Benny Hinn and Paula White.....now there's a scenario no-one saw coming, including all the so-called apostles and prophets of the modern era. It takes a yellow rag like the National Enquirer to do the dirty on the deceitful duo. One separated and one divorced. Photographed holding hands in Rome, where they were both checked into the same hotel, Hinn in an assumed name.
Am I concerned? Yes, because once more the name of Christ has been muddied, and I'm sick of it, absolutely sick of it. A charlatan and a 'holy Barbie doll' throwing more mud on the name of Christ, IN the name of Christ, it would seem. Hang on - you shouldn't talk about a man of God like that, you say! (Or a woman of God, to be extremely PC - but I'm not, so I won't). Is he a man of God? Well, let me put it this way. Having butter spread all over it doesn't make a slice of bread a slab of butter anymore than occasionally saying something edifying in the name of Christ makes Benny Hinn a man of God. His heretical teachings are far too numerous, well documented and persistent to lead me to change my opinion that he is not a man of God but one who may have started well but has been, and has, deceived over a number of years. The less said about Paula White, the better. Other than an ability to look like a porcelain doll and display the latest trinkets, I can't think of anything else.
The most concerning aspect is that, for their rabidly faithful followers, it will be business as usual. Benny will continue stalking onto stage to the strains of "How Great Thou Art" and blowing gullible people over and collecting millions of dollars for his ministry and Paula will continue to minister without walls, much the same as they have done in the past. Moral and character failings that are clear evidence of serious problems in the lives of these people will not deter their legions of followers, or the ranks of well-meaning Christians who will not hear a word said against them since "the Bible teaches us not to judge". Sigh.
Why, why, why do people WANT to be blind?
