Joel Osteen / New Age / Kenneth Copeland twist Jesus’ I AM Statements

Jesus proclaimed his divinity with his I AM statements (I am the bread of life, I am the light of the world, I am the door of the sheep, I am the good shepherd, I am the resurrection and the life, I am the way the truth and the life, and I am the true vine). Jesus also proclaimed that before Abraham was, he was.

Yet, new agers like Abraham-Hicks, and Word of Faith teachers like Kenneth Copeland and Joel Osteen, twist Jesus’ I Am statements to try to conjure and manifest personal desires (I am prosperous, I am healthy) and to boost self-esteem (I am lovable).

In this video, Pastor Jon Benzinger of Redeemer Bible Church in Arizona, discusses how Jesus’ words “I Am” are ego eimi in Koine Greek, and these words refer to God alone. When others twist this phrase for their own will, they are displaying a lack of trust in God and are likely following the new age / Word of Faith deception that they are their own god and can create with their declarations, decreeing and affirmations.

Jac Marino Chen, who God saved out of the new age and the occult, joins Pastor Jon to discuss how the new age and Word of Faith both twist Jesus’ I Am statements. Jac warns about deception in her podcasts and interviews.

Note from Doreen: I have had comments turned off of all my videos since 2009 because I don’t have an assistant or moderator, and my schedule is extremely busy. You can reach me through direct instant messages at https://www.instagram.com/doreenvirtue/ where I personally read and answer messages, albeit slowly because it’s just me without a staff. If I don’t answer right away, please write again and your letter will pop to the top.
