I "cut" my spiritual teeth initially listening to tapes by Hagin, Copeland, T. L. Osborn, Norval Hayes, Marilyn Hickey, Robert Tilton and a host of other alleged "anointed" teachers.
     In the mid 1980's I was a student of Robert Tilton's Satellite Bible School and was taught the various doctrines of the WOF movement by the best known and most well respected WOF teachers.  At that point in time Robert Tilton was on the few mega-churches in America.  He had over 8,000 regularly attending members. 
     Today Mr. Tilton runs his televangelism empire from somewhere in West Palm Beach, FL.  He has suffered two divorces and numerous lawsuits.  It is funny to think that he is responsible for helping launch ministries, such as, Marilyn Hickey and Norval Hayes to prominence. . .yet today WOF ministries would just as soon forget the debt they owe Mr. Tilton.
