Liberty University, in response to a heated Internet firestorm over the Benny Hinn Ministries' Liberty University Institute of Biblical Studies (LHBI), issued a statement regarding its firm lack of association with the Pentecostal televangelist:


TOPICS: Current Events
KEYWORDS: bennyhinn; christians; liberty; libertyu
Mr. Dan Reber was allowed to use University name ergo he really wasn't that independent. But apparently his decision to setup this latest venture is causing angst.

"Let the bodies hit the floor" LOL

…now all Liberty needs is to partner with Mike Murdock and constantly invite people to “plant a seed” — ie, give them your credit card number….

I think Liberty is a Baptist University, so why is that news? And I don’t think anyone holds a patent on the word Liberty for a school.

Mike Murdock and Benny Hinn belong to an independent charismatic tv evangelism, and not any particular denomination.

I doubt any of the Pentecostal Church denominations claim or embrace either of them totally anymore. I think they are aligned more with the Oral Roberts theology. As are many of the evangelists, who belong to the ‘seed money’ theology he preached.

I believe in the book of Acts and it’s authenticity and the Holy Spirit, even Catholics have a private sect of Pentecostal worshipers within their walls. The only unforgiveable sin is blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, who is the giver of that gift. So I am careful not to criticize anyone who believes in the power of God’s word, even if I do not agree with their theology.

I agree with every thing you just said. I also think you need to get a sense of humor…...

(Makes Benny Hinn sort of anticlimactic, eh?)

I didn’t realize that this was supposed to be a humorous thread.

Well see, this proves my theory…that you need a sense of humor. You see, the thread was not necessarily humorous per se, but it was clear that certain responses were light hearted. Now, as one without a sense of humor, you made the mistake of missing the humor altogether.
