Way to ruin a good jacket.

After seeing his breathless missus on here a day or two back, I thought I'd see if there was any other Hinn entertainment on offer. Sure enough.

Had Benny used this (I'm guessing he didn't, hence these shenanigans), would it count as "resisting the Holy Spirit"?

That's a new twist on an old scam ... 'slaying in the spirit'. Ernest Angely was particularly adept at it, but he had the help of a taser like device under his coat. I'm aware of that because an electrician who was in my Bible study class was called to a Birmingham hotel one night to fix the thing for him when it began shocking him instead of the 'slayees'.

That was like a bad pro wrestling match.

More tasteful than Mrs. Hinn's advice.

This really is pathetic. Play Death Metal, and the guy comes off seeming unholy. Gee, really? I don't like these faith-healer types any more than the next Catholic, but come on, people!

>> Benny goes beserk, takes off his jacket and starts swattin' a few folks. <<

He's not swatting anyone. Look closely; his jacket doesn't contact the people (most of the time). They are being "slain in the Spirit" (supposedly), a five-century-old religious phenomenon, older than premillenialism, dispensationalism, and most other Protestant "isms." He waves at them, and they fall down. It's the frantic editing and the death metal that makes it seem violent.

Let's hope he remembered to take his keys out of his pocket there...

There's always Hinn entertainment to be had.

Yeah that Mrs Hinn out of control one is abominable. What a couple of charlatans.

You don't know the whole story.

Satan had sent down demons to steal his hair spray.

Pray for Brother Hinn (and the phone lines are open so send in a love donation NOW, or you go to hell)
