TD Jakes' Response?

[@StephanieLWJ]

Him, as a pastor, at those Puff Daddy parties with strippers, etc. is all anyone needs to know. Why are you at those parties!?

Friends with the world is enmity with GOD. Everyone stop using that argument that Jesus sat with sinners … he ate with them and preached the GOSPEL to them and to repent!

[@ahnraemenkhera7451]

Accountability would actually de-frock them from ministry & cause them to “make redress,” in any Abrahamic religion, strictly practiced. An ancient phrase & idea, but nearly all “laws” are rooted in it. It means to proactively compensate for the harm, damage, injuries & injustices caused by an individual. “Redress.” Repair. Repay in-kind. Restore. Until the people harmed the most have been restored to states of wholeness, the “sin” or sinful acts are not requited. Particularly willful harm. One CAN claim the sacrificial offering-up of one’s “savior” as an appeasement from punishments to come, said to lessen the severity of harsh conditions, etc., etc. But, for every sacrifice one makes, one’s “priest” (leader) is required to make two (2) acc. to the scripture also. Seriously undertaken & intentional misinterpretation has long, long, long presented “belief” itself as redemptive redemption, & so being pre-forgiven in advance of one’s next “sin” (or harmful act) has inspired ideas of absolute impunity under religious cloaking to be widespread, extending from the medieval clergy down to everyone/anyone unwilling to endure any material consequences today, globally. (How convenient is that??😂😂🤣😂🤣😜🤣🤣) HAD the religious organizations instituted some governing standards, wherein leadership & followers were actually scrutinized and held to any evaluation levels that were universal to the whole, they all might have been able to better substantiate their claims of having had a religious “practice.” Lawyers have a practice. Doctors have a practice. Musicians have a practice. All held to standards of evaluation for credentials as well as credibility. Religious “practice” patently & materially remains so subjective as to exist in virtual chaos & in constant conflict with other religions in the USA-concept, stemming from its European colonial concept usages of “religion” both as a power base & as a foil for wars & acts of war. Religious practice has little evidence, if any, of ever having actually been put into practice in the USA-concept as any sort of governing dynamic-or even concessionary dynamic-between people. Otherwise, Injustice, Disparity, Mass killings of entire villages, enslavement, etc. WOULD have been tempered-in some tangible way-by a preponderance of “religious people/religious communities,” historically over time. Yet that has never occurred, never was legally inscribed. Religious practice, since the age of Televangelism, for all proven results & intentions, currently is primarily an Entertainment venue, broadly speaking. You will find very few “strong beliefs” backed by behaviors, by actions, very few even knowing what Religion is, nor its fundamental purpose, & very, very few religiously practicing anything except “lunch hour,” every day, at all times, consistently & “faithfully” as is often claimed. IF they do, or have done so, where’s the proof of its religious impact? Systemic Injustice/Racism has had global impact. All religions draw their official charters from that System of “getting everything done,” acc. to “race.” “Race” being just as mythologically-based in scientific terms, as Religion, & furthermore relying near-exclusively on phenotype genetic traits. Therefore, it is accurate to say that the most powerful, most successful & most dominant religion worldwide, that people HAVE strictly adhered-to & abided by all rules under is, most evidently, Racism/Systemic Injustice. ⚖️🕯⚖️🕯⚖️🕯❄️⛄️

I've really reached a point where I'm not surprised with any rumors. - just because I've been in the church as a musician, and seeing more behind the scenes for my whole life. And I try not to get involved with the gossip of individuals. But I DO speak on the bigger picture, and the bigger picture is that the whole mega church/prosperity gospel culture is going through a reckoning. More people are finally stepping away from taking offense to critique about what and who they love, and are actually seeing different things for themselves - one of those main things being seeing their heroes (and some would even say "idols") fall from grace. Not that every single one of us doesn't have things that could get us in hot water too, but I think it's about how we handle certain situations and certain topics. If a preacher can preach a deceptive "gospel" to you, what makes you think they can't deceive you in other ways too?? That's just where I am these days. From growing up, knowing that so many of our male Gospel singers are homosexual, to knowing that so many of our preachers and pastors are freemasons, and everything in between.

He's SHOOK and, no doubt, scared. You can see it! He keeps talking in past tense, too, like he knows it's over.

[@deeperlife5689]

Bro Corey I fully appreciate and agree with the content of this video. 👍🏽

[@justincoffey2692]

His water downed response is a direct reflection of the lack of care he has for the people he blindly leads

[@nwatson2773]

They blindly follow

[@thebridge707]

I found his crying to be unforced almost like when a child cries while lying, knowing they are caught.

[@JosefwitdaCoatOn]

I recently lost my son. I promise you, I no longer care what people think. And when I say “I don’t care” I mean it. Great video!

[@carlamcneal8941]

My condolences and prayers go out to you 🙏🏽🙏🏽. I’m with you on not caring what people think or for that matter say about me

[@craythachef7774]

🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@jadenjames5086]

My son went to heaven recently as well and it hurt so bad. I'm seeking God and looking to the right teaching, but what I'm recently been getting is this mess. I need real teaching of the word of God.

[@VictorianMaid99]

I pushed her in

[@warrenanderson3691]

@@jadenjames5086seek and you will find… I know first hand what your going through. It will come

[@robingramm4]

The problem with his response is he didn't cuss anybody out or call people names. He kept it respectful. I pray that Bishop finds Peace in this storm.

[@mistyflores3176]

TD Jake's let fame get to his head. I attended his congregation and was baptized there prior to all this. Very different atmosphere.

[@sherrycarter6222]

Either way this comes to light that its true or not. It breaks my heart . The sermons that have come from pastor Jakes through the years have been so impacting to my life and Christian walk. I pray to God the truth comes forth. Because either way damage has been done . If its all a lie, then the lie needs to be put to rest once and for all!

[@jackfrost9411]

Actually feel for these guys... there is another tier of hell for the ones who had the responsibility of the masses ears and hearts... i turn and walk away with my head down for them... its gonna be HOT...

[@garythorington1600]

Sounds like the congregation sure supports him

[@nicolagrant5450]

He's like Jesus. Same as some see the pope

[@roseaduke8835]

Eddie Long's congregation supported him too.

[@GinnyB8230]

​@@roseaduke8835you are right. Where there is smoke, there's fire. His spirit tells me he is guilty.

[@deborahday1786]

Some of those supporters know the truth even through their “amens” and “hallelujahs.”

[@user-by2ix2kk4g]

I'll pray for him and his congregation. Personally, I do more praying for non-believers & the body of Christ than giving my opinion, which means nothing. Especially if it's not involving me directly. We need to be mindful that we will all stand before God & give an account for everything that comes out of our mouths.

[@AngieSargent]

Wow! You are really good at breaking this down. I believe he's gaslighting his members. It's so obvious

[@garyteague9555]

As a pastor and if I was accused of this, I would have said what they said I did was a sin and them that do homosexuality are lost and need to repent , I’d preach against the sin of compromising and i would preach against these people that love the lifestyle of perversion like P Diddy and the likes of him and others participate in and why of all the times I’ve heard Td Jake’s preach this is the only time I’ve heard him cry ? This was a red flag to me although I shed tears when I preach also but it was just strange that he cries when it’s about him and not my lord

[@onelife7850]

God bless you, my brother. I appreciate the wisdom with which you analyze these issues.

[@marvinellison8727]

To live in the Spirit is to walk in the Spirit which means to live a life that depends on the Spirit's power to grow godliness, obey God's Commandments, and experience increasingly intimacy with God. Mercy triumphs judgment. Love is fulfillment of the Law. Pray 🙏

[@Ayo-zz6gq]

Well said brother 🙏

[@uniquelymade6760]

There is also a video of his security guard at his studio dancing on stage to.. put a ring on it... by Beyonce and TD standing there smiling and moving to the music...

[@allisonmarie7678]

Sickening to watch

[@jenniferblair1060]

It should never come to this where any pastor name should be calling in such sewer bottom nastiness. Our leaders should be blameless as much as humanly possible. The devil has already taken over too many of these pastors leading itching ear people astray.

[@yolandeshields3636]

The way he addressed the so called lies, he played it safe just in case the lies are true, because he "said I'm not perfect, but I didn't do what they said I did." But you did something.🤷🏽

[@BonnieGates-f7g]

He’s guilty guilty guilty And God has called him out

[@vmac38]

I would say, we should absolutely pray for him but, slander hurts most when there is truth or hint of truth mixed in. We should also pray that when he does preach from this point on that it be biblically grounded, not just peppered with scripture to make it sound good.

[@nicolagrant5450]

Hope he changes.

[@thebridge707]

A sucker is born every time I blink

[@GoldenGraham25]

I’m honestly sad - if it’s true or not, the Lord will have His perfect way with all parties involved.

[@SupaMan810]

Amen

[@marandawoods9615]

I love the humble way you presented this video

[@sialee5926]

No need for church, where the pastors are wolves in sheeps clothing. Make your home, your place of worship!

[@regal9242]

TD Jakes : lot of suspicious stuff going on...

[@washingtonsteven6885]

Man you nailing the break down of him exactly 👍🏽

[@Watchman_7]

We need to pray for him and his family that they will repent. Any one of us can find ourselves in a similar situation. We do not wrestle against flesh and blood. We also need to be mindful that we don't fall into the same condemnation.

[@bibleprophecy4400]

Why do people even listen to him, it’s been proven already that he’s false. I need more truth not more exposure to these fake people. He’s one of the top five false preachers. I’m so tired of all the false teachers. It’s getting to the point I don’t trust anyone. More Biblical content please. 🙏

[@bigbluetruck3464]

We can pray and speak the truth too...Jake's put himself in this POSITION.....

[@johannah6]

Ohhh no no no not when you are where u suppose to be n be doing ,y r u mingling with the unbelievers like that

[@vanesagvl9095]

He's doing much worse than attending Diddy's parties. He likes boys from 10 to 15 years old. He will be exposed and will even die. God has announced this through one of His prophets. He will not tolerate his sins anymore and the ones who defend the abuser will be handled like him.

[@pearlsofwisdomdesign]

That’s an excuse to do nonsense.

[@kingsagenda]

My heart goes out to his wife.

[@davimule003]

Amen! I feel pride has grown beyond the brother and sin has abound in him to the extent of it reaching the throne of God in Heaven. We still pray for him and the flock

[@switchurnotions]

Mercy is needed in all and for all. Although justice must prevail in whatever capacity and for whatever is found true. Life is not neat nor pretty.

[@maryhelen7734]

Where is the part where he said, "even if i am guilty, all i have to do is repent and it i covered by the blood."

[@fremar1983]

Apostle Paul said in I Thessalonians 5:22, "Abstain from all appearance of evil."

[@doriansaunderschristfirst]

I agree with you, but I also think he is addressing the audience to ease their anxiety. He can see it on their faces, as well as feel their unrest.

[@shirleylynn323]

All the more reason to explain the Association with P. DIddy. If you've absolutely nothing to hide. Love your followers enough to offer Clarification to shut down the rumors.

[@rickys7163]

Eddie long all over again just better production

[@k3nn3thinatl]

The fact that Jakes is so bothered by this says a lot. This isn't the first time rumors have been released about him, and he usually ignores them.

[@1olive1olive4]

Someone explain to him that addtessing it indirectly is actually STILL addressing it! Lol

[@vic.nicmusic]

His response was so sassy lol

[@craythachef7774]

Facts 💯 It was coming out smh dang

[@rebeprice4400]

That's the word I was looking for very sassy

[@deborahday1786]

Yes. Anyone with discernment can see exactly who he is. He’d do better to just come out and tell the truth.

[@TURN_TO_CHRIST79]

A little too sassy

[@danmarley2886]

Purge out the old leaven that we may be a new lump. Church government is lacking, therefore sin runs rampant in the church. As a body the church is given authority to put away wicked persons among us, the brothers so called. We need to use that authority, to use that power, and have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. To God be glory!

[@darrylbragg3888]

He’s not okay if the rumors are true. Because he’s worried about possibly videos coming out. Video is everywhere and he’s not sure what might be out there about him

[@Dinoking0731]

Gaslighting in full effect

[@Isaac862]

Well done this video was levelheaded and full of grace. Merry Christmas.

[@DonnaDiane74]

I thought he wasn't going to address it? Lol Me: "He STILL talking bout it?" Also me: "Yea." 🤣

[@VS-xs9hc]

😂

[@tonnictotaltonnic7545]

This is so long. Mr Jakes has proven himself to be a lover of position and fame. Now he is pleading with his die hard congration to present himself as innocent of the accusation.. Howevver, the receipts don't lie. Now, if you are sorry, and have a contrite heart, then ask the Most High El for Forgiveness. Repent and (turn from your ways), and change Accordingly to Righteousness; Privately, Like king David! Amen, Amen!🙏🏾😇

[@paulvelasquez6943]

He is shaken that he has been exposed. Judged by the company we keep. Ok to be in the midst of sinners for God's work but not at those parties or whatever they are. Pray he gets right with The Lord.

[@factzjoneslisten8403]

They put him in a rock and hard place because if he preaches against homosexuality he will lose everything

[@lizhall5350]

I'm more concerned about the disgusting state of his congregation

[@tosin8401]

Pastors - even famous ones - should always remember they’re not celebrities. They’re pastors. They should address issues like pastors and not the way celebrities would

[@stormship1647]
