ìThe Lord just said to me these words - I'm hearing myself say
them for the first time - TBN will not be only a Christian
network. It will be an extension of heaven to the earth. An
extension - it will be like a tube from heaven that the earth
can look and say ëI'm looking at heaven, I'm partaking of
heaven. I'm getting connected to heaven through this TV
tube.í If I can say it, it will be heaven's signal to the earth.
It will be as though heaven is transmitting and earth is
receiving through that set. So if you want to go to heaven,
you want to see heaven, you want to taste heaven, turn
on that channel, 'cause you will.î 23 (emphasis mine)Claiming that by turning on a television someone can see heaven is nothing
short of blasphemy! Jesus told Nicodemus that for anyone to see the kingdom of
God (heaven) they must be born again.
ìÖVerily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he
cannot see the kingdom of God.î John 3:3
During this see heaven ìprophecyî Benny Hinn predicted that people would be
raised from the dead watching TBN, although I wonder how a dead person can
watch TV.
ìPeople will be raised from the dead watching TBN. People
will cancel funeral services and will place caskets in front of
a TV set.î 24Ever true to his motivations, he claims that financial blessings will be bestowed
upon those that donate to TBN and his own ministry.
ìPoverty comes from Hell. Prosperity comes from
HeavenÖSow a big seed, when you confess it, you are
activating the supernatural forces of God.î 25Using a new age version of positive confession, the Apostleís of Greed
encourage people to think and vocalize their prosperity.
ìIf you think it [prosperity] can happen, it surely can.î 26According to Pastor Benny Hinn, it is something within that activates
prosperity!
ìSay it!...You want to prosper! Money will be falling on you
from left, right and center. God will begin to prosper you, for
money always follows righteousness...Say after me,
ëeverything I ever want is in me already.íî 27 (emphasis mine)
