There are so many people in need on these forums, like the Prayer Requests subforum and even this Healing subforum.
Let's turn our attention to something we can agree on: praying for and encouraging others. Putting "self" to death and doing the work of the Lord, ministering to the lost, dying and hurting right in our own neighborhoods, including our brothers and sisters in Jesus.
Mark10:14
When Jesus saw what was happening, he was angry with his disciples. He said to them, "Let the children come to me. Don't stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children.
John 11:38
Jesus was still angry as he arrived at the tomb, a cave with a stone rolled across its entrance.
Reading thread made me angry. I will probably sound a bit incoherent b/c of it, but I still feel like writting this.
You all sound like a bunch of legalists; pharisees. Before accusing someone else to be a false prophet, how about looking at your own fruit first? Where is your holiness? How much do you pray? How many do you lead into the kingdom of God? I'd dare to say that many of you watch more TV than pray and seek the Lord. How about you get some of that wisdom that David had? He dared not touch or even ridicule or accuse Saul, God's annointed. He dared not because he feared what would happen to him if he did.
I would go as far as to say that some of the people who blindly accused Benny Hinn in this thread need to repent. I have seen those websites where you get that information off of. Those people on those website accuse almost every person who actually does something for their Lord and King. I tell you the truth, judgement day won't be good for them.
Those of us who said Benny Hinn is a false prophet do so with good reason, and have the Bible as our witness to how to discern a false prophet.
Note: A false prophet isn't God's "anointed".
When someone says God is going to do something, then that prophecy doesn't come true - then they have basically said that God has lied to them, and to everyone they gave the "prophecy" to.
Jeremiah Chapter 23 comes to mind.

John 1:1-2: - P66 + P75
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.
Dear God I pray against the spirit of evil I see creeping into this thread.. I see that it is not of You.. Father I thank You for those who stand forth against criticism in these last days.. I thank You that souls are being saved!! I thank You that souls are being healed.. I pray that if people come to a healing thread.. they stop worrying about who is and who is not of God and start praying for those who need healing and come before You!!! For there is many who are still waiting to know the gospel and need Your healing touch.. Praise the Lord.. Let us keep doing good works for You and instead of being critical and disagreeing.. Get up and do something for You.. I thank You Lord that there is still time to bring in the souls that are yet to see salvation!! I thank You for You can do something because nothing is impossible for You.. and will use many of us to Your works for You.. We are so blessed.. Amen and amen

Many of these websites you refer to have statements and comments that Benny Hinn has made in the past and they are either his actual voice or his quotes so one cannot dispute the authenticity of them in many cases. Like many people will say: if you are going to prophesy, you had better be prepared to stand behind your words if the prophecies do not come true.
Jesus said in Matt. 24:11 "then many false prophets will rise up and decieve many." Don't know about you but I want to do my homework and read up on these prophets before I start believing someone is anointed of the Lord. There are many of them out there but on the flip side, there are those who go about doing the Lord's work with no fanfare, no hype, no circus and with utmost humility and love for the Lord. I'm not saying that Benny Hinn or others like him don't love the Lord but we are to look at the fruit of the Spirit and the Spirit is meek, gentle and loving, not bombastic, flashy and marquee material.
So you can point your finger all you want because I will continue to be wary of any Joe Schmo who comes along and says he is anointed of the Lord and wants to heal me. My Spirit sent up red flags with Benny Hinn and yet with others, I was perfectly at peace with them praying over me.
