Last week, I reported that well-known prosperity gospel charlatan, Benny Hinn, had once again "repented" of his false gospel—a publicity stunt he's performed time and time again. And I also pointed out that his latest charade was just another example of a dog...
Over the years, as I've covered Christian news and apologetics, I've seen a lot. I've seen so much that hardly anything surprises me. What was once considered unholy alliances have become the norm as mainstream seemingly "normal" Christian leaders don't think twice...
