ZakDar,
Brother, first please know that I have no desire to start an argument of any kind.
I understand your thoughts, but I would have to add some other equally Biblical thoughts about false prophets and false teachers. I would be like you in wanting evidence or proof regarding people like Benny Hinn. We've had several discussions here about Benny Hinn, and folks have various opinions about him. There was so much talk about him that I did go looking for evidence and facts to form my own opinion. I was shocked and did form my own conclusion that he is a false prophet and false teacher. PLEASE, I don't say this to hurt anyone's feelings or start a debate. I simply considered what I found to be overwhelming evidence.
I just did a Google search on this specific topic, and I encourage you to look for yourself. I did what's called an advanced search that used two words with an AND - Maitreya Hinn.
There were 713 links on this specific topic alone, including transcripts, audio, video, and just about any kind of evidence you might want. I didn't take the time to download the audio and video proof, but I did look at enough to form an opinion that the information here is correct. If anything, the information here appears to be understated.
Here's a few links, and at least one of them offers hard evidence.

http://www.religionnewsblog.com/category-cat=173.htmlBrother, again, please don't think that I'm trying to be rude or start anything. I spent considerable time once before when I desired to know the real truth about Benny Hinn for myself. You will also find some real problems with his most basic beliefs and teaching. I'll let you look for yourself and let you make up your own mind. Benny Hinn might be the most heavily documented preacher in existence. I did want to look for myself, and I found out why.
Love In Christ,
Tom
2 Timothy 4:1-2 ASV I charge thee in the sight of God, and of Christ Jesus, who shall judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be urgent in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.
