, he has a religious spirit possessing him. No different than the demon possessed woman who followed the apostles crying out to the people to ”these men are servants of the Most High, ” in acts 16:17
His forced laughing is so fake and evil
And that feeling in the pit of your stomach is called “discernment”. This guy is a bit scary
I pray for this man and all that follow him! May God open their eyes to the truth 🙏🏻
It’s really sad, many many years ago, I was a new Believer, heard him, read his books, but now I see the manipulation, I thank God that He opened my eyes, to see through this, let’s pray for eyes to be opened and the Spirit of Deception to leave Gods children alone, to whom much is given, much is required, we all have to give an account one day, I rather be a door keeper in the house of the Lord, than to dwell in the tents of the wicked, we shall pray in Unity and Harmony and Love, that all these Prosperity Preachers be exposed in Jesus Name. Thank you for Sharing. God bless you.
I knew 20 years ago there was something amiss about his preaching, but couldn't put it into words. You hit the proverbial "nail on the head;" an emotional exaggeration.. Thank you so much for sharing your God-given discernment.
It seems he is elevating himself and not Jesus, all about I, I, I.
He looks evil
💔
Lol he's a I doctor I did this I did that
Sounds luciferian huh?
Kenneth is actually insane...but has masterfully created space for millions of others to adore him, and become insane with him.
Hid facial expressions are so creepy! Its disturbing
The facial expressions come across as demonic
29:35 I know right? He’s creepy enough to play the Joker in the next Batman movie
Yeah, and then there's the constant growling on top of that. I guess he thinks he's the Big Bad Wolf.
He is the big bad wolf (not even wearing sheep clothes). His voice litteraly sounds like that of a demon. This man is scary. Weird!!
I saw a video of lisa guerra from inside addition interviewing him and at one point in the interview he got angry at her and gave her a look and stare down that gave me chills im sure lisa will never forget that look it was like she was staring at the devil himself hes very creepy idk how someone like him suck so many people in amazing
He doesn’t make any sense at all. His interpretation of the word is way off. Scary!
I want to commend you for not attacking the man but the falsehoods.
What's attacking means!!!! Jesus called out the priests of his time and called them generation of serpents!!!!!!! Would you consider that attacking??
Calling out those who make false claims isn’t attacking, it’s protecting believers (and even non-believers) from a false doctrine... from being deceived and led away from God. God would never want us to see a deceiver and stay quiet about it while many are led astray...
@@raulramirez9302 Exactly

@@MelissaDougherty I love you my sister, so I endured this video just for you. Don't know how I got through it 😭🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hey Melissa bet you didn't think you'd hear from me again. Lol Though I disagreed with you at first I have to say God is so good that if your heart is sincere in wanting to know the truth even though I was certain of what I believe I am now more open than before that I could be wrong. Thank you for your gentleness in your response towards those who disagree with you. Though I did but now I have been exploring this in more depth. Right now I'm undecided but more open than before to look deeper into the supporting scriptures you offered. Thanks again. Appreciate any prayer on my behalf. I do love and want to know the truth
II Timothy 2:15-22, study to show thyself approved unto God.. Preachers and Pastors are to lead but we are to study to make sure we have true leadership that’s guided by God. It’s like following someone in a trail but have your own map to look at to make sure the leader is doing right.
Not to be petty but I cannot handle his voice 🤦🏽♀️ I looked at a pic from the 80’s of him & he doesn’t have those demon eyes he has now. Something obviously happened.
Amen
That is so true. I used to watch him on T.V. years ago and he is definitely not the man he used to be. There is something very demonic in his eyes and his entire being. I fear for him but I also pray for him.
EXCELLENT POINT!
Back in the 70s and 80s my parents were big supporters of his.
We watched him every Sunday night on Ch.20 in the D.C. area.
Well, he has STRANGELY become a different man over the decades.
And it's a strange and scary thing.
What's worse...are the people who "partner up" with him and other type preachers. That is a very strange and weird crowd of people!!
I got totally away from that whole crowd many years back.
He has such flowery ways to say nothing. Dramatic pauses, the appearance of emotional conviction, pseudo authoritative speech...all to say fluff in order to convince people that what he's saying is right.
I’m not even half finished with this video and I just really don’t want to keep watching because it just hurts my heart to hear this horrible teaching. I’m so very sad for this man. God please convict Kenneth Copeland to repentance.
Kenneth is so full of himself, I honestly doubt he would listen to sound doctrine. He has open his spirit to a legion demons. You can hear them when he growling out scriptures ( making other strange sounds) and his speaking in tongues wasn't praising Jesus. It sounded like demonic chanting that you hear in horror movies.
This is the kind of comment I wish we could see more of.
"IF" it were possible they will deceive the very elect
AMEN!! God bless you Sister.....
Totally dig that you want to pray for him and not just point out what he kind of seems to really be. The tares and the wheat must grow up together but come Harvest all will be separated and God will be glorified amen
Can you honestly see this guy repenting? I wonder what that would look like? I think he's "all in" on this thing whatever it is. Jim Baker tried to backpedal from his schemes and it didn't work. So did Jimmy Swaggert and other TV preachers. Usually they ride the wreckage to the bitter end.
I’m honestly not trying to be funny, but something about this pastor just doesn’t sit right with my spirit, like he has some dark energy behind his eyes.
It's preachers like this that give Christianity a bad name. He's an embarrassment and disgraceful. I honestly believe he may be possessed. Just watch those eyes. If he was just someone out on the street he would be taken in to the nearest mental hospital and people would shake their heads and say 'oh that poor soul'.
Copeland certainly looks like he is possessed if there is a look. Bonhoeffer called such as these kind professing Christians who cheapen God's grace...
Yes!!!! 😈 eyes
T.V. evangelist, have caused more damage to the Christian faith then anything in history.
agreed
@@lauriemillar3721 not only the eyes. Notice how his voice changes at times and it is like someone else is speaking through him. Very creepy.
I've been a Christian for almost 40 years. I've been in full-time ministry in Pentecostal churches for 25 years. I have to say that nothing has changed over 2,000 years. As the Apostle Paul had to deal with the so-called Super Apostles (See 2Cor 11) of his day, so do we. Nevertheless, we have this encouragement, God will honor those who honor his Word. ~thanks Melissa
I got caught up in the “Faith” movement years ago. The Holy Spirit lead me out of this cult. I’m 80 years old now and praise God He is faithful to His Word ... the real Word in context of Truth. Cherry picking is the best words for these charlatans.
...he is so scary just to look at ....I get the thought of a posessed person...
he is absolutely demonic.
Yes he sound demonic n creepy ... and his way of "praising God " sounds so fake n in a mocking matter ... sarcastically...
Don't ever feel guilty about exposing quacks like this.
The Bible says that even the devil knows the Bible and can transport his into angels of light. This man is so demon possessed that it is obvious to those who have not been Bewitched by him. He has forgotten that God sees all.
I wonder if does males with him consider their selves men?!?!
It’s because many people do not know the Word of God, and the Spirit of God for themselves.. People assume that all of his personal revelations are really from God. They assume that he is receiving divine revelations from God almost daily. There are also others that claim to receive such revelations too often.
@@evang.michaele.caruthers8997 There are so many such vultures in India.In the name of christ they are financial frauds
Some of these people claim that God is speaking to them, and giving them “new” revelations almost daily. Well, try, (test), the spirits to see whether they are of God.. We test them by God’s Word. If they don’t agree with the Word. -exactly, they are not of the Lord. We know that He does truly give true knowledge and revelations, but they will always agree with His Word. The true God always speaks, and works according to His own Word. He never does anything independently of His own Word..
He could not have possibly written this "sermon" down. He's freestyling like a rapper. That's improvisation. I'm a jazz musician...I can spot improv 100 miles away. He's really good too. He has a few points and he wings it from point to point.
Hate to say it but this guy gives true Christians a bad name ,nut case !
Lol. He is from Texas. The free styling as a jazz musician is a cultural thing. So is the “rabbit holing”.
Exactly!! He is doing Second City improv on Sunday. SMH
Here we sit about a month after this was preached, and the virus is still with us, and the heat wave never came.
Cathy Kushner it is May 8th and we had snow today in MI.🤓
Cathy Kushner a heatwave would have to occur in every corner of the earth, which is impossible with seasons and all that
Thank God that heat wave never came!!
No one wants to challenge him so thanks for doing this video , people are like sheep blindly following him
😆😆😆
This man has made himself rich off of the hopes of so many.
The bible warns so much of this sort of thing.
Don’t under estimate this kind of preacher’s , they are very calculative So as to capture their audience which is so deadly n deverstating , that’s why God has shut there churches because he can’t stand this blasphemy any longer .
Yes it's a crime. He has millions and millions. Jets you name it....
Since I have come out of Word of Faith,my walk with God Almighty is more sound.
Praise God!
People that preach this way need our prayers and to help them find the true God
What I find fascinating is once you remove the audience and their applause and whooping it really truly becomes a case of the emperor has no clothes..
Wow. Profound point. 👌
Well said! So true
This is exactly right! There is no crowd to distract you from what he is truly saying. My God please help us.
Abiding in Christ Wow! You just hit the nail on the head. Thank you for being the voice of reason.
Yup. Nekkid as a jaybird.
Jesus was asked what would be the sign if his return. Three times He said there would be false prophets so these people dont surprise me. What surprises me is the people who believe him and empty their pockets and give all their money to them.
Thank you, Melissa. Well done.The big question I would pose is this: if he blew on the virus and commanded it to die, why is it still here? If his ‘Words of Faith’ were truly the words of God then the virus would have disappeared and every person would be healed. When Jesus commanded the wind to stop, He didn’t have to wait for it, it was instant. Copeland’s examples of wind (all taken out of context and misuse of the original meaning and intent) were inconsistent. He just makes things up on the fly. The saddest thing is that people think this is Christianity. I am embarrassed because of the way he portrays what being a Christian is. Quite often when I am witnessing to someone, this subject comes up, and I need to explain that this is not what the Gospel is. Keep up the good work. Your efforts will bear fruit.
So if The weather is a “weapon of God” isn’t he rebuking God?
That was my question exactly
Sherridon Lyons And the verses in the last chapters of JOB are so beautiful describing how God created the seasons, nature, and weather!!
@Sherridon Lyons
An amusing point...
I'm not making fun of him at all but he genuinely scares me especially when I look into his eyes.
That's the demonic forces writhing just under the surface.
Exactly. It's those eyes. I saw him years ago, and his eyes have changed and it's creepy.
The eyes are the window to the soul...demonic
agree!
Me too. I’m not making fun...it’s not funny. He is in serious danger. He is so full of self pride. Religious pride. I believe he is one reason so many unsaved people really are turned off to it.
They don’t know he’s apostate. Also, she MISTAKENLY CALLED HIM A MULTIMILLIONAIRE. HE MAKES IT CLEAR HE IS A BILLIONAIRE. very tragic. Not funny for many reasons
He has his style. Joel Olsteem has his, which is a lot of psychology, feelgoodism, very little scripture meat! Sad.
You are very true Sandy Davison....this preachers just take advantage and prey on people's feelings and emotions.
Having recently been delivered from almost 35 years in WOF, and 2 yrs. slipping into NAR, I have seen A LOT. I was never a big fan of KC, but this message was certainly one of the most cringe worthy I’ve seen. You did a great job stating your observations and concerns without any disrespect. Thank you for your videos, they have been a blessing!
Debbie R What’s NAR?
@@bellabelle6 It's New Apostolic Reformation. Sort of New Age with a veneer of Christianity. Do a bit of searching, you'll find it's creeping into mainstream Christianity in an alarming way.
Hi Melissa. Thank you for doing these videos. I was delivered from the word of faith teaching in 2020 . What a journey it’s been...so much confusion...almost to the point I almost walked away. But how gracious God is.
Ohhh Nooo!! I am a Christian! I can not believe anyone would listen to that yelling & creepy talking. His voice is intolerable!!! I had to laugh!!!🤣🤣 How did you get through this without laughing out loud or cringing more & crying for God to stop him!!!!!!🤣🤣
My spirit was screaming for me to turn it off!!! Thank you girl!!!!People come on!!!!! Really????
It doesn't reflect on you.
That’s the point , she could hammer this man ten ways to Sunday. Her restraint shows grace, while calling him out! That’s her job!

We need more preachers/teachers like you, with clarity and honesty
Jesus Christ never did anything for entertainment , Jesus Christ only bring us the experience . You must have your faith experience base upon relationship in Christ , the word of is spirit ; we worship in the holy spirit manifest expression . Life and death is in the power of our tongue . ( Proverbs 18 : 21)
This is not a pastor I like to watch. There is something about him that doesn't appeal to me. Once they attain that much wealth they get all full of themselves.
Amen! Copeland showboats! He's a nut that's lost its tree!
U ovrs
I never felt comfortable listening to him and others like him they just ramble on and on and if they could do what they claim they can hospitals would be a good place to prove it ' with other preachers i never had that doubtful feeling , i think that is the spirit of truth we have been given to discern false teaching if something doesnt sound right it probably isnt. Copeland is scary looking no doubt
I literally watched this, peeping through my fingers, like a child watching a scary movie. (scary embarrassing)
True. Everytime he laugh it's so creepy 😳😭 I feel so uncomfortable
What I find interesting is that many Christians are afraid to speak out against these people.
Because they are deceived as well. True Christians can decipher who is right and wrong according to God’s Word. Kenneth Copeland is a lizard man he is terrifying hahaha
Warpy is right.
His eyes bother me. A lot.
His eyes bother me alot too.
Me too.
He reminds me of Marshall Applewhite.
Possessed and might even be legion. He's lost. False prophet and teacher of blasphemy. Prayer for all.
i was wondering if anyone else noticed his eyes or was it just me......there are times in this video where his eyes change. They look like demon eyes then they go back to his dark eyes. I don't know if anyone else sees that but I sure do.
Pains me to know he's been running his circus for half a century.
Monty python's flying circus church...
He mentioned wind of rebuke. Would farting in it's general direction count? I'm sorry I had to 🙈
Indeed he has. I remember both KC and Benny Hinn from ny childhood and I'm 45.
Part of that is before social media and internet it was difficult to expose someone like him now in todays world its difficult for him to hide who he really is all things done in the dark will come to the light
@@ninabart9745 I was not prepared to laugh but when I read your comment I was glad I didn't have a mouth full of coffee
Also "the prosperity gospel" is a different gospel.
Now I know what prosperity gospel is these people are not of God there false prophets
We are not greater than God never will be!!!!!!!
Wow God mercy on false prophets and that they repent before they pass.
Jesus warned of false prophets.But we have to test the fruit of the person
Speaking things into existence, The Secret. Picking bible verses to make it sound christian.
All I’m gonna say is may God have mercy on his soul it makes my heart fall to my feet that he is teaching anybody this man is very dangerous..
Melissa you did a great job and did really show a lot of respect and responded like a true Christian with kindness
He talked for an hour, and didn’t say a thing.
@Michael Vanpesky ,very true,they're so empty,lies ,no Word at all because they are not born again.
He been doing this nonsense for decades.
James Brown made a great song about people like that.
His voice changed and I believe that was a spirit speaking out of him. Pray for Kenneth Copland and these other prosperity gospel preachers!!!
I just love watching you! You’re well spoken and truly take a wholly biblical approach to your analysis of sermons and writing from preachers. I grew up listening to Kenneth Copeland. I came from the Word of Faith movement and can seriously relate to the story of Costi Hinn, my uncle being the senior pastor of my church growing up and my father, having attended the same bible school, ministered along side him. I’ve began writing my experiences down and how things were damaging for me, even things I had buried and ignored because they didn’t seem significant, that still stemmed from the flawed doctrine and manipulative teachings. I’ve even started doing research on the history of the word of faith movement and other denominations and beliefs that lead to its forming as well as ones that branched out from it afterward or began almost simultaneously. Thanks for showing how these teachings do not reflect the Bible!
Did you notice how many times he says ”I”?
That’s because he teaches the Prosperity Gospel a heresy that teaches you that you are “little gods”.
We don't control the weather but we can pray to God to send rain.
You can see the soul of a person through their eyes..Yes he needs our prayers..😌
The love of money is the root of all evil.
Hello my sister, it's true what you say about Kenneth Copeland. He is truly not from God. But let me advise you. We as children of God do have power to raise the dead, heal the sick and many many more miracles and healings. Moses and Elijah were mere men but they did great things because they were under the annointing of the Holy God. Now let me tell you of a man in our modern times. I know of a man who prayed and and aids victims was healed. I saw in a vision a meteor comming down in a fiery blaze but was stopped by a Man of God. I saw again in a vision a great tsunami comming over the earth but was stopped by a mere mortal man in the spirit of the Lord Almighty. We can control the weather, we can call out the wind and stop the tsunami. Kenneth Copeland knows that because he was once a true man of God before he sold his soul for money and fame. If you a rebuke a demon in the name of Jesus, it will flee. If you say I am poor you will be poor. If you say I am not sick, you will not be sick. My sister if you had all the power would you not allow your children to inheret at least some of your powers. So just like our father he has not given us a spirit of Fear but of Power and Might. My sister you speak wonderful but you are of little FAITH. Speak to me, I have much to tell you of FAITH. It truly can move MOUNTAINS.
Rod Sax, you do realize that you are addressing a guy, right? You keep calling him sister.
Yes it is!! Wish it didn't exist!!
I never really comment on videos but I appreciate your work for the kingdom especially in an age when truth seems to have left the public square. May you and your ministry be blessed beyond measure. Thanks again for your service.
-a brother in christ.
Forgot to thank you Ms. Dougherty for exposing this faker. Peoples eyes need to be open and you're there for that. God bless you.
Kenneth Copeland started this ministry a long time ago, and was very popular on Trinity broadcasting Network for quite some time since the late '70s. Even back then I thought he was weird, him and Benny Hinn alsoTerry Poppoff. I do not recommend any of these people for Bible study.
False preacher and known as one..sister your intellect and beauty is a tremendous blessing from the Most High God Yeshua.🙏🕊️👍❤️😀
There’s nothing about repentance in his sermon or in that “prayer of salvation.” Awful!
He doesn't pray. He orders.
Its so ironic how 43 mins into this message Kennth tells his son in law, “don’t touch me” and proceeds to social distance himself from the others! WHAT? Why would such a “GIANT of faith” (in his own eyes) have to do such a thing IF the virus has already been judged, killed and burned up already? 😳🤭🙄
Yes I noticed that! In hindsight, I wished I'd commented on it, but I couldn't add much in editing. It was ironic, wasn't it?!
It’s just absolutely contradictory. Nothing but double-mindedness.
It was exactly the 'actions opposite of words' that made me finally separate from every WoF teacher. Covid came out and I thought surely the WoF churches will stay open! (I.e. people can always choose if they want to come, but if we preach faith like this, duh, why would we close our doors?) Then the entire group shut down at once. I was amazed. Then I was on a call with my (now former) pastors, and 400+ "faith leaders" and the White House, and first heard about the stimulus including churches that have lost money by closing. It was two days after they were first given that info that they decided to close. And I knew I was finally done. And have been having an interesting time reading the Bible (I had before, but under that lens) and seeing so many obvious Biblical objections to what I had been taught!
Also remember he is 84 years old now...his pauses and circular thinking is due to the on set of Alzheimer’s
Bingo. I haven't watched one of his sermons in decades, but that is definitely some form of dementia going on there, so we have to look at what he says from that angle too. And he should probably step down.
Yes, that’s what I think too. But he’s so rich and so popular, he’s got a platform. I hope his followers wake up and see the Truth.
But why won't he retire?
I don't know how you kept a straight face. He's like a mad grandpa with a whiff of second hand car salesman.
Can you imagine being trapped in a lift with him? His flock are asleep while the wolf fleeces them.
😂 that’s so funny!
Lol 😂
I think most of these preachers start off with good intentions but then get caught up in the evil lusts of the world...wealth,fame you name it.
Yeah, young Kenny Copeland is probably a lot different than the man we see here.
Kenneth Copeland would sent me $1 Million Dollar$, to pay off all debt$ & straightened my home to cleanliness. This would be a good works for being faithful as a good deed. Please help cause God told me too. 😇👐🖖🙏👼🌹💒⛪🕍🕛♎✡️🕎✝️🛐⬆️🆙🇮🇱🇺🇸
I agree.
I have been a Christian for a very long time now, and even though, I love the Lord Jesus with all my heart, I'm far from perfect. I use to watch this man years ago, and I think he used to be OK but now he is very demonic, and I have heard very bad things about him, by very many good, true, Christian channels that I follow, and know I can trust! So he must have sold his soul or something, and it is very sad! I can't stand to watch him, and even his eyes look dark and demonic!
Let's not call anyone demonic. That's not going to help anything.
@@crosswarrior7 Well I'm going to call him demonic. Because I can see something else at work in him. The eyes are the windows of the soul, and I can see something demonic there. He is no longer oppressed but possessed. Hes given himself over to something.
Yes, he’s demonically possessed.
I love your channel. You are spot on about this man! You analyze his sermon intelligently and point out his lack of bible based intent. It is sad that millions cannot see through his smoke screen of garbage. You are brave to chance backlash from so many! Thank you for standing up to a man who seems to represent satan more than Jesus. In the end, God will be his judge. Still, I hope you continue to question these ungodly people. You go girl:)
Easily the most scary pastor on TV.
Melissa, an additional point: Jesus did not rebuke every storm. He rebuked that particular storm because He understood that God had business for him on the other side of the sea of Galilee. I believe we can send away a storm, when it is in the way of something God wants us to do. Jesus says that the disciples could have sent the storm away as well. However, we can't send away any storm we wish according to our whim. We have to follow God's heart; it is all about God, not us.
Having more fun reading the comments😀. Melissa thank you for being a watchman. You are not slandering. You are warning the people of wolves in sheeps clothes and doctrines of demons. You are actually revealing what has been hidden to the blind.
As someone who has came out of word of faith or the prosperity message the one item you do not hear much about is the sovereignty of Jesus. I have seen people hurt when they are told that either they don’t have enough faith or even worse. I truly believe that people do not have a real understanding of what faith is and one of the reasons for that is people just don’t do their homework. Don’t be afraid to question what people are saying and do your homework! Great video !
