On the lookout

Received an email this morning. A church elder sent an email to his church, calling all to go and support Benny Hinn. As he's in Singapore this coming weekend?


Anyway, i have heard about this guy before. Mostly negative. Do i want to tell you the negative stuff? There's a video that i found, very disturbing. Decided not to put here.

Anyway, I am also reminded that we must be careful not to judge too soon. If this guy is really working by the Holy Spirit, then we say bad things about it... must be careful. (Mark 3:29..hm...)
At the end of the day, this whole issue is not exactly about Mr Hinn. It's more about how do we stand. Yes, how do we stand.

How firm are our Biblical values? How sure are we of our Biblical knowledge? How much has it affected our lives, and the lives of our friends and loved ones? We can't just go around telling people that this person is false and that person is false, while we don't know the reason. But what do we do in the meantime? Do we just accept everything? Reject everything? Points to ponder i suppose.

I'm leaving this topic open. Eyes getting a bit droopy now. Should sleep.
P.S. I viewed my blog after i published this. The more i look at the video, the more i find it disturbing. (Most probably due to the music...bad music. Bad.) I'll probably be taking this post down (at least the video...) anytime soon.

ya, agree with oo (hee) that this new background/layout is nice.

just came back from 11/2 day "silent retreat". quite interesting. you should try it sometime. the place is owned by the catholic near bukit batok. not too pricy.

as for benny hinn, i also have mixed reviews. personally won't go since i don't think it builds my faith. just create more skeptic feelings in me.
