Ten Reasons NOT To Reject Word-of-Faith Teachings

Troy J. Edwards Sr.

Revised, Edited and Complete

A refutation of Tricia Tillin's Tract, "Ten Reasons to Reject Word of Faith Teachings." This tract condenses the thoughts that the majority of anti-Word-of-Faith ministries have towards the movement and presents them in logical form. It is often cited on discussion forums, and sometimes copied and pasted by those opposing the movement (and not always with proper credit to its author). Due to its concise nature and logical format, it makes it that much easier to respond to. Allow me to point out that I have no personal agenda against Tillin. I don't know her and have never spoken to her. But she has publicly attacked a movement that I am aligned with and since others have cited her tract as an authority on the subject, it is worthy of a response. Her track can be read by clicking here
