Tufick "Benny" Hinn...The Gospel, Miracles & Prosperity Is "Not For Sale"

It what is a startling turn of events, it seems that long time televangelist, Tufick Hinn, better known as "Benny Hinn" has had a turnabout of his own encouragements of wealth enhancement or prosperity preaching and teaching. In a segment blazing on the internet Tufick declares his own personal disdain with doctrines and teaching that imply that monetary gifts can buy or purchase god's favor.

"The Gospel is not for sale. Miracles are not for sale. Prosperity is not for sale"

Already, Benny's commentary is garnering all kinds of critique, from those who declare his insincerity. From televangelists rising to "rebuke" Benny because they are afraid that their shoddy house of "prosperity manipulation" will be effected, to people just suspicious of Benny's motives, thoughts are all across the board.

Hear Tufick for yourself in this video:

Of course, one would know that the televangelism and media elite, who nearly solely make their livings off of "fleecing" the TV faithful, have plenty to say about Tufick's "repentance" and turning from the prosperity trap of the "give to get" scheme...

Hear Bishop George Bloomer's response. Remember, this is the same George Bloomer that recovered the "blood money" of his former illegal drug trade to begin his church. (That is according to his own testimony, not mine)



A Dunamis Word On The Issue

One thing is for sure, the words of Tufick Hinn and anything else he says regarding his former misguided teachings (and the teachings are misguided, no matter how much Bloomer or anyone else trues to string scriptures together to support his practice) are bound to set the televangelist and money abuse church crowd on their ears.

The problem is simple. There is NO SCRIPTURE that teaches either explicitly or implicitly, that any person should have to PAY for a miracle or a blessing.

Please understand this, a person may act in faith. One may "consecrate" an amount of money or anything else, as a petition for the blessing of the Lord. Some do this through "fasting and prayer", to specifically seek the Lord for purpose or clarity on an issue or multiple issues. We must admit that money cannot be excluded from that purpose as well, however, to manipulate the circumstance, by asserting that an amount of money, manipulates or constrains God to "do something" is and has always been no more than slight of hand.

Now, Bishop Bloomer, asserts that people have been healed as a result of committing a certain amount of money in certain circumstances. However, can we consider that the money had nothing to do with the healing, and that faith, trust and belief in God did? Some say, in that case, use money as a "point of contact" as Oral Roberts and Sr. Kenneth Hagan so abundantly taught in the hay day of their heresy...But what if money, or anything material, had nothing to do with it? What if it were simply God doing what he does in response to prayer and petition?

Recreation Of Idols

"Just as the nation of ancient Israel, this generation has followed idols and quickly makes idols out of nearly any and everything within its reach."

Some of the same one's claiming to Love God and claiming to have a ministry (at least on TV) to call all men to repentance, are breathing condemnation on Tifick for turning from his false doctrine and teaching of associating monetary and material wealth and wealth transfer with the blessings of God. One would think that these would be happy when anyone repents from their sin, and especially sins such as this which has damaged so many and promoted some of the worst and most spurious teachings in the name of "God" on earth. I would ask is there no room for Tufick to change? Can God not deliver him from sin and false doctrine?

I no more hold my breath for him than I do for anyone that says they want change and are willing to repent.

Hopefully,  ALL of the rest of the televangelists and "entertainment" preachers will follow suit. Instead of trying to string together a theology, to keep themselves on the air, to attain popularity and make people believe that they are special, I pray that they too will repent from "fleecing the flock" and causing shame within the body of Christ.

From Gulf Stream airplanes, to Bentleys; from fashioned, tailored suits, red bottom shoes and all kinds of excess...I ti my prayer that those that hold any of those things as signs of the "arrival" of ministry and God's favor, would have a shaking in their souls and open themselves up to experience the true nature and power of God that is present upon men and women in the deepest impoverishment and in the deepest chasm of the soul and spirit.

The anointing is not birthed in luxury. It is always birthed in difficulty and adversity. i would hope that all of these multi-millionaire so called "preachers" and "teachers" would remember the words of Jesus regarding HIS house...

Mt. 21:13 ~ And said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves. (from Is. 56:7)

What Do George Bloomer, Bethel Family Worship Ctr. & Drug Money Have in Common?

You have heard of the expression, "the truth is stranger than fiction"? Well it cetainly is that.  In an unbelievable confession on his Rejoice In The Word program, Friday 12/30/2011, the bishop George Bloomer stated that he purchased his church with $600,000 of DRUG money that he had earned during his drug sales days.

He stated that when he was selling drugs, there were many safe houses that he would use where he would have young ladies hold his ill-begotten drug sales earnings so that when and if he got caught he wouldn't loose his money. This is common in street corner drug sales and the reason that some folk hang out at some folk houses that don't really belong there...but that's another story...In this case, Bloomer explained how he had gone to jail, gotten out, and supposedly during the process, got "saved". We don't know if this was the "use cocaine while preaching saved" or the "cocaine free" version of saved, because according to Bloomer, they are very similar to the same thing. Also according to him a person can be "anointed" in both instances simultaneously. (which is yet another story as well)

Nonetheless, Bloomer recounted that when he got out of jail, he needed some money and this particular lady was in jail and he couldn't get to his money. He said that during this time, he needed money to complete the financial arrangements for his new church and was praying to God that God would intervene and provide the necessary resources for the church. The woman got out of prison and eventually delivered the drug money back to him. He stated that he took it, approximately $600,000, and used it to secure the mortgage on his church. He went on to expound how that event was a "blessing" for both he and his ministry and the unsuspecting audience applauded.

What's Wrong With This Picture?

Even though this was met with applause, there are many things wrong with what this bishop stated. I'll outline a few of them and ask that you chime in on the issue if you'd like.

First, this was not a blessing from God. Let's get one scriptural myth out of the way right now...the wealth of the sinner being laid up for the righteous (Prov. 13:22) has nothing to do with this or what happened here. First, the context of  that scripture does not allow it and secondly, this was supposedly the bishop's "wealth". So if he's the sinner, he can't also be the righteous for who this wealth is laid up for. Allow me to challenge you on this and we'll save that for later...let's deal with the greater issues for now:

Money Laundering & Tax Evasion

Bloomer in no uncertain terms stated that this money was gained by illegal enterprise and means. He, in his

Prophe~lying For Profits. Astrology & False Prophet E. Bernard "Mar Elijah" Jordan

Master Prophet
E. Bernard Mar Elijah  Jordan

"The prophets are Jupitarian. Jupiter is the expanse, but Jupiter also means what else? 'Money'. Thank you...and prosperity, believe the prophets so shall you prosper. God connects the prophets with the star that deals with the most money."..."Gemini(es) are the talkers of the Zodiak" ~ Master Profit E. Bernard Mar Elijah Jordan

The Word Network is airing a "Prophetic Summit" on the program 'Rejoice In The Word ' with Bishop George Bloomer. The center of attention seems to be "Master" Prophet and (I'll add "False Prophet") E. Bernard Mar Elijah Jordan.  (Read where the names come from HERE) There are so many problems and scriptural issues with certain assertions that have been delivered by the panelists, I almost don't know where to begin. There are some good and insightful guests of course, but you know it was a bad show when Pimpoliscious himself served as a co-moderator.

Ahhhhh.....In what I believe was segment 2 of this program Bishop Bloomer asked the panel to address the difference between a prognosticator and a biblical prophet, asking the question does one facilitate the other. For a point of reference, the word prognosticator is defined as follows:

Prognosticator:One who foretells the future from signs or symptoms. 

To be clear, a biblical and Christ centered prophecy HAS NOTHING TO DO with prognostication which includes the reading of horror-scopes (telling or diving times) or reading or defining information from current symbols contained within the natural universe as it pertains to issues of righteousness and holiness.

The 2008 Bloomer ~Barrino Prophecy

Here we go again:

Now, modern ministers are so eager to be on tape, video and everything else, it becomes easy to analyze their words and the outcome of what they say. Listen closely to a Feb. 2008 prophecy and word of healing that Bishop George Bloomer gave to Fantasia Barrino. At the time Fantasia had a tumor growing in her throat effecting her vocals. In April or early May 2008 she underwent surgery to have the tumor removed.  

Now we are compelled to ask a few things; did satan attack Fantasia, or did Fantasia attack herself? She certainly didn't deliver her giftings to the church even though that's where they seem to have come from. When did she get promoted? What work has she done for Christ or righteousness?

Maybe her promotion was in Aug. 2009, she met Antwaun Cook (a married man with 2 kids) at the T-mobile store, and began having an affair with him. Maybe it was when she moved him into her mansion (less than a month later and while he was still married)...Y'u-know it was the same mansion that Simon Cowel helped save from foreclosure. Or maybe it was before she got pregnant by the same married man, had an abortion and attempted to commit suicide...

People need to quit playing with God...he's NOT a play toy!

Paula Cook, Fantasia's illicit lover's spouse, who's children were ages 6 and 2 at the time, tried to save her marriage. CNN reported that a month after she separated from her husband expecting him to change his ways, during a husband/wife phone conversation, Fantasia got on the phone and stated the following:

"He don't want you. Maybe the next time you get a husband you'll know how to keep him. That's why he is here with me,"

Can't have the
Bruvas backslidin' on my site

Like the singing slut that she obviously has become, Fantasia is currently pregnant again and the baby is  due in either late December or Early January. The "assumption" is that Antwaun is the baby daddy...Fantasia says this about her unborn child and the situation all together:

"For a while I walked around figuring out what will they say and what will they think about me. But now I tell you I don't live my life for folk. THIS CHILD THAT I AM CARRYING...God has given me this child. And I don't have to hide it from NONE of y'all."

What about God Fantasia? Even Adam realized that he was naked, ashamed and hid himself before God. Is there no shame to expose your sins openly before God? How did God give you anything that you took from someone else while they were legally married? What does this tell all of the fans, especially the young ladies and children, that are so inspired by you, your gift and your testimony? (watch at 6:23 into the linked video as a young lady says "you're my idol") Fantasia said that she hated the devil, but if I could ask one more question I would ask is the lifestyle and the compromise that you have made, what you want for those babies too? We all need love, but God didn't tell us to settle for a sad and fake rendition of it.

Knowledge of self is essential and comes right along with knowledge of God. If you know God, you also know he didn't create yourself to be or do any of this!

Blessed!
