My G-d! I used to buy all his books and his cassets untill I discovered that all he does, like many other preacher like him, is taking advantage of many christian ignorance and their hungry for power and money. He missinterpretes the Holy Escriptures and make money with it. He really believe that he is special to G-d and better that anybody else. I know people that work close to him. One day he fired his chofer just because he talk while he wa meditating. He is another christian "pinp" who is living a luxery life becase the ignorance of many christian.
I have nothing again him, that is his business and he is the one who has to respond to G-d, I just feel sorry for those who send to him the little money they have for their families expecting to be rich.

I think God picks the most unlikely people to serve Him in a big way so that the whole world will recognize them. Even John D. Rockefeller Senior knew that it is God who gives man the power to get wealth. He knew the hand of province was on his money. When these people who are poor and give money into the Kenneth Copeland ministry they are giving to God and not Kenneth Copeland. They've done the right thing and it is up to Kenneth Copeland to do the right thing. None of us know and can interpret the Word of God precisely without any doubt in our interpretation without a divine Word from the Holy Spirit. Like any man of God, Copeland explains the Word of God the best way he knows how and God blesses that. When we need chastisement believe me God knows how to do it. God has no problem with correcting His children. Just be very thankful that the hand of God is on your life and that God does correct you.
Kenneth Copeland is not perfect, but none of us are. We all must serve our Lord the very best way that we can and it helps if our brothers and sisters in Christ love us as Jesus told us to do.

Kenneth Copeland, from Kenneth and Gloria Copeland are the Lords (Lords of TV evangelism/whatever - same business the European Pope and the Dalai Lama are in), has his good and bad points.
Good points.
Occasionally Kenneth Copeland speaks clearly about Christian values including prosperity.
Bad points.
Most often, Kenneth Copeland speaks as slowly as possible and camouflages truth.
Unfortunately, it seems like one of the motivations of Kenneth and Gloria is greed. They use their non-profit ministry to exit a world of poverty.
The fact that Kenneth Copeland associated himself closely with Oral Roberts/Oral Roberts University may be a good or bad thing in light of Richard Roberts, son of Oral Roberts, raiding the ORU treasury recently.
Is Kenneth Copeland worth a 10% tithe week to week?
Some believe so; others do not.

I've honestly never heard of him.
I do like the music of Aaron Copeland though.

Complete heretic.
Kenneth Copeland said: "[Adam] was the copy, looked just like [God]. If you stood Adam upside God, they look exactly alike. If you stood Jesus and Adam side by side, they would look and sound exactly alike."
He also has stated that God lives on another planet!!
"Heaven has a north and a south and an east and a west. Consequently, it must be a planet."
“You don’t have a God in you. You are one!”
Sounds like early Mormonism to me.
My personal advice: steer clear of all televangelists.

kenny said, on national tv, when asked a question about revelation, that he knew 'nothing' about revelation, other than he got 'blessed' by reading it, according to Rev 1:3...
It's $ICKO to get 'blessed' by reading of brethren being tormented and killed.
Somebody tell kenny "the law is not of faith": Gal 3,
and whatsoever is not of faith is sin: Romans 14:23.
After 25 years of bible study, he should "know" that.
