It's been about 9 years since I've heard Benny.........but back when I had cable and I watched him......................I knew him to be a man of God.
And he is capable of mistakes as any of us.
If any think Benny to be not annointed then it is your responsibility to pray for him..............ask Jesus to open his eyes and to cover him and ask Jesus to bless Benny ..................so far I have heard many curse him. Where is the love that we are to have for one another? If someone thinks Benny has a demon..............then why did they not cast the demon out? Hello...........
I personally think Benny is a good man of God...........Benny Loves Jesus with his whole heart........and if he stumbles then we are to help hold him up...........
I don't believe that any of us have cursed him.....we have simply reported our experiences in regards to seeing him, either on tv or in person.
Obviously, we all have different opinions and feelings about this subject but we must remember that we have to put God before the man and see what the man does with the gifts he is given. It appears to me, and I very well may be wrong, but some here seem to be putting Benny Hinn on a high pedestal and this is something that is not good. While I believe that Mr. Hinn does love the Lord or else he wouldn't be doing what he does, IMO he has also taken something very serious and sacred and created a show around it. It is my prayer that people truly are healed at his crusades and I believe that some are but I simply have an issue with the way he goes about it.
When Jesus healed the sick, He did so in a very spiritual, methodical manner. Yes, there were throngs of people around Him but it didn't turn out to be a circus as I feel the Hinn crusades have turned into. Again, this is my opinion and I stand by them. I do, however, pray for Mr. Hinn and for the people that attend his services, that God will truly touch each and every one of them.
We must be careful to remember who is doing the healing; not the man but God. God has also told us to be very careful when it comes to modern day prophets and He told us that for a very good reason: for our protection.
1Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
4Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
5They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.
6We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
Disagree. One get's a lot of money if you can convince someone to pay for what you do or say.
Anyone can pretend to be a Christian and get paid to preach. It wouldn't be the first time it's been done throughout History
It costs money to preach the gospel in many different countries in this day and age... It costs money to have a program run in different languages on TV in many different countries this day and age...
It costs money to produce teaching cds and dvds and all that goes with a ministry..
If people give to a ministry it is because God has touched them to do so.. they stand before God not others to judge them.. When a preacher preaches the gospel in a country.. he has to first get there on a plane or whatever method he goes there..
Gods people pay the fare because God has given to them in the first place.. so they are helping the people who hear the gospel to hear it.. otherwise if the preacher could not get there.. they could not hear the gospel!!!
Many of us who sit condemning others who are out there doing what God said.. taking the gospel to the world.. are neither supporting the gospel to go out.. or supporting those who take it..
We need to be busy in this day and age and make sure the gospel gets to every man, woman and child.. Jesus returns soon.. we will be ready to meet Him.. will we have done what He said..
If that means some don't understand the way it is done... so be it..
If that means some will criticise.. so be it..
If some get healed along the way.. to God be the glory.. \0/
The gospel is being preached... and that is what God has said must happen..
Matthew 24:14
And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

Trust me, Benny Hinn has more than enough money to do what you said preachers had to do at least 10 times over.

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.
Whether we agree or disagree, support or do not support these types of people, it ultimately comes down to the same question we as christians should ask ourselves: where are we in our relationship with God and are we doing what He desire of us?
but we also gotta ask where our leaders line up with God and if their prophecies that they claim are in the name of God are true. so we dont submit ourselves under false prophets and teachers.
