HINN IN FIJI-- 2006

Christian
Research Service Issues A Challenge
to the Officials and People of the Fiji
Islands
Christian Research Service is just one discernment ministry among many here in
the U.S. and overseas that has spent years conducting extensive research on Benny
Hinn, and informing the body of Christ about Hinn's false teachings, false prophecies,
false healings and lavish lifestyle.
Since the early 1990's, Benny Hinn's ministry has been under constant criticism--specifically
from cult evangelists, apologists, theologians, pastors and former members of
his churches--specifically for what he has done, said and taught during his telecasts
and crusades.
And there are plenty of b ooks, videos, DVDs, articles, news releases, news media
documentaries and Christian websites that expose his deception.

According to Hinn's website and regular reports streaming in from online news
sources in Fiji, Hinn is scheduled to conduct his first healing crusade in Suva,
Fiji in January 2006, where an estimated 300,000 may be in attendance.
But Hinn's visit to Fiji isn't without its own controversy. The clanging chains
of questions and doubt are already rattling in a city with an estimated http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/1834.htm
population of 167,000 people .

'Put Benny Hinn to the Biblical test. If he fails, put him back on the plane!'
Every
year the suffering and dying flock to Benny Hinn's healing crusades with a hope
and a prayer that This will be their day for a healing. But they leave the same
way they came in--suffering and dying. Precious, innocent children, whose bodies
have been contorted, wilted, misshapened and tortured by Multiple Sclerosis and
Spina Bifida, leave Hinn's crusades in wheelchairs.
Furthermore, those confined to wheelchairs are always placed in the rear of the
crusade building, away from the main audience, and away from Benny Hinn and the
stage where he conducts his "miracles."
It stands to reason, if Benny Hinn had the true Biblical gift of healing, he would
go to the hospitals and emergency rooms here in America and around the world.
But he doesn't, because God does not work miracles through Benny Hinn.
If the mere thought of this doesn't bring you to tears, then your heart has been
hardened, possibly to the point of no return.
Therefore, Christian Research Service issues the following challenge to the Fijian
officials and people: Put Benny Hinn to the Biblical test (1 Thessalonians 5:21;
1 John 4:1).
As a suggestion, once Hinn's plane lands in Fiji, Christian Research Service suggests
that the Fijian officials immediately whisk him and his entourage away http://www.health.gov.fj/contacts.htm
to the nearest hospital . If Hinn has the true, New Testament gift of healing,
the bedridden and lame will walk; the diseased will be healed; the weak will be
made strong; amputees will grow new limbs; children confined to wheelchairs with
twisted bodies will be made whole; the suffering will find peace; the incurable
will be miraculously cured; broken bodies will be mended; the blind will see;
the deaf will hear; the dead will be raised to life.
But if he fails the Biblical test, put him back on the plane!
Is this too much to ask of a man who claims to receive visions and divine revelations
from God, and visitations from Jesus Christ? Sincerely in Christ,
Bud Press, Director
