Crusade just uses the gullible

Sir,
On February 24, 2007, you ran an article titled Winning the Lost at any cost. Your title is quite accurate, for the costs of Benny Hinn’s crusade are not taken care by Hinn’s people but paid by the gullible, who flock to him.

Benny Hinn has never been able to medically prove that real miracles happened in his crusades.

If you attend the crusade, note how many offerings they take, you might also want to keep a close look at the wheelchairs section, they are normally placed in a remote area, far from the cameras.

Some of the wheelchairs bear numbers, these are rentals, and given to those who arrived at the crusade standing on their feet, but who will later come on stage and testify that God has risen them from their wheelchair, a chair they did not need.

I strongly believe that your countrymen need to know the real truth about Benny Hinn and his false miracles.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
