Kenneth Copeland’s Tens of Millions of Dollars are Worthless in the Face of God’s Holiness

I ran across an article today talking about Kenneth Copeland’s massive wealth, and I started really thinking about it—the man’s 86 years old. Kenneth Copeland’s version of the “gospel” is a gross perversion of God grace. He has spent decades promoting a theology that promises wealth and health in exchange for faith—a theology that twists Scripture to suit his desires of the flesh.
His “ministry” is the epitome of what Paul warned about when he said, “For the time will come when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears, they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions” (2 Timothy 4:3).
Fleecing millions of people for tens of millions of dollars under the guise of faith is more than just unethical—it’s blasphemous. He has exploited the poor, the sick, and the vulnerable, convincing them that their faith (and donations) will lead to material blessings.
In reality, the only one gaining those “blessings” is Copeland himself. It’s no wonder Jesus spoke so harshly of false teachers: “Woe to you…hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup and the plate, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence” (Matthew 23:25).
As for Copeland’s hope in his wealth, it is tragically misplaced. At 86, death is closer than ever, and his riches will not buy him a reprieve from judgment. Scripture says plainly, “It is appointed for man to die once, and after that comes judgment” (Hebrews 9:27).
The sobering truth is that unless he repents, Copeland will find that all his money, luxury jets, and sprawling estates are worthless in the face of God’s holiness. His only hope, like that of every sinner, is in the genuine gospel of Jesus Christ—a gospel that calls for repentance, faith in Christ’s finished work, and a life devoted to serving God rather than self.
