I know there is a massive dislike for the tv word of faith preachers among many. I wanted to see if you personally feel they are 100 percent not biblical in there approach?

The word of faith is a biblical principle that many would do well to understand.
The word of faith preachers who are greedy and swindle people out of their money will indeed answer for for their deeds just like all of us will.
Anyone who has been saved has operated in the word of faith.
‘Because men have perverted the principle doesn’t mean it’s not a godly principle.
While I certainly understand those who oppose, I also am hesitant to say they do no good. I think of someone who is bound to there home for whatever reason, and listen to a "TV preacher" and legitimately feel hope and movement in there walk with Christ.
It's funny when I went through a bad anxiety season 7sh years ago all I did was cling to my Bible and guess what all I had on TV with Christian TV with a lot of these supposedly false teachers. I thought that I was walking with Christ the best I ever had. Can you imagine if someone came up and said "no you aren't, they are all false teachers! That could of damaged any hope and to some it could turn them in a direction in the opposite direction. I just think we need to be careful.

The major teachers of the Word of Faith have another Jesus, and are proclaiming another and a false Gospel message
I would say about 90%. I know people who found Jesus through watching the Bakers about 50 years ago. It doesn't take people long if they do find Jesus to understand what they are preaching is not right.
They basically teach Christian witchcraft, as in by our words and thought can forced God to bend to our will getting done, and also to them Jesus was not really God in human flesh, but one who practiced the "laws of the Kingdom: as our example to playing God
They were introduced to Jesus and the Holy Spirit did the rest in spite of what they say on tv.
Kenneth Copland is one of the main characters in the WOF.
He said that Christ went to Hell, suffered there and was born-again.
I believe this above and beyond just heresy!
He also claimed that Jesus never claimed himself to being God
