BearCub said (paraphrasing): Benny Hinn's preaching borders on blasphemy.

BearCub says: Ok.

Hinn claims that the Holy Spirit revealed to him that women were originally designed to give birth out of their sides.

Hinn admits to frequenting the graves of both Kathryn Kuhlman and Aimee Semple McPherson to get the "anointing" from their bones.

Hinn claims that Christians should not get sick & can experience victory over disease and sickness. He justifies his claim by citing Isaiah 53:5 ("by his stripes we are healed") but ignores the fact that Isaiah was speaking of spiritual healing, as is clear later in the passage.

Hinn says in one of his books: "You will never hear me pray such faith-destroying words as ‘If it be your will, Lord, heal them.’ God intends for you to rise and be healed. Today. Tomorrow. Always!” - but Jesus contradicts him in the strongest terms in the Sermon on the Mount ("..., Your will be done..." [Matt 6:10]).

He places blame on guilt on those that aren't healed, accusing them of a lack of faith, 'wrong thinking' or not following his 'three principles', 'four laws of healing' or 'seven guidelines'.

The bottom line is that the guy is full of crap & preys on the sick and hopeless (pun intended).
