Whaaat? Come on bro you're just shooting yourself in the foot. Why focus on the number nine?

You sound like you missed the point lad. Well ya did didn't ya! It's demonic because it's not God's teaching, therefore who's teaching is it? Teachings are either of God or of the Devil, right? So where does this teaching that God is 9 "parts" come from?

Well, have a think mate.

Question: "How is the Trinity not tritheism?"

Answer:
The doctrine of the Trinity is at the very center of the Christian faith. That God is triune in nature is affirmed not only in Scripture but also in the early ecumenical creeds of the church—specifically, Nicaea (A.D. 325) and Constantinople (A.D. 381). The doctrine is essentially that God is one in being while existing as three co-equal, co-eternal Persons, namely, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

One often-heard objection to the Trinity is that the doctrine logically entails tri-theism (a belief in three gods). But is this criticism valid? Is Trinitarian theology at odds with the clearly taught monotheism of the Hebrew Scriptures? Or did the early Christians get it right when they upheld the monotheism of the Old Testament while at the same time affirming the full deity of three distinct Persons? To answer this question, we need to look over the biblical data. The Bible clearly affirms that there is but one God (Isaiah 43:10; 1 Corinthians 8:4). In addition, the Bible teaches the deity of the Father (John 6:27; Romans 1:7; 1 Peter 1:2), the Son (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 1:2; Titus 2:13; Colossians 1:16-17), and the Holy Spirit (Acts 5:3-4; 1 Corinthians 3:16). Moreover, the biblical writers go out of their way to affirm that all three Persons are distinct from each other (Matthew 28:19; Romans 15:30; 2 Corinthians 3:14). So, while it is true that the word trinity is not found in the Bible, the concept most certainly is.

Does the fact that there exist three divine Persons entail that there exist three separate gods? The answer is no. The same Scriptures that affirm that all three Persons of the Trinity are divine also unequivocally affirm monotheism (Deuteronomy 4:6; 1 Timothy 2:5). So, what are we to do with this tension between the idea of three divine Persons and monotheism? A helpful clarification involves what we mean by the word person.

Person can be defined as “a center of self-consciousness.” A person has a mind, emotions, and a will, can communicate with others, and is capable of performing actions. When we speak of the concept of personhood as it relates to the Trinity, we are describing self-distinctions in God. All three Persons of the one triune God possess the complete attributes of deity. All three Persons are truly divine, yet eternally distinct from one another. The divine Persons can and do communicate with each other (John 17:1-26; Hebrews 1:8-9). Essentially, God has three centers of self-consciousness. Yet this one Being (the triune God of Scripture) possesses one indivisible essence. There is only one Being that is God, and this one Being is tri-personal, with each of the three Persons having full possession of the divine nature.

No, he's saying much worse. He's saying those 3 persons are broken down into 3 parts.
Benny Hinn is not saying that God is nine persons. Rather, he is simply explaining each part of the trinity in detail.

The "trinity" is complete in the three persons of God. It's not neccessary to break it down into 9 parts. Each part of the trinity DOESN"T HAVE a body, soul and spirit...each part of the trinity is ONE PART that forms the whole.

Benny Hinn is simply making stuff up. There's nothing to suggest what he says in the Bible. It's pure conjecture. Now, if you're telling me Benny Hinn has special revelations from God that aren't in the Bible, then I'll tell ya that that's EVEN WORSE than what we're discussing right now.

The Bible only tells us what we need to know. A soul, spirit, & body of a member of the trinity doesn't contradict who God is & what God does.

The Bible is the sole source of Truth, not just what "we need to know."

There's no other way to gain information about God's nature, except through the understanding given to us in the Bible. Nothing works without what's in the Bible. Even seeing God's glory in nature, has no context without the Bible.

Yes, it does contradict who God is, 'cos God doesn't present Himself that way. God presents Himself as three complete persons, Father, Son, Holy Spirit. He does not then go on to say that each person has three separate states, or parts.

But a trinity made up of 3 and 3.
Benny Hinn does not believe God is nine persons. He believes God is three but one. Each member of the trinity functions in a similar way that we do since we are made in God's image. Benny Hinn broke down each member of the trinity into three parts. Those smaller parts are not people. It is just his way of helping us understand God better.
