Benny Hinn The Faith Healer
Benny Hinn teaching on the trinity.
on tape #TV283, entitled "A New Spirit," which aired on TBN
on October 13, 1990, Mr. Hinn states:
Benny Hinn teaching on the 9 Godheads
"God the Father, ladies and gentlemen, is a person, and He is a triune being by Himself, separate from the Son and the Holy Ghost."
"See, God the Father is a person, God the Son is a person, God the Holy Ghost is a person, but each one of them is a triune being by Himself. If I can shock you, and maybe I should, there's nine of them."
"God the Father, ladies and gentlemen, and God the son, and God the Holy Ghost -- man, I feel revelation knowledge already coming on me here -- I want you to lift your hands, something new is gonna happen here today, I felt it just as I walked down here. Holy Spirit, take over in the name of Jesus (clap). Say Amen."
"This is all in the word, God the Father is a person separate from the Holy Ghost -- totally separate. When we say the Holy Spirit, we do not mean the personal spirit-being of the Father. He's a separate personality. Do you know that the Holy Spirit has a soul and a body, separate from that of Jesus and the Father?"."
That's the least of the heresy he peddles while laughing all the way to the bank.
I played an actual audio tape of him out over the AM air waves (same 50,000 watt station that carries Rush) here on one of the local talk shows. I had taped him while he was ranting about wanting to blow his enemies heads off with a "Holy Ghost machine gun", among other bizarre things like he could raise the dead if someone would just take their dead loved one and hold his/her hand on the TV screen while he prayed. I have that phony on lots of tapes in my archives of kook evidence for future reference.
What amazes me is the "following" these kinds of goof balls attract. TBN is full of them. People are looking for "feeling things and experiencing something". Or hearing about whatever the lastest "prophecy" is that one of the pop-culture religious gurus comes up with. (Never mind if none of them ever panned out in the past). They could care less about sound minded, orthodox Bible teaching. That isn't in demand in today's feminized "experiential ministries".
"Isn't this the same guy who says there are 9 entities in the Godhead?"
I think that comes from the Gnostic gospels. I could be wrong, it's been a long time.
Sound policy.
