YOUR A NUT AND YOU WILL ALSO RECEIVE A CURSE IF YOU KEEP ON PUTTING GOD'S ANNOINTED
DOWN .WHY DON'T YOU GO BACK TO YOUR ALTAR CAUSE YOUR GOING TO NEED IT HOW
THEY LET A CREEP LIKE YOU ON THE WEBB GOD FORBID YOU .JESUS LIVED IN THE
FLESH AND I REBUK YOU DEMON FROM HELL AND YOU WILL BE SILENCE WITH YOUR LIES.
I PRAY YOU RECIEVE SALVATION. BY THE WAY FOR YOUR INFO JESUS DID SHOW UP
IN PERSON HE IS LORD AND MY LORD AND HE'S GOING TO WHIP YOUR BUTT IF YOU
DON'T CHANGE YOUR WAYS.AND I WANT TO SEE THIS IF YOU CONTINUE TO PUT ANANNOUNTED
ONE DOWN YOUR AN ITIOT WITH NO EDUCATION
This e-mail (one of many I might add) is here to show you the indoctrination
and propaganda that is warping the already weak minds of some who follow this
revival blindly.
It's bad enough that a person such as the one above, who
obviously needs help, is not being taught about God and his ways, nor being
led to the
truth of the word of God - for many years now the bible has been a despised
book in many churches - but to pump such a gullible mind with buzzwords
and retaliatory phrases (like the much-abused "touch-not-the-lords-anointed")
is a crime that God will surely punish in due course.
Did Jesus not warn against putting a stumbling block before the
weak: "But whoever causes one of these
little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone
were hung around his neck,
and he were thrown into the sea." (Mark 9:42-43 also see Rom 14:12-13)
Jesus also said in many places that we should leave vengeance to God and not
curse our enemies "Bless those who curse
you, and pray for those who spitefully use you." (Luke 6:28-29)
yet in defiance of this Hinn curses anyone who refuses
to subscribe to his antics.
Does it never bother Hinn's adoring fans that the people who expose him and
speak openly of his false prophecies do NOT fall down dead?
This in itself
is proof of Hinn's failed status as a prophet and supposed "man of God".
(See/hear more of Hinn's many failed prophecies HERE
and HERE).
What God is this who supposedly inspires Hinn under a terrific anointing to
place
a curse on anyone who opposes him, but then is powerless to carry out the
threat in practise?
If Hinn's God is the Lord Almighty as Hinn claims, then not only should the
words he uttered be true (and biblical) but they should come to pass. But as
yet not ONE of those who exposes Hinn and opposes his organisation and money-making
activities has dropped dead or even fallen ill. Perhaps they are protected
by a HIGHER POWER than that of Benny Hinn - in which case, logic would demand
that Hinn's god is not the same as that of his opponents.
Another Example:

Modern-Day Prophets of Baal
Perhaps
we should have another mountain-top encounter with a modern-day Elijah (1 Kings
18) challenging these "prophets of Baal" to dance around
their conference halls, laugh themselves silly, groan, scream and wave their
arms around all
day, to see if they really can match
the creative power and glory of the Almighty Father
and Lord of All, and overthrow his beloved ones? If they believe they have
the power
to "overthrow the enemies of God" as they claim, then shouldn't they
demonstrate it? I for one would like to see that on TBN -
wouldn't you?
I find that the blinded followers of Benny Hinn are by far the most thoughtless
and unreasoning people of all, many of them (poor deluded people for whom we
should pray) are not saved but just hoping to see something spectacular in
the same way that people watch
TV
magicians.
Just because Hinn and others have power (as did the
Babylonian false prophets and the Egyptian sages as well as occultists throughout
the
ages)
that is no proof that GOD the Lord is using him. People make the mistake of
thinking that all power is God's power - especially the gullible, untaught
and unsaved. Those
who are disciples of the New Age and the supernatural think that all
power is from the same source, but they are WRONG, dreadfully and dangerously
wrong.
What governs the power of God is the will of God, and his truth. There are
certain distinguishing features about the miracles of Jesus that are not
apparent in the supernatural works being performed in conference
halls for money.
Can you really
imagine Jesus appearing on TV weekly, waving his hand over a keg of water
(which doesn't actually turn into wine but his magazine will say that this
did once
happen in an unknown location far away, so that's all right really) and then
begging for money to keep him going?
NO? Well, why do we think those who act this way are Christ's servants who
are told only to BE LIKE HIM?
"It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant
like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub,
how much
more will they call those of his household! Therefore do not fear
them. For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden
that
will not be known." (Matt 10:25-26)
I'm told that since the Dateline TV expose of Hinn and his ministry (see link
below) he's been even more desperate to support himself on the hard-earned
cash of the
poor,
and begging for large donations.
Report from "Christian
Sentinel": Documented
false prophet Benny Hinn has reportedly been pleading for money more and
more, possibly as a result of last
December’s unfavorable Dateline NBC special that exposed him as a phony. "
Hinn in the last few days is begging, pleading almost groveling asking people
to please send money in," reported a cult-watcher recently. "He has
serious bags under his eyes and the enthusiasm and lightness is all gone. There
is a real change that is noticeable - I wonder if it is signaling a real crisis
in the organization." The Christian Sentinel has been on Hinn’s
mailing list for many years but we received a flyer from Hinn’s ministry
on July 1 that appeared to be a first. It announced a 3-day conference in Houston,
Texas coming up
in September, 2003, with a "special miracle service." The difference
is this time there’s an admission price of $75.00. I guess for once there
won’t be an overflow problem. Desperate times call for desperate measures,
we surmise. Could it be that he has built such a vast empire that it takes
more and more money to feed it?
Well, here's a perfect
opportunity for Hinn to put his own teaching into action, and actually
HAVE to believe God
for
provision.
Isn't that the way it works - you plant your seed and the hundredfold
returns to you? So why is he so hard up for cash - if the principle doesn't
work for him what right has he to preach it to others?
Why
not "give to get", as he teaches others, and start pouring some of his billions
into reliving the suffering
in
the world
rather
than buying
another
plush
mansion for his own personal use?
Kundalini Power?
My experience of Hinn's so-called ministry reaches way back. I heard a tape
of his "ministry" in the Fire on Europe crusade (early 80's??) and because
the recording was taken from a mike pinned to his chest, I could hear more
than the standard microphones in the room picked up.
It was possible to hear
Hinn "raising the kundalini" by repeatedly breathing and hissing
(I had heard this happening first-hand at the time since my office was right
next
door to
a
yoga teacher who came into the room early to spend the first half hour doing
the very same thing). It was disturbing to me that Hinn not only utilised
every word ending with the letter "S" to do this, but also the precious name of Jesus,
which he turned into the sound of a serpent: "Jesusssssssssssssssssssssssssss".
After a period of hissing, Hinn's voice and manner changed and he declared
that the power was upon him. He then proceeded to demonstrate this "power"
by casting it over the audience, who obediently fell down in a heap. (What
was the point of this, if not just to show off?)
" Snake Yoga has taught me a new breath. It showed me how to breathe with
a deep inhalation through the nose, mouth closed, then exhale through the
mouth
on a slow hiss. ... To hear the audible sound
of the breath gives permission to release. ... Exhaling on the hiss
takes one into a deeper level of meditation. A group becomes unified as one
organism
when we are hissing together. It creates a lot of harmony." (Snake
Yoga)
Kundalini yoga was brought to the U.S. by Sikh master Yogi
Bhajan in 1969. Before that, it was a secret, sacred teaching passed down
only to a chosen elite in India. The word “kundalini” means awareness,
and its purpose is to awaken the life force which resides at the base of
the spine and allow the energy to flow through the body. Kundalini yoga combines
classic postures with breathing, chanting and meditation, and is characterized
by movement rather than form. Kundalini is known for its use of “Breath
of Fire,” a rapid inhalation and exhalation, without pausing, through
the nose, pumping the abdomen as a bellows. (Hatha
Yoga)
A Typical [Yoga] Class:
Your class will begin with the intonation of a Sanskrit prayer dedicating
the practice to the sage Patanjali. When the chanting dies away, your teacher
will probably remind you to deploy the three central techniques in the Ashtanga
arsenal: ujjayi breathing, mula bandha, and a variation of uddiyana bandha.
Ujjayi breathing literally, the victorious breath - is a classic pranayama
technique in which the breath passes across the back of the throat with a
sibilant
hiss, like the rushing of waves on a beach or the approach of Darth
Vader. Used throughout the Ashtanga series, it keeps the breath steady and
controlled
and draws the minds attention inward, facilitating meditation in motion.
(Power
Yoga)
"... see if you can begin to visualize drawing that energy
up the connection. As you do that you begin to breathe - this
is a very special charging breath. Kundalini is the energy that
goes through the side of our spine, negative and positive force. What you
do is breath deep into your belly filling the bottom third of your lungs...
energy enters though the top of the head and ends at the base
of the spine... the two energies look like snakes from side view and like
a 'ying and yang' cut from the top. As you hold the energy in your
body, roll your eyes up towards your third eye, put your tounge against
the roof of your mouth and hold as long as you can. When you
need to breathe out or let go, bring your head up like the head
of a striking cobra and with a wide wide smile..[let] our breath
out with a hiss, and let the energy flow through your body." (transcripts
from The Tantric
Forum)
The word "sibilant" means "like the letter S". This is exactly how Hinn meditates
his way into his "anointing". Coincidence, or deliberate use of supernatural
power??
Hinn's "glory anointing"
Where does Hinn's huge amount of ministry money go? "We
spent two days counting the money - I'd never seen so much money in my life".
(Quote from a Hinn campaign leader.) What happens to the projects
he supposedly supports with this money? Is there accountability in the Hinn
ministry? Why is Hinn running from the tax authorities? Why can the healings
not be authenticated by doctors' reports? What happens to the poor unfortunates
who are NOT privileged to a "touch from Hinn" or a visit to the
stage?
“Desperate people, the really desperate ones, the ones
that break your heart are at the back of the crusade; they won’t
let them up in the lines. The broadcasts of Benny Hinn’s crusade
in Buffalo did not include what our hidden camera captured. This man was
escorted from his seat by security guards after crying out
for Pastor Benny to touch his apparently ill son. I wanted to take my son
up there and get prayed. That’s all I wanted,” he
said. (From http://www.tntmirror.com/friday/jan03-03/column01.htm
but this link no longer works - text saved to hard drive.)
How do people feel when they don't get better after being told
"you're totally healed" and how do families cope when their loved ones die
after
having their hopes raised in such a despicable way? Does nobody care??
Does God not see??
Be very sure that God DOES see and know all that is going on.
He hears the hurting hearts, he sees the bitter tears of disappointment, he
sees the poor throwing money they cannot afford into the bottomless buckets.
While you may be scratching around for your next meal, Hinn is sitting pretty
on mounds of money:
"We counted the money for two days... I have never seen so
much money in my life," says Charles Babbler, who hosted the Benny Hinn
miracle crusade in April, attended by an estimated 1.2 million faithful. -
Daily Mail
& Guardian, Johannesburg, South Africa, June 7th, 2000.
Why are there so many inconsistencies in Hinn's life story -
why can't he remember the facts about his parentage and the events of his life?
(See HERE)
If there is a God (there is) and if there is justice (there is)
and if God's ways are anything like they are reported to be in His word (they
are) then I would not want to be in Benny Hinn's shoes. We should pity him
perhaps because of the wrath of God stored up against him and all such charlatans.
We do not need to "judge" people like Hinn because we can safely
leave that to God, who sees all and knows all.
Oh, and by the way, dear anonymous correspondent, thank
you very much for giving me this prompt to expose yet more of Hinn's lies and
deceptions.
If you had not written I might have kept quiet. And may our loving Father
forgive you and open your eyes to your delusion. Amen

Excuse The Mess!
You may have noticed that parts of the website are changing.
I apologise for the disruption and lack of coordination during this time. I
have started the long task of updating all the pages.
This site has been around since 1995 or earlier, and it's showing
its age. In addition, many pages are still in their original rudimentary format
and have never been updated. I would have taken on this task much earlier if
I'd had the time.
Because of the age of some of the articles and their subject
matter, I will be archiving many of them. However, they will still be available
to view.
I hope you approve of the new front page(s). [The second index
page is still there because so many people have bookmarked it or linked to
it, so I do not want it to disappear.]
I am striving to make the site fast loading, accessible and simple
to use. I am not going to use fancy graphics, animations, music, and all the
other eye candy found on the Internet. Whilst I could have incorporated Flash,
java applets, and other bells and whistles, many feel that these only get in
the way and are irritating. (Also, older browsers have problems displaying
such things.)
I have also decided to avoid a framed site. Many or most sites
on the Internet do use frames, and they are certainly effective for navigation
purposes, but there are still drawbacks with frames. For one thing, it's difficult
to bookmark a page on a framed site (and I know many of you like to bookmark
my pages!). But even more importantly, search engines have not yet entered
the 21st century, and they do not know how to properly follow the links on
framed sites for inclusion in their directories.
Given that many people find this site by searches online, I have
opted to go for placement in search engines rather than to make the whole site
framed. (A few pages will remain in frames however.)
I believe that the new site, when it is done, will be accessible
to 99 percent of visitors. A small number of people using out of date browsers
or unusual browsers may have problems (for instance with the style sheets,
and a few of the java enabled pages. In addition, if you have anti pop-up software
running or do not allow javascripts you might need to make a few adjustments.)
This is all the News Flash for the time being, allowing me more
time to work on the site. Please be patient.
