Benny Hinn has
said that he loves Trinidad and Tobago so that he was not paid to host two “miracle
crusades” this past weekend.
“I did not
take not even half a cent, I am doing this freely, because I love Trinidad.” He said at the Hasely Crawford Stadium in
Port-of-Spain on Saturday night during the crusade.
Hinn made it clear
though, that the contributions would not go to the US “but will stay
here for God to take care of you.”
Believers flocked to
the front of the large stage on the northern side of the stadium to make their
contributions, while others who opted to remain seated in the stands were given
envelopes to place their offerings.
Towards the end of
the four-hour event, the televangelist invited the sick, downtrodden, and
broken-hearted to come to the front of the stage where he offered a special
healing interlude.
Several believers
gave personal testimonies of how they were healed through the sheer power of
the Holy Spirit during the crusade. About ten doctors were also on hand to
corroborate their stories of healing.
One woman claimed
she had suffered from a pinched nerve for some time, but was able to “move,
jump, and twist”, during the event.
During the crusade,
Hinn made no reference to his somewhat controversial past in this country. In
previous visits, Hinn had described former Prime Minister Patrick
Manning and his spiritual adviser Juliana Penaas “foolish”.
He was also criticised by the Sanatan Dharma Maha Sabha and
other groups for saying that he had cast out many demons in this country.
On Sunday, Hinn
stopped photographers from taking photos, saying they had taken enough for the
day.
