dUSt Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I was watching TV last night and saw Benny Hinn doing one of his televangelist shows at the Vatican. He was talking about how deeply he was moved by the funeral service and how suprised he was on how Christ-centered it was. He had some other evangelists talk about how holy the Catholic church is and how they were touched by how powerfully the Holy Spirit was working inside the church, etc, etc. They went on and on about how great the Catholic church is and how it glorifies Christ. etc, etc. I was freaking out. Then, at the end, they all prayed that the church would convert to evangelism. hahaha... I knew there was a catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusader1234 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 You know, Benny Hinn always strikes me as being a bit 'slow'. Maybe he only just found out how much money the Vatican is worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krush2k2 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Why did the Vatican allow Benny Hinn to do a show there in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Just Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Is it me or did that last action contradict all the latter? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Eremite Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I was watching this as well last night. The night before, he had a couple of priests on his talk show. Too much mealy mouthed doctrinal obfuscation for my tastes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] He wasn't "in" the Vatican. It was in the background. It looked like he might have been in St Peter's square, or just on the outside of it.

jezic Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Benny Hinn strikes me as odd. I have never figured out his shows ...... It seems like they are so into it that instead of letting God the whole placebo effect goes on and then poof! something happens more because they want it to and believe it will than anything else. Personally if they show Benny Hinn why don't they show the true power of prayer from small group things or youth retreats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gal. 5:22,23 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Benny Hinn's not the only evangelical complimenting the Catholic Church. Jack Van Impe regularly quotes the Catechism on his show. Also, TBN allows a priest named Father Manning to have his show broadcast on their network. The Lord works in mysterious ways... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seven77 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 wow.. i wouldnt be surprised if they all converted to the evangelism of the Catholic Church... hey they actually prayed for the Church to be strengthened! what an ironic prayer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
