What should we say about TD Jakes.

Oprah Winfrey makes a passionate endorsement of Hillary Clinton in a “T.D. Jakes” interview to air next week.
David Lewayne Porter
Well,
Let’s be fair.
This is also a lady that was raised in church that thinks there is more than one way to get to heaven and please God.
She believes that Jesus is not the only way.
So,
Should anything else she says surprise us…
I think not.
Ricky Grimsley
I expect it from her but TD is sitting right beside her.
David Lewayne Porter
Well,
I have issues with him anyway.
He is not always as (spiritual) and “biblical” as he should or could be.
Ricky Grimsley
Yeah i hear ya. I listened to him give an interview when he started telling people that he was believing in the trinity. The position he described was textbook oneness. There is no way that he didnt know he was being dishonest. I was real disappointed that the hosts let him slide.
David Lewayne Porter
That is not the only thing(s) I have heard him say.
When he preaches the Word he is awesome (most of the time).
But on social issues he seems to overlook that the church and believers were told to handle the programs/ministry to them, not and never the government.
Bigger, larger government is not the answer.

yawn wishful thinking way too late for endorsement when the outcome is more than certain NOW Hate to pull this issue toward theology where it belongs but what does this mean for our Pentecostal world view and understanding of God?
1) Do we have a spirit filled minister making the wrong political / moral choice?
2) Do we have a church that is conformed to the world instead of being transformed after the image of Christ?
3) Do we have a kingdom-now theology wanting to bring the era of kingdom of heaven which but not necessarily with the Kingdom of God but a kingdom of men?
4) Do we have church and state amalgamation instead of church and state separation
5) And do we have a church that serves Caesar through acknowledging Caesar’s moral failure but speaking and living against the moral failure of sin within society as in the case with Trump?
David Lewayne Porter
So much for my thoughts on one of them

but 3 of them combined? – who would have thought right?
