VS. Non-Word of Faith? I saw the two sub categories, and have never heard of either of them, so I don't know where I would belong!
Please fill me in, thanks.

What is Word of Faith?

Well, you could say Word of Faith is about believing God for His many promises in the Bible. It is about putting God's word to work for you in your life. It is about trusting Him that He will indeed deliver those promises to you and that you are a worthy child of God deserving no less than what is suitable for you as His precious child. It is about using your God-given authority to fight and stand against the powers of evil and about overcoming all obstacles that the enemy throws your way by using and declaring God's word over your life. It is about friendship and intimacy with Jesus our Saviour. It is about Salvation and living as one body within God's Kingdom, where He equips you to deal with the many issues that may come your way.
As far as non word of faith, I'm in no position to say - you'll have to ask them.
Welcome to you, and may your time here be blessed...

I am Word of Faith. I understand that some take issue with what we believe and want to make it plain that they are not Word of Faith. However, in the short time I have been here, I have not been able to learn what those issues are.
Maybe you should go to the Non-Word of Faith section and ask them.
Welcome and Blessings to you!

Yes
If it were not for his ministry and teachings on faith and healing, I doubt I would be among the living today.

Hi and welcome! We have a statement of faith at the top of the forum which summarises our beliefs. Might be worth taking a look at that. I was completely unaware until I came here that some spirit filled believers were non word of faith. My understanding about what they believe is that most of them focus on the extremes or have had a bad experience in the past and so in effect they throw out the baby with the bath water! Will pray for wisdom and guidance for you in this.

very basically speaking, we believe God and His word, and that He will keep and execute all the promises that He has made in the bible. We accept His viewpoint above our own.
According to the rules, I may not post the original document which explains our beliefs in detail, because it was removed by the Advisors.
those who are non-WOF have sought refuge in their own forum. they have tried WOF and found it wanting for various reasons, and have gone on to establish their own beliefs.

Faith beleives that God is a rewarder, that what Jesus said is true, and that Jesus showed us the Father.
Faith is pretty simple. It simply eliminates God off the accusation list of why things are not right in our life. He did not do it. Faith He is good and that all His intentions toward us are good. He always gives us the desired end. He is for us and not against us. That goodness translates into our being saved in every way we can be saved. We beleive that God accomplished our total salvation via the suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus. Faith says "it is finished." God is withholding no good thing from us. We are truely saved in everyway way we can be saved. Physical death is the only enemy left to be defeated.... and that defeat is coming soon!

Thanks everyone - I Love Kenneth Hagin, and I believe that he's one of the very few teachers that I've read/heard that was actually grounded in the truth. I just somehow got by without ever hearing of the "word of faith movement" title, I guess.
Thanks for the descriptions and explainations - I guess I've found a home on here
