Benny Hinn - Politics with China

1. In the year 2000, Benny Hinn visited China.

2. Was a 'mighty move of God' happening? Had the Communist Chinese government suddenly opened up to the gospel? Why would Benny Hinn's Ministry be specifically singled out to carry the gospel message into China?

3. It is possible that God really is moving in China and used Benny Hinn Ministries to do so, BUT, with Benny's track record with false prophecies and heretical doctrines, it is unlikely - at best. Consider these other facts as well:

a. The Communist Chinese government is absolutely and unrepentantly atheistic;

b. The Communist Chinese government invited Benny Hinn to China for political purposes (see below) knowing full well that Benny Hinn's teachings are not a threat to them. In fact, his teachings are a detriment to the true church. (our opinion)

c. A glimpse of a product, a name brand, or even a necktie has enormous advertising potential, sends specific messages, and is well-known as powerful communication to someone of Benny's experience. What message was Benny intending to 'send' in his TV image by wearing a black suit with the white square on his collar, like a priest's collar, when on his Dec 8, 2000 program, he shared highlights of his trip to China? (He has since frequently worn this style of collar).

d. The push for interfaithism, especially since the Millennium Peace summit in August 2000, the Pope's broadening of the plan of salvation, Hans Kung's teachings on the Global Ethic for the New World Order, Jack Van Impe's incessant endorsement of the Pope, and Benny's 'engagement' with Catholicism are just a few of the signs that signal the uprising United Religions.

e. By his own reports, Benny's reception in China (an "unusual and historic trip") was one "reserved for visiting diplomats or politicians."

f. Benny met with several cabinet level government ministers, religious leaders and dignitaries. The details were available online under the Dec 8, 2000 program at: http://www.bennyhinn.org/tvschedule.asp But he met with Bishop Michael Fu Tieshan, head of Catholic church (Bishop) of the Beijing Diocese. (ecumenicism? interfaithism? united religions? politics?)

g. He met with Xie Qimel, former Undersecretary General of the United Nations, who hosted a formal dinner for Benny! (Note the UR-UN connection - former Undersecretary General of the United Nations.)

h. He had another formal dinner for himself, hosted by Mr. Li Changshun, Vice President of the Committee of China Association for International Friendly Contact. (hmmmmm...)

i. He hand-delivered a letter, written by Paul Crouch (president of TBN), a copy of which had been sent to Dick Gephart and all members of the U.S. Congress, expressing his support for China's entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO).

j. Have you followed the China/Taiwan issue recently? How about the U.S. Senate's normalization of trade with China? This is the biggest issue between China and the U.S.A., it is central to the China/Taiwan situation, and it is consequently central to the issue of China bombing the U.S.A. (and Canada under NORAD) in the wake of 'interference' in the One China Policy.

k. What "business" do Benny Hinn and Paul Crouch have in discussing/supporting China's current primary global objective, entry in the WTO (formerly GATT), in their VISIT to China? Until recently, WTO entry has been inseparably connected to the issue of human rights violations. China wants to change its image in the world's eyes; not change its policies. CHINA WANTS TO CHANGE ITS IMAGE IN THE WORLD'S EYES; NOT ITS POLICIES.

l. Benny met with Mr. Ye Xiao Wen, Director General of the State Administration for Religious Affairs of the Peoples Republic of China (who must approve all religious broadcasts and Benny Hinn - and TBN - want to broadcast in China). Mr. Ye Xiao Wen said, "we would like to have EXCHANGE program with TBN. We would like to offer our help to TBN efforts TO INTRODUCE CHINA TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND TO PEOPLE OF THE WORLD, IN THE WORLD" (emphasis added).

m. Our opinion? - Benny Hinn is playing politics with the Chinese leadership. The Chinese leaders are playing politics with Benny Hinn and TBN, and both are playing religion (United Religions) with us.

n. DON'T BE DECEIVED.

(Since Benny's trip in 2000, China has joined the WTO, without hardly a word from western sources. Perhaps its inaugural date of Nov 11, 2001 had something to do with it? - two months to the day of the terror attacks striking the U.S., and the very day of Remembrance Day. In late 2006, President George Bush, Jr, met with Russian President, Vladimir Putin to discuss Russian's imminent entry as well.)
