QUITE right! One of the biggest FALSE doctrines is that practiced by many on 
his list, and that is to "buy" God's favor....."buy" your way out of dept., 
etc., by giving large amounts. There's probably more written about Hinn than  
the rest, but then, he's made himself a big target by being in error so much 
of the time.
