Jezebel's Finest Hour Part 2 - Effiminate Nation

The Jezebel spirit is a strong spirit when operating through a woman. You have seen the examples of Juanita Bynum and Paula White, all poised to dilute the gospel of peace and wreak havoc upon the body of Christ. This spirit tears up churches, emasculates and seduces men of god into webs of deceit and sexual bondage. I'm sure you have noticed how these women confessed of their early life molestations and rapes, and entered the scene looking modest and submissive. They all seemed to start out humble and spiritual. But then, once the money poured in and their influence grew, they went for the gold. Makeup galore, face lifts, body toning and plastic surgery. Getting fit and trim enough to leave their husbands only to begin showing off their new (offering and tithe purchased) bodies, showing the world their independent sexiness. The modest look no longer was necessary because thousands of women were hooked. Now they could weave their web of deceit even thicker by moving from God's girls to worldly women.

But what happens when the Jezebel spirit occupies a man? What happens when this seducing spirit entices men through a man? I know that sounds crazy, but we have this happening right now before our eyes. Yes, Bishop TD Jakes is the dawning of a new era of men that possess a seducing spirit meant to entice men of God into a web of deceit and sexual submission. How, you may ask? Well, unless you are from Mars you had to have picked up on a serious "effeminate friendly" spirit on this man. And unless you just flew in from Pluto, you know that he has most black preachers and pastors that wanna be something in his world submitting to his money and power. He has single handedly turned the act of preaching into the art of pimping. Preaching damnable heresies and false doctrine, while bumping elbows with the Luciferian elite and Hollywood's iconic celebrity stars.

Now, preachers are seeking what Jakes has. They want the money, the fame, the access to the stars, the television, the movies, the parties and elite celebrations. They want access to Oprah and Dr. Phil. They want mega churches and super conferences. They want secular and sacred mixtures to draw the masses and water down the message. They want a television audience without even drawing their own communities to their churches. They have been seduced, but the bitter end is coming early for many of them. They are falling like flies. They are getting caught with their pants down literally! They are being set up to fall and the Devil is laughing while he preserves his "queen" and keeps her spirit safe in the body of a cunning leader. While his family is tormented by internet rumors, while his spiritual children are tormented by divorce and immoral exposures, and while his church congregation is plagued with homosexual and lesbian spirits, he continues to lift himself up and use every avenue possible for a financial exchange. Even TD Jakes bibles studies in his churches are costly. Everything is for sale and nothing is free. Charging upwards of 50,000 dollars to come to your event and then charging admission at the door as well as several offerings tells us that this is a money thing. But even further investigations tells us of a spirit that lies deep within. A sexually seducing spirit that comes to seduce men into allegiances with him for gain and earthly glory.

Shouldn't a bishop be an example of a Godly leader to the church and the world? Then why is the very world that TD Jakes is suppose to be winning, outing him all over the internet for having an earring removed from his own pictures after he wore it at his daughters wedding? Here are the before and after pictures from his blog:




Yes, the world is wondering why his sons are wearing dreads and earrings and his daughter is sporting a tattoo on her back? You see, even the secular media feels that a Bishop should be a role model and have a family that reflects his teaching and morality. From Media Takeout to the Hick Town Press, the secular online media is eating this up and exposing these things at random. But at least we can give the world credit for believing in the bible's definition of a Bishop more than most modern day church folks..

According to scripture a Bishop should have his children under all gravity of his words and he himself should be blameless right? Well, an earring wearing bishop that is close friends with a drag queen doesn't sound like a blame free situation! What kind of straight man hangs around drag queens? Tyler Perry is a drag queen just like Rue Paul. There is no difference. They both wear women's clothes and entertain as women. That is the definition of a drag queen. What is a bishop doing being very close friends with a man that cross dresses?

Now, if you are not pentecostal or do not believe in holiness or hell, then this article might upset you or even cause you to see this as touching God's anointed. But you that believe holiness is a way of living and that God is not pleased with the mixture of the world and the church will understand why this blog is necessary. It's about time someone said what the Holy people of God need to hear! That's the way I feel. I am just a man of God expressing his true love for holiness and righteousness. Sure, no one is perfect and we all have sinned. Sure some preachers have difficulty with their children and many have made errors in judgment. But I'm not talking about those things. I'm talking about a man who is high and lifted up as the example for the modern day black Bishop! The man that has defended piercing his ears and mixing with the world. The man that has encouraged pastors to seek money, fame, and power at the expense of Holiness and God's way! The man that has made it okay to deny the savior for a greater audience. The man that has captivated many former holiness believers and turned them into carnal crusaders!

Okay, now for the history of the earring on a male. In the bible days, it was a symbol of slavery. Slaves were tagged on their ears for identification and ownership. Later, in the Egyptian culture, the mark of 2 earrings or multiple piercings on a male represented bi-sexuality and whoreish behavior. And all the great kings and leaders of Godless civilizations that were lascivious in behavior wore them as this symbol. In the early 70's pimps started wearing 1 earring in the black community as a symbol of slavery to sex. It meant that you were a player and enjoyed multiple sex partners. It was called Macho from the term Machismo which means excessive male or extreme male. This is what the single earring meant and still means. 2 earrings on a man was, and in most cases still is, a symbol of bi-sexuality. And now, since our young black boys are emasculated and becoming very effeminate because of the lack of fathers in the home, the 2 earrings are taking their age old meaning once again. How dare a pentecostal Bishop wear a symbol of macho or "slave to sex"? He is the model and now the weak pastors that have embraced his beliefs will begin to wear these things. God forbid! Don't forget the spirit of these things are still following these ritualistic acts of defiance. Did we forget about the spirit realm?

As if the black race needs another bad role model. And his sons and now son in law wear 2 earrings?? Lord help us! But Jakes can get away with this. He has gotten away with false teachings before and all the folks that left their pastors that they could touch for a man they will never meet have bought into this. He can teach whatever and they will listen!

For example, He has accused Naomi and Ruth in book of Esther of having a relationship that "bordered lesbianism". He has said it's "understandable" for a man to have affections for other men because when God made man, women was inside of him?" He has promoted every homosexual gospel singer in the industry and has even presented a lifetime achievement award to Bobby Jones?

Every since the very first Megafest conference, I have been warning the body of Christ of where this was going. Any man that will invite false god worshipers like India Arie or Will Smith to take the stage at a pentecostal type conference is not God lead. Let's not even mention what went on in the men's restrooms and the alley ways of Hot-lanta, the mecca for homosexual church goers! Let's call it what it is people. No more games. No more closed eyes. No more foolishness. Jakes has lead an effeminate movement and cause sexually confused men to be labeled "hemotional" rather than homosexual! Through basic semantics, he has turned the men into the weaker vessel and made the women the "leading ladies". He preaches to women in 3rd person using the words "we" and "us" when speaking of women in distress or women with purpose. And yet pastors have sent their members to his conferences with their blessing and they have campaigned to be on his platform no matter what it costs them. He is looked upon by the church as an icon, but looked upon by the world as a money making worldly partner. Jakes has also began denying that Christ is the ONLY way to Heaven by stating that the “Other sheep that are not of this fold” are other religions or beliefs and saying that he cannot rule out an inclusive rapture of the saints of God, leaving it open for others that may not believe in Jesus?

His exact quote to a Muslim's question as to whether only Christians go to Heaven:

"When it comes to Heaven, I try to leave that up to God. I certainly believe that Christianity is right, but when it comes down to the final test--who goes and who doesn't go--Jesus said, Other sheep have I who are not of this fold. Them also must I bring. I'll let Him identify who those sheep are and I stay out of the conversation."

Here is the audio clip of him refusing to take an opportunity to preach the gospel to the muslim that calls, but rather leaving it wide open for confusion. Click the video play button.



John 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold” [Jesus was speaking to the Jews, who had been frequently spoken of in Scripture as God’s flock. The other sheep were Gentiles. They are spoken of as scattered sheep, and not as flocks, because with them there was no unity. WHEN THE APOSTLE PAUL WROTE TO THE CHRISTIANS IN THE CITY OF EPHESUS HE GAVE WITNESS TO WHAT CHRIST HAD SAID BY STATING

“Eph. 2:16 And [He designed] to reconcile to God both [Jew and Gentile, united] in a single body by means of His cross, thereby killing the mutual enmity and bringing the feud to an end.

This is truly the finest hour for the spirit of Jezebel. This time she has promoted a man that allows her to seduce other men to follow his way and ignore God's law of holiness and righteousness. A man that can buy a 5000 seat building in Texas and fill it up the first Sunday with no evangelism whatsoever, has a spirit on him and it's not the spirit of God. Those people that filled that church were from other churches and drawn by the spirit of Jezebel and seduced into an emotional temple that is now plagued with homosexuals and perverts. As the television drew the crowds and the star struck people were lead in blindly, the spirit of Jezebel had an agenda all along. To make the gospel second to the show and to cause people to not hear but to feel. Now, what do we have people of God? A nation of carnal believers lead by the spirit of a women, working through a man.

I can now understand how Tyler Perry is one of his closest friends because they are one in the same. There is a woman's role that Jakes loves to play and that is the role of Jezebel.

1Cor. 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

1Tim. 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous; One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity; (For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

Jude 4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

James 4:4 Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

Titus 1:16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.

To blog or not to blog, that is the question!

As we plow through the internet looking, searching, researching, or just being nosey, we are able to find all kinds of information. Some of it good and some not so good, but the info is out there. Cyberspace is crazy place. There are online resources for just about anything you are looking for. Even in our Christian walk, there are many tools that are valuable. Folks have done years and years of research and posted it up free of charge to equip the body of Christ and help us in our daily walk. We at EX Ministries have done the same, by offering full web access to most of our materials free of charge and giving you blogs and daily words as well, without any kind of partnership involved. We are not knocking partnerships, but we do feel that some stuff ought to just be free.

But then, there is the dark side of the net. The perverted side that seeks to suck people into an underground movement that will ultimately destroy their faith in God and their faith in God's system. I'm not talking about porn sites or myspace. I'm not talking about adult chat rooms or webcams. I'm talking about church folks being exposed before the world by so called believers! I'm talking about folks outing Pastors, Ministers, Ministries, and Leaders by way of blogs, emails, and gossipy attachments. It's gotten to the point where lay people are many times rushing to their email every morning to see what preacher got caught with his pants down, or what Gospel artist is gay, or whatever. Now, I know there are folks reading this and saying, "how can G. Craige Lewis say this and he is always outing folks!" Well, anyone that says that, has not read what I have written nor watched the videos that I have produced. They have just "heard" about them after folks have put their own spin on it. If you know EX Ministries and what I preach, you know that I do call names and mention things people do, but only after they have exposed it to the public. Only after it's in the news, on tv, or something they put out for the world to see. But we do not out folks personal lifestyles and issues on our platform because God forbids that.

You see, God never intended for his people to become celebrities and seek after fame. There is a price to pay for fame and most famous church folks are finding out the hard way that the price is expensive . When you are a celebrity, your career, fame, money, and the like are not controlled by God, but by public opinion. When the public loves you, you are rich, but when they have finished enjoying you or finished with you period, you are poor. This is why so many of our prominent television church leaders and entertainers are on drugs, have sexual addictions, alternative lifestyles, etc., because they cannot deal with the fact that one day, they may no longer be famous and may resort to coming up with ways to stay in the public's view. Jesus avoided this by telling people to not lift him up or glorify him in the flesh, but rather keep quiet about the things he was doing that they deemed great. (Luke 8:56) Jesus never considered his workings as great, but rather said he was only mimicking what God was doing in heaven. (Luke 18:19) This was to avoid fame and the consequences of being steered by public opinion.

Nowadays, you can log on to google and type in a name and get all kinds of info, gossip, lies, slander, and even hard core truth without responsibility. Who got caught with who, who is sleeping with who, who is doing this and that. Could be true, could be a lie, but whichever it is, it is a shame before God for this kind of information to be given without responsibility or the clergy actually dealing with it first. Let me explain.

God has a plan for his prophets, and ministers exposure if they fall into sin. You see, God has men set up in a 5 fold ministry to hold each leader accountable for his actions. Men that are of the cloth so to speak, are apart of God's system of checks and balances. But the reason all these things are happening now is because men have surrounded themselves with evil men that will not hold them accountable. They are super apostles and untouchable by the clergy. Men that have become bigger than life cannot be subject to any authority because they have chosen to put men around them that covet their money and power. And by keeping each other's immoral indiscretions between each other silent, they each have something on the other and can hold it against the other if they decide to tell on them. This is mafia style behavior, but it is common among celebrity church leaders because they cannot afford to let anyone get close enough to see their wickedness without having some wickedness to throw around on them if they tell. So, there is no headship or accountability when the people you have surrounded yourself are wicked and hiding their own sin. They will serve you and do whatever you want because they want to escape judgment too! This is the dilemma and why the black church especially, is suffering from the lack of true revival, because men are blocking the move of God by being immoral and surrounding themselves with immoral men that won't judge their actions. In these cases, especially to those that have been hurt by these folks, you should just sit back and turn the hour glass over. In a matter of time God is gonna get them for you and you don't have to take action outside of God's system to do it. I"m not saying you shouldn't go to someone about being hurt by clergy (you should definitely go to leadership), but if they don't do anything, the web is not the place for it. When they won't hear the church, the secular media is waiting to judge them!

God is allowing the very machine that made them famous to turn on them and expose them before the world. The very media many of them sold their souls to for fame has turned on them and is publishing their private garbage to out them. This is terrible for the body of Christ and our witness to the world. By the world probing our leaderships spending habits, sexual appetites, and lack of integrity, they are finding no differences in our leaders and their political leaders. This is silencing the voice of the true God to the world and causing them to seek after other gods and other religion's leaders because the Christians leaders are falling. This is the spirit of antichrist at its best; Make them all rich and famous, lift them up above everyone, attach countless ministries to them and let them be their "coverings," then snatch the cover off of them all!!! You bust out the leaders for being immoral and the churches under them die because their pastors should have seen this coming and because of their lack of leadership, discernment, and protection, they lose their churches too. After all, who wants to be under a person that was chasing after an immoral platform? The church hemorrhages and almost dies and God's small remnant has to rebuild it. This is a dreadful day people of God, but this is our present day reality.

The bible deals with things differently and rumors, gossip, slander, and the like should be dealt with inside the body of Christ, and never exposed to the world. The bible shows us how to deal with these things in a manner where the church stays responsible and the world keeps out of it so they will not be dismayed or lose their faith in the power and authority of God's people. But these bigger than the church leaders have erased the lines that separated the church from the world and now the world knows all our business! Paul, in the bible dealt with things this way to keep the church intact and the world at bay:

When there was a rumor going around in 1 Corinthians 5, Paul said he judged it for the church. He told the members of the church that he had "already" judged the common report, or rumor that was going around and he dealt with it from a leadership perspective. He told them, after he had judged the situation, to put the person out. He didn't pass it around the room and ask their opinions about it. They were already talking about it and it was made common in the church, so he dealt with it from a leadership standpoint. The word even tells us that if we find our brother in a sin, we should go to them and restore them, not spread it around. Sure we talk and confide in those that are in leadership or those that are our colleagues. But we don't spread it around the net or lend our websites and comment pages to it before the world. That is not God's way. We must stick to God's plan.

Now, when Peter got out of line in his doctrine and behavior as a leader, Paul rebuked him before everyone. Why? Because what he was doing was before everyone. He was bending the rules and twisting his doctrine to suit his desires and actions and everyone was privy to it. So, since it was going on in the public's view, he was rebuked openly in the public's view so that everyone could see he was in error and if anyone was deceived by it, they could be restored by knowing the truth about it. This is God's way of handling open rebuke. When people preach, teach, or allow certain things to go on publicly that are not lining up with scripture, then it should be made public by those that are chosen by God to deal with it. But when a person is caught up in a private issue or sin, they should be dealt with privately by those in leadership and if they refuse to hear and repent, then it should be made public according to the Word of God.

Don't let blogs, emails, chats, etc, deceive you. God is not please with the way things are looking for the church. We have so many folks falling right now, we don't have to assist it. God is bringing folks down and using the secular media that they crave to do it. You don't have to spread anything around but rather pray for these folks that they will hear the prophets that are calling on them to repent. If they refuse, they will pay the price of fame. You don't have to take a secret video around to expose them, you don't have to post their personal info on youtube or write a book against them, and you don't have to send it around via email. All we as the church have to do is sit back and watch the great falling away passover! If you don't have the blood of the Lamb covering your house, you will be affected by it. God is rooting out the darkness before his return and he wants us that are of him to behave according to scripture in the way we handle things. Let's stop the gossip via the web and start praying for mercy. You see, when these great pompous leaders fall, and they shall, it's not a victory for any of us in the household of faith, but only a fearful day of judgement for everyone. We should all be on our knees and faces before God lest we be exposed or found doing something that is not Godly. Pray for our church people. Every email you see, every blog you read, and every video clip you watch that is exposing the church, is a fierce blow to the Kingdom of God. And though leaders that are corrupt and refuse to repent should be punished and exposed, there is a biblical way to do it so the loss in the body is minimized.

Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.

1Timothy 5:19 Do not receive an accusation against an elder except on the basis of two or three witnesses. Those who continue in sin, rebuke in the presence of all, so that the rest also will be fearful of sinning.

Galatians 2:14 But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

1Timothy 1:20 Of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may learn not to blaspheme.

2 Timothy 4:14 Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil: the Lord reward him according to his works:

1Corinthians 5:1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife. ...............For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,

Proverbs 6:16 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, n heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.

Ephesians 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:

Hebrews 13:7 Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.

Ephesians 4:25 Therefore, laying aside falsehood, SPEAK TRUTH EACH ONE of you WITH HIS NEIGHBOR, for we are members of one another.

In His Name,
G. Craige Lewis
