Without faith no one can please God(ref. Heb 11.6). But the greatest of faith, hope and love is LOVE(ref 1cor 13.13)!
God wants you to love Him(Greatest commandment) and establish a relationship with Him in that love.
If you love God, you will always think about His things, His interests and He will be always in your heart and mind :).. renewing of mind. Transformation happens through renewing of mind(for ref. Rom 12.12) . so think according to Phl. 4.8.
Any thought which comes other than these don't think, just stop when it pops up, else it will take you! Filter your thoughts..Practice it until it works out!

Praying in tongues and renewing of mind will always lead to victory! coz u give no room for evil.
When you pray in tongues, pray in your mind also(simultaneously, practice this)as in 1cor 14.15
Dont give your thoughts to satan and always be full of the Holy Spirit!

Andrew is a great teacher of the word. His foundational teachings are indeed good, but I believe if we need to grow, we have eat the WORD in the Holy Spirit!!
Let the love of God fill your hearts!

It is hard to believe you ever actually listened to Andrews teaching, because He answers your questions so many times and so clearly.
All of his teaching is scriptural and by never dangerous, at the least it is liberating.
Jesus said "If we continue in His word ....we shall KNOW the truth and the TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE." John 8:32
So it all the depends upon HOW MUCH TRUTH YOU KNOW!
CALVINISM was ignorance gone to seed from the beginning and IS BOTH DANGEROUS, STUPID, and NOT EVEN LOGICAL.
Unlike calvisms ridiculous illogical premise(everything that happens is Gods will), the truth is that "EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS IS NOT GODS WILL!
IF EVERYTHING IS GODS WILL, THEN YOU SHOULD STAY SICK, STAY POOR, DON'T WORK, DONT EVEN LOOK FOR WORK, EAT JUNK, DON'T EXERCISE OR TAKE VITAMINS, AND DON'T GO TO A DOCTOR-------- BECAUSE YOU WILL BE FIGHTING AGAINST GOD GOING TO A DOCTOR SINCE GOD MADE YOU SICK OR ALLOWED YOU TO BE SICK! or looking for a job since God made you poor, etc.------ THIS IS JUST PLAIN STUPID. USE THAT PEANUT BRAIN GOD GAVE YOU AND THINK PAST THE RELIGIOUS AND NON SCRIPTURAL LIES.

Andrew ALWAYS sites chapters and verses what the Bible CLEARLY says people are not healed.
First GOD NEVER MISSES IT! Imperfect People do......
and if you ever actually listened to ANDREWS TEACHINGS you would see where EVEN Jesus was hindered, and could not heal people and along with other places His disciples were hindered and asked Jesus why.
People do numerous things that hinder THEM from RECEIVING Gods promises. This is pointed out in the scriptures. It is clear througout all the Bible. For one, Satan also hinders and deceives people and thus hinders them from receiving.
Satan came to steal kill and destroy, Jesus came to give you life and life more abundantly" John 10:10
God is all Good and satan is all bad.
There is no evil in God. "Jesus said "satan has nothing in me"
"People are destroyed for a LACK OF KNOWLEDGE" Hosea 4:7

The scriptures clearly show what stops most people from receiving. It was the disciples and peoples " UNBELIEF!" It isn't a lack of faith! (The Bible says "every believer was given a measure of faith")
It is a lack of knowledge and properly using the faith they have been given, and removing the unbelief and hardness of heart which hinders their faith!
Faith appropriates what Jesus already has obtained and given us in Grace.
"UNBELIEF" even HINDERED JESUS FROM HEALING PEOPLE. lOOK AT MARK 6:5-7

Hebrews 11:6 states "Without FAITH you cannot please God"
Faith pleases God.
Faith is the victory that overcomes the world.
and "WE are told to fight the good FIGHT of Faith"

"FAITH comes by hearing and hearing by the WORD OF GOD" Romans 10:17

LOOK HOW UNBELIEF HINDERED FAITH FROM MANIFESTING WHAT GOD HAS ALREADY SUPPLIED FOR ALL IN HIS GRACE.
"FAITH" IS OUR POSITIVE RESPONSE AND OUR PART THAT WE DO, AND APPROPRIATES WHAT GOD HAS ALREADY DONE AND MADE AVAILABLE IN "GRACE".
Matthew 13:58
And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.
Matthew 17:20
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Mark 6:5-7 (King James Version)

5And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them.
6And he marvelled because of their UNBELIEF. And he went round about the villages, teaching.

Mark 9:24
And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

Mark 16:14 (Jesus rebukes the disciples because of their unbelief)
Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.

Hebrews 3:19
So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
Hebrews 4:6
Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:

James 6 states "But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

7For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

8A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. "

HAVING "UNBELIEF" MAKES ONE DOUBLE MINDED AND THAT PERSON CANNOT RECEIVE ANYTHING FROM GOD.

James makes it clearer
First in Chapter 1 : 13 - 17 James states God is all GOOD and all good comes from God. God does not cause evil, or allows evil or tempts anyone with evil because He cannot and we are told not to let anyone say God tempts anyone with evil or causes evil.

Then we are told we are to RESIST satan and all evil and it will flee.

James 4:7 says we are to "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded. "

We have authority over satan and we are told to use it, just as the early disciples were given authority and told to use it to heal the sick.

Jesus told every believer in Mark 16 to use their authority and heal the sick, preach the GOOD NEWS and to EXPECT signs and wonders to follw after the word we preach. Those who fail to do this and fail to expect will not be disappointed because nothing will happen.
IT takes faith and REMOVING the hindrances to faith.
IT is God will that everyone be saved adn healed BUT not everyone will because of UNBELIEF and doubt.
ONE OF THE WAYS UNBELIEF COMES IS THE STUPID NON BIBLICAL RELIGIOUS PHILOSOPHY TEACHINGS LIKE CALVINISM.

Andrew Wommack is one of the best Bible teachers with much wisdom and from the scriptures.

i used to listen to a lot of andrews teaching when i was a new beleiver and a lot of it really transformed my life in a very real and big way. The problem is though that much of his teaching is so lopsided and un balanced that it causes a lot of problems especially for people who are sick and are operating in all the faith they have got and are still not healed, in this amongst other things i do agree that he could be a bit dangerous, it think though there is a lot of good in there though. i love andrew and am very grateful for him, hes a man that really genuinly and deeply loves Jesus and i think his motives for teaching what he does are real. I am actually a calvinist now but i just want to see andrews ministry blessed and i pray that andrew would be able to embrace the gospel just as it is in the bible;like we all should, lets all of us be humble and let God teach us and love our brothers and sisters the way God would have us do...

I have been a Christian since I was 8yrs. old. I was raised in a Christian home. We attended church regularly. No church has ever taught the Bible like Andrew. I have learned more in the last 5 yrs., listening to his teaching, than ever before. My parents taught me so much, just by being like Jesus, they lived what they believed, but their knowledge was limited. I thank God my sister told me about his teaching. My relationship with Jesus gets better every day. I like everything about Andrew's approach, from giving his material away, to those who can't afford to purchase them, to his Texas accent! He truly knows our Father God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit! I'm very thankful for Andrew!

We are looking for a church that teaches the Gospel from the perspective that Andrew shared in his teaching about Grace -The Power of the Gospel. Does anyone know where to start looking? Maybe a resource online that would help us link up with others with like beliefs? We have experienced some truly miraculous things in our lives and will always be thankful to God for what He has done. We ran into Andrew's teachings about 2 years ago while going through a crisis that, along with many hours in the Word, have been a huge blessing to us. We have grown so much in so many areas of our lives- the most important one being a clearer understanding of who God is, how much He loves us, and what he has done for us (not WILL DO- CAN DO- but HAS DONE!!) WoooHooo! These truths released the power of the reality of the finished work of Christ in our lives. Thus we have experienced first hand miraculous healing in our marriage, family, emotional issues, and freedom from a deep rooted addiction. We are hoping to find others that can encourage and support this living, intimate relationship with God that requires daily "walking on water" rather than going with the flow of mediocrity as we were before. I have always been very active in the churches we've belonged to in the past- yet I had always wondered before... "Why aren't we (myself included) seeing more healing, love, joy, and victory over sin, in the Church?" We will never be the same since going through this transformational time in our lives. However, I'm not sure the teachings would have had the same impact on either of us if we hadn't been at the end of our rope and willing to really listen with open hearts and minds. God's timing was perfect as we let down our "know it all" attitudes and gradually let go of doctrines and theology that we proudly held to before without wavering. As a matter of fact- I'm quite sure my spouse would have went to war AGAINST the teachings if heard at any other time in our lives. God is SO good!

My Christian life has been goping from one teaching to the next, each one seeming to getting to the truth. I have felt, having gone through the two year course at Charis Bible college and now teaching Discipleship Evangelism, that this is the final revelation. God Loves Me.

Andrew Wommack's teachiing has changed my life, by knowing that God Loves Me, everything else falls into place. If we remember this one thing, nothing life can throw at you will faze you. If God Loves Me; what else matters?

Don't write AW off, listen to his heart, you will never be the same. Of course if you are not going to let the Bible change what you believe, then don't listen, stay ignorant of the fact that God Loves You.

I used to be a faithful follower of Mr. Wommack's teaching, and downloaded and listened to over 100 hours of his sermons. That is a fact. My iTunes playlist showed me how much I had listened to him. I bought it all. I rode out my faith as far as possible under his guidelines. All I can say is, what he says IS NOT TRUE.

It's still too painful to discuss in detail. But after being under his teaching for a long time, following his words and walking in faith as HE teaches it, I was left absolutely devastated. My faith was shattered. It left me in a spiritual coma, from which I am slowly awakening.

Through it all GOD WAS FAITHFUL. But Mr. Wommack's theology is incredibly flawed. There is no humility. We are told to humble ourselves in the sight of the Lord. But his stance is one of arrogance, and it places the authority and burden on us.

He is one of those to whom the scripture is referring when it says [Luke 11:46; Acts 15:10] "They tie up heavy burdens and lay them on men's shoulders, but they themselves are unwilling to move them with so much as a finger. "

DO NOT FOLLOW HIS TEACHING. YOU WILL GET BURNED.

ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO, I STARTED LISTENING TO ANDREW WITH A BEREAN'S HEART ATTITUDE. I AM VERY MUCH INTO APOLOGETICS BECAUSE I CAME OUT OF A CULT RELIGION. THERE HAVE ONLY BEEN A FEW THINGS THAT I DON'T TOTALLY AGREE WITH THAT ANDREW HAS TAUGHT. IF I CANNOT FIND ENOUGH SCRIPTURAL EVIDENCE TO BACK UP WHAT HE IS TEACHING IN CERTAIN AREAS, I JUST DON'T AGREE WITH HIM. ANDREW HAS AN INCREDIBLE TESTIMONY. HE TESTIFIES THAT HE IS BORN AGAIN & BAPTISED IN THE HOLY SPIRIT AND I HAVE NO REASON TO DOUBT HIS TESTIMONY. I HAVE SEVERAL OF HIS CD SERIES THAT I HAVE COMBED THROUGH OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS AND I CAN SAY THAT I HAVE NEVER HEARD HIM CLAIM TO HAVE IT ALL RIGHT. IF YOU ONLY TAKE CERTAIN COMMENTS THAT HE HAS MADE IN CERTAIN SERIES, HE COULD SOUND LIKE A NUT, BUT YOU HAVE TO KNOW ANDREW'S FOUNDATION. HE BELIEVES IN ONE GOD THE TRINITY, VIRGIN BIRTH, HE TEACHES SALVATION IS ONLY BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH IN THE FINISHED WORK OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE, HE BELIEVES THAT JESUS CHRIST CAME IN THE FLESH AND THAT HE WAS FULLY GOD YET FULLY MAN, HE BELIEVES IN ETERNAL FORGIVENESS OF SINS, HE DOESN'T BELIEVE THAT YOU CAN LOSE SALVATION BUT THAT YOU CAN LAY IT DOWN AND WALK AWAY FROM IT (but I do not believe in losing or even walking away from salvation...so I do disagree on that point) HE ALSO TEACHES THAT WE ARE NO LONGER UNDER LAW BUT GRACE, HE DOESN'T PROMOTE SIN, HE PROMOTES THE FINISHED WORK OF JESUS CHRIST, HE REALLY ENCOURAGES LISTENERS TO STUDY GOD'S WORD FOR THEMSELVES. I do not believe that Andrew is a false teacher, but I do believe that he is fallible because he is human. No born again believers should become followers or dependent on any man or woman's teaching. Study the Word of God to know the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit. Andrew inspires people to engage in relationship with our Heavenly Father and to depend on His Word.

Check out the video on youtube called Andrew Wommack, the most dangerous preacher on television. It will show you just some of the false teachings that he teaches.

I am a former student of his and his doctrine is biblicly sound especially his teaching on the Sovereignty of God. God is sovereign indeed but not the way most churches teach and certainly not as Calvinists teach.

We should be thankful for Andrew Wommack's ministry. Remember those that teach the word will be critized the most.

I love this ministry.

Andrew Wommack is a very wise teacher of Gods' word. He is a man. The subject should be Christ alone at all times.

I thought Andrew Wommack was a nut-job until I climbed down off my religious high-horse and actually tried to understand his point of view. And now, for the first time in my life, I am loving and serving GOD instead of just a bunch of religious rules and regulations. For the first time in my life I am happy instead of depressed, succeeding instead of failing, and loving God instead of feeling condemned. By their FRUITS you will know them. Anyone here speaking against Andrew Wommack would do well to take a good, hard look at their lives. If it's devoid of love, joy, peace, hope, faith, etc., then you can criticize all you want...your FRUIT says you don't know the Truth. I'll be praying for you.

I like his teachings, I find it very interesting that those who oppose his teaching have never really taken the time to actually listen to him. They seem to already want to disagree with him and so they cherry pick his teaching for something they can use. I also want to note that it is typically the ones with Calvinistic background that seem to always want to look for a fight to defend their views. I disagree with much of what Calvinism teaches and can use a-lot of scripture to back up my views but I am not running around trying to expose everyone I disagree with as a heretic. I have been around this for the past 20 years and it seems that the Calvanist's have the biggest tendency to want to dispute and debate people using their intellect. I find the whole phenomenon quite disturbing. Sometimes I think that they feel they have the upper hand on doctrine and it's their God given right to debate everyone they disagree with.

I think it is a great exercise to ask God to reveal the motives of our heart and ask the question "why do I want to believe this so strongly", do I have a psychological need to have all my questions answered by the bible, We need to let the bible study us rather than us study it. If we are all honest (even the most educated bible scholars) have to admit that there are verses in the bible that directly contradict what your theological view is. There are verses that can be used to contradict Calvanism and their are verses that can be used to contradict Arminianism. When this happens what do you do? do you try and twist the scriptures to fit your view knowing deep in your heart that the verse does not fit that way?, do you discount it and act as if the verse is not there? or are you honest enough to admit to yourself that you don't know all there is to be known about the bible and it is quite possible that you can be wrong on an issue. I think there are people out there who can not engage God unless they have all their questions answered and all of their verses are parsed out in such a fashion that it all makes sense to them. God has built ambiguity into the scriptures to keep us from worshipping our bibles and drive us to a relationship with the one who the Bible is supposed to reveal to us. THE BIBLE IS NOT A BOOK TO BE MASTERED, THE BIBLE IS TO REVEAL THE ONE WHO WANTS TO MASTER US.

I was taught and told that the problems we are facing are because of our bad behavior, that we are being punished for "something we did wrong" (whatever that was), and that G-d is using this to teach us a lesson. In my heart I could not believe this...how HE being a G-d of pure, sacrificial love want my family and I to go through such adversity as punishment for our sins? I thought the devil was attacking us because I am trying to walk the walk not only do the talk....Anyway, I heard him about two months or so ago and Mr. Wommack in his very simplistic way taught me otherwise and showed scriptures to back up his teaching. Though we are still facing tremendous attacks in our family (especially my 20 yr old son), I know it is not because we were being bad....and I needed to know this in my heart, mind, and soul. Thank you. I am still learning and hope to really get immersed in the Word and be able to help others.
Shalom

A Great Bible Teacher and a blessing to the body of Christ! 

If you are interested in learning the "gospel according to Andrew Wommack", then he is the man. Unfortunately, his gospel is not in the Bible. Update: the more I listen to this man, the most I believe he is becoming dangerous. He is so out of touch with what the Bible teaches that sometimes I wonder if he is actually preaching the Bible. Christians, beware! Some of his latest herecies: God has no physical body Cats, dogs, ants have more authority than Satan Mankind created Satan Lucifer became Satan in the Garden of Eden God doesn't control everything God spoke Adam into existence God spoke Jesus into existence God became hostage of Satan God is not in control over the world after He gave the authority to men There are limits to what God can do Satan can stop the power of God God will not do anything against men's will The prophecies about Jesus were implanted in mary to conceive Jesus Miracles are conceived, carried to term and given birth by believers All Wommack's words and teachings. 7-1-2008 - Andrew claims new born believers are in spirit identical to Jesus. This is blasphemy. What a nut! Update: 9-2-2008 - Andrew is becoming more and more delusional and actually dangerous. Be very careful when you listen to his rantings. "If you think God is Sovereign, than throw your Bible away" - Wommack
