    Simple. They follow teachings of men instead of studying Gods word. Study to show thyselves approved unto God. I don't find it laughable, I think it is sad he uses people who are vulnerable and unlearned in the Word for his own gain. :(

    He is real a real false prophet. Check this out:

    Orlando Christian Center, Dec. 31st, 1989 Benny Hinn's new year celebration

    “The Lord also says that, Two of his great giants will die in the mid-90's. They've held the torch of revival for the last forty years, these two. One of them has been to this church, and the other has not. One will die suddenly while asleep. And the other will die of sickness. And as both giants die, which will be in the mid-90's, I will shake this world with a last revival. Their death will be the closing pages of this move.

    Did this happen?

    “There will be many raised from the dead in that day. Many visitations of angels that will come as young men knocking at your door.

    Did this happen?

    Benny Hinns has said “The Spirit tells me - Fidel Castro will die - in the 90's. Oooh my! Some will try to kill him and they will not succeed. But there will come a change in his physical health, and he will not stay in power, and Cuba will be visited of God.” “Holy Spirit just said to me, It could be worse than any death you can imagine. There's some question in my spirit on what kind of death the Lord means. I'm not sure. I see him. Uh. I see Cas, I, I see Castro bent over behind bars. I don't know what that means.”

    Did this happen?

    “The Lord also tells me to tell you in the mid 90's, about '94-'95, no later than that, God will destroy the homosexual community of America. [audience applauds] But He will not destroy it - with what many minds have thought Him to be, He will destroy it with fire. And many will turn and be saved, and many will rebel and be destroyed”

    Did this happen?

    “God tells me to tell you, There's a new disease that will arise on the scene--unknown to mankind. It will kill many. The Spirit of God tells me to tell you that, There is a demon spirit (my goodness). His name is Apollyon. He's written-up in the book of Revelation. His name is the destructor, destroyer. He will come from the south--from South America into America itself--and will plague many for living in rebellion. God tells me to tell you that, The drug problem of America will cause many to die with that plague.”

    Did this happen?

    “The economy of the United States of America is going to fall. Many businesses will go bankrupt. Many will bought over by foreign companies, even as they are now. But God says, They will be bought by nations that now are considered underdeveloped. God said, Japan will turn away from America, and will join hands with Europe.”

    Did this happen?

    “The Spirit of God tells me an earthquake will hit the East Coast of America and destroy much in the nineties. Not one place will be safe from earthquakes in the nineties. These who have not known earthquakes will know it.”

    Did this happen?

    “The Spirit tells me that, Europe, who is already now becoming powerful, will rule the nations and influence the world.”

    Hinn’s revelation continued “Oooh. A world dictator is coming on the scene - my! He's a short man. He's a short man! I see a short man! Who's a perfect incarnation of Satan . ... Never in my life have I had anything happen like what's happening to me now. This man will rule the world. The next few years you will see him. But not long after that you will see Me.” (December 31, 1989)

    Did this happen?

    Castro did not die in the dates given--the homosexual community of America was not burned with fire on the dates given. More than a “few years” have passed and we see not short man ruling the world and we haven't seen God. No new disease from south America, America did not go bankrupt, Europe did not rule the nations etc. etc. This is all from one prophecy and make insult to injury Hinn says at the end ... “I wish somebody would make sure to tell me what I said. Did--Did you tape that, brother? Did you tape that? Ooh! I was totally drunk. I'm still drunk. “Lord, if You spoke through me--if what You said is of You--then as I stretch my fingers towards the people, let Your power fall on everyone of 'em. If what I said, Master, is, is of You, let the power flow now.”

    “What did I say in that prophecy, guys? How long did I? I prophesied for twenty minutes? I'd like to know what I said. I was totally gone”(Orlando Christian Center, Dec. 31st, 1989 ).

    As Hinn states “What a way to start the 90's. What a way to start the 90's.” When one loses their faculties and has no consciousness of what they said it is more like channeling a spirit. The true prophets of God never spoke in this manner.

    The rapture is coming

    “The Spirit tells me that, ...following the rapture--a woman president will be in the White House, and that woman president will destroy this nation, but My church will, will be gone. ...A world dictator is coming on the scene. ... I see a short man, whose a perfect incarnation of Satan.... This man will rule the world. The next few years you will see him. But not long after that, you will see Me.” (December 31, 1989 at the Orlando Christian Center)

    On the November 9, 1990 Praise-a-Thon, Hinn told Crouch his new revelation. “Paul, I can say this -- Are you ready for this? We may have two years before the rapture. . . Can I be blunt with ya? I don't know if we have two years left. . . I'm gonna prove to you from the Word tonight, that we have less than two years.”

    Two years makes it 1992, but 5 years after when it was to occur on the July 1997 fund-raiser telethon on TBN Benny Hinn said a newer revelation for those who forgot the other new one, but this is 7 years later “Jesus is coming again within the next two years” (Trinity Broadcasting Network).

    Did this happen?

    That would have made it 1999 - several years ago. Not to wonder, he will say it again if he has enough time. Hinn repeats everything over and over because he is counting on you not remembering.

    Hinn had claimed that God is about to make a major move to anoint the people of God, as soon as Israel signs a treaty with the ailing Hafez Al-Assad of Syria, which will likely be within the next year. This will signal the impending large scale shift of financial wealth from the wicked to those obedient to God (as has been taught to his followers for 10 years). To benefit from this special anointing, you must be obedient to God and sow your financial seed to TBN now!

    The death of Assad on June 10th proves Hinn does not know what he was talking about, and yet he uses Gods name as if he does.

    More recent failed prophecies

    “Yes. The glory of God is going to visit His mighty church. Yes Lord. Three and a half months from now a great event is going to take place in the world, followed by a mighty move of God in the church. Three and a half months from now something is going to happen in this world: headline news, you'll know it. I will not tell you what I see. You'll just know it, and something mighty will follow in the Spirit. God, the Holy Ghost, is saying to His church - Watch Israel. Watch my people Israel. You will know as you read the scriptures and watch Israel. 'For the days are short' says the Lord. 'The days ahead are evil' says the Lord, 'but I have reserved a place for my people, a place of safety, a place of protection.'“ (Benny Hinn, December 29th, 2002)

    Did this happen? NO it did not.

    On 12/30/02 explaining on “ the 18th of December at 2 am I awakened to a prophecy ringing in my heart. I was hearing myself prophesy. ... Jeremiah the prophet said that when the Spirit of God came upon him, when the word of the Lord came upon him, it was as fire came into his being. And he could not hold the prophesy. When the Word of the Lord is given to you, you'll prophesy even if you're alone in that place. And so I felt as though my mouth was about to burst with this prophesy. But what I heard was frightening. That was on Wednesday. Thursday morning at 2 am in fact. And now I'm hearing the words “Rivers of blood, rivers of blood.” And the Lord revealed to me what's coming in the next few days and weeks with this war with Iraq.

    “When all this comes true - and it surely will - then they will know that a prophet has been among them.” (Ezek. 33:33).

    So does this make Benny Hinn a true prophet or a false one? There is not third choice.

    What did God tell Moses? “When a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the thing does not happen or come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously; you shall not be afraid of him” (Deuteronomy 18:21-22).

    You don't have to be afraid that you will lose a blessing, or the anointing or anything from leaving Benny Hinn. In fact you have much to gain. Don't be manipulated by fear to do the right thing.

    Ezek 13:8 “Therefore this is what the Sovereign LORD says: Because of your false words and lying visions, I am against you, declares the Sovereign LORD.”

    Ezekiel a true prophet of God writes of those who follow the false prophets, “And they shall bear their iniquity; the punishment of the prophet shall be the same as the punishment of the one who inquired”(Ezekiel 14:10).

    So now you have heard you are responsible before God to seek truth, not what you think is true. This should be sufficient for anyone who loves Jesus and God's word to reject anything a false prophet says, no matter what his name or reputation is.

    I think it's sad that so many follow him, many are real christians who have not been taught,and grounded in the word of God, they have not been discipled. They will follow anything that appears christian to them. Many are seeking something that looks spiritual, they have no idea what real faith is, believing without seeing. They are people in need who do not even know it.
    Yes it's sad and they need our prayers.

    It shows how gullible the public is to anything that smacks of "supernaturalism".

    I have a couple folks I'd like "slain in the Spirit". Was thinking of hiring the Corleone family or the Soprano family, though, not Hinn.

    Also, massdak, since you started this, would you be willing to start it on the Other Religion forum as well? Same first post if you desire.

    I'd be interested to see what some of our friends there think of the Hinn show! :eek:

    How many people are aware that Steve Martin's film "Leap of Faith" was based solely on Benny Hinn?

    Sadly he is real...I was hoping he was just a figment of my imagination...But that scared me so then I hoped he was a figment of someone else's imagination ;)

    After a discussion here on the BB about the 'slain in the spirit' topic, I emailed my points from that to Mr Hinn's mob. Twice. No reply as yet. Currently debating myself wether to try one more time.

    It is a sad reflection on the state of the Church that this bloke gets so many people at his shows after the number of false prophecies (not to mention false teachings) he has come out with. His fans are either not reading their Bibles, not listening to the things he is coming out with, or both.

    Dr. Bob, good move, Vito Corleone is a better theologian than Mr Hinn ;)

    Ben, I love Leap Of Faith, it is a great documentary ;) I didn't know that about it, but can see the similarities between Benny Hinn and Jonas Nightingale :(

    I really don't know much about Hinn, other than that the chrarismatics in my family think he's Gods law. Around 1990 there were numerous pastors making the claims that the rapture of the church was going to be in a few years. Most put it around 1993. The same thing happened around the 1979-80 years. Its funny how charismatics will push all this current "prophecy" from people like Hinn at you while ignoring that 98% of their previous claims never materialized.

    Benny Hinn is a 'Faith Healer' who wears glasses, is going bald and has a heart condition. His father died of cancer and his mother has some disease. That info is from the article Helen posted...

    His excuse is that it's like Paul's thorn in the flesh. His remarks years ago was you didn't have ENOUGH faith if you didn't get healed.

    Jailminister, do you have a reference for that material? I would like to cut and paste it to a file I have, but I would like a reference for the material to go with it. Thanks.

    There was a time in my life--about five minutes--where I was intrigued by Robert Tilton. His amazing Charisma... his startling....uh.... speech patterns. I so was drawn in by his "touch the screen" mentality that one day---yes, one day, my hand reached out to touch his hand on the screen. I could feel the electricity. I could feel the charge. I could see the static dust collecting around my hand. I was a changed woman.

    Here is a link Helen, do a search on Benny Hinn false prophecy. There is a lot of documented pages on the internet.

    I searched a long time ago under false Christian teachers also and found them.

    Moderators feel free to delete this post if I have gone over the line.

    I for one think that Mr. Hinn ought be indicted for murder. How many people have suffered needlessly or died because they sought his "healing" rather than a competent medical professional? No doubt many. :mad:

    I for one think that Mr. Hinn ought to be indicted for fraud and grand theft. How many poor people have sent him every cent they had? No doubt many. :mad:

    I think the man belongs in jail. Maybe Jailminister can take care of him once he is there.
