He is not a Biblical teacher and he is a flagrant fraud, and yes I am a Christian, I just want to know why he continues to garner support.

Thank you for you candor, but your answer is not what I'm looking for here.

Benny Hill is a comedian, whereas Benny Hinn is a wolf in sheep's clothing, preying upon the less fortunate.

God uses what is foolish in the world to confound the wise, and what is weak to confound the strong.
Regardless what you think of the guy, If any lives are being touched or saved for the sake of Christ, then we have no reason as Christians to deny Hinn's ministry.
And, by the way, I can't stand the guy but know some people who have been genuinely touched by God through Hinn's ministry.
Let God do the judging - remember God even spoke through an ***...

because some folks are searching for answers and for some one who portrays a feel good type of religion. I personally find him hilarious. I am a Christian also but the way he smacks people on the head and ears and stuff gees louise. He yells your healed and the poor souls probably have a concussion or ruptured eardrums so they are dazed and he call its it recieving the healing spirit or what ever. Hes right up there with the old traveling shows and yes.hes a fraud and Satan loves nothing better that a good front man. When i said hilarious i meant his almost comical actions, I dont think real thinking or christian people buy into him just those want a easy way.

Benny Hinn is nobody. OK? It's who's place he took that had millions of dedicated followers.
Oral Roberts set Benny Hinn up in business.
Benny Hinn has been on Oral Roberts University Board of Directors for over 19 years. yeah.
Go figure.
hahahahhahaa

Because he comes to your table and is really good with that knife as he cuts up your shrimp, chicken and beef?
Oh, Sorry. Wrong Benny!
Ha, ha!
So what makes Jimmy Swaggert, Jim Bakker or any others any better?
Sooner or later they all get caught with their hand in the cookie jar.
And then they say:
I'm only human!
Of course on TV and from the puplit they tell you to be better than that!
And then they pass the plate!
I remember Jim Bakker, asking his TV audience to call up and pledge so they could buy the two last RCA color cameras for $200,000!
Takes a lot of balls to use the Lord's name to ask for $200,000 to buy RCA color television cameras. But I guess God has expensive tastes!

I am reminded of this verse regarding Hinn....
And through covetousness shall they with feigned (made up) words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.
Also,
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Benny appeals to many of the health, wealth, prosperity, crowd and focuses more on this than on righteousness, self-denial, and taking up your cross... This is a reason many flock to him... they evidently are greatly lacking in spiritual discernment.

Because hes working for the other guy. False Prophets are a good way to go to get support from people looking for God.
How much do you think those shiny white suits cost?

Good question. All I've seen him do is play big "emotional" background music (for dramatic effect) when he shoves people around on stage. And then hands out fliers to people to "donate" thousands of dollars to his "ministry". He's just like every other fake "televangelist" on TV. They're in it for money. They can't go one show or episode without mentioning money, and them wanting it from you. They accept all major credit cards. They throw one or two verses at you from the Bible that have to do with money.to try and justify the scam they run. They twist scripture around to make it appear as if giving them money wins you free blessings from God. God's blessings CANNOT be bought with money. It's sickening, and sad, and I hope Christ deals with them accordingly for leading thousands astray. "Beware of wolves in sheep's clothing."

He is a FABULOUS SHOW man.
You should watch his brother Henry Hinn who works out of Richmond Canada. He too is a Fabulous Con man.
The GOD will deal with them later.
