Are these guys anything like Oral Roberts and his gang up in Tulsa?

Unfortunately, yes. Oral Roberts is thoroughly in line with the Word Faith movement and has identified himself as an adherent, although his origins are somewhat distinct from most of the other more well known Word Faith teachers.
Although Kenneth Hagin is regarded as the "father" of Word Faith, Roberts has provided the movement with one of its most popular doctrines: the "seed faith" teaching or formula. As one website puts it: "Oral Roberts is the granddaddy of all televangelists, as well as being their patron saint...Everybody who has ever asked for a "seed-faith" financial donation MUST tip their hat to brother Roberts."
We can only pray <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grovel.gif" alt="" /> that the Lord will renew His offer to take Roberts "home" again sometime soon before he swindles any more little old ladies out of their life savings.
