...Chances are you've seen Benny Hinn on TV, performing his miraculous healings. Houstonian Jackie Deleon went with her mother to see Hinn's crusade during his last visit here.
She was suffering from cancer and for her, Hinn was a last hope. She appeared on TV, apparently being healed by Hinn.
After her appearance, she gave hundreds of dollars she couldn't afford to his crusade and stopped taking her medications. She died three weeks later...
Hinn's ministry denied Eyewitness News requests for an interview and a request for a list of healings.

I just love Benny Hinn. Especially when he's chasing that little old dude Jackie around, in fast motion, while Yackity Sax is playing!
I don't know why Robertson/700 club types still have this guy on.
He makes Christians look bad. I will never understand how people think it is okay to live like billionairs from tithes or donations people make. I think Jesus would want you to live in a modest home, have your needs taken care of, and then the rest to help those who really need it.
It is men like this that tend to drive people away from Christianity calling them whackos and tarnishing our great religion. He should be imprisoned with the rest of their kind and repay the millions they pilfer yearly from good people.
That's tonight? Ug. Wonder if there will be anyone protesting him?
He's a fake. A charaltan first and foremost.
Even if his docrtine were not outside the norm, his fakery would be enough to reveal him.
Still, Hinn has been doing his show for a long time. I'm not sure why it is news.
I like Robertson and I also wondered why they have him on.
We usually have the Benny Hill picture up by now...?
Me too, it makes Robertson look bad to have him on.
Snake oil salesmen might take offense at you lumping him in with them....
THEN.....Benny to buy out Robert Schuller!
THEN,....Benny to buy out 'TBN'.....
THEN,....Benny to buy out Franklin Graham
THEN,....Benny to buy out Guru ________
THEN,....Benny to buy out the Dali Lamba
THEN,....Benny to make a Mel Gibson 'Pope' Movie with Michael Jackson....Benny to 'star' as 'Pope'
naw...
/sarcasm
I liked it when he'd slap that little old man on the top of his head! Oh, and that wacky salute with his hat on sideways. Good stuff.
No, it was a few days ago. I didn't notice this on FR so I decided to post it.
He also has claimed that the dead would rise again if you put them in front of the TV set while his crusade was on. Dateline NBC is doing an expose on the guy, or has recently. I think it was supposed to air this week, but I missed it cause I was at church.
