Now consider the Word of God.

1 Timothy 2:8-10 (New American Standard Bible)

8 Therefore I want the men in every place to pray, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and dissension.
9 Likewise, I want women to adorn themselves with proper clothing, modestly and discreetly, not with braided hair and gold or pearls or costly garments,
10 but rather by means of good works, as is proper for women making a claim to godliness.

Meanwhile, you come here trying to defend trying to promote fashion. Haircuts prevent waste and bugs from living in your hair, it has a useful purpose. Getting new clothes when the old are worn out keeps you from freezing when outside and keeps you from showing “private personal parts”. Getting nails trimmed keeps you from cutting yourself or someone else with excessively long nails. A manicure or pedicure can help to prevent hang nails, big dry bleeding cuticles, painful corns and such. The only purpose an earring has is to say LOOK AT ME WORLD I’VE GOT FLASHY IN MY EAR.

And we’re not talking about any person, but someone who is supposed to be in the role of a church elder. Not that I view him as such, but he claims to be such. And so I take you a few verses further in the Word of God.

1 Timothy 3:2-3 (New American Standard Bible)

2 An overseer, then, must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, prudent, respectable, hospitable, able to teach,

3 not addicted to wine or pugnacious, but gentle, peaceable, free from the love of money.

Claiming to be a church elder, Jakes is the LAST person in the church who should be doing anything that might be seen as not being totally above reproach. If there are sinners who see an earring as something for women or bad people, an elder does nothing to promote Christ in wearing fashion accessories that are of questionable origin and leave even some sinners asking questions.

Notice my foundation for my point, the Word of God. Versus your foundation for yours, fashion and society.

Gossip, Gossip, and More Gossip.

The picture was posted publicly and altered publicly. So it’s not some “gossip” but proof, that Jakes puts up a front.

All of this energy is being used to criminalize a man for something that is between him and the Lord!

He claims to be a pastor, so he is to be an example for his flock. He’s shown a bad example, so it’s a matter that impacts MANY. Some claim he is something like “America’s pastor”, which means pretty much a whole nation has good reason to consider when he puts up false fronts.

Is he without sin? NO! Are you? Absolutely not.

Is he posing as a church elder? Yes. Am I? absolutely not. And still, I don’t go around altering pictures of myself, to make people see me as someone who looked one way at an event, when I actually looked different. In fact, I don’t go around parading pictures of my face all over my web site and such. There’s a message for you about TD Jakes in Matthew 23. Lord willing you’ll find it.

Do you have to listen to him? NO! You have free will to choose where you will go to church, listen to whomever you like, and take from it what the Lord has provided for YOU!

I also have a mandate from God, to expose the the viper named TD Jakes, Ephesians 5:11-12.

Have any of the posters thought about praying for this man in General. Jesus is still in the business of answering prayers benifiting the growth of His kingdom.

Whatever anyone does here in regards to prayer is for their closet and not a matter they need to report to you, Matthew 6:5-6.

Let He who is without sin cast the first stone.

When someone here attempts to stone Jakes to death, please call the police.

If the Lord will deliver a harlot in Person, don’t you think he can handle an ear ring?

You speak as if saints are not to warn fellow saints of men engaged in evil things. I’ve already shown you I have foundation for my actions in speaking about the matter. Did you actually take the time to read the other material I’ve provided for you, to recognize TD Jakes is a false teaching covetous viper? Well I’ll provide it for you again now, plus one more.

The Sacrilege of T.D. Jakes.

DO NOT Question the power of GOD!

Are you saying Jakes wearing an earring has something to do with the power of God? Since I should not question the power of God, I’ll keep doing what I’m doing, because God has informed me to warn of vipers like Jakes in His Word.

Let He who is without sin cast the first stone. If the Lord will deliver a harlot in Person, don’t you think he can handle an ear ring? DO NOT Question the power of GOD!
