Summary: I Wonder How Much Of This Is Original?
Review: Before I am attacked by other reviewers, it is worth noting that I have an uncle who is on staff at Hagin's church.This book is typical Word of Faith theology, nothing more. The real problem, however, it is that it is STOLEN from its rightful author, a Christian Missionary Alliance minister named John MacMillan. This was exposed in 1983 by Oral Roberts student, Dale Simmons. Hagin then republished the book with its current title and paid "lip service" to MacMillan in the preface. I can't help but wonder how many conversations with God that Mr. Hagin has made up. Perhaps he really hears from God audibly, but then again, so did David Koresh.

Summary: Anointed Revelation
Review: The author explains that not only do we as Christians have authority, most of us do not know about it or even how to use it. Once we are aware of this authority, we will be able to do the work God has called us to do. This is book consists of only 70 pages but each page is packed with power and scripture.

Summary: Edifying, Encouraging, Powerful Insights
Review: The Believer's Authority will change the way the believer appraches prayer, life and God.
"The trouble is that we've preached a "cross" religion and we need to preach a "throne" religion"." (Page 16) There is power after redemption - a life worthy of our inheritance from the king and access to the throne of God for all who would believe.
Through an insightful examination of Ephesians, the believer comes into understanding of his "inheritance" from God and authority, through Christ, over a defeated enemy; his attacks, weapons,and strategies. Through access to the throne, the Christian believer has an inheritance in this world and the next, from the treasury of Christ Jesus. An inheritance of peace, joy, strength, health, power, provision, love and much more. Hagin encourages the believer to "enter in" and receive all the fullness of God.
There is power in the tongue - even life and death. And the spoken word from the mouth of the Christian is powerful and pursuasive. Power to bless, to heal, and to overcome the evil one in the name of Jesus.
Throughout this interesting and powerful book, I was reminded of the teachings of Smith Wigglesworth and felt agreement in my sprit, as well. Thank God for this timely book and the teachings of brother Hagin.

Summary: Stolen (?) but true nevertheless.
Review: This book The Believer's Authority is a simple but very precise exposé of New Testament teaching on the authority of the believer. Yes, let every Christian be hesitant to critique this teaching since Jesus not only gave us His authority, but sacrificed his very life for it. We are now able to live victoriously just as we see the believers in Acts do and we have the unlimited resources to carry the Gospel to every corner of this planet. Critisism is easy but when one has to fight in the frontlines of Kingdom expansion (I live in Amsterdam, the Netherlands) such helpful teaching is received with gratitude despite some of less clear passages that may reveal Hagin's more human side (although some serious allegations have been succesfully defeated in The True Story by McIntyre). If our church members would do only have as well in communicating Bible truth, I would applaude them and gladly provide a teaching role.
