Benny Hinn Regrets Allowing False Prophets Attend His Crusades: "I Wasn't Wise Enough"
- Benny Hinn regrets allowing false prophets to attend his crusades, which harmed people's lives and his reputation
- The renowned preacher admitted to giving prophecies he thought were from God but later realised were not accurate.
- The televangelist asked for forgiveness, emphasising that he is only human and prone to mistakes
Israel-American televangelist has reflected on his regrets concerning his spiritual leadership.
In an interview with The Strang Report, the clergy, who was hosted by Chris Oyakhilome expressed remorse for permitting individuals who made unfounded prophetic claims to participate in his gatherings.
"We all make mistakes. The two things I regret most in ministry are that I was not too wise a number of times with prophecy. I had guests come to crusades who I think brought harm to not only people's lives but also my reputation because their prophecies were not really prophecies.
They went outside the boundaries of redemption. Anything that's outside of redemption is not prophecy. We should not allow that. I allowed it, and then I stopped. But that was years ago when I stopped," he said.
