I have seen videos and websites that condemn Benny Hinn as a con artist, lire , and a false prophet.How can this possible?How can God use Benny to save His people if he is a lire, false prophet and con man? How come lots of other well known God's preachers, servants accept Benny Hinn? (I mean they attend to his programs, invite Benny Hinn to their churches/countries?) How come he heal these people using Jesus' Name and save people if he is not a chosen one to do that by God ?
So you tell me that's from evil power ?Same kind of attack Jesus had from the Pharisees, “He forces out demons by the power of Beelzebul, the ruler of demons” Then Jesus reply to them “ So if Satan fights agains himself how can his kingdom last ? Likewise how can Devil use Benny Hinn to bring people to Jesus? How come its possible that Devil supports for the growth of the Gods Kingdom?
Or is it Benny Hinn is really chosen by God,and all these attack is just acts of the devil to bring down his ministry?

the devil hates God's children--especially those who work hard for God and who are getting people out of hell. that's why he's attacking Benny Hinn. imagine how much he hates him. as for Benny Hinn being rich. God is prosperring him. God is blessing his kids. for an organization of his size, he is not getting too much money. the Bible says that the wealth of the wicked will be transferred or stored up for the righteous. why would God want him to be poor, there is no glory to God in that. I have been to 10+ crusades. all of them awesome. all of them powerfull. Benny Hinn is not a fraud. I have personally felt God's power on his stage and in the arenas. i know people that have been healed. don't listen to the heretic hunters. Benny Hinn is one of the best, most humble preachers alive. he is so close to God and God is blessing him while the devil is attacking him.

There are those who assume that anything supernatural is automatically of the devil. I think fear and jealousy have something to do with this. They assume because such demonstrations of God's power are not operative in their own ministry that anyone who has these things operating in their life must be of the devil. Much of it can be traced back to the erroneous notion that miracles signs and wonders ceased to operate with the passing of the apostolic era. They even produce Bible verses to support their assertions, but a close examination of these verses show they in no way support their viewpoint. They reject the Baptism of the Holy Spirit, which is the primary doorway into operating on the level of the supernatural (although simple faith can bring one into the supernatural without being baptized in the Holy Spirit). They say speaking in tongues is of the devil. Why on earth they would give heed to the Apostle Paul is beyond me though, because he said "Now I wish that you all spoke in tongues" and "I thank God I speak in tongues more than you all" and "do not forbid to speak in tongues" (I Corinthians 14:5,18,39). It really come down to a matter of pride, or perhaps in some cases ignorance. Nevertheless, "For the Kingdom of God does not consist in words, but in power" (I Corinthians 4:20)

What is a cult? Does he ask for money? Does he live in a mansion does he have many houses cars automobiles? Does he condemn others? Is he a charismatic leader who if questioned gets defensive? Is he open to criticism or does he condemn any one who questions his authority as evil?
There is a whole list of questions you need to ask. There are lots of books on cults. You need to read them.
IF Benny Hinn tells you reading them is evil then don't bother reading them then you know for sure you are definitely in a cult.

First of all you have covered a lot of things in your question. I have been to several of Benny Hinn's meetings. I have been a counselor , in the Choir, and a couple of times just in the seats.
A lot of healing and outpouring of the Holy Ghost starts before Benny ever gets to the platform . I personally have seen people get out of wheelchairs , drop their crutches , drop their oxygen tanks. This all happens as the doors are open for people to come into the building.
My answer is watch his program and go to a meeting when he come close to you and judge for yourself

Benny Hinn is a charismatic evangelist. Benny Hinn is a very, very rich man. Did Christ get rich off his teachings? Would you have respected him if he had? Benny Hinn is a charlatan.

Christ is noted for His humility and meekness.(Phillipians 2, Matthew 11, Deuteronomy 18 + Numbers 12)
The devil is unable to copy or imitate such qualities.
Does Benny Hinn strike you as being meek and humble ?
Decide for yourself.

It's not about God. It's not about healing. It's not about devils.The whole thing about big name evangelists is the almighty dollar.
You can be sure that God did not choose Hinn, Bakker, Swiggert, or the other fakes - - - they choose God to make themselves super rich. It's a lot better than working, and the suckers dump tons of money on them.

I don't know, doesn't binny hinn make a lot of money. I'm skeptial about these preachers who claim that they have to have a private jet to take them around everywhere? Why can't they just be like you and me and fly economy class? They want to be rich, that's why.

In 400 AD St. Jerome said: "Beware of the clergyman who is also a businessman."
Ever heard of 'Miller Time?' A preacher by the name of Miller became a millionaire twice by selling 'Ascension sheets' to his congregation. As far as I know, they are still waiting to be 'raptured into Heaven!'
