Pastor Benny Hinn is being investigated by the Senate Finance Committee and was recently denied entry into the United Kingdom. And talking he is, about the finance probe, his lavish lifestyle and accusations that his faith healings are fake because he offers no documentation or verification that he has, in fact, helped the blind see and the crippled walk. “They question me on why I don’t verify,” Hinn says. "I answer, ‘God never called me to verify. I’m not a doctor.'” Hinn says, his ministry created a department to handle verifications and follow up on the "miracles." "The staff would...

Pastor Benny Hinn: Charlatan or Man of God? October 09, 2009 Lauren Green. Pastor Benny Hinn is being investigated by the Senate Finance Committee and was recently denied entry into the United Kingdom. The press has been bad, he says, because the media doesn't understand him. But the Texas-based faith healer, whose "Holy Spirit Miracle Crusades" pack sports arenas across the United States, is fielding questions about his controversies nonetheless. He says he needs to voice his concerns over the land of his birth, Israel, and the threat to it posed by a nuclear Iran — which he talks about...

Check out this compilation VIDEO of women fainting at the Barack Obama rallies. Real or fake? You be the judge. Perhaps the first couple of faintings were real and the others were copycat faintings by women who wanted to get the attention of the their beloved Obamassiah. Or was this planned by the Obama campaign to demonstrate his hypnotic effect on liberals? Who knows? However, Obama is a piker in the fainting department compared to the Grand Master of Mass Fainting, Benny Hinn, as you can see in the VIDEO below. Until the Obamassiah can approach these levels of...

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Jan. 12 -- Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee touted his candidacy Saturday as a chance for evangelical Christians to lead the Republican Party rather than just support its candidates. "I don't presume that you automatically support me because of a common faith," Huckabee told a group of more than 100 conservative pastors. "I know I have to earn that. But I also recognize that there is a unique kind of opportunity. For a long time, those of us who are people of faith are asked to support candidates who would come and talk to us. But rarely...

HERSHEY, PA - Evangelist Benny Hinn is recovering from severe head trauma after accidentally slaying himself in the Spirit during his Holy Spirit Miracle Crusade conference in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

Benny goes beserk, takes off his jacket and starts swattin' a few folks. People fall down left and right. Click HERE to see Benny and the Jets.

The jet is Dove One, a Gulfstream G4SP that his ministry recently acquired, according to his Web site. Hinn's ministry did not return a call from the Houston Chronicle, but it has very publicly sought help paying for the plane. Hinn wants 6,000 of his "partners" to donate $1,000 each toward the down payment. Extensive information about Dove One on the Web doesn't include the total cost, but similiar Gulfstream jets appear to sell for at...

But any requset for a review is investigated as a matter of policy. ...Trinity contends that the ministry hides its spending from donors and uses donations to provide Hinn with a multimillion-dollar California parsonage...

The vehicle of the expected wonders of the Holy Spirit was American evangelist Benny Hinn, who flew into Nigeria in a Gulfstream private jet with a large retinue that included his bodyguards. He was received at Lagos airport in a motorcade of Hummer jeeps and other...
