This book will help you understand the error within the Word of Faith movement and the deception behind supposedly fresh "REVELATION KNOWLEDGE". The Lord has warned us in Matthew 24 again and again not to be seduced by false theology. I can hardly believe how I got caught up in these ministries for 15 years. Books like this led me out of this darkness and back to the gospel of Jesus Christ.

This book could also have been titled: How to Recognize Apostacy. Well organized, biblical discussion. Helpful to seekers and believers inclined to embrace the idea that the Christian life is one of pleasant ease and perpetual blessing. The book rightly points out that those led into this belief can become cynical and question, even deny, their faith because God has allowed difficulty into their lives.

An important book for students of the Bible--formally or informally.

I am so grateful to the author of this book. Well, I'm not really sure where to start with this one. I read this book for a class project and found it to be absolutely fascinating. The author takes you through the history of the Prosperity Gospel and Word of Faith movement. This book is a must read for anyone who wants to have peace in all areas of their Christian lives and be free from false beliefs. Reading this book has been like a rebirth for me! It opened my eyes to what false beliefs can do to us, and it's given me the tools to really heal and live a biblical life again! The Information shared in it, has been life changing for me. Thank you Dr. Smalling.
