Election Deception! Copeland's false
prophecy
AMERICA was swept into a new beginning by Kenneth Copeland a few years
ago! Did you know that? He spoke in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 18, 1996 at a
Word of life Church service. Copeland and the Word of Life Church of Honolulu
claimed to bind Satan and set America free on a wonderful new course.
CONFUSION ABOUT SCRIPTURE! = Copeland quoted,
"Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall AGREE on earth as touching any
thing that they shall ask, IT SHALL BE DONE for them of my Father which is in
heaven. For where TWO OR THREE are gathered together in my name, there am I in
the midst of them." Matt. 18:19-20.
True to the speakers style, he misrepresented Gods promises!
Copeland swept Scripture from its original meaning and extended it for his own fantastic
claims. Now two years later, either God failed or the preacher's great swelling
words embellished God's Word! You decide.
DECEPTION ABOUT THE FUTURE! =Then he announced,
"We are going to agree together tonight that God's will will be carried out.
And that whosoever is elected as president of the United States and whomsoever
is elected in the congress of the United States, WILL HEAR AND OBEY THE VOICE OF GOD
ALMIGHTY FOR THE NEXT FOUR YEARS IN THIS NATION." (remember his theology is
there is no such thing as praying God will, what we say in faith we will possess)
The Word-Faith crowd reeled in elation! Mayhem broke out! What they speak will come to
pass. Really! Time will reveal a false prophecy. Has the White House truly listened
and responded to the will of God? Like excited children, the charismatic crowd
believed this false teaching, cheering in agreement and clapping in expectancy.
Sincere but gullible believers, were put under the impression that American leaders would
be righteous today!
Copeland then prayed, "And for the next four years, we fully PLAN TO
BE LED OF THE HOLY GHOST IN THIS NATION! And we ask You to see to it that
whomever is PRESIDENT, VICE-PRESIDENT, whomever's in the congress, will hear the
voice of the living God and carry it out! And if there is ANYONE
IN OFFICE that refuses to do that, we're asking You Lord as a congregation of people, and
WE AGREE THAT YOU WILL DO IT, that You'll GET 'EM OUT OF OFFICE and put somebody in there
that will! In the name of Jesus. Hallelujah! Hallelujah!"
You can say praise the Lord all day, but lets look at the election
results, where are we today?
Is this Biblical Christianity or just more foolish hype, name it and frame it, blab and
grab words? Is he a prophet who praises the Lord while misrepresenting His
name! The Lord had nothing to do with this one. Or maybe they didn't have enough
faith to see it through.
Is there an unusual righteousness in America's leadership now? America is currently
rocked by severe immorality, abortion, and deceit in Washington, D.C.! So is our
country, where's the revival that Copeland and others have promised. the only people that
seem to get affected are the Christians. While the blind lead the blind outside the church
there is little difference inside either!
Feel the power. The Word-Faith crowd agreed that they bound Satan! Copeland
said, "WE BIND YOU SATAN in the name of Jesus. This nation doesn't belong
to you, it never has and never will. In the name of Jesus, YOU COME DOWN
from your place of authority and you crawl in the dust like God told you to in the
Garden of Eden. In Jesus name! NOW AGREE with that and say Amen!
Hallelujah. Glory to God. Glory to God." Imagine a charismatic
congregation reducing the devil to a helpless prisoner! If Satan is bound day after day
whose the joker that keeps letting him loose?
It's easy to agree and let the gravity of a false prophecy bring you down! We are
not instructed to talk to the devil or brag about binding Satan! We are dependent
upon the Lord to rebuke him! Jude 9.Where's this authority they boast about? It
didn't work !
This is not surprising since he has said many things before that are a clear contradiction
to the bible and Jesus.
Copeland prophesied, As Jesus is speaking through him at three day victory
camp in Dallas Tx.
"Don't be disturbed when people accuse you of thinking you're God.
Don't be disturbed when people accuse you of a fanatical way of life. Don't be disturbed
when people put you down and speak harshly and roughly of you. They spoke that way of
me, should they not speak that way of you?
The more you get to be like me, the more they're going to think that way
of you. They crucified me for claiming I was God. But I didn't claim I was God;
I just claimed I walked with him and he was in me."Hallelujah. that's what your doing.
(printed in Voice of Victory vol.15.no.2 1987)
Here is a conversation with Paul Crouch on TBN, after the fall out on this very subject
of Copeland's prophecy. {Crouch}"Were still questioning what was said about that
prophecy, {Copeland}" that prophecy never mentions the son of God, it never said
anything about the son of God "Crouch what did it say ?" it said I did not
claim to be God!" thats all it said." {Crouch }"In other words in
so many words your right nowhere in the NT did he literally get up and, (Copeland
interjects "preach and say I am God ") say I AM God did he. Now I stand
corrected."
Go to Walter Martins warning on Copeland's false prophecy
( Now it doesn't matter what Copeland thinks he said, but what did Jesus
think he said. Remember this was Jesus speaking through Copeland and he denies What the
bible teaches and the core teaching of Christianity)
IS ANYONE PAYING ATTENTION! WHAT DOES IT TAKE FOR
SOMEONE WHO FOLLOWS HIS TEACHINGS TO FINALLY ADMIT HE'S WRONG ?
