I am not Word of Faith because of any benefit it occurs. I am Word of Faith because it is what the Bible teaches: the Word of God produces faith and faith pleases God and moves mountains, heals the sick, changes life and makes us pure.
To suggest that people are only Word of Faith because of the benefits it entails is to suggest people are only in it for the benefits.
There are benefits to being a Christian, in fact the Psalmist says that He daily loadeth us with benefits. We are told not to forget His benefits such as forgiving us all our sins and healing all our diseases.
Why would I want to be part of a Christianity that ignores the Biblical command to forget not that He heals all our diseases?
My friend left his Word of Faith church,he is happier now because he says that now he is hearing a go and give message.Jesus was always talking about giving,not getting.
That is exactly what Word of Faith teaches. Give give give.
That's why we must use His discernment to know the difference between wolves and sheep. It's the same story even among denominational groups. There are some horrendous denominational leaders out there! If the Word of God isn't being preached, then it's best to steer clear, isn't it?

Love us hey.. and forgive us our sins as we forgive you your sins..
I am a believer in JESUS CHRIST same as every other believer..
And I believe what GODS word says.. I stand on that WORD!! Over circumstances.. over what I see and feel..
And these signs shall follow them that believe..
Mark 16:17-20
17 "And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;
18 "they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover."
19 So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.

How has the Word of Faith helped your relationship with Jesus Christ?
What is the main message of Word of Faith?
This is not a debate thread - it so the members who are Word of Faith can share why they are Word of Faith.
Rom 10:8 MKJV But what does it say? "The Word is near you, even in your mouth and in your heart"; that is, the Word of Faith which we proclaim;
Heb 11:6 MKJV But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
Rom 10:17-18 MKJV Then faith is of hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. (18) But I say, Have they not heard? Yes indeed, their voice went out into all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.
