As a Nigerian, I can confidently state that Benny Hinn, Kenneth Hagin, and Kenneth Copland hold unmatched sway in Christian communities throughout Nigeria. Benny Hinn's teachings and writings have profoundly influenced the theology of many churches here, spanning Catholic, Anglican, and Baptist denominations. Currently, there is a dedicated initiative to raise awareness about the doctrinal issues linked to Benny Hinn, Kenneth Hagin, and Kenneth Copland in Nigeria. I am grateful to Mike Winger and Costi Hinn for bringing this matter to light. I hope that your efforts will bring enough Nigerians and Africans to recognize and turn away from these false theology and doctrine.

Hi. I'm a Nigerian too. May I know about this effort so I may study it for talking points on the questionable doctrines? I'm really trying my best to be careful but I can't convince anyone without having solid points. Who knows? Maybe I'll be part of the team soon.

My sister had gotten HEALED at a Benny Hinn crusade in Cleveland, OH., by the power of God. I believe it was in the 90's. She never went on stage. It was at the end of service and Benny Hinn asked everyone to lift their hands for the closing prayer, and as she did so, her stomach which had been hurting her all through the service, stopped hurting her!!! As she raised her hands to the LORD in obedience, the HOLY SPIRIT met her at the apex of her need and HEALED her stomach!! She has never had that same pain again!!!

Benny Hinn destroyed my life for many years. I went to a crusade as a college student and went down when Benny called young people to the altar. He waved his jacket and everyone around me fell but I stayed standing. I stumbled a bit bc people fell on me but I felt a loneliness that I've never had since. Benny Hinn looked at me and said, "Take it, take it". I was scared so I just raised my hands like I was being ministered to. I eventually made my way back to my seat and felt like a failure. I felt like God touched everyone but me and I did something wrong. The worst part was I went home to a church that idolized Benny Hinn and mirrored his ministry. Every week, our prayer nights on Thursday had Benny Hinn's CD playing in the background to the point where if someone played it today, I'd be seriously triggered. I read all of Benny Hinn's books and was praised by my pastors for doing so but it shaped my faith journey into 25 yrs of false teaching full of lies, extreme guilt, and shame. In the past 2yrs, I've stumbled upon Mike Winger and Melissa Dougherty and I'm reading a book by Costi Hinn about the Holy Spirit. My eyes are being opened WIDE and as liberating as it has been, I'm finding myself extremely depressed feeling like I've wasted half my life believing lies and following a cult instead of actually following Christ. I honestly feel exhausted trying to reconstruct my faith and I find myself saying, "What IS the truth?"

I went to a Benny hinn crusade when I was 19 for the first time. I didn’t know if the “touch” falling was real or not. As God is my witness I will speak 100% truth with what I share. So I went, now by nature I am skeptical and don’t believe everything I see or hear. I had watched many of his KZbin clips and was convinced he shouts touch when people’s eyes are closed and they fall because they are caught off guard or kinda like a quick shock of surprise. However when I went to the Hershey Pa crusade he said if you want to experience the Holy Spirit close your eyes and lift your hands. I waited and was expecting the shout TOUCH. Instead he said softly “Touch” and I feel out along with my friend who came with me & I started laughing saying it’s real it’s real. Another time I went to see him in Baltimore. It was a fire conference and I was amazed at his message because it was on Lev 14 and was filled with revelation on Jesus and the blood. So he at the end starts to lay hands on each person individually. He slaps my forehead I fall they pick me up and as I am walking I thinking, man nothing happened. As God is my witness right when I get to the corner to make a left Benny Says “God just told me he is now sending the fire” I thought I don’t feel anything. 45 seconds later I was shocked as I started feeling a supernatural heat come all over my body. I went back to my seat stunned. I was thinking how did he know and it really happened. It was after that crusade however that I had dreams of his crowds getting smaller and smaller and I remember telling my friend “His ministry is going down” he asked why. I said his biggest mistake was getting involved with the prosperity gospel. It was not for him and wasn’t necessary. Once he brought in “prophets” everything changed. Aside from that however I am a Pastor and I want you to hear this well. A woman who went to my church in her 60’s had some health issues that I knew about. When Benny came to fort Washington Maryland some years ago he came off the stage and walked up to her and said each issue in her body, I was stunned because in all the years I saw him I never saw him leave the stage to do that let alone call out the issue of someone I knew to be facts. She got healed that day. Her name is Janet Valentine. You all may hate and dislike him but God did truly use him and there were real miracles that happened in his ministry. Doesn’t mean everything he did was right. Lastly I saw a woman who was blind in Hershey Pa get healed and me and others from my church watched as her eyes went from milky to color. There are experiences that cannot be erased. They are seared in my memory, so yes he made many mistakes but God has also used him and That’s my 2 cents. Blessings

Like everyone at one point in time in our lives, Benny Hinn needs to repent and come clean before the Lord and before His people. I know he "apologised" a few weeks ago, but even in the midst of the apology, he was saying he would still make mistakes again....meaning we should be ready to forgive him. How is that an apology? How is that a repentance? It's not the beginning of this race that matters, it's how it ends. Ezekiel 18:21-24 (NLT): But if wicked people turn away from all their sins and begin to obey my decrees and do what is just and right, they will surely live and not die. 22 All their past sins will be forgotten, and they will live because of the righteous things they have done. 23 “Do you think that I like to see wicked people die? says the Sovereign Lord. Of course not! I want them to turn from their wicked ways and live. 24 However, if righteous people turn from their righteous behavior and start doing sinful things and act like other sinners, should they be allowed to live? No, of course not! All their righteous acts will be forgotten, and they will die for their sins.

Thank you, Costi Hinn, for speaking the TRUTH in all this. Among all the people around Benny Hinn, you are probably the one who *loves* him the most, because you won't let him continue in his delusions. What you are doing is LOVING, both towards your Uncle, and towards the people he has hurt and used through his "ministry".

[@helenhilton2158]

It’s amazing how well Costi is able to mimic his uncle with voice inflections, vocabulary, hand gestures and even facial expressions. This reveals how easily one can learn to do the same. It’s not just a matter of family likeness, but rather TIME spent observing and hearing Benny Hinn’s speech and mannerisms. Also, it shows that it doesn’t take the anointing to look and sound like Benny Hinn. With a bit of practice, one who is skilled at impersonations can easily do the same thing.

Everything you are hearing now is true as I have experienced it years ago. My mom was sickly and when Kathryn Kulman would come to LA, she would drive us three young children to hear her speak - with hopes of her healing. She never was healed in these meetings. She also took us to see Benny Hinn years later with the same result. My mom stopped taking us as her youngest was frightened by Kathryn, and Benny’s antics. God chose to heal her years later at home alone. Thank you for this broadcast🙏🙏

[@rinabacot3327]

I was @ a Kathryn Kulman healing service years ago when I was 15 years of age. I was healed completely of my red blood cells were eating my white blood cells. I had trouble breathing, all that went away. I could breathe normal again , went to Doctor & my red & white blood cells were back to normal. It was incredible, Thsnk God for my healing! & a nun next to me in the crowd was deaf & was healed! If people are not healed it could be mostly becuz of their unbelief & un forgiveness and/or a spirit that is hindering the healing! Mark 9:23-25 New King James Version 23 Jesus said to him, “If[a] you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” 24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!” 25 When Jesus saw that the people came running together, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “Deaf and dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter him no more!” God is a our healer! Believe & quote the scriptures & bring the Holy Spirit into remembrance of Gods Word to execute His Word what it’s set out to do & accomplish, Gods Word will not return void ! Isaiah 55:6-11, Isaiah 59:2 Verse Concepts But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God, And your sins have hidden His face from you so that He does not hear. Mark 11:25 And whenever you stand praying, forgive, if you have anything against anyone, so that your Father also who is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses Luke 6:37 “Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven!❤

My mother watched him all the time (idolizing him as well) and always said how annointed he was but never getting truly healed from her things.

Mike, I discovered your channel years ago when I was in my mid-20s and going through a massive faith crisis. You (among other Christian channels) really helped me sort out and understand a lot of things I was confused on. I had been raised on a strange mix of false teachings, but also true teachings and I had no idea how to separate what was real from what wasn't. Thank you so much for all you do. Costi, I don't really know much about you, but the way you talk about your uncle with both truth and compassion brings me comfort in a situation I have with a relative of mine. Different situation of course, as my relative is not a pastor, but he is saying and doing ungodly things in the name of Christ and refuses to look at how he has been hurting people for years. May God bless and protect all of you.

[@Marlaina]

In my case it was my mother who raised me and my siblings in a superstitious false belief system that I can't call Christianity even if it included God and Jesus and misunderstood Scripture. It wasn't until my mid 20s when following TBN televangelists that God opened my eyes to start learning the truth and I watched discernment videos that exposed these TBN false teachers. Then I learned what real Christianity is. My mother is gone now and there was family that refused to attend her funeral because she was so unloving and cruel to them in life.

I have tears in my eyes listening to this... I was part of an Evangelical, die-to-self, be in submission, holiness cult for 13 years in my young adulthood... this discussion has opened my eyes up to a whole new aspect of that cult I was unaware of... there are hundreds of us living with C-PTSD because of this cult's abuse and cruelty justified with God's Words and supported by the doctrines they focused on. When I woke up and realized that I had given the best years of my life in service as a missionary, not to God, but to my "Spiritual Head" my heart was absolutely crushed. I lost so much in service and those things can never be restored and I am reconciled to the fact that I will have C-PTSD for the rest of my life. My grief is profound... but the counter balance is that I did find my way out of that cult... and I have found my own soul. My gratitude to God is deep and profound... many have not found their way out and are absolutely shattered now.

To say they are also being fooled by Benny is saying leading Pastors are stupid too. The truth is Benny's carries a heavy presence of God and when you go to His meetings it lifts your faith God for a miracle. Many testimonies of people being healed in a Benny Hinn meeting youtube it. But not only miracles people want to serve God more after experiencing God's presence in Benny Hinns meeting. The pitiful of becoming famous and in demand is you have to keep up with demand and if you dont you feel like you're letting everybody down. Some people cope with having large ministries better than others. Benny has made a mess of things on occasions having the wrong people working for him etc. But his not a fraud. He has never fabricated anything in his meetings. Costi is a kid that grew up in church. I would not take his judgement on any spiritual things.

And to be clear, I've watched a few videos by Mike Winger about this and other topics, and He does address that there may be those who Have been healed and blessed by Bennie's ministry. What do you make of the claims in this video though? I'm of the view that there's no harm in watching something we disagree with, because character outlasts criticism. I've opened myself up to watch video's about MIke WInger that are opposed to his views to see what folk are saying about Him. Maybe you have watched the video in it's entirety already? But if you haven't I encourage you to do so, and if Mike is wrong, you can point out the particulars. I pray, neither of us are interested in point scoring or 'winning an argument' but rather are given discernment to know and discover what is true. Those who trust the Lord are one body in Christ, and we need each other, and with that in mind, (If you haven't already, watch the video in it's entirety) open yourself up to the arguments that are laid out here, consider them on their own merit with your investigating, and come to your conclusions, and refute them with your evidence or agree.

Benny Hinn is one of God servant's, I got healed from a large tumor just by watching his program on TV. He is not perfect just like all of us but he truly one of God servants😊

[@liannemarie2504]

You did not get healed by watching a TV show. You got healed by god. It had nothing to do with the false prophet spouting nonsense. Be careful of what you speak because God is listening

[@tamraboyd1624]

No he isn't. He did not heal you. It was your faith that healed you.

[@chrissie-bn4cv]

@janeted1 God honoured YOUR Faith and NOT Benny Hins. I called him, all the prosperity teachers and Katherine Kulman out 35 yrs ago. Listen to these guys, they are trying to help you into heaven. The Holy Spirit does not honour men like this. BUT, He has shown you what He does when you walk in Faith. Jesus is the Author and Finisher of our Faith. It's only in His Grace through Faith (true faith) that we are Healed. 🙏☝️🙌❤️

@@janeted1 amen amen in December 1993 I got radically saved. I was watching soap operas and the Holy Spirit had me turned to Christian television almost 31 years and I have not been the same that was back then with Paul and Jan Crouch and the Holy Spirit got a hold of me, like a Paul Saul experience and the Holy Spirit radically changed me we got orders to go to Orlando, Florida because guy got a hold of me just like he does with people that totally surrender their heart and I was blessed to be in PASTOR BENNY‘s church now I have known this man for at least 28 years, all I can say from the bottom of my heart, I would not want to be in nobody’s shoes God do not touch my anointed because I know him life has been nothing but a blessing and God used me and the precious book that he had good morning Holy Spirit and now God is really using this man just pure unadulterated word of God to love. God, deceit God to finish well, there are some men and women in the body of Christ. I do not totally understand or agree with but I am ever ever so very careful what I say about them you know what’s important is me stand before God one day each one that has said something and these comments are going to stand before God I love to say when I riding on the freeway or the highway, I stay in my lane and I mind my business let me tell you something. He’s been my pastor for around 28 years. I am so tremendously blessed every area of my life. Been with my husband almost 39 years. God is used me as a minister and me very very humble. I have been given my off since I’ve been saved and God is so blessed financially I am a giver. I love giving you what I gave today, but it says don’t let left right hand so it breaks my heart to the core to see these people. Just wondering do they not have anything in their life are they live in a sinless life? Are they perfect that one throw the first stone, but they again is let me say something else if you’re not being attacked if people aren’t coming against you then you wonder what side you are on I always say if there’s some sexual misconduct or things going on of that nature that is trying to be here and covered up definitely exposed definitely and that happens in the body of Christ all the time but I know this means heart is my spiritual father. I’ve had a blessed life. My walk with God is so intimate so personal so precious. He’s my everything and I love him with all of my heart and I have so much fruit in my life. I have ministered and touch mini lives through God using me and I want to continue to do that and he is precious , it just breaks my heart to see many women being attacked As I said already, there’s a lot that I definitely don’t agree with with certain ones and they’re not my favorites and I don’t even follow them or listen to them but what they have between them and God I don’t want to touch it. I pray for them cause I’m gonna stand before God and everyone’s been saying a lot against this man is gonna stand before God one day , I would say out your salvation with fear and trembling. We haven’t finished yet it’s not how you start. It’s how you FINISH God bless everyone.🩷🕊️💕💕💕🕊️💕

Yes it was her Faith, but God use Pastor Benny for her Faith now to connect with the supernatural. If we say it is her Faith only then she should be healed before she came to Pastor Benny's crusade.​@@tamraboyd1624

[@patriciabenherschel7182]

When Benny Hin has a big service the presence of God is there. That’s what I love about his meetings. I’ve been to many Christian meetings and the presence of God is at Benny Hinn meetings. The Holy Spirit is there at Benny Hinn meetings. I’ve experienced the tangible beautiful presence of The Holy Spirit at Benny Hinn meetings. If The Holy Spirit goes to his meetings than I will go. If you all have something against him you are called to pray for him. Benny Hinn loves God. I don’t know what’s happening with Benny Hinn right now but I have had beautiful times with The Lord years ago at Benny Hinn meetings. I plead the blood of Jesus on Benny Hinn.

Correct. Ppl like Mike and Costi are a dime a dozen. Great brothers just could care less about their research on Benny Hinn. Growing your channel with Pastor Bennys name every day. It's not God's increase. It's your pride that wreaks from your pours.
