No, being "slain in the Spirit" is not a biblical term, and there is nothing in all Scripture that supports the practice of this garish farce. If it belongs anywhere at all, perhaps it would be at a Barnum and Baily circus or in a freak show at a carnival. But in an assembly of God's people? Never! --Hank | ||||||

The burden of proof is upon the promoter or practitioner of the 'slain in the spirit' antics. Ask him to produce incontrovertible scriptural proof that justifies the practice. Scriptural proof. Not what Benny Hinn says or does! Benny Hinn's opinion on theological matters is no better than mine, and mine isn't worth a cup of yesterday's coffee :-) The word of God, and that only, is the authority, the SOLE authority, for our faith and practice. Scripture alone -- not the opinions and practices of TV charlatans or anyone else -- is God-breathed and is profitable for doctrine (teaching), for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. See 2 Timothy 3:16. We all of us have need to be a Berean, (see Acts 17:10,11) and search the Scriptures daily in order to ascertain whether what we are being taught and asked to believe is so. If the doctrine we hear is not to be found between the covers of God's word, we may rest assured that that doctrine is false, bogus, ascriptural, and totally worthless. Of such is the deceptive 'slain in the spirit' foolishness. --Hank | ||||||
