Husband of Evangelist Juanita Bynum Charged with Spousal Abuse
Comments Below: 221
Church members are shocked to hear that a popular Atlanta-area televangelist may have been the victim of spousal abuse.
Police say Juanita Bynum was attacked by her husband yesterday in a hotel parking lot.
The couple married five years ago in a televised wedding.
Now there are different versions on what happened.
Atlanta Police Spokesman Ron Campbell says "The victim had, was assaulted by her husband. She was choked at first, and while she was choked he knocked her down and began to kick and stomp on her."
Husband's Attorney says "We're very clear that he has not been aggressive, that he has, you know, a very peaceful nature and he's been consistent with that.">
Campbell: "It was actually the bellman that was at the hotel that intervened, because of her being assaulted so bad he had to intervene."

If this woman is a prophetess then I am GOD.Me and my congregation live in a pverty stricken area of the south.She has a half rate knowledge of the bible.If I had a wife that looked like her I would cast stones at her.She and the so called bishop should be prosecuted like tammy"the makeup queen"baker and her ignorant husband jim.They are all christian frauds.Glorify God and pray for for the damnation of al sharpton and his lap buddy jesse jackson.

Evangelist Juanita Bynum Charged Husband with Spousal Abuse
I suspected their authenticity years ago when they spent Millions on a televised wedding… how old are they anyway? This could not have been a first wedding for both of them. They are just like most of the other TV and radio preachers that preach the prosperity Gospel. Do you really think that God is served when they fly around in their private jets and stay in Presidential Suites at Tens of Thousands of dollars a night? Drive Bentleys and wear clothes that are custom made? Do you not know that God does not look on the outside but rather on the inside? They spend more money on one suite of clothes than it would cost to clothe an entire family in one of the third world countries that we are supposed to be sending missionaries to. Why don’t they preach their prosperity Gospel in those countries? Why don’t they ask for their “seed” money in countries where the children are starving? I read the story in the Bible about the widow’s mite so I know the truth but you are right, we do need to pray for them. They will have much to account for in the Great White Thrown of Judgment. And if you are sending them money, why not find a local church to tithe to and go regularly and see where the Holy Spirit prompts you to put your other offerings, which is money given after you have tithed. So if you are sending these expository preachers money and you are NOT tithing to a local congregation, you are out of the will of God. Think about it.
tithing is old testament
tithing is old testament law--Christ fulfiled the law and we are under grace, not law. If we are going to try to earn God's favor, we are under a curse. we are saved by faith in Christ alone. research new test to see what Paul taught about givig under grace, not law.
What, then, does you heart
What, then, does you heart tell you to do? Does your heart say "keep it all, it's mine and I worked hard for it"? Well, then you might want to question who it is that really lives in you. Does your heart say "Give to those who have so little when you have so much"? Well, then maybe you have the right spirit. God/Jesus wants us to support those in need. I tithe because it is so little to give for so much good. I tithe because the church can give to those in real need better than I can (I don't give a red cent to those panhandlers I see everywhere. If they need help, there are churches all over that are more than willing to help). So, don't give? Are you really that selfish and self-centered? Or do you give to be unselfish and Christ-centered? The choice is apparently yours.
tithling is old testament
RENDER UNTO CESAR WHAT IS CESAR AND RENDER UNTO TO GOD WHAT IS GOD BUT DO IT RIGHT!!!!!
God Bless You Woman Of God

pray instead of belittle
Let us just pray for marriages and for our leaders. Also know to put God first and everthing else will fall in place. I agree with some of the eariler post that God that it takes money to run a ministry and God wants us to have and prosper but to use it the right way. Again pray instead of belittle.
Juanita Bynum and Bishop Weeks
God Bless to all....I was shocked to say the least at some of the postings that I've read but I am no one to judge. I am here to share my opinion. Brothers and sisters in Christ let us remember that the Bible says that those whom speak against their brothers are committing homicide. We must remember that it is God and only God who assigns authority and we must be subjected to authority. We must also remember that the only one we should have are eyes set on is Jesus! What happened to Juanita Bynum is unfortunate and in no way do I agree with what Weeks did but not only will the Lord be glorify but it will also show others that we are human. There are a lot of ppl that idolize Bynum and Weeks and lose sight of the Lord. People make mistakes, people go through trials. Do not let the devil win by bashing Bynum nor her husband. Remember that what God establishes no one can break.
We must forgive all, lest we forget all the mistakes that we've made and the Lord forgave them all. Let's remain prayerful that the Lord will teach all of us from these 2 anointed from God. Let us remember that nothing in life happens by coincidence but is the Lord's will. Even Bynum herself said that she will use this as testimony and God will be glorified.
Remember that the devil is a liar and the media can make things worse. Let's pray for the situation so that in the news they will show the mercy, grace, and glory of God.
God Bless
Posts like this....
...posts like this are the reason I spend all my vacations in New England and are why I plan to leave here and move THERE when I retire! I am a Christian who is sick to death of the Religious Lunatic Fringe in this city, who are partly responsible for keeping Chattanooga from progressing at the rate it could.
What mystifies me even more is the fact that such drivel, usually from the same few people, is printed daily in the Letters to the Editor.
It is a turn-off to anyone of any intelligence and certainly is a deterrent to anyone who might want to relocate to Chattanooga. At the least it perpetuates the negative stereotypes that have always plagued our city.
I'm with the respondent
I'm with the respondent here. I'll help pay your way if you leave RIGHT NOW. Don't wait. You might have to suffer more of the same blessing and exhortation. By all means, GTE OUT NOW!
I'll meet you at the bus
I'll meet you at the bus station and buy your ticket. And I'm not even religious. Keep your "progress" (gay marriage and apostate priests, government sponsorship and subsidation of 'art' at the expense of basic services, excessive taxation to subsidize same, the "green" movement lie, and carpetbagging politicians who've been here fifteen minutes from all over the globe to impress their Orwellian views on us dumb Southerners) to yourself. This very day in history in 1863, we dummies came within inches of recoiling your aggression back from Gettysburg to Washington. Watch, for better it may happen again. Say hi to that lunatic Bernie Sanders and nutcase Howard Dean when you get "home".
Jesus is Lord!
Amen, My sister, Amen
WE MUST BE CARFUL,WATCHFUL AND DISCERNING!!!
FIRST LET ME SAY THAT THE MAJORITY OF THE COMMENTS I CAN TELL ARE FROM SINCERE BELIEVERS WHO FEEL THAT FORGIVNESS IS THE MAIN THING, AND TO AN EXTENT THIS IS TRUE. HOWEVER, TOO MANY SPEAK ABOUT THE COUPLE AS THOUGH YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT OUR LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST. I CAN HEAR THE REVERANCE IN YOUR SPEECH,ON HOW "PHROPHETESS" HEALED YOU SPIRITUALLY, OR DONE THIS OR THAT, REMEMBER SHE IS A VESSEL LIKE ALL OF US, MADE OF CLAY, FROM DUST WE ALL CAME AND AND DUST WE WILL ALL RETURN, DON'T BELEIVE WHAT YOU THINK YOU ARE GETTING FROM HER YOU CAN ONLY GET FROM HER OR "BISHOP" WEEKS YOU CAN'T GET FROM PRAYER, FASTING, READING AND LIVING GOD'S HOLY WORD.THE MESSAGE IS BEING OVERSHADOWED BY THE MESSENGERS. PLEASE, TAKE TIME TO SEE THAT WE HAVE ALLOWED THEM TO BECOME "little gods". WE MUST KNOW THE WORD, WHICH CLEARLY STATES YOU MUST NOT PROFIT FROM THE GOSPEL. THIS IS THE GOOD NEWS OF SALVATION, ETERNAL LIFE AND A NEW LIFE. THE GIFTS WERE FREELY GIVEN TO THEM, AND THEY SHOULD FREELY GIVE THEM TO GOD'S PEOPLE. TO PREACH THE GOSPEL IS AN HONOR AND A PRIVILEDGE, IT WAS NOT MEANT TO BE PROSTITUTED AS IT HAS BEEN, BY "PROPHETS, BISHOPS,AND SO CALLED "APOSTLES"(PLEASE NOTE THE DEFINITION OF AN APOSTLE INCLUDES ONE WHO "SEEN" CHRIST, THE ARE NO MODERN DAY APOSTLE, WE WHO BELIEVE ARE DISCIPLES OF CHRIST, NOT OF JUANITA BYNUM, OR T D JAKES OR BISHOP WEEKS. WE FOLLOW THEM AROUND THE COUNTRY PAYING FOR THE RIGHT TO HEAR THE GOSPEL, SPENDING MILLIONS ON BOOKS, GOING TO MEGA THIS AND MEGA THAT, FOR WHAT? EVERYTHING YOU NEED IS FOUND IN GOD'S WORD, HE DOES NOT GIVE SOME SPECIAL CODE THAT ONLY THEY HAVE KEY TO.THEY HAVE MADE YOU BELIEVE THEY ARE SOMEWAY HIGHLY ANNOINTED, AND THEREFORE SHOULD BE BLESSED WITH ALL THIS MATERIAL JUNK. "PROPHETESS" BYNUM SPENT MILLIONS ON HOMES CARS JEWERLY HOW DOES THIS GLORIFY GOD???GOD DID APOSTLE PAUL CHARGE THE PEOPLE HE PREACHED THE GOSPEL TO?DID NOT ACCEPT ANY GIFT, NOT EVEN CLOTHES. HE WORKED FOR A LIVING AS A TENT MAKER, AND TRAVELED LONG DISTANCES TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL, AND ESTABLISH CHURCHES. THE APOSTLES THEN WERE GIVEN POWER TO HEAL THE SICK ,AND RAISE THE DEAD, CAN YOU IMAGINE THE KIND OF MONEY THEY COULD HAVE MADE, THEY MUST HAVE BEEN OFFERED ALOT, BUT TOOK NOTHING. HOW CAN WE EVEN ATTEMPT TO JUSTIFY THE LAVISH LIFESTYLES OF OUR SO CALLED SPIRITUAL LEADERS?? WE CAN NOT AND SHOULD NOT.GIVE YOUR BOOKS AWAY, GIVE CONCERTS AND CHARGE NOTHING, HAVE MEGA FEST WITHNO CHARGES, NO OFFERINGS, NO CHARGE FOR ANYTHING, AND THEN ,MAYBE PEOPLE WILL BELIEVE THE MESSAGE, BECAUSE NOW YOU CAN'T TELL THE REAL FROM THE FALSE, EVERYTHING IS ABOUT PROSPERITY, THOUGH THE ONLY ONES PROSPERING ARE THE "PROPHETS".WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH A MAN BEATING HIS WIFE, EVERYTHING, BECAUSE YOU WEEP AND WAIL FOR JUANITA, DO YOU WAIL FOR NAMELESS THOUSANDS WHO ARE ABUSED EVERYDAY? YOU CALL A NATIONAL PRAYER FOR THIS "ANNOINTED COUPLE", DO YOU YOU PRAY FOR YOUR OWN SPOUSE?GOD SAID HE WOULD BRING DOWN OUR HIGH PLACES, AND ONE BY ONE THEY WILL FALL, STOP IDOLIZING THESE PEOPLE, STOP BUYING THEM MANSION, 250,000.00 CARS, PRIVATE JETS. IF THEY ARE TRULY CALLED THEY WILL PREACH FOR NOTHING, THEY'LL TAKE THE BUS TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL, THEY'LL FEED THE HUNGRY, CLOTHE THE NAKED, VISIT THE INPRISONED.THEY WOULD DO WHAT GOD CALLED THEM TO DO, WITHOUT TAKING ONE THIN DIME FOR THE HONOR.LETS STOP THIS MADNESS, A BE ABOUT OUR FATHER'S BUSINESS, MAKE DISCIPLES. THE CHURCH WAS NOT ESTABLUSHED SO THAT A PRIVILEDGE FEW COULD LIVE LIKE THEY HIT THE LOTTO. LETS REQUIRE MORE FROM OUR SPIRITUAL LEADERS, THAT THEY LEAD BY EXAMPLE, NOT JUST WORDS. I PRAY FOR US ALL. READ, STUDY, MEDITATE, AND HIDE THE WORD IN YOUR HEART, YOU WON'T BE LED ASTRAY. GOD BLESS.
RE: be careful, watch, and discerning
IT IS TRUE, WHAT YOU SAY. THE BIBLE SAYS TO BE SOBER, ALERT, AND PRAYERFUL BECAUSE DECEPTION RUNS RAMPANT. PAUL DID WORK TO SUPPORT HIS MINISTRY AND MOST OF THE APOSTATE TEACHINGS HAVE BRAINWASHED THE INSTITUTIONALIZED CHURCH PEOPLE, AND THEY WORSHIP THE CREATURE RATHER THAN THE CREATOR. GOD SHARES HIS GLORY WITH NO MAN. FREELY IT WAS GIVEN AND FREELY IT SHOULD BE GIVEN. OFFERINGS WERE TAKEN FOR THE NEEDY, AND NOT FOR "PROSPERITY". WE ARE TO SET OUR TREASURES IN HEAVEN AND NOT TO LOVE AND COVET THE THINGS OF THIS WORLD. THERE HAS BEEN TOO MUCH FLEECING OF THE FLOCK. GOD WILL SURELY HOLD US EACH ACCOUNTABLE. PAUL TAUGHT US TO STUDY THE WORD AND NOT TO TRUST IN MAN.
I agree with most you say
Traveling, publishing the books and even renting the space for the conferences cost money; everything costs money, advertising costs money. I think there should be an option for people to pay. I know when she came to orlando a few months back,you paid during the day and it was free for the night.Money should not be the main empahsis,however operations cost money,that much I cannot dispute. I don't think it is a sin to live in a nice house or have nicer things.People of God often have this stigma that if you are doing God's work,you should only live a life of poverty or mediocrity.Jesus said,"I wish above all thing s t hat you be in good health and that you prosper as your soul prospers.He also said the wealth of the wicked is laid up for the righteous. Some of God's servants lived very limited,while others like Job and Abraham were very wealthy.He knows who he can trust with what,is just that you have to know when he blesses you,it is so that you can be a generous blessing,and let the cycle flow. HERE IS MY BIG ISSUE...with ALL the money she and her husband collected through various outlets,how in the world could they be in debt?They obviously
lived way above their superfluous means, and that's where the sin lies,in the gluttony and mishandling of God's blessing.I am a child of God and know it is in my future to be a very wealthy woman.I am not greedy,or stingy,and I know it is to bless others,and spread the gospel.BeforeI am a travelig missionary,I will have money established from the early career God sent me to do.I refuse to feel bad about having nice things because of that.That's not my main focus,and we shouldn't judge Christians because they are well off.We should look at instead how they handle the blessings,and if they have idolized the very same blessings.She started off with good intentions,satan slipped in and corrupted her mind and she became superficial and exorbitant and God will deal with her on that(he started already! "he that exalted him self shall be abased)." People are way too dependent on these "prophets" to guide them and the blind often leads the blind.We need to try people by their spirit and by their fruits we shall know them.1 failed engagement and 2 failed "God ordained" marriages(there are many voices!!) should tell you this is not who you consult about marriage and the debt tells you not about finances either.Haste makes waste and I will pray for her because she may have a sexual addition because from what I know this marriage took place quickly after meeting each other,and sometimes we want a companion,and some people sex so bad that we marry to hastily before really praying(and being patient to let God speak) and searching the person in the spirit. Happened to a family member as well and now he is very unhappy and has been spiritually told he didn't marry who God had intended him to marry(enagaged/married after 6 months of knowing her!).Ouch. All we can do is read his word,abide by it,and let his predtermined destiny manifest,and seek him first and let him be our navigator with the means he gives us.
YOU'RE WRONG- The very first
YOU'RE WRONG- The very first part of Phillipians is Paul giving thanks to the people of Philipi for their GENEROSITY and gifts that they sent him while he was on house arrest....and what about Solomon...jesus came to give life and THAT MORE ABUNDANTLY.Solomon was FAR from poor....job wasn't poor....neither was DAVID- and ECCLESIATESE clearly states that one should ENJOY the fruits of their labor.YOU can live poor if YOU want to, but why would God go to PREPARE A MANSION FOR YOU IF he didn't intend for us to have such things???
Well said. Mega Mess
Well said. Mega Mess
response to this speaker
I honestly could not have said this any better myself. As I've stated before, those of us who are TRULY in RELATIONSHIP with God saw this all coming to a head a couple of years ago. People need to get their own minds back and stop worshipping these mean people who pick-pocket you every chance they get. Some even claim to be 'INTERNATIONAL Ministries!' Claiming that when you give, you're also giving to help the 'poor' in Africa and wherever else they can think up. Do your RESEARCH people. If your wealth (and seriously lack there of in most cases) is becoming increasingly LESS, you need to stop and think about the game that's being played. Most of the so-called BISHOP'S, PASTOR'S, Co-PASTOR'S, EVANGELISTS, APOSTLES, PROPHET'S, PROPHETESSES (what the heck ever happended to REVEREND's???? guess they didn't make enough money) stopped PREACHING the GOSPEL YEARS AGO! I heard J. Bynum "preaching" the other day something about "it's LAW that another woman has her eyes on your man!" What the ....??!!! I'm still looking through my Bible for that one! I swear, all BARK and no (real) bite! And Paula White...(LOL) don't even get me started on that 'poor white messed up Mississippi girl.' I'd like to see her plastic surgery bill. It has got to be OUTRAGEOUS! It's also amazing how close Pastor has become to MASTER. Nevertheless, I WILL continue to 'PRAY' for these lost souls ("spiritual leaders") amongst us because it allows me to utilize my earned dollars to take care of my FAMILY, which is what GOD intended from the beginning.

Body of Christ please lets uplift the man and woman of God in prayer: I had to repent for not taking to God we must believe God to make the change and the difference we love you and know that God is able to still change what the devil meant for the bad/.he can change it to the GOODE:healed delivered blessed family the weeks family we
Thank You
Not only did this shed light...but it was conviction for me. I just found out what happened to the couple...and I was like WOW!!! But I just wanted to say Thank YOU for your word...it made me stop and realize. God Bless!
consider this
I do understand your point of view and I would warn you to guard your heart don.t let your heart harden or become bitter. when jesus died on the cross ,immediately after his death the bilbe says that there were men and soilders selling his clothes for money . his clothes had healed someone and I'm sure the crowd knew this and the people wanted something tangible of his. even though these acts were questionable did it in anyway affector take away from the crucifiction or the ressurection that we honor today. no, what these people do with the money they get from the work they do is there business all three of the people you mention have devoted their lives to what they do . and all who work should get paid. the minstries that they have are businesses that employ people and pay benefits and take care of other families and may I add that all theses people are authors, singers, producers ,on a very large scale .they are gifted . talented and have a valid message that the body of christ has favored . the church is not fooled you can hear the annointing in the message .the messenger is chosen by God.Peter was chosen, when he stabbed the soilder in the ear in a fight as well as when he denied christ. dont get snarred . if the message is christ it will save and help somebody. God will use anybody anytime and anywhere.the people that you mention invest time and money in bringing speakers together to edify , enlighten, and encourage the body of christ on this journey til jesus comes back. we get strenght from each other to keep on keeping on.I appreciate what they do and I will continue to support them and pray for them when they fall as they pray for us, greed and excessiveness are demons we all have to fight.the meaga churches that eixit today are the" greater things " jesus prophesied about.dont let your heart become judgmental.keep your eyes on Jesus .we are encouraging a brother and sister that are in direct attack .on all sides. things like this keep your pray life more diligent and it warns the body of christ to stay prayful God teaches in many ways.God will get the Glory from this .
Spousal Abuse
Mrs. Bynum ...As I sit here and type this letter I'm praying and asking God to release that yolk.Sometimes it's real simple to be blinded by the devil. What were trying to keep together God almighty is trying to pull apart.Only God knows what really happned and thats between you and Jesus he has all the answers.I say to you get out don't wait for something terrible to happen put your running shoes on and keep running because any man that knows Jesus does not put his hands on a woman no matter what the circumstances may be. love you and I will continue to watch your ministry. Sincerly Gwen S.
i'm a babe in christ i
i'm a babe in christ i haven't been save that long this a very big distraction for me for some reason i always like to investigate before i involve myself in anything which means i read my bible first and then went to church an listen at the pastor that way i would learn the right way to live holy what i 'm saying is read your bible because man will quote scriptures and rephrase it totally different for what it really means the bible donot lie ISAIAH 56:11 yes, they are greedy dogs which never have enough and they are shepherds who cannot understand, they all look to their own way every one for his own gain from his own territory. TITUS1:11 whose mouth subvert whole household teaching things they oughtnot,for the sake of dishonest gain.JEREMIAH 5:27 AS A CAGE IS FULL OF BIRDS SO THEIR HOUSE ARE FULL OF DECEIT THEREFORE THEY HAVE BECOME GREAT AND GROWN RICH JEREMIAH 5:30 AN ASTONISHING AND HORRIBLE THING HAS BEEN COMMITTED IN THE LAND THE PROPHETS PROPHESY FALSELY, AND THE PRIEST RULE BY THEIR OWN POWERAND MY PEOPLE LOVE TO HAVE IT SO. BUT WHAT WILL YOU DO IN THE END.MARK 12:38 BEWARE OF THE SCRIBES, WHO DESIRE TO GO AROUND LONG ROBES, LOVE GREETING IN MARKETPLACE THE BEST SEATS IN THE SYNAGOGUES AND THE BEAST PLACE AT FEAST. MICAH 3:11 HER HEAD JUDGE FOR A BRIBE, HER PRIEST TEACH FOR PAY AND HER PROPHET DIVINE FOR MONEY. RAGING WAVES OF THE SEA, FOAMING UP THEIR OWN SHAME.WANDERING STARS FOR WHOM IS RESERVED THE BLACKNESS OF DARKNESS FOREVER,SAIDS THOU LORD. CHRISTIANS READ YOUR BIBLE AND STOP LISTENING AT FLESH THEY WILL LEAVE YOU STRAIGHT TO HELL.
prayer
The enemy was allowed in through whatever difficulties have taken place within the marriage, now you must get him out, then move toward reconcilitation if it is to be so. Certainly the devil wanted to take down 2 heavy hitters for God and disillusion many under their following, those that would come to Christ because of their ministry and also discredit the Christian movement, we must be careful of what we do that allows the enemy such room for destruction.
I am in prayer for the both of you as well as the members and the ministry, but your salvation comes first.
May God's peace and direction rest upon you both.

God will see you through
My dear Sister Juanita,
My heart goes out to you. My message is that I will pray for you like you have prayed for us all. You are an anointed woman of God, and as Jesus suffered, so do the anointed. Your mission will not be stopped or thwarted. You know that you will be under spiritual attack because you are about to give birth to a revival that will strengthen multitudes of people and bring vast numbers to God through Christ. As you sang when you came to the UK the song,
'I will never let go His hand', you just keep on holding on, as this too will pass and the pain will subside. You have a mission to fulfill and assignment to deliver to God's people and to the world and that is the reason for your being.
You will be strenghtened, and your fortitude will break the yoke of bondage for many people across the world. This is your time Prophetess, this is your season.

"Definition of Suffering for Righteous Sake"
Sweet heart I thought that I will insight you on the definition of Suffering for his Righteousness,that does'nt mean that she must suffer with what her Husband did to her.Let's understand that Jesues d'nt die on the Cross,to Suffer "Spousal Abuse."Just thought a little Enlightment of Suffering need to be Understood for the right Definition,Suffering for the Cause of Righteous Sake that we may Inherit the Kingdom Spiritual based on the Word of God,That we Ought to Live Sanctified and Holy.
Its Prayer Time
Father in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the curcified one, the One who Sits Entroned, our Savior, Master, the Lily of the Valley, the Prince Of Peace, there is no peace without you, there is wonder working power in your precious blood, we call upon you to be the judge because we should not judge in the matter of Juanita Bynum and her husband Bishop Weeks. We know that you said in your word that you hate divorce (we lift up Paula White and her husband too, and the exception for divorce was if a woman violated husband with adultry- he should put her away. This day Lord, the exception for marriage is not till death do us part but till love leaves her hearts. We also know that we must forgive, love, and bless those who persecute us as it is written.
We know that we war not against flesh and blood (as it is written) but we war against principalities of evil in high places- we command in the name of Jesus that it is well with your servants like the woman in the bible whose son was dead but faith in you and in your word restored him to life. We call those things that are not as though they are and we speak love and life into these marriages in the mighty name of Jesus. We decree that things are being turned around even now Lord Jesus for the good and according to your will and other marriages are being restored too. So said, so done.
RE:THE WEEK,S INCIDENT.
Lets not judge God,s annoited.Let us instead lift them up in prayers. God always take care of His own.Evangelist Juanita Bynum, I will continue to remember you and your husband in my prayer.May God heal both of you.
People should stop passing judgement for no one is God or knows His mind.We need to start praying for all our leaders if we have not been doing so.
God bless.
RE:THE WEEK,S INCIDENT.
According to the scripture we must confess our wrongs.No one can judge a woman or a man of God. 1 Corinthians 2: 15. For the scipture saith,Touch not my annoited.Let us as children of the most High God lift the Week,s family and all our leaders in prayers.The effectual feverent prayer of the righteous availeth much.
I love you with Godly love and will contnue to pray for you.
GOD BLESS.
You are Strong
God will see you through this situation. Stay in prayer,and hold you head up to christ.
God Bless you!
Satan is really attacking
Satan is really attacking relationships. Another TBN product, Pastor White and her husband Randy White announced they were divorcing; they did this over the pulpit last week.
Lets not forget we are in the last days.
Speaking of Divorce
I am on the verge of gettin a divorce from my husband. We have been married for twenty eight years.I believe that we focus more on our spouse than God. As a christian, I believe that divorce is a no no, but if you are a christian,and single, God can get more out of you. Maybe divorce is not so bad if you are seeking a closer relationship with God.
Satan isn't really attacking
Listen, listen, listen...my sisters and brothers in Christ. Please know that what happened was done by Bishop Weeks (not the devil). We as Christians camouflage so much! We can't blame everything on Satan. What Thomas Weeks did was wrong! He should receive prayer (and) justice just as any other individual! God be with you, Prophetess Bynum and Thomas Weeks!
Juanita Bynum
She is the annointed of God and satan attacks even more the anointed than non believer's by using those we love and those we are closest to stop their purpose. I was abused for 18 years physically and emotionally by my husband and the only thing I have to say about it and what I have personally learned is that abuse happens because we allow it, just like evil happens when good men do nothing. I am not judging her husbands actions, which indeed were barbaric and shows he definately needs help, just by the fact this was exposed it shows God allowed it for a reason, and what the devil meant for destruction God will turn for Good for those who love him. But I just want to give my message because I know how an abused woman feels and how she wants so desperately for her husband to change because believe it or not we love our husbands. Only God can change him, but as a woman only we, the abused have the power to get out of the situation and or stop it, no matter who or what or how many opinions she is given. Ultimately the decision is hers and only hers to stop that situation or do something about it. PRAY FOR HER! She is anointed but she is only human and she can only draw her strentgh from God, who are we to judge them? that is between her, her husband and God. I love you Juanita and ultimately God will lead you to the place and the decision you know you need to make! By: Janei in Miami.
My heart broke as I heard
My heart broke as I heard about this incident this morning. But I do know this...God can take a situation that seems hopeless and turn it into what something that will blow your mind. I am radical enough to beleive that God can fix anything...even this and work it together for not only their good, but the body of Christ as a whole.
Lift the Weeks family as you have never before. Be careful what you say about them both. I don't disagree that he was wrong...just don't stop praying for them
My heart broke as I heard
My heart was broken. I never thought that a man og God would something like this. It wasn't the devil that made him do that, he allowed it to happen and it did.She need more prayer like the rest of us.
Hypocrites - All of You!!
In the face of not knowing what has happened, why are any of you making such cut and dry comments and drawing such final conclusions as to what has happened in the marriage of the weeks family. At best what any of you have are pure speculations, assumptions and emotional outburst of rage, and you really don’t know “anything” about what, who, how and why things happened the way they did. And what went on in the house hold of the couple in question. What if “just try and look beyond your emotions for a moment”> what if there was horrendous emotional and verbal abuse coming from both parties that lead to the final results of physical abuse, then neither party is innocent of contribution to the fall out of this marriage. My point is “STOP JUDGEING AND START PRAYING, NOT JUST FOR HER, BUT FOR HIM AS WELL”. Who are you to play God, shut-up, keep your wicked comments to yourselves, pray and believe that God will and can fix this too. LET GOD BE GOD.
How come we are hypocrites?
How come we are hypocrites? We saw and heard what U saw and heard. I have not drawn any conclusions as of yet. Facts speak for themselves. No matter what lead up to this assualt, he sinned by putting his hands on her. U cant ignore the facts!!! Im not saying that Juanita Bynum is a saint, because the Bible say that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory. She is a woman like the rest of us. But she deserves the same respect and admiration as any woman would concerning not being beat by a man.
How come we are hypocrites
since you know you are a hypocrite
frist get the plank out of your own eye than you may be able to help us stop being hypocrites.
who are we to look for facts to decide who is right or wrong, if God is not trying to figure it out why should we.
I believe God hand picked them for this task and He know how He is going to bring them out.
our job is to pray and stay on guard because the next attack may just come on our end of the front line
Reply to "Hypocrites-All of You"
I have one word....religon. It sounds to me that you are bound by a religious spirit. It's easy to make "cut and dry comments, and draw such final conclusions" when you have the spirit of discernment. Before you pray for Bishop Weeks, wait and hear from God on it and see if he wants you to pray on his behalf. I think Weeks saying that the devil made him do it is a cop out. A mirror was held up to his face and he doesn't like what he sees so he blames the devil. He obviously has some anger issues that he needs to work on. You can't fix what you don't believe is broken. Until he repents and admits his wrong doing....there's no hope. As far as judging goes, I know that whatever standard I judge someone else I will also be judged. Is it judgement to call a sin a sin?
It doesnt matter.....
I have drawn no conculsions on either of their behalfs, but one thing I do know, is that he had no right putting his hand on her. How is that being a Hypocrite? No, we may not know the whole story behind the events leading up to this assault, be we do know the end result and that was Bishop Weeks assaulting his wife, nothing else needs to come from his mouth but remorsful words. No matter how mad a person gets, it gives no one the right to assault or injury the other party involved. They both need prayer, but he needs to repent. There is no way I could sit under his ministry after what he has done.
GOD IS SPEAKING
I really don't know where to start with this, I am still seeking God on how to pray for the both of them. There is no doubt in my mind that Prophetess is just that, she is called to the nations, and I believe that we all have gleaned from her ministry and our lives have never been the same. So many are asking the question " why couldn't she hear from God for her own situation?" I'm telling you, I have wondered so many things myself, I'm still baffled over the fact that I had just seen her at a conference in Orlando Fla and then 2 weeks later I hear on a radio station that she was on the ground in some parking lot under the foot of her husband!!!!??? I am still heart broken, I looked up at God and asked " what is this?" I know we all love her but I promise I'M HER #1 FAN. Yall lets please pray for her like she has done for us, she needs all the BYNUMITES all over the world to stand in the gap for her. Of course it is obvious thay she has been going through for quite some time, and I'm sure she will learn the lesson........just like she has always taught us nothing God puts on us will kill us but it will process us. Go back and look at some of your tapes and you'll hear her mention her marriage many times. So she has been in warfare for quite some time, maybe " we " dropped the ball by not standing in the gap. Her mother in law said at the conference in so many words that we have drawn from her strength, now she's in a place where we need to give back to her, so the cry went forth 2 weeks prior to the incident. I honor God for that. To whom much is given much is required. Bishop Weeks married a very powerful woman of God of whom the world has a high demand for her calling, I'm sure it was not easy for either one of them. We may not know exactly what happened but we aint crazy either. So let's quit trying to FIGURE IT OUT and allow GOD TO WORK IT OUT, BECAUSE TRULY HE IS THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN. Maybe she needed to slow down and maybe he needed to stop trippin', maybe it was money, maybe, maybe, maybe..............and the list goes on. Remeber the tape where she was talking about being stressed out because the church holds people to high sometimes to be human. I'm telling I believe will work a miracle through this because for so many years preachers would tell couples to stay together even if they were killing each other. Marriage is a touchy subject when it comes to ministry and that's why God is gonna set the record straight!
On the other hand, we can clearly see that a weapon has been formed but thank God it won't prosper because we are labourers and we know that the harvest is plentious. The world is being tricked into believing that televangelist are false and we know that aint the case.
Bishpop Weeks I;m not leaving you out.......I just don't know you that well, I pray that God will also heal you of your hurts and meet you in those places where only God can go. I believe you are ashamed and broken but you too will get pass this.
FROM THE #1 BYNUMITE!
VIRTUIOUS.........I'M TRUE
TO THE CALL!
are YOU SERIOUS???!!!
Ok, when did you stop being a CHRISTIAN or even a BELIEVER and became a bynumite...lol. You have GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!! Do you know how FOOLISH this sounds???!!! I mean SERIOUSLY. I was about to go to bed when my wife and I read this and we were floored by your comments. 'Now watch this' Ms bynumite: last year Ms. Bynum was in GA at a conference. At the end of this conference she called for a couple of prayer lines, one of which she mentioned was "a $1,000 line." This one poor lady 'all caught up' and got in the $1,000 line for prayer." When she got to the front (and wasn't holding her $1,000 "gift-offering") Ms. Bynum embarrassed her and told her, 'honey you must have misunderstood, this is the $1,000 line' and the poor lady, who was only seeking prayer was escorted out of the line. Now, personally, I stopped WORSHIPPING PEOPLE a couple of years ago. I suggest you do the same!

Your comment is very good.
Your comment is very good. Because I 'm a born again christian also and guess what all of us have some dirty laundry in our houses that only the Holy Spirit can clean-Up. And when God raises both of them back up , I will still receive a word from both of them together or apart. Because nothing can change gods word. My prayer is that one-day , that they could get back together as husband and wife.And don't worry about what man thinks.
To Prophetess Bynum- Listen to "Behind the Veil"
I lay on my belly every morning and cry out to Our Father as I am ushered Behind the Veil by your singing. You have taught us to go behind the veil and seek the presence of God in the midst of trouble. May the peace and presence of the Lord come to you a thousand time stronger in this hour. God will make you whole and heal your heart. And "Yes", you can face us those of us who love you and are praying for you. He will tell you what to do next. Only listen to Him.
You have not disappointed anyone. We know who is behind this and we are stronger because of it. So, it did not work, devil!!
Behind the veil -- Amen !!!!
Yes prophetess -- you have brought forth the word as
we have been led behind the veil in the presence of
or ( abba ) .You are truley awsome & loved by many
battered - women , just know that satan was trying to
stop God's blessing that was being brought - forth , but he couldn't , he only delayed it for a moment .He
doesn't have the power or aurthority over God's chosen vessels . Just keep seeking him & the things of him & he will give ( you ) the desires of your heart .I'm reading your book prophetess -- the threshing floor & I
didn't understand all the levels you had to go through
to get behind the veil -- this book is so ( deep ) that
I had to lay it back - down a few times to be able to re-group from it , before picking it back up & moving on & I have yet to finish it , for God lead me to your
book for preparing me as 1 of his intercessor prayer
warriors also . I will go before the Lord in your
behalf & know that I know by ( FAITH ) , that God
can & will fight this battle for you . It's a dangeous
thing to mess with God's ---- children . I feel so sorry for Satan right now , but God is a God of --- mercy . May God restore your mind, strenght , peace & for he is a ( God ) of restoration in Jesus name !! . You have been such a blessing to me , more than you will ever know & had not ( God ) allowed me to go through the storm myself -- than I would not have followed you .I have also been blest with your book matters of the heart -- in which God will lead me as to when I need to read this book for ( healing ) -- before he can release my blessings , that he has enstored for me . Everything that the devil has taken from us -- God will make him give us back ---double
for all that he has taken from us...Praz'em2
an observation
actions speak louder than words out of the mouth does the overflow of the heart come. He was wrong dead wrong and sinful in his behaviour I wish the church would start calling sin for what it is sin!!! Yes he will be forgiven if he asks but you know what repentance is a way of life you turn away from the sin evermore not just the moment. I wonder how many of us so called born agains have ever really experienced true repentance?????? I have no respect for authority like this none zero but thewn again no man or woman is my Jesus!
an observation
If you are really in observation yu would see with the spiritual eye instead a a carnal eye that this attack is God warning us all to get out of our comfort zones and prepare ourselves for an unexpected attack. The enemy is trying to kill the influence that the church in gaining on people in the world. It not about Mr and Ms weeks, it's about the enemy trying to destory marriage becasue he know that homosexual and all the other sexual pervision will have an open door to our youth. the next generation
this is why it is so important they we do not get distract by the little foxes of gossip, judging, pride, arrogance etc.
Keep it real
Domestic abuse is real people wake up! Domestic abuse is the single major cause of injury to women, more that accident and muggings combined. Every 8 seconds or so a woman is abused. (Keep It Real) I hope Juanita Bynum teaches greater from this horrific experience and exposes the spirits behind abuse.
We must not use chriatianity to cover up a mans crazy life threatening behavior!Wake up and see that Bishop Weeks is out of control and is hiding behind blaming the devil.He seems to be very arrogant and manipulative.Vengance is the Lords
God will and shall get the Glory for what is to come from this horrific mess.
prayer is the key that
prayer is the key that unlocks heaven's door
PLEASE REMEMBER
TO THE WEEKS FAMILY
PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A GREAT ATTACK THAT COMES EITHER JUST BEFORE OR RIGHT AFTER THE GREATEST BREAKTHROUGH . KEEP YOU HEAD UP HIGH THE EMEMY MAY HAVE GOTTEN THAT ROUND BUT PLEASE DONT LET HIM WIN THE WAR
TAKE YOUR PRAISE UP TO THE NEXT LEVEL FOR IT IS THERE THAT YOU WILL ONCE AGAIN MEET WITH THE GOD OF ALL VICTORY'S PLESE LET THE PEACE OF GOD RULE IN YOUR HEART AS YOU LET THE LORD GOD OF HOST FIGHT THIS BATTLE
TO ALL MY BROTHER'S AND SISTERS IN CHRIST PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU SAY CONCERNNIG THESE AND OTHER MATTERS FOR WITH THE SAME JUDGEMENT THAT YOU PASS ON OTHERS IT WILL COME BACK IN YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE AND WHO WILL MINISTER TO YOU THEN?
LET US PRAY FOR OUR LEADERS LIKE NEVER BEFORE
Leaders are also role models
Leaders are also role models and Given the current state of young african american males this was one of the worst examples!The youth are crying for Great Leaders I don't dispute that Bishop Weeks may very well be a man of God because I dare not question who my Lord calls and annoits, but it is my feeling that befor you take a seat in a postion with such influence and power ask yourself are you and can you represent christians and our people with inegrity!
leaders are role model
Jesus is our only role model
so is parents but they still fall short
leader's are also human in nature
leaders are role model
Jesus is our only role model
so is parents but they still fall short
leader's are also human in nature
God has the final word
Hello and God bless you all.....
Situations like this is unfortunate but it has been going on throughout time. This is another attack by the enemy towards christian families. If you go back and look at Cain and Abel, Esau and Jacob, David and Absalom...This is an attack towards every christian family throughout this world. The devil attacks families because your first ministry is your home. If you can't minister to your home, how can you minister outside to others. Why do I say this? Satan knows if the head falls (people in position of authority) the body (the people, the congregation) will soon follow. Why? Because many people in churches today eyes are glued on man and not God. This situation should drive us to pray more for our leaders as well as others. I pray in the name Jesus as God brought my marriage from the pits of hell; where man said I would divorce for that reason, man said I could not forgive what he/she done, but what those God say. The Weeks/Bynum family needs our prayers...The effectual fervent prayer of a rightous man availeth much...Lets speak life and not death. Have a blessed day!!
"Wolves in Sheep Clothing", God is Pulling Off the Covers"
I feel sorry for Juanita, but God said in the Last Days he would pull the cover off of those that are not his.
Wolves in Sheep Clothing???? No, A Cry for Help!!
Please remember- they are still MAN & WOMAN. They will (and they have) make errors in life everyday. Will they sin b/4 GOD, the same as you & I. I have no idea what led to this event- what caused him to feel that he could only prove his point was by beating her. B U T..What Is IMPORTANT!! He as a man should N E V E R--- N E V E R!!! touch a woman. Stomping her! Kicking her! Choking her! OR even a slap, pushing her or verbal abuse ( whether she verbally abused him or he verbally abused her) The ABUSE!! should not be tolerated- regardlss of his being a Man of God or High profile figure or whom ever. If the bellman had not stopped him, she ( that is if she already does not) she could have serious injuries or that beating-stomping-kicking could have resulted in DEATH. THERE ARE NO WOLVES IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING. Yes, it is a Sin-He was wrong. He as well as She need our prayers & help. Neither one of them are, GOD- only GOD is prefect in all His ways. I understand everyone is shocked b/c they are GOD's messangers. But that is just it- They Preach/Teach the word of God. They are NOT GOD!! Maybe he does have charater flaws & possible so does she. But no one should be shock that domestic abuse would occur because he or she is a preacher/ministry/bishop.. or in any other man/woman of God.( Let's be truefully- woman phy abuse men also) It happens daily and what people fail to realize or understand, They- the preachers of God's word also need counseling. It never crosses anyone's mind that a preacher needs a lending ear. To be told YOU ARE WRONG! That thet need to be steered in the right direction in their personal lives. That ear could it be you-is there a man or woman that preaches/teaches God's word & need you to help steer them. Remember God sends them to teach us so we can inturn go out & teach others. Is there someone you should be listening too. Steering in the right path- That person could be teaching God's word or a everyday person. I know several ministrys & preachers personally & they need that friend - people that can tell them they when they are wrong or just listen -Trust me they need ministering as well, just as they minister to us. And I try to be that to by pastor friends. I feel they should be required to to seek counseling on a regular bases as well as marriage & family counseling. I pray that this situation (b/c of their position in this world) will bring domestic abuse to light showing that it is strong in families where there is a preacher/pastor or teacher of the Word. Let's not forget the wife that killed her husband because he abused her. He would preach to the church & go home and abuse her. Domestic abuse is an international problem that needs to be corrected by the masses. No there are no Wolves in Sheep's Clothing here. I see all teachers as God's word as men and women 1st. Perhaps you have had a bad experience w/the church or a minister. And this experience has marred your view. Please don't let this cause you to continue to look down on the church. The church is a wonderful and glorious place to learn- You learn abt God's Word, how the handle daily situations, it brings abt a calm/a peace to you and most importantly it brings you closer to God. I know, you say Bishop Weeks should also have all of this-peace and understandng. But you can only obtain this if you are willing to let God in. Somewhere along the way he lost GOD-he lost his way. Remember- God did not loose him. I feel sorry for him & her- I don't pity them.I'm also worried that they might not bouce back from this. Also remember- the 12 disciples were murderers- they stole- still carried a sword (at least one of them. He would fight at a drop of a hat)- lied- denied God... etc.etc. And most of the poeple in the BIble that were chosen to be Biblical heros- had a terrible psat & still committed sins while trying to follow God's teachings. Nothing has changed. This is an on going struggle. Take time & think- what programs you or someone you know should start to help ALL people. That program could be in the church or out in the world. Maybe this situation is your answer to help those of domestic abuse or to start a group for those that are down on the church.And at the sametime heal you. I don't thing you are down on God. But perhaps down on the church. REMEMBER- THERE ARE NO WOLVES IN SHEEP CLOTHING- THIS IS A CALL FOR HELP. Purchase a teaching bible that allows you to read the full bible - at your on pace- the teaching bible reads like a story. But it will give you more understanding of a lot of things. Now please don't think I'm versed in the bible- I have my own teaching bible that I read ( I will admit not on a daily bases) But it has helped me thru some ruff times. I pray that you find a church that teaches god's word- not how to find wealth in God- But teaches God's word. Remember to listen to the word that is being preached and not look at the person preaching it. And if you know a pastor/preacher of God that needs help- OR - a lending ear. Possibly you are that person they need. Perhaps you are that person that can steering them on the right path or possible help a friend or co-worker or family member out of an abusive situation. Blessing and Favor to you always. !!!
wolves in sheep clothing
the same measure by which you judge other shall be measured unto you be careful what you speak out of your mouth. it just might be a boomarang
What's new?
So what are you saying (wolves in sheep clohing)? Are you saying that they are not God's because of what happened? Be careful to judge who is and who is not God's children. The Bible also says that there is nothing new under the sun. What happened to the Weeks has happened before as we all know and it will happen again. What makes this so shocking is that these are people who teach the Word of God and they have been seen on television the world over. There are a million reasons we can come up with as to why this happened. I just want to remind you of God's servant "David." David committed terrible sins in the Eyes of God, but he asked for and received forgiveness. I hate this terrible thing happened. It hurts my soul. We as the Body of Christ must condemn what happened, but we cannot become judgmental, example: He must have done this or that, or no, she must have done this or said that. To us it should not make any difference. As believers we should be praying that what the devil made for bad, God will fix this situation so that it helps a lot of men and women in the same situation or those who may be heading in the same direction...
I have known this young man
I have known this young man from birth. He has always had very arrogant ways. He really needs to repent and ask God to forgive him of what his has done unto this woman of God. I know what it is to be abused by someone who calls themself Godly, but are wolves in Sheep Clothing and it was about time God pull the cover off of this young man.
What you 2 do for the lord
What you 2 do for the lord is awesome. Alone you are a threat to the enemy, but together you are an even greater threat. The enemy himself know this and just as "we" do, anything/anyone that pose a threat he aim to get rid of it before it get rid of him. But he is only doing his job "to kill, steal and destroy". He is aiming high cause he know his time is getting short and couples like "yall" pose the greatest threat to his kingdom. I want waste time trying to tell you how to overcome this, somehow I believe being the warriors that you are, you already know how. From what I have read of your past, you have always trusted God through it all, now is no different, lean to him even more. Shame the devil, put him to a flight, let him know "he aint done nothing". I dare you to be bold and ask him, " is that all you got!"
You know from past experiences God will never leave you, he's still there. Be strong in the Lord. God Bless You.

You kind words and bible based thinking are a blessing in the midst of concerns and life struggles. He who hath beguna good work in you will perform until the day ochrist jesus..
Thomas Weeks is a coward and
Thomas Weeks is a coward and a wife beater. His savage assault on his wife is inexcusable.The Bible instructs believers that we must be "doers of the word"."Faith without works is dead". Calling him out of his abusive behavior is not judging him. The ultimate worthiness of his soul will be judged by God alone. Calling his behavior what it is, is simply good sense.
My prayer is that the Lord will use this incident to take the issue of domestic violence and abuse to the front of the church agenda. Too many abusers hide behind the word and their positions while trying to make the victim wrong. There is NEVER any reason for a man to abuse a woman, verbally or physically. It is a BLESSING that this abuse was reported.
The church community must speak up on this issue! Each day, many Christian women silently suffer abuse from the men in their lives. For too long, women have been asked to just "trust God" to see them through. The reality is that while we're trusting God, we've got to move our feet. The outworking of our faith will liberate us from the patterns of abuse in our communities that often go unaddressed. Women should be encouraged to report their abusers and supported in getting out of harms way.
I hope that Bishop Weeks will provide a good example by stepping down from his role in the pulpit to focus on true repentence and healing. His credibility has been lost. He can't stand before true men and women of God as a leader until this has been put behind him.
And women, we are a force in the church world. We've got to mobilize and take a stand as well. Together we can have a huge impact on the way that women are honored and respected. Here are some actions we can take: Talk to your pastors and let them know that domestic violence should be addressed from the pulpit. Call upon the righteous men of God in your church to also take a stand. Set up a help line at your church so that victims of abuse have a life line to lead them to safety. Support women when they report abuse, embrace them instead of making them feel as if they're the one's who have been ungodly. Call out abusers to those in leadership. If they don't respond, call outside authorities. Often abuse victims are too traumatized to speak out on their own.
This confusion is not of God. Let's create a bit of "heaven on earth" by taking this issue on and ensuring that our chuches aer safe havens for women and children.
I agree with you 100% on
I agree with you 100% on what you have said. On sunday morning my pastor made some comments about the incident about Junita Bynum. From the pulput he was questioning whether the incident really happened, it was her word against his etc. I was very disappointed by his remarks because he never took a stand against domestic violence.He never once mentioned that a man should never hit a woman. Reading your comments will probably give me the courage to address this on a one on one basis with him. I would like to know that the leader of my church will take a stand against domestic violence. I really appreciate your comments because I was not sure if anyone felt the same way I did.
Response to your concern regarding your pastor's reponse
Did your pastor not hear that there was an eye witness to the incident. So then it was not her word against her husband's. But the most important thing is that it should have been brought to the congregation in scriputal presence. That if a man loves himself he will love his wife. And if he loves himself he will not hurt or harm himself. And if the two do not walk in agreement. One should go to the east and the other to the west. When we as chritians take these opportunities to show how we are supposed to act and that is according to God's Word in our daily situations, we would not have what we have seen publized in the case of Junita and Bishops Week's case.
Thomas Weeks Is A Coward
Very good comments. It is high time this behavior toward women be brought to the forefront and dealt with. It is the Lord who will judge sin, but is the responsibility of each man to cover his woman and be protect her from harm, not to do harm. It happens to much in the church and nobody wants to say anything for whatever reason. Not only is there spousal abuse, but there is also child abuse (physical and sexual), homosexual acts against children, and other sinful activity. It's time for it to end. It's time for the church to be the church and take a proactive approach in dealing with these issues before many are driven away and injured spiritually.
Psalms 105:15
Hello and God bless you...I am in agreement with most of what you said. I do not agree with Bishop Weeks being a coward because he must stand before God for his faults as well as us; and God will make that call. Yes he is wrong, dead wrong, but he is still God's anointed, and we must keep our mouths off of him that we not cause ourselves harm. If you remember David saying I will not touch God's anointed. David had many chances to remove Saul. But he waited and allowed God to remove him. Even though Saul had been told by Samuel that he will no longer be King. Yet David kept his mouth as well as his hands off of Saul.......This situation has been going on throughout time. This is another attack by the enemy towards christian families. If you go back and look at Cain and Abel, Esau and Jacob, David and Absalom...This is an attack towards every christian family throughout this world. The devil attacks families because your first ministry is your home. If you can't minister to your own house, how can you minister outside to others. Why do I say this? Satan knows if the head falls (people in position of authority) the body (the people, the congregation) will soon follow. I leave you with this. Pray for all that God has placed in authority. It is much needed...Have a blessed day!!
Understanding
I myself being a Saved, Holy Ghost filled sister, can empathize with all the comments made and the situation. Know one knows what goes on in anyone's household besides that husband and wife. You can talk to your friends and family, but behind closed doors, only we and God know what is real. I myself married twice, and my ex told my husband, "I have nothing bad to say about her except sometimes her mouth." Sometimes we know all the words to say and know the Word of God backwords and fowards, but what about sometimes how we act at home with our own husbands. Why do the Delilah's and the Jezebel's prosper. Our we a place of rest for our spouses or our we trying to be the heads at home as well. Even if we know we can do all things through Christ and are given all the power and knowledge that he gives us we are still subjective to our husband under Christ. If we have husbands in the church, the same Holy Spirit that leads and guides us can guide them as well. At home we can turn off the personas of work and school and whatever else that has stopped us from being a resting place for our spouses. Didn't Esther become Queen because of a woman who acted like she did not care about her husband? One saying I here among men is that "My wife can treat everyone in the world nice and talk to them right, but she can't do that for her own husband."This is not a reason for abuse, but sometimes instead of letting go and letting God we feel we have to have the last say so. We can draw them with honey
as the scriptures we must
as the scriptures we must confess our faults.All have sinned a come short of the glory of god.He who is without sin let him cast the first stones.Let us be mindful and just lift up the couple in prayer.The effectual fervent prayer of the righteous availeth much.My prayers are with the Weeks.
Be Still and Know
We as the body of christ hurt with this family. But let see what God wants us to see in this .Is ther a need for humility,forgiveness and submission and true love to be shown in the church more . is this an opportunity for the example of forgiveness to be shown to the church again when Jesus said Father forgive them for they know not what they do.does the act of contrition and humility need to be on display more. is God trying to tell the body of christ something more here.
Bishop & Mrs. Weeks
God bless you both, wasn't there, even if so my eyes could deceive me. No one but God knows your truth. We women don't have all the brut strength therefore, our mouth is sometimes our weapon. I wonder who drew first in this spat. Words can cut as deep as a knife, so then, was this a matter of "self" defense. Was this marriage built upon the love of God or for the convenience of both parties? The two rings didn't seem to seal the deal. Just curious.....Why wasn't Sis Bynum ever Mrs. Weeks? I thank God for my Pastor & 1st Lady, and His Father & Mother before him. They are truly annointed men & women of God, their examples continue to speak for them.
ms bynum
lets keep it real! iam a 38 year black man and the truth is that you both should be more of what you preach the LORD GOD hates divorce ! it your pride that goes before you ms.bynum and its about you ms.bynum not about our LORD JESUS! you could have helped many with the price of your wedding and ring living with no commitment at least you can go threw this with your phony friend paula white.... i have more and much more respect for bobby brown and whitney huston than you and rev but its more you and your pride than anything else your music really exspose who you really are match your life up to GODS word than go and do your singing so many of you are just phonys because when your in the same fire that you preach on than the surmon changes !
Sister! Misinformed
Sister!
Misinformed reasonings such as yours is part of the reason domestic violence has been cloaked in secrecy and been able to blame the victims-"woman" for her deaths, incapacitations (cripple, dismembered, nervous breakdowns).
What will you tell the children who suffer the violence where whole families who have been killed off by domestic abusers?
What did the children do to deserve their life snuffed out? Was "daddy please don't hurt momma" to (sharp a knife)words for their attacker?
Are these the words you would have spoke to the Bynum family had God's divine intervention through a bell hop not step in to save His prophetess life.
You are right, you were not there but even if you were with the rational you just displayed (because it had nothing to do with godly discernment, I do question your motives for your response. It sounds more like you are victimizing Dr. Bynum with the sharpened knives of your words!
Lastly, please be careful not to hold your leaders to your idea of perfection. Is. 42:8 "I am the Lord, that is My name and I will not give My glory to another!"
"REPENTANCE IS AVAILABLE SISTER"!!!
GOD KNOWS IT ALL AND SEEN IT ALL
LOVE DOESNT PUT HIS HANDS ON U LIKE THAT, BUT GODS GOT IT ALL IN CONTROL, FORGIVE HIM, LET GO AND LET GOD DEAL WITH HIM, BECAUSE THIS BATTLE IS NOT YOURS ITS THE LORDS, THE DEVIL DOESNT WANT TO TO RECEIVE WHAT GOD IS ABOUT TO DO IN YOUR LIFE SO HE TRIED TO HINDER IT, BUT GUESS WHAT HE DO NOTHING BUT STIRE UP THE GIFT IN YOUR LIFE, A LIVING TESTIMONY THAT WHAT U ARE, I LOVE U, IAM PRAYING FOR U, WATCH WHAT GOD DO.

Juanita Bynum's abuse
I am saddened by some of the terrible comments I have heard made about J. Bynum. Things like "she must have provoked him" and she's known to talk too much. Regardless what she said, that attack was brutal. I know that sometimes when people have deep hurts, you really don't have to do or say much of anything to provoke them. It seems like Weeks was at that point. He exploded like a canon on her. I believe they are both hurting. Only Jesus can touch and make them whole. They need our prayers. They also need help. We should pray they get what they need to fulfill God's purpose for their lives.
I will also say there are many Christian women in abusive situations. I pray for them also. I hope that their abuser is exposed. This kind of thing has gone on so long behind closed doors. God let it be openly exposed for Bynum... She didn't even have to report it.
Once abuse is exposed, the abuser can face their demons, confront them and get delivered. But if they continue to fake it and cover it up, the war inside of them will continue to rage and buildup and explode like a canon on the next victim.
Reply to "abused women"
Please ladies, stop the non-sense. There are so many abused husbands, especially in the black community where the preception is that the black woman can do no wrong and all the while she is abusive in child rearing, hence, drive by shootings; abusive in sharing the responsibilities of the household, hence, she is single; abusive in demoninzing her husband; hence, the lowest woman, among all other races on the planet. You figure. Was Juanita innocent ? You must be kidding me! She understands male "menipulation"; hence, no more sheets ? huh ? She deliberately provocked him. She ran after him in a public parking lot after he abandoned her abuse toward him. Yes, her abuse toward him. Who knows what disgust she yelled in his ear to make him loose it and defend himself. Let's be adults
what about the women that
what about the women that don't submitt to there husband as the bible told us. How many women live by Proverbs 31? Live by it not talk by it.
God loves you both
GOd loves you both, being confident of this very thing, that he who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ. For God knows the thoughts that he thinks toward you both thoughs of peace and not evil, to give you future and a hope not evil, to give you future and a hope. Then you call upon me and go and pray to me, and I will listen to you.
May God bless you. God keeps both and bless your marriage in Jesus I pray amen.
My Prayers are with you both
I was sadden by the news of what took place in Atlanta. Yet,what comes to mind is that he should forgive and love his wife as Christ loved the church. No! its not right what he did to juanita,and I'm sure she was not expecting it to happen.No,she didn't deserve being abused by her spouse.I will be praying for her,and Global Destiny Ministry-- because the world loves to lap up incidents like this,I pray that both involved would receive the ministry of reconciliation soon,and that healing would come to them both,I love you both in jesus name,and I'm praying for you.
This is not the end. Whether
This is not the end. Whether you two be together or go your separate ways. Prophetess you are a warrior of GOD. Gird up your loins. Bishop you to are annointed by GOD to do a powerful work in the earth, yet you the priest allowed the enemy to come in.I do not condone divorce because it is not the will of the FATHER, however because of the hardness of hearts where there is no reconcilation a letter for the sake of peace would be in order. Ultimately the adversary wanted to stop souls from being edified and GOD getting the glory. Neither of you let your heart be troubled. Be healed and made whole in JESUS name
Finally something good to say.
I am so happy that someone is saying encouraging words. I have seen the blogs and the secular world is jumping on this and having a field day. I know that God is with the two of them also. Like Donnie says "(We fall down)", A saint is just a sinner who fell down and got up. It is very refreshing to hear encouraging words. I am convinced of the last writers words. (Prophetess you are a warrior of GOD. Gird up your loins. Bishop you to are annointed by GOD to do a powerful work in the earth, yet you the priest allowed the enemy to come in). God bless the two of you and all the people that are praying for married couples all over. God bless everyone, let us keep our minds, unfettered and undetered from our goal. ( To bring the gospel to the masses.
Of course we are instructed
Of course we are instructed not to judge. But God stated that you will know my people by the fruit that they bear. No one knows the truth involving their strained marriage but both are responsible for carrying out God's calling FIRST and foremost. God's instructed his disciples to lay down your LIFE and follow me. I will make you fisherman of men. This is first in foremost in both of their lives. Not bickering and quarreling at 4am in the morning which leads to Bynum being visciously attacked. Where does your discernment come in to play....men and women of God. God instructed us to WATCH as well as pray. You know a fool when you meet one.
"He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk with your God." (Micah 6:8) The lost in the world and in the church need us to live life according to God's standards. We've reached a point where what we say out of our mouths no longer matters to the people of the world. James said it best, "You see that a person is justified by what he does and not by faith alone." (James 2:24) We have to live it.
Unfortunately time is quickly running out. Jesus spoke about many turning away from the faith in Matthews 24:9-13, and stressed that those who endure to the end shall be saved.
JESUS
JESUS
unreal...
People fall for BS like these people and those of their ilk on TBN.
