That may be true but sometimes the charges also turn out to be true. I guess we won’t know for sure until we get to other side of the veil. I also used to look up to Ravi Zacharias and I believe God used him greatly to bring many to salvation. People refused to believe in the accusations against him at first because they seemed so out of character. Ravi went to the grave without admitting to his guilt in public. Yet according to Lily Hsu’s account, Nee actually confessed to his crimes in secular court so even if the reports are true, Nee showed signs of being repentant at least more than Ravi.

Interestingly there are actually similarities between Ravi and Nee in Wang’s diaries. Ravi was a very private person and those closest to him didn’t really know him or know what he was up to. According to Wang’s diary, Nee got annoyed at Wang when he tried to get close to him and Nee appears to have valued his privacy. Imagine the Apostle Paul valuing his privacy. He didn't have an opportunity to do so while he was chained to a Roman guard while writing his letters which was likely a blessing in disguise.

I also used to look up to Mike Bickle when I went to a charismatic church and then this happened: https://julieroys.com/report-mike-bi...-abused-power/

What's interesting that in all three cases, there was hard evidence that all three men were often seen with women alone who were not their wives.
