Maybe somebody can do a song like the "Pants on the ground" song.

"Lookin' like a fool when you're pushed on da ground"

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

I don't make it a habit of making fun of any ministry to any degree, whether I agree with it or not, for fear of she-bears.

I will say, however, that that video made him look like a ninja laying the smack down.

And people wonder why BH and Todd Bentley give Christianity a bad rap!

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

TV in general has given Christianity a bad rap.

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

I wish I had the power BH is supposed to have. I'd go into every hospital and empty them, of course it wouldn't be as profitable to the pocketbook. Some of the movements of the people in the video were almost vulgar.

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

The only glory I see is to the flesh and to Benny.

Not much different than doing "the wave" at a football stadium. Crowd hysteria.

...and Twisp, I am not too worried about a she bear coming after me, not anymore than Paul was when he spoke out about Jannes and Jambre.

No need for parody. Ever see his show? :heeheehee

Do you really think God punishes people for making fun of ministers?

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

I used to watch his show, once in a while, just for amusement. When I saw a little girl lifted to her feet from a wheel chair, very wobbly but she had a big smile (wouldn't you, if you were just healed from a debilitating condition?), it wasn't very funny. Just when it was obvious she was about to collapse to the floor, BH gave her one of those slaps to the forehead and down she went.

Sick.

Thank God the somewhere amidst the nuts and the flakes some granola is there...

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

Taken literally, II Kings says explicitly that God will.

Taken figuratively, it sends the same message.

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

So, if one makes fun of a minister, God might figuratively punish him? :hmmm

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

No, that is not what I said. I gave the example not knowing if the intended audience read the Bible as a literal work from God or as a human work in response to God. Therefore I covered both bases by stating the literal reading and the figurative reading.

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

You said it sends the "same message", whether taken literally of figuratively. So, did you mean the real-world result would also be a (real) punishment, even if the story was takend figuratively?

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

It does send the same message. The message being, in that situation, God enacted a very real punishment on persons making fun of the man of God.

If you believe that the Bible is not literal, and that the particular story in question is merely a cautionary tale, then it would still be sending the same message: God does not take lightly men of God being made fun of.

You would need to take into account that the author of the story does believe that the Lord will send a real punishment to you, be it she-bears or ninjas or a comet, and he based his myth on real circumstances or actual, lessor, events.

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

OK.

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

BTW, you should check out this thread in Deep Waters: http://www.apostolicfriendsforum.com...ead.php?t=1628

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

Will do.

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

The relevance of that thread: surely, if God punishes people for things like making fun of preachers, surely He wouldn't mind if, say, a preacher prays and asks Him to do so (asks Him to take vengeance)? Goes along with 1 John 5:14-15. He'll do anything you ask, if He wants to do it ("according to his will").

Re: Benny Hinn immortalized in parody.
 

I gathered that it was what you were alluding to in regards to the two threads.

I do believe that God can and will punish people that make fun of Him or His messengers, at His discretion. Be it on earth or in heaven, He has the ability to and may very well do it.

In regards to 1 John 5:14-15, I don't believe it is in God's will for us to ask vengeance on anyone. Romans clearly says "never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God", and then goes on to state that we should feed and water our enemy, while overcoming good with evil.

I do not prescribe to the idea of us praying for Him to. We can never know all of the variables in the situation. It is best left up to God and absent from our thoughts. I don't care what they did in the Hebrew Bible, I feel that Jesus brought a very different message to us in regards to that, and that is what I choose to follow.

That still does not, in my opinion, take away from the intended message in II Kings. Whether one thinks that God put that scripture in the Hebrew Bible, or whether one thinks that it was just the author's idea about God and included it, I believe the message is clear and is relate-able to all eras.

Nothing will ever top this famous message by his Wife.
