cwnewz.com - On Sunday, Megachurch pastor T.D. Jakes told his congregation that he would provide "help, support and restorative grace" to his stepson, who was accused of exposing himself to two undercover detectives last month.
On January 3, Jermaine Jakes, 29, was accused, by police, of exposing himself in a public park near the Dallas megachurch that his stepfather leads. He was charged with a misdemeanor count of indecent exposure.
He faces up to six months in jail and a $2,000 fine if convicted. Faith Johnson, his attorney, did not immediately return a phone message left at her office Sunday afternoon.
On Sunday, the pastor read a statement to his congregation, saying parents of children who don't live up to ideals do not "diminish our love for them as recompense for our disapproval."
Christian Web News - Jesus has a way of getting right to the point, doesn't He? There was certainly no mincing of words, He came right out and said, "why are you fearful?" and then went on to say, "O you of little faith." You don't have to read between the lines to see what He was saying, they had little faith.
Christian Web News - Galatians 3:13-14.
