- Welcome back.

You're watching The 700 Club.

I'm so happy to have you with us.

God bless every one of you.

A sea of more than 14,000 people,

all of them worshiping en masse

in Tai Pei, Taiwan,

and many of them from China.

This was just one stop

on Benny Hinn's latest round

of spectacular miraclecrusades, take a look.

(whoosh)

(soft piano music)

- [Narrator] In overfour decades of ministry,

Benny Hinn has preached the gospel

to more than a billion people.

Millions tune into hisdaily television show,

This is Your Day, which isbroadcast to over 200 countries.

He's also known for his miracle crusades.

Around the world, people gather

to hear the life-changingmessage of the gospel,

and witness the healing power of God.

Recently, Pastor Bennyministered in Tai Pei, Taiwan,

Wembley London, and Budapest, Hungary.

Meeting with dignitaries and ministering

to hundreds of thousands,

hungry for the presence of God.

- Well it's a pleasure to welcome you back

to our dear friend Benny Hinn.

Benny, good to see you, man.

- So nice to see you.

- It's been too long.

- You look fabulous.

(claps hands)

- Well, I'm going on for an old guy.

(laughs)

Hanging in there, brother.

- You look great, Pat, you look great.

- Well so do you.

- Well thank you, thank you.

- Tell me about this Tai Peicrusade, it sounds fabulous.

- Well, first of all, I will tell you,

I was deeply moved bythe amounts of people

that came from China.

- [Pat] Mm-hmm.

- And, especially the pastors.

The stadium was packed,about 14,000 seats,

and, on the following morning,

I met with all the pastorswho came from China

about a thousand or so.

I never saw a thing likeit, Pat, in all my life.

I wish I could show itbut I can't, because

we have to be careful to protect them.

- [Pat] Yeah.

- But when I said pray,those pastors prayed

in a way I never heard pastors pray.

I mean, I couldn't even stop them.

- [Pat] Mm-hmm.

- And, I heard from many of them,

of what's happening inside China.

What was so moving, is, which again,

I wish I could show,

but a few months ago,

I ministered to over2,000 Catholic priests

inside China,

on WhatsApp.

Because, you know, theywere having a meeting,

it was an underground church meeting,

and the gentleman who was leading it

called and said, would you mind sending us

a clip, and I did a live clip with them.

And what I'm hearing ishappening inside China

is very moving, of course, it's sad to see

what the government is doing,

(sighs)

to believers.

But the strength, thestrength of these Christians

is what amazed me.

And the many of themthat came to the crusade

from Tai Pei, to Tai Pei,

to see the boldness they have,

the strength they showed,

was very encouraging.

And what I'm seeing,

dear people, around the world,is an amazing move today

of the Holy Spirit.

We saw it a few days ago in London,

with pastors that came from 177 countries.

I was with Pastor ChrisOyakhilome in London.

Pastor Chris and I are very dear friends,

we're working togethervery very closely now.

He's from Nigeria, you know,the Lord just ministers

today out in Lagos.

And he's one of them.

And Pastor Chris sponsoredthis meeting we just had.

And, again, to see the strength

of God's people and, especially, pastors

who are becoming verycommitted to the cause.

- You know Benny, China,

I've preached over there,I've seen such an incredible

hunger for God, I thoughtChina was gonna be probably

the largest Christian nationon the face of the earth.

What's happening to itthat Three-Self Movement,

are they restricting thefreedom of believers?

- Yes, they are.

They told me, the pastors told me

that the government isdestroying the churches.

Their buildings.

They bulldozed their buildings.

This is happening today inside China.

When I heard that fromthem, I didn't hear it

from some third party.

I was told by the pastors, who I met with,

only literally, four weeks ago.

- [Pat] Yeah.

- That they are destroying their buildings

inside China, they're trying to limit them

from even having a place to worship.

So a lot of them are now underground, yes.

But even those

who had their own church buildings

approved by the government,

those buildings are gone now.

- Unbelievable.

I preached at one that had a huge crowd,

and it was so enthusiastic,that building may have gone.

- Well, a lot of them are gone, Pat,

and we need to pray forthe Chinese church today,

probably more than we have in the past.

But, one more thing, Igotta talk to you about,

and that's what's happening

through the Hungarian government

to help prosecuted Christians.

- [Pat] Yeah.

- I was in Budapest, with Pastor Sandor,

what an amazing ministry they have there.

That's the largestministry today in Europe,

150,000 members, you're looking at that

beautiful building that they have.

And I met with the Deputy Prime Minister,

with Pastor Sandor and I,

and I brought up thematter about Christians

who are under persecution.

You know, Pat, I've become good friends

with David Curry, DavidCurry runs you know,

the great ministry calledOpen Doors in the U.S.

And he was telling me a few days back,

that to their knowledge,

these are accurate names they have.

Close to 10,000 people are getting killed,

Christians are getting killed every year

in this world.

That's a fact.

Close to 10,000 that they know about,

that they know about.

Now, there's a lot morethey don't know about.

Over 200 million

are under persecution worldwide.

So I brought that up

with the Deputy Prime Minister.

To my amazement, here is what he told me.

And Pastor Sandor andI discussed this prior,

on what we should talk about with him.

And we did.

He said the largest budget is to help

persecuted Christians around the world.

Mostly in the Muslim world it happens.

- [Pat] Yeah, yeah.

- So I said, well what areyou doing to help them?

He said, we're helpingthem rebuild their lives,

and go back to their homes.

I said, what if theyhave no homes to go to?

- [Pat] Yeah.

- I said, what if they, when they go home,

after ISIS is out, theirneighbors kill them?

Which is happening now.

I've heard that from people I know well,

who have ministries there.

So, he said, well, he said

you give me the names

of individuals

that have no home to go to,

and we will give them a visato come into this country.

I was amazed.

- Yeah, that's amazing.

- I was just amazed.

So, please pray, all of you,

please pray for believersin the Muslim world,

pray for believers, listen,the number one country

today where they're persecuting Christians

is North Korea.

That's the number one country.

- Oh, horrible, horrible.

- Yeah.

And then you go there,you go into Afghanistan,

and Iran, and on and on,

where our brothers andsisters are under persecution.

- Benny, let's pray for them right now.

Would you lead us?

Let's just pray for them.

- Let's do it, please.

- Go ahead.

- Father, we come.

In the mighty and gloriousname of Jesus, your son.

Lord, we pray strength in your people.

Protect your people.

Surround them with your angels.

- [Pat] Thank you Lord.

- Anoint them and usethem and increase them

around the world, andglorify your name, we pray.

- Let it be.

- In the glorious, mighty name of Jesus.

Can I pray for thepeople watching, quickly?

- Please, absolutely.

- Would you stretch your hands?

I believe in God with you

to release a fresh anointing on your life.

Father, in Jesus's name,

I pray that this season,you'll send a new anointing

on your wonderfulpeople, Lord, bless them,

use them, meet every need in their life,

and give them a love for youthey've never known before.

- [Pat] Yes Lord.

- Dearest Jesus, for your glory and honor,

wonderful Jesus.

- [Pat] Let it be.

- We give you the praise,and meet every need,

including physically.

In Jesus's wonderful name.

Amen, amen.

Thank you Pat, for lettingme talk about that.

- God bless you, I'm so glad to see you.

- Thank you, thank you.

- Wonderful.

- And I'm praying forAmerica, that America will see

a new move of God, becausetoday we need the message

of the cross more thanever in this country again.

- [Pat] Exactly.
