Answers for the critics of the Faith Movement

I spoke with the author personally several years ago by phone about his book and the attacks on the faith message (as it is called). With honest, insightful tact, Mike Bruno sets the record straight and shows how Hanegraaff and others have distorted and twisted the messages of the faith teachers and have made them say things that don't even resemble the truth. The saddest thing that these critics do is to attack the men and their integrity instead of sticking with the issues of theology. This book keeps the debate limited to the issues and shows line by line what scripture actually teaches and what the faith teachers actually teach NOT what Hanegraaff and others have said they teach.To echo another reviewer, do yourself a favor and get this book and the book E.W. Kenyon and His message of Faith: The True Story. Only after reading these two books will you have all of the facts in order to make a true analysis. If your mind is made up and you are a critic of the faith message then for God's sake DO NOT BUY THESE BOOKS as they will be very damaging to the party line!

A Good Reply To Christianity In Crisis

Christianity in Power refreshingly presents the Word of Faith controversy from another viewpoint. If one is going to read "Christianity in Crisis" or "A Different Gospel" they would do well to also purchase this book as well as "E.W. Kenyon: The True Story" for a fair analysis of Word of Faith. You can then listen to both sides of the issue. So far many of the people who praise the works by Mr. Hanegraaf and Mr. McConnell have only had their exposure of this movement by reading those books and have judged the Word of Faith by them. They have never bothered to see the other side. Many others are colored by prejudice and bias and will never see the other side of this issue no matter how well it is presented. Finally, some have been hurt by "extremists" in the Word of Faith and many of these have never studied the Bible for themselves. As soon as something does not work out for them they go on the attack. Mr. Hanegraaf and Mr. McConnell books provide them with ammunition for those attacks. However, if you truly want to "judge with righteous judgement" (John 7:24) then please examine ALL material related to this matter. This book is a good start.

An excellent counter to Hank Hannegraaf

I have challenged book stores who carry Mr. Hannegraaf's "Christianity in (sic) Crisis" to carry this book as well. Mr. Bruno writes with candor, humility, and compassion. His comments on the Book of Job are especially insightful. In an age in which the Biblical message of faith has been grossly maligned and misrepresented, this book is a real breath of fresh air. Highly recomended!
