Lots of healing in Denver

September 29th, 2005

Anybody ever been to a Benny Hinn crusade? I can’t decide if it would leave me laughing hysterically or sobbing uncontrollably.

What a mess. What a mess.

Its truly sad. He makes millions trading on people’s misery and not once does he ever share with them what they really need to hear, the gospel of Jesus Christ. Of course, I guess one can’t share what one doesn’t possess.

As pastor of a cozy 100-member church in Denver, McHendry harbors no envy for his astonishingly successful counterpart on stage. Sure, he chuckled, “When he lines up the wheelchairs and they’re all shiny, and now the people can walk - c’mon, Benny. But I think that showmanship is necessary to reach some people for God.”

This comment really scares me. Is he saying the ends justify the means? The means being tricking people. This is truly sad.

This guy is a doozy. I’ll watch his crusades and pledge shows on TBN from time to time just to see what he’s up to. I’ll contribute a link that sheds some more light on the outlandish claims he is notorious for making. The stuff on this website isn’t just hearsay or empty accusations; there are audio clips of Benny making these claims. Hope some of you find this interesting:
