The Word-Faith teachers, such as Kenneth Hagin, like to assert that their teachings have arisen from the Pentecostal movement. How does this explain the many peculiar and bizarre elements in their teachings?

I would like to suggest another source for their novel ideas. He is the neo-Platonist philosopher, Plotinus (AD 204-70).

There are some very striking similarities between the teachings of the faith movement and this long dead philosopher.
