Ok. Let us talk about facts. You can find film clips of Joyce Meyer and Creflo Dollar saying exactly core Latter Rain theology. On this very issue Joyce Meyer for instance has actually removed ideas about Jesus suffering in Hell tormented by demons, from her books, between 1999 and 2005.
Creflo Dollar - it was easy to find clips of him teaching we are a god. On his web site it was even simple to find him declaring "command theology" or "confession theology", words have creative power.
Now listening to their general sermons etc. does not mean they address these issues or display what their current take is on them. For me the point is not who teaches this theology, but who believes it.
This is not my mission to do anything other than share what I have found. You call me a liar. Well that is simply untrue. It does not take much research to find the truth, but maybe that is not what you want to hear.
Truth matters, especially when you claim to be a teacher.
If you are interested here is a open investigation into the WOF movement and its issues

Now I have been trained through experience dealing with many different religious groups. It trains you words matter.
Labels also matter, and whether you are for or against certain ideas.
I am 100% against command theology and little God ideas. Now if you are happy with this theology, fine, but I am not.
Now this divide is becoming more important, especially in the developing world, where it causes real world issues, to the extent people are being banned from entering countries, churches are being thrown into confusion and peoples faith derailed.
But for you it is just a matter to labels. You are wrong, but that is not why I am saying what I am saying.
You obviously want to correct me, to I got to laugh, because you cannot correct truth.

I can correct you when you are saying I said something I didn't and that I believe something I don't. In this you need correcting for sure. I never called you a liar and would never do that. Of course truth matters and I never ever claimed to be a teacher...shhhessshhh. I'm just another Christian sharing my thoughts like anyone else here.
I went to the youtube.com you posted and the things the guy refuted were nothing of what I believed or what I've ever heard Joyce preach or Creflo D. Again, I know what I believe and the guy gave a list of things all word of faith people believe. Well, I don't believe what he said so it says to me that his idea of word of faith and mine are surely not the same. Just like with you PeterJen. Showing yet again how IMPORTANT it is NOT to put labels on people.
You say labels matter??? Labels are foolish and cheap tools that take out the individual from the equation and throw everyone under the bus as a group. In your case you are labeling individuals like me by some umbrella of what you say to be word of faith teaching. The problem is I don't adhere to what you call word of faith. So you are dreadfully wrong and you do need to be corrected.
But the more I try and reason with you PeterJen like the bible says we should do., you take the things I say and again attach some meaning to it that is not mine., but your preconceived idea . There is no way to get out from under your prejudice. I keep trying but it only causes more accusation from you.
So, unfortunately I see this back and forth banter going no where because you won't listen to my words, you insist on filtering everything I say through your ideas of word of faith. I can't work with someone who doesn't want to be confused with the facts. Plus, I don't enjoy getting thrown under this same old bus time after time.
