Jimmy Swaggart Press Conference about Jim & Tammy Faye 1987 (pride before the fall)!

Sawggart, for all he was, was exactly right about Christianity not being an amusement park. It’s about Christ crucified and resurrected.

[@karriphillips5090]

Looks like he made his own amusement park & exclusive reservations......!! Your eyes need to be opened- stop believing the mask that jimmy presents.

There's nothing wrong with finding some joy in life. You don't have to walk around in a blue jean skirt for women or long sleeves for men. You can me happy and be saved.

[@realshanegray]

For all he was? He is reaching the entire world through SBN right now.

[@Prov26-11]

@@realshanegray Not true; Swaggart wants you to believe 'he's all over the world". SBN isn't in Mosul Iraq; not in Jakarta; Romania, Soul Korea or Tehran. Only 3.5% of the donations are from foreign countries - and those are pretty much: Canada, SAfrica and Australia. It's a sham and the Swaggart network is a constant infomercial to hock CDs and merchandise.

[@karriphillips5090]

He was speaking from his own guilt, which means he has a lot to answer for on that day.

[@BlaiseKiwanuka]

He enjoyed the demise of Jim Bakker and Marvin Gorman and talked about them sanctimoniously. Yet he knew he himself was deep in lasciviousness up to his neck!

[@karriphillips5090]

This is the work of darkness to do such things. Jimmy cannot look within his own soul because he's a servant of unrighteousness that's why he's content with pointing to other people's sin...believing he will never be discovered for who he really is. He is deplorable! He is great at decieving the blind and unsuspecting. These people are under his spell from hell. Sorcery & devination at work in this whole deal.

Yes, for me that man was one the best five American preachers pentecostals and baptisp in the history that God use them along with Billy, David Wilkerson, Adrian Rogers and Charles Stanley I heard from my childness, I heard the baptism of the Holy Ghost from his sermons in a full stadium when I was a child and when i was an adult that it came reality but in that event He should have kept silent and even less to have been involved in those accusations...I felt for him the next year i was in 16 years old...But this helps us not to look at the strange straw as many ministers and brothers do until now imitating his dissolution as in many Latin American congregations still occurs; I continue listening to this man until today at 90 years old, it has been a blessing; for that to have happened to him at that time is because the Lord loved him very much and had to humillate him and now the rest of preachers of his promotion have all died too, the Lord keeps him alive so that he can continue preaching the beloved gospel as he knows how to do guided by his Spirit, the Spirit of the lord! Please I want mercy, not sacrifices

[@ronaldshank7589]

...and yet, come to find out, he'd been involved with a Prostitute since sometime in, I believe, 1986. He got busted for it, though, in 1988...& then went on TV, giving everybody the ol' sob-job, pretending to be sorry, and asking for the forgiveness of The Almighty...and then, at some point afterwards, went back out, and did the same thing again! He got busted again in 1991, and told people, that it was, and I quote:"Flat-out none of their business"!!!

Ironically Jim Bakker would be replaced with Dr. Jerry Falwell a Southern Baptist over a pentecostal ministry.

[@combsjon33]

He didn't say anything wrong. 1:30 even said ,if he repented, he'd try to help him. BTW, jimmy swaggart repented. Why is it we want everyone, and God, to forget all our failures we haven't repented of while we like to remember what jimmy swaggart did repent of. His wife stayed with him, and trust him. His congregation is still with him. So all is left is an opportunity for Pharisees to judge motives and hearts

[@atommuffin]

That only means Swaggart should be in the pews and not behind the pulpit. We are bound by the word not to follow deceivers.

It might have something to do with hypocrisy and irony.

I love all you lovers of Swaggart . Most likely your a Pentecostal . Jimmy Swaggart was living a life of hypocrisy . Standing in the pulpit. While he is committing secret sin in his life . He is the great condenser of Catholics . Yes they are in a false religion but Swaggart was trying to play God . Swaggart is a nut job

[@glennrobinson7193]

Jonathon You're right. It's the hypocrites, the church world that are today's pharisees that love to kick a good man when he's down. I have always seen Swaggart as a man with a heart for God. I believe God has shown me that the deceivers everywhere dressed up in sheep's clothing AND their millions of followers leading millions to hell are a million times worse than Swaggart's slip ups.
