Because when he speaks, it compels us who know the truth to have to speak up and correct his lies. I have other material I intend to post about, but must take time to address the words of the one respected as America’s Preacher, because he is truly America’s deceiver! I’ve already pointed out how this liar twist scripture to encourage the downtrodden to send money to his cronies. How he rolls in the ill gotten gains himself. And the overall sacrilege of his teachings. Now here I must post again, praying that nobody falls for his claims that Christians should take comfort in yoga and “breath prayers”. I’m not surprised that “breath prayers” were recommended by the misguided man named Rick Warren. Know that the Lord speaks against repeating words mantra-style.

Notice, Jesus said, do not do as the heathen do. Jakes realizes that nowhere in the Bible is yoga recommended. That to meditate on the Word of God is not yoga. We study and pray for help from the Lord, but we don’t do yoga and incantations as people involved in eastern cults do. We should not even mimic the ways of heathens.

I also find it interesting, when Jakes makes statements like “your current religion”. It’s as if he’s also offering council to people outside of the Christian faith, on how to remain true to something other than the teachings of Christ. He knows his post in Newsweek’s On Faith section is read by more than just Christians. It’s not like an apostle of Jesus Christ who wrote a letter to a fellow Christian or Christian church in the Bible. So Jakes knows he is offering generic terms, that will serve people who reject Jesus.

If we know it was born from sinful practices, we Christians should not participate. We know others participating are not doing it to the glory of God and their participation will not draw them to Christ, but have them more acclimated to the actions of heathens. Our participation might lead others to embrace the activity of heathens. And for our own sakes we don’t do things that we know are from cults.

The apostle Paul suffered more abuse than airplanes owned by T.D. Jakes and Paul was able to endure through prayer, study of scripture and the grace of God. He never used unclean practices like yoga. I must again agree with my brother healtheland, it is sinful for T.D. Jakes to recommend the actions of heathens while he claims the Christian faith. But as I’ve said before, I don’t see Jakes as a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Even in his current actions he continues to fail the qualifications for the title “bishop”.

His mouth would be best if he kept it closed.
