It can be so strange.Dear Brother,
You a heretic?
You a Calvinist?
You a Christian?
I see you just as a Brother in Christ Jesus, and a part of the Body of Christ!
We're too quick to label, and to number believers onto those who are acceptable or not.
I just look to know how some come across and the reaction that they generate which automatically creates a sense of animosity, without looking at the particular message in question. Which is the case with Mr. Kenneth Copeland. This particular sermon you shared, is powerful, and hits the point on your opening Scripture verse for those who will allow the Word to speak to them. For those who do not view the man with nothing but distain, and I'm sure it may be warranted in some cases, is not for me to say. Brings to mind as I was listening to him preach about Fear/Faith the Words our Lord spoke and is recorded as follows:
Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. Matthew 7:21-23 KJV
In many who read the above words will say yes it is so concerning him and others. What brings to my mind and spirit in these verses, gives voice to; is not the will of God still being done?
Are the prophesies any less valid?
Are those who have devils cast out of them any less cleansed?
Are those wonderful works somehow undone?

I see you brother, and because I do I posed the question to you.
May Gob bless you and keep you.
With the Love of Christ Jesus.

And so strange it is.
