Bible Question: Is it Biblical to throw the anointing of the Holy Spirit around like Mr Benny Hinn does at the crusades?? (To me it looks like a side show and I do not feel it glorifies God in any way) |
Bible Answer: I don't feel Mr.Hinn is throwing anything around,I do feel he is doing as God tells him to do. I have been to one of his crusades and the anointing of the Holy Spirit was very strong. I aslo witnessed him throwing(as you called it) the Holy Spirit at the audience and I to fell into my chair. It wasn't like someone pushed me but there was a presence there that made me feel weak and I fell into my seat. I do know however that the Bible tells us not to speak evil or against Gods anointed. If Benny Hinn is Gods anointed I am careful what I say. If its a matter we aren't sure of we shold be silient, or pray for God to reveal the truth to us. Please don't think I am saying you are speaking evil of Mr. Hinn, because I don't. I just feel we should be careful.Even King David would not speak evil or against King Saul. liza7girl |
