Of all the heretical ministries that I expose in writing, that about Benny Hinn draws the most email and letters. His followers defend him with fanatic zeal and unholy fervor. It is amazing to me that he has so many duped. Their angry letters encourage me to continue to expose this false religious prophet. His followers need to be informed, and weak Christians need to be warned.
Benny Hinn told Paul Crouch that the time is coming in which thousands of dead will be raised when their bodies are put in front of television sets while TBN is broadcasting. How a person could make a statement like this, and have any credibility left is a mystery to me. It surely reveals the gross religious ignorance of many in America today. Of course this is the kind of heresy promoted on Paul Crouch's TV programs.
This is what Benny Hinn said on the Trinity Broadcasting Network, October 19, 1999. Please note that the following remarks by Hinn are in quotation marks, for these are the very words that he spoke.
"But here's first what I see for TBN. You're going to have people raised from the dead watching this network. You're going to have people raised from the dead watching TBN . . . I'm telling you, I see this in the Spirit. It's going to be so awesome--Jesus I give you praise for this--that people around the world--maybe not so much in America--people around the world who will lose loved ones, will say to undertakers, `Not yet. I want to take my dead loved one and place him in front of that TV set for 24 hours.' I'm telling you, I can feel the anointing talking here. People are going to be canceling funeral services and bringing their dead in their caskets, placing them--my God! I feel the anointing here--placing them before a television set, waiting for God's power to come through and touch them. And it's going to happen time and time--so much it's going to spread. You're going to hear it from Kenya to Mexico to Europe to South America, where people will be raised from the dead. So much so that the word will spread that if some dead person be put in front of this TV screen, they will be raised from the dead and they will be by the thousands. I see rows of caskets lining up in front of this TV set and I see them bringing them closer to the TV set and as people are coming closer I see loved ones picking up the hands of the dead and letting them touch the screen and people are getting raised as their hands are touching that screen. Now here's something else I see . . . the day is going to come when the gifts of the Holy Spirit will so intensify in the church that young children will be watching TBN and signs and wonders will begin to take place through them. Impartations of the Spirit will come to them" (End of Benny Hinn quote).
The Bible And False Prophets
Here is what the Bible has to say about such false prophets as Benny Hinn. "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect" (Matt. 24:24).
Of course there are many other passages that deal with such heresy that we have not space to quote, but here is one more. "For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works" (II Cor. 11:13-15).
Jerry Falwell Fellowships With Benny Hinn
It is difficult to see how a man who started out as a Fundamental Baptist, and was trained in Baptist Bible College, Springfield, MO, could fellowship with such a wild fanatic charismatic heretic like Benny Hinn. After sitting under the college training of such men as G. B. Vick and Bill Dowell, he now associates with such a list of Charismatics as are listed below. (The following was published in the Calvary Contender, Jerry Huffman, Editor, 1800 Sparkman Drive, Huntsville, AL 35816).
Benny Hinn's `Anointing'TBN's Paul Crouch interviewed Benny Hinn, Sept. 13 on TBN. In the opening exchanges, Hinn appealed to Kathryn Kuhlman for his "cursing and blessing"
Pronouncements at a recently held Healing Crusade in Denver. He said: "I place a curse on every man and woman that will stretch his hand against this anointing. I curse that man who dares to speak a word against this ministry. But any man, any woman that raises his or her hand in blessing toward this ministry, I bless that man ...." The New Zealand paper, Contending Earnestly for the Faith (9/99) mentioned "a dangerous trend toward Catholic-type worship and ecumenical unity" in recent Hinn programs. It said a number of third wave Charismatics were recent guests, and that Hinn is assuming the apostolic father figure of the healing ministry.
BDM editor Rick Miesel said the listed speakers for a 12/3 $100/plate Benny Hinn 25th anniversary dinner in Anaheim, CA included Paul Crouch, Jack Hayford, Oral Roberts, E.V. Hill, and Rex Humbard. Hinn mentioned, at the start of his 10/99 Denver Healing Crusade (TBN tape), that Tim LaHaye and Jerry Falwell would also be dinner speakers. In a phone call to Falwell's office, a Mr. Westover told the CC editor that Falwell "may be there, but he's not going to be speaking." Falwell and Hinn were featured speakers at a 4/96 Washington' for Jesus rally (6/15/96 CC). Hinn said he recently had a long meeting with Falwell. He has left his Orlando church and moved to Dallas. In Jan. he breaks ground for a $30-$35 million Healing Center in Dallas, which will operate 24 hours a day when opened in 2001. (Calvary Contender, Vol. XVI, No. 24, 12-15-99)
