5.0 out of 5 stars McIntyre Sets the Record Straight, July 14, 2004

By 

James G Mullen (Alexandria, VA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: E.W. Kenyon The True Story: Includes previously unpublished material from his personal diary and sermon notes (Paperback)

Having read several of Kenyon's life-changing books, McIntyre's book is an extremely interesting read. The book is well-written and is extremely well researched and documented. With a wealth of quotes, anecdotes, and details of Kenyon's life heretofore unpublished, McIntyre totally disarms the critics, removes misconceptions about the message of faith, and properly restores Kenyon's reputation as one of the finest of God's end time writers.

If you are one of the many Christians whose ears have been poisoned by listening to other misguided ministers malign and criticize E.W. Kenyon's books as heretical, you owe it to yourself to read this book! From it, you get a glimpse of Kenyon's heart and motivation in writing his books, his great love for his Lord and for people, and solid proof that Kenyon's message was firmly planted in orthodox soil. (In my opinion, anyone who labels Kenyon as heretical after reading McIntyre's book is attempting to willfully misunderstand Kenyon's writings.)

I would highly recommend any honest, thirsting heart that wants to know God better and anyone who wants to be everything that God wants him to be in Christ, to read all of E.W. Kenyon's books. The revelation that Kenyon unveils in the Word of God makes "ordinary" Christianity extraordinary, and will totally change the person who grabs hold of it. No wonder the devil hates Kenyon's books!

Thank you, Joe McIntyre, for writing this book and "setting the record straight." Proverbs 18:17, John 7:51

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Book, June 7, 2000

Mr. McIntyre has done an excellent job of presenting the other side of the story concerning E.W. Kenyon. If you are not colored by bias or prejudice to the Word of Faith, yet you have read the books by D.R. McConnell and Hank Hanegraaf then please by all means purchase this book as well. Along with that please also purchase "Christianity in Power" by Michael Bruno. This books will help you to see Word of Faith doctrine and teaching from another perspective.

Although I would not endorse all teaching that comes from Word of Faith (or any other church, movement, or organization for that matter), I would at least examine both sides of the issue and give it a fair assessment. "Do not judge according to APPEARANCE, but judge with righteous judgement." are the words of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Please examine all evidence before passing judgement on a brother or sister in Christ.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, the truth about the man behind the Faith Movement, December 26, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: E.W. Kenyon The True Story: Includes previously unpublished material from his personal diary and sermon notes (Paperback)

This is the book that has been long awaited by those of us who feel that D.R. McConnell's portrayal of E.W. Kenyon's theology was off base and biased. McConnell's thesis may have earned him his Master's Degree but it did little to explain the true story behind Kenyon and his life.

In this work, Joe McIntyre brings to light interesting and very relevant facts that McConnell et al did not have access to or refused to consider. This alone proves that McConnell had a bone to pick with the "faith" movement and Kenyon was his scape goat. If McConnell could show that Kenyon was "cultic" then he could very well assert that many in the modern Faith movement are as well since it is widely known that a majority [of faith teachers] are widely read in Kenyon. But once again truth prevails as the book tells the whole story and corrects McConnell's mistaken thesis. The Bible is proven true once again when it states that a matter seems right until the other side has had it's say.

If you have been biased by McConnell, Hanagraaff or other "pop" apologists who portray Kenyon as a cultist you would do yourself a great service to buy this book and learn the "other" side for a change. I think you will agree that Hanagraaff, McConnell and others have misrepresented Kenyon and what he taught in ways no one would think possible given the facts at hand.
