[edit] Standards and lawsuits
I have used Wikipedia on occasion but to read rants like this, so utterly unobjective, is a waste. This is not informational, but mere gossip diatribe. Are there no standards for Wikipedia?

- There no standards for Wikipedia. They allow prople to report gossip and false accusations based on their opinions and dislikes. Wikipedia will eventually end up paying millions of dollars to defend itself in court if they don't put a stop to this! I know a law firm that is currently studying this situation for a legal action against Wikipedia. Stay tuned! 02:31, 19 June 2006 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.149.67.47 (talk • contribs) .

It is probably a copyrighted article, and it has nothing to do with Kenneth Copeland, so I removed it. Brian Kendig 20:10, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I thought that the recents edits were somewhat propaganda-ish, and he/she also removed some comments. Here are the actual comments of the user in question. Logical2u 23:07, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
- The mission of Kenneth Copeland Ministries (and Eagle Mountain International Church) is to teach Christians worldwide who they are in Christ Jesus and how to live a victorious life in their covenant rights and privileges. The fulfillment of that mission takes place when those believers become rooted and grounded enough in God's Word to reach out and teach others these same principles.
- We are called to lead people, primarily born-again believers, to the place where they operate proficiently in the biblical principles of faith, love, healing, prosperity, redemption and righteousness, and to the place where they can share those principles with others.
- We are called to assist believers in becoming rooted, grounded and established in the Word of God by teaching them to give God's Word first place in their lives (Colossians 1:23, Psalm 112).
- We are called to reveal the mysteries, the victorious revelations of God's Word, that have been hidden from the ages (Colossians 1:25-28).
- We are called to build an army of mature believers, bringing them from milk to meat, from religion to reality. We are called to train them to become skillful in the word of righteousness, to stand firm in the spiritual warfare against the kingdom of darkness (Hebrews 5:12-14, Ephesians 6:10-18).
- We are called to proclaim that "Jesus Is Lord" from the top of the world to the bottom and all the way around.The vision is being accomplished through the ministry efforts of Kenneth Copeland Ministries, Eagle Mountain International Church and staff on a worldwide scale through the local church and the use of television, campaigns, conventions, books, tapes, recordings and personal correspondence and is multiplied through the financial support of other ministries of like purpose.
As someone who was once involved in a word-faith church (and eventually saw through its heresies) I must say the article is quite good. I think it might be helpful to mention some of the books which critique this movement.--Niceguy2all 02:29, 28 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Edits by bendineen
I recently deleted the 'testimonials' section, added by someone who obviously support Kenneth Copeland, their comments were simply disguised as neutral by the tag 'testimonials', but I really think it's not appropriate on Wikipedia.
