Their pastor and the church failed this whole family. That’s why the Bible says not everyone should be a pastor, because you will be judged more harshly.James 3:1 Especially leading others astray or getting others to cover for someone’s sins. Which is what these leaders and pastors did.
I think it is the parents fault the parents still had other men in their home and the were in her home the parents should have known where their daughter was also she knew what she was doing at the age of 14 I believe they should chàrge the parents now she kept going back and they still was friends I don't believe the parents were good parents They should brought this out years a go that tells me some wrong here so l like Pastor Morris I think he is a great pastor he knows the Bible also look what you all have done to their Grand children look what thier children is doing to do them in school I have 4girls I watch them I Allow men in my house around I knew where they were all the time I have 10 G Daughter's & and 7 GG Daughters I believe the parents are to blame more so you-all waited 35 yrs to ruin Pastors life or maybe maybe you are after money I hope God can let you all sleep at night what you done to this man when you should been checking to see where your Daughter was in your own home the parents are just as gulity😅 friends
Job security Marlene. To them, it's all about $$$ because gold is their god, not the Lord Jesus Christ as the Apostle Paul said the last days church would have to deal with.......
During that time, that was the way Church was conducted. My father should also be held accountable, but the church tends to shame victims while protecting the perpetrators.
It was Olen Griffey, the Church Pastor, and the Elders of Shady Grove Church who convinced the family to keep it quiet and told them that the church would handle it. If anyone is to blame it’s Olen Griffey and those Elders.
@@KansasMiss-mf4bj Olen seems like total slime! I wonder what the statute of limitations was back then? It may have only been a couple years. Olen would know. They made Robert an elder at 29. Unheard of. Olen knew what a money maker he had. I imagine he was a corrupt state trooper as well. Should be investigated! 😠
Jesus said on her video that her parents did try to do something your parents did try to talk about it not that they wanted to keep it quiet this way they could have talked about it just what things I could have done my dad would have when is the next church after he did his sermon pulled him over to the side and just said this is what happened you need to fix it
@@andreaanderson-s9c Her dad told Robert not to preach again. Robert lied about this later, saying he did what Cindy's father said. But he didn't, he only stopped preaching to children.
Me too!! I don’t understand why they didn’t take action. My mother stood up for me when I told her that her cousin’s husband tried to kiss me. She handled it immediately!!
During that time, that was the way Church was conducted. My father should also be held accountable, but the church tends to shame victims while protecting the perpetrators.
“Accuser”? How about victim? The term “accuser” suggests this victim is being less than truthful, which is a troubling implication since she has absolutely no legal recourse at her disposal (her words in other videos).
I know how she feels...I am 68 but it was a family member. I forgave but carried the shame, guilt and low self esteem. I was not in church and neither was my family.
@@helenadeering4276 I hear you. Can mess a person up in deep ways. The shame is the pits. 65 now and realized how much it messed me up. I understand how she could not deal with it before. Proud of her for taking a stand.
She was victim shamed and blamed. Roberts wife even phoned her & accused her. Robert accused her of being promiscuous . Such suffereing & scarring of a young child.
If Robert Morris repented for this sin years ago and have not fallen back into this specific sin then why is his repentance not good enough for the Christian? The same God that forgave and continually forgives our sin is the same God who forgave RM. This lady Cindy, said in a previous interview that RM "will do it again." How does she know? She's not God. If we confess out sins God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, according to the Bible. Though I am sad about what happened to Cindy, I'm confused as a Christian, by her angle and intentions.
@@brendajones5989 I already know this. If God's word is final authority and He removes our sin then why are you and others continually gossiping and bringing this up? Move on with your lives, there's much work to be done.
@@cynthiameansRestating facts is not gossip. She was only 11 when he began the grooming process to have the entire family trust him. Premeditated! I personally care about justice for victims. Should a murderer get away with murder if caught years later? There is God's justice as well as man's. As citizens we can and should seek justice. God supports this. How do you know He isn't now orchestrating this as Cindy believes? Robert has never made restitution and lied for years. He knew the truth would permanently disqualify him. God is patient, and has given us free will. Robert had many opportunities to make amends to Cindy. Pride and greed, 2 deadly sins prevented him.
Great preaching. Jesus loves all of us, but hates our sin. Thank God Almighty, Jesus will forgives all of us if we repent. His love never fails. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ son of the Almighty Father and giver of the precious Holy Spirit.
Robert Morris is a name that will live in infamy not because he sinned years ago but because he deceived people about it for over 40 years and left the victim with horrible scars, refusing to help her financially when he could.
I personally heard him, during a sermon, watching by TV, and he flat out said that a wonderful family had allowed he, Debbie and their first born son, move in with them while he was a young struggling Pastor. He said he had an inappropriate sexual relationship with this man's daughter. He said he repented...to God, the gracious father who opened up his home to them and to his wife, Debbie. He was talking about God's forgiveness and mercy because he dealt with a spirit of lust. He did not say it was a 12 year old child. He did not say he repented to HER but he did say it took him several years to stop even thinking these immoral thoughts. He said he went to the elders before he spoke in the pulpit about it and got their approval. However he did say the SPIRIT OF JEZABEL could also operate in a MAN. HE, also bought up the story of King David and Bethsheba. He did not say the age of "the girl ", (the child). I, along with other viewers thought the girl was later in teens. He said he was 20 or 21 years old but I'm almost sure he said anoyher thing about this situation but refuse to say ANYTHING I DO NOT REMEMBER him saying POSITIVELY. As I stated, he was preaching on forgiveness by God. I feel so sorry for Cindy, Debbie and the children and families on both sides. I also had a really "odd" feeling several weeks ago when he spoke on the Fear of the Lord, stating that He learned not to Fear the Lord if he was living righteously and obediently and Walking with the LORD DAILY. Then he said, "Do you know what MY BIGGEST FEAR IS?? MY BIGGEST FEAR IS THAT DEBBIE will leave me!! ? I got the strangest feeling and looking back, perhaps it was the Holy Spirit. There was something when he said that, that made me feel strange ( and yes, suspicious. ) i have stated here ONLY WHAT I HEARD HIM SPEAK FROM THE PULPIT ON TV, WE ITH MY OWN EARS. I'M sure Debbie is undone by what is happening, but she KNEW HOW OLD THE GIRL WAS. SHE WAS LIVING THERE TOO. WERE things brewing several months ago to make Robert say his biggest FEAR was Debbie leaving him?? Can anyone get any insight from this and comment...DID YOU HEAR THESE 2 SERMONS? I KNOW IF YOU ATTEND GATEWAY on a weekly basis, you heard EXACTLY what I heard and WHAT is wrong with my discernment that I didnt pick up on more. I broke my back last year and since v then have been falling and fracturing my feet since then. Please help me to understand why I missed this. I can't wait to heal up and get back in church. Yes, our Pastors are sinner's too, but not millionaires leading huge churches and maybe smaller, intimate circles of prayer, praise and worship would be better for a time such as this. Thank you to anyone who might be able to help me a bit. BLESSINGS.🙏🙏🙏🙏💙🩵💙🩵💙🩵😢😢😊😊😊💞💕💞🤍🤍🤍
@davidcruz8057 Thank you for your kindness. I was very afraid but really felt I should share ONLY what I heard him say. I broke my back last year, had a failed titanium surgery and then fractured both feet and after watching many pastors because I couldn't physically go to church, chose him and watched faithfully for 2 years. I appreciate your prayer Brother.💔💔❤️❤️
Nevertheless, it's a criminal offence. In the OT, God's people were forgiven by sacrifices, yet sexual sin carried the death penalty as did some others.
As a Daddy of 3 daughters i commend you for your boldness and courage to come forth! I pray that you continue to help other people going through the same. God Bless you Cindy! I pray that Robert will genuinely repent and seek the Lord.
She’s here so people don’t remain clueless and help be part of the solution. You might go read up on Gateway church and how their leadership has been hiding molestation.
Because the very short in morals pastor of Gateway church, and his like-minded friends wouldn't practice what Jesus and the Bible preach. So it's now up to a woman to do the man's job. They let it happen and I don't think the Father will ever allow those lawbreakers and lovers of sin back into the church.
@@ca-fl5he....well I know where they are coming from. This is only a Gateway problem because of Morris. This was a Shady Grove elders and her dad who brokered this silence deal. Have you ever been 16 years old? Have you ever been 14 years old? I remember in my family home when my father's friend walked into our kitchen and was flirting with me and I was 16. It creeped me out ....that was 1986. I was the only one home and I had babysat his girls before. The only guys I had interest in were in my class. I was well aware of the inappropriate behavior he was displaying. We had 3 interim teachers at our school, fresh out of teacher's college. Two women and one guy (23) and some of the school girls were crushing on him badly. They would write smutty Harlequin letters about scenarios with him. I was 11 when my Grandfather tried to lay on me when I was sick and he had sent my brother and cousin to the arcade....and I freaked out with full strength and ran away. When someone says there is more to this, guess what?, they might know a little something from experience.
4.5 years of sexual abuse and her parents never suspected a thing. Me thinks there are more people culpable than just the creep Robert Morris. The parents are just as guilty as he is and yet she protects them. Why is no one questioning why they allowed him near their young daughter all those years and never questioned his obsession with her? This story is still missing pieces.
Exactly. In all my comments I've said this too---where in the world was cindys parents all those years that this went on??? Why did Cindy let him keep doing it---up to age 17 or so. That's not a child! I'm sure many are wondering these things too. As a Christian why didn't Cindy and her husband meet with Morris and his wife and confront him about what he did to her when she was younger and keep it between them--- and God--- instead of the whole world???? Just a thought.
If you extend the statute of limitations, it can destroy the lives of innocent people as well. That is a dangerous thing to do. Her parents dropped the ball 37 years ago.
I started dealing with what happened to me in my 50s. I lost my whole family, not one speaks to me. If I speak about the years of dealing with the aftermath and effects, the response from those who I thought would understand; they rejected it and said just an excuse. Not easy to stand alone with truth.
I am actually not. These individuals are part of a cult and idolize Robert. He has greatly influenced them. "Touch not the anointed" is a phrase often misused by those who lack a proper understanding of Biblical context.
Well said, Mr. Robertson. There has been much judgement and little forgiveness and discernment in this story. May BOTH Ms Clemensen and Mr. Morris find the healing and spiritual reconstruction they need. May God work all things together for good in this.
If you were Cindy or if she was your relative/friend, I’m sure your opinion would be different He “coasted” along for many years under the guise of an affair with a “young lady”. He may of repented for his 5 years of abuse against Cindy BUT what about the lying by omission for all these years???
Someone tell Pastor Robert Morris, that despite everything that is happening, am so grateful for his life and he preached Jesus and Jesus Crucified and am a changed being because of his preaching. His preaching has carried me through the toughest of times. May God carry you through the storm!!! I will be praying for you. My work is to Pray and leave God to Judge.
@@KarenMoore-p6r The Lord is shaking all the churches before His coming, as He said He would. As believers we are called to judge our brothers and sisters. We're allowed to judge their actions and hold them accountable for their actions and then to restore them spiritually. To do anything less is not in their best interest. Before restoration they must make a full and honest confession and make restitution.
I think this is very sad. Who are you to judge if he's repented?? I am a victim of sexual abuse. The fact that your ruining this man's life many, many years later screams unforgiveness to me. With the same measure every man judges he will so be judged. Only the Lord knows a heart. All Christians jumping on board with the finger pointing should think of their past. I know mines not pretty. Thank you Lord the only judge I will face is you. You are righteous.
So true . And she calls herself a christian. She should forget it and let god handle it. And you'll ride.He is running in a family life. I was. Molested my whole life almost when I was a child. Even by my own father. I forgive and forgot I love my dad and I have forgiven him with all my heart and soul. And never had one day of cancelling and i've been fine my whole life. Never on drugs alcohol no that stuff.
@@monastrandburgyou’re lying! No way what you’re saying is true. No way. And IF you’re telling the truth a little, everyone’s experience is different!!! Your ignorance is shocking.
What if he’s doing this currently? Like who’s to say he’s not currently doing this to a girl in his church now. That’s the number one reason why she needs to come forward. It would’ve been better if she came forward earlier or if the adults in her life did something, but she could prevent it from happening to another little girl. So saying she needs to forget is insane.
Of course money, notarity, AND popularity goes a long way too!!!! Oh did we mention we get to see him shamed now. Way to go Cindy! Revenge is all that mattered to you. Enjoy your well earned 15 mins of fame!
He told them that he had done bad things after he married debbie. He had told it from the pulpit. This is not the unforgivable sin. I too was molested. I know what that feels like but someone that has repented and asked for forgiveness it should be over. This is just another stab from the enemy to knock down the man of God. I do not hold hate or revenge for the men that molested me. Especially not 40 years later. Nothing to be gained here but popularity and money for her story
@@SandraLira-gq8ojWow. Where is your compassion. Also, how do you know he didn't do this to other children who may also need to come forward and heal. What a sad, callous comment.
There was a Gateway Dallas pastor who physically abused a volunteer he was seeing. The pastors covered it up and then removed her. She had to go to the police and he plead out this year. This is still being covered up.
I made a comment earlier and a person called Cross-stitch commented and I did comment back however I do not see it. Let me explain what I said and why and I still stand by my previous come as to why this lady is just now bringing this up at her age. And before you start jumping the gun on my reasoning you should at least hear me out. I've grown up in church just like her. I suffered from sexual abuse since the same age. Not the same circumstances with it being church but it was definitely by a professing Christian. I was also married 15 yrs to a man that verbally, physically, mentally and psychologically abused me. I'm 58 yo now and I am an overcomer. That's not bragging that's praising God for His kindness, mercy and grace. He gave me early on the ability to forgive others and I am grateful for this. Being in the church it simply doesn't equate in my head, heart, soul or discernment how after all this time... And a child of God... Why forgiveness is not a part of this lady's walk? I didn't say forgetfulness. That's a very hard point to get to. Whether Robert Morris repented to her or the way that she deems appropriate or not. That's on him. Although I think he should. You can't live your life waiting for apologies or repentance or people to get fired for you to get on with your life. I went to therapy as well. It takes years for some people. And yes, even up to 54, as I have been schooled by someone. You would think the community of faith would have helped her. IMO. Did her parents or didn't they basically agree to let it go? That's when the police should have been involved. That's when the church couldn't have swept it under the rug. That's when a bitter yet healing explosion could have begun. EVERYONE swept it under the rug. Families of faith what have you done?!?! What everyone at that time was doing!!! Fast forward to COVID... I remember when we back at church Robert Morris had a special Repentance show. It was overwhelming positive and highly commendable by a huge audience and so many people repenting. A lot of popular people were there. No one else but God knows whether he repented or not. It would have been the most oppurtune time. At this time bringing this up is only going to bring heartache to All the families involved. If I didn't feel like even more suffering wouldn't come upon her I wouldn't be praying for her now. Every once in a while we should take stock of ourselves and with kindness but firmness remove anything that is destructive, unproductive, and not benefitting to us. Prayfully doing so. Sweeping that all away and trusting God with your life to rule and reign in it. Otherwise I cannot help but hope and pray for her a brighter future but feel remorseful for her lost years and the destruction that has lied and will continue in her wake. Peace and Blessings to All 🙏🙏🙏
John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” Jesus is saying "I AM the truth" It's never too late for the truth to come out. Robert, his wife and the church buried it for many years. Cindy has tried for years to bring the truth to the light. The Bible speaks of the darkness coming to the light in many scriptures. Who are any one of us to block that?
@@davidcruz8057 Thank you, David. Even though I have the unpopular opinion it is steadfast. We must speak out when the heinous of any crimes happen and hopefully then they may be corrected. I know myself for not speaking to anyone at all about my husband until he actually held a gun on me outside of our house. But everyone already knew and of course our daughter witnessed it all. Had I stopped it when it began she wouldn't have suffered growing up and is just now getting better. So I know this well. But let the others tear into me all they want because with all I went through I see way more than sympathy. May the God of All Glory overrun you with His glorious Joy, Peace and Blessings all the days of your life and that of your family. In the Mighty the Powerful and the Holy name of Jesus Amen 🙏🙏🙏
The world does not like the truth, remember when the Lord invited that jerk that he was competing when they were supposed to be friends. Jealousy needs to be cured. The win lose scene is. What if there was a game people vs predator? who would win. Ha ha Ha?
@@annanderson1470 What if the person spoke out repeatedly but no one did anything? The family forgave but their was a condition that Robert would leave the ministry. This was the arrangement in lieu of his being charged and jailed. They tried for years to enforce the agreement that was made. Cindy is adamant her father and the family did not bless him in a return to ministry. Just because it took time to become public, doesn't mean nothing was happening during all this time. It's such a slap to her that people ask "why didn't she speak up sooner?"
Who are you to shame on anyone?! Will you say shame on Moses, shame on King David, Shame on Rahab too and others who came before and yet committed acts (adultery, murder and prostitution)? Yet, the Lord God used them. Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man is [a]overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.
@@cynthiameans YOU show yourself to be ignorant of The Word by offering these who have gone on before us as examples! EVERY SINGLE 1 OF THEM SHOWED TRUE REPENTANCE AND SORROW....your beloved Apostate man showed absolutely none of that and disrespected Our Holy Mighty God by staying in the Pulpit.
He was allowed to stay because it is Robert Morris’ church. He founded it and grew it. Plus, the Elders have an alliance to him. Not to mention that he has lied about this event for 35 years.
Oh! Thank you so much. I cannot express how much it means to hear these words in a broadcast like this. Growing up with a strong faith in God (and love to my parents) while incest happening also. It is like a shadow of a hope I never even dared to dream comming true. Thank you.
This hurts so much. God forgives. Thank you so much Gordon for the Ezekiel verses. I will walk in a new reverence for my salvation because of your word on this heartbreaking matter.
Not only did you report the news story, but you told us what to do with it. Well done Gordon! Robert Morris will only find peace when he humbles himself and repents.
As a SA victim, it was hard but i forgave. I was 12.5 years old when raped. It's crazy because I worked in the hospital and the person that did this to me was dying of liver cancer. God told me that I had to release and forgive him. God placed him in the same hospital on the same floor I worked. I never told anyone because truly ashamed and it did cause me guilt. So I walked in the room and told him that I forgave him for what he did. God placed me in that situation to forgive that man day and to also pray for him. Some of us say we forgive as Christians but can be the biggest stone throwers I've ever seen, sad.
I can’t even continue watching this. I know I don’t know a lot, but there’s something that does not feel right! He should have gone to jail back then… the parents should have called the police, as others have said. She just said “For such a time as this…this is God’s timing…”. God will expose sin in the camp. I’m just not sure about her verbiage. I’m just going to pray. God help us all. WHY DID SHE WAIT UNTIL NOW?!! WHY?
I too went through someone tried to rape me and at first I never told anyone because I felt people would say it was my fault. Remember I'm now 65 back then men were the dominant figures. But I now know I have a voice and I share my story to help other women . So please remember that !
King David would've been stripped from his throne if this un biblical understanding this poor woman has been duped. Thinking of what happens to someone who sins when they're 20 years old and now is 60 or 80 or whatever pastor Morris is ? we need to really use discernment that God has given us in these end times. Unbelievers are just laughing and waiting for this kind of garbage on both sides.
King David was not a priest or pastor. God did not allow him to build the temple, and he felt the repercussions in his family for years. God forgives but the Bible is clear that the shepherds who speak in God's name are judged by a stricter measure.
I'm a believer. I'm also a believer in justice. Non-believers won't be interested in a church or a God that is so unjust. Cindy has forgiven and trusts in God. She has never received restoration from Robert. They only concerned themselves with restoration of the perpetrator all those years ago.
It takes years of counseling, a close walk with Jesus, but know that He alone can heal the psyche, emotions, heal the broken heart and crushed spirit. Releasing the anger, bitterness, resentment, and any unforgiveness. I know, I am a sexual abuse survivor. And, sometimes deliverance is needed as well. Each situation is different. And, it's so true --- both sexes can be sexually abused. I am thankful that CBN is covering this ---- and actually facing it. It's important to speak truth because when sexual abuse is involved, there's a deep level of deception. She's correct about Robert Morris not speaking truth. It's the same with my abusers. They never said they were sorry. But, I don't have to wait for that. I can be healed and set free without them ever being able to admit the harm they have done.
Always remember we all sin...you have to pray for redemption...and sin no more...Only God us Perfect...only God Can Save you ...go to him Be Washed in the Blood of the Lamb....
All true. All sin. If you confess and repent God will forgive you. Do you think Pastor Morris confessed, truly? He lied about the sin for over 40 years, misleading people very close to him. That is not true confession and repentance. Also, although sin can be forgiven, it doesn't meant that one who sins as a pastor should remain as a pastor.
ROBERT ask Cindy herself for forgiveness. You apologized to her parents I read. And give her the recompense she wants. God himself can't change what happened over 40 yrs. Ago. He can forgive and Bring good out of this. Blessed be the Lord.🙏✝️
"And does what is lawful and right". Robert has yet to make any restitution to Cindy. None of his dubious "restoration" included her! She wasn't asking much when she wanted her ongoing therapy paid for. In arrogance, he and his wife not only denied her but once again threatened her with prosecution. Reestablishing his control over her. He has yet to "man up" by at least making good on the financial damage he caused her. This loose end continues to tie them together and must be resolved to advance the healing of them both.
Who in their right mind would want money from their abuser? I would want your prosecution, not your money. That's fishy to me. If therapy isn't working what can money do in its place? This is the USA. Insurance will pay for it. I'm not buying that she needed money to pay for ongoing therapy.
@@ladiuneeq9789 He profited from her story. He told it several times from the pulpit saying it was a young lady. Leaving out that she was a twelve year old girl. The statute of limitations ran out for criminal convictions. There’s also the fact many abusers are repeat abusers and more women will come forward now they see someone else has. Actions have consequences.
So bad she had to go through all this almost alone. Too bad the parents and leadership didn't fully take up the matter and work out Justice, Healing & Forgiveness. Too too bad that it has to come out at this time meaning she hasn't fully healed and now the Church & God's Name she was trying to PROTECT is marred badly. The Testimony & the People Robert has impacted now is greatly impacted in the negative... I wish as the BODY OF JESUS CHRIST we find a way of Confronting our issues in Time & Bible way that both the victim & offender who share the SAME FATHER - GOD can find Wholeness, Mercy & Healing! SHALOM
Sad no one did anything and allowed him back. I definitely believe in forgiveness but he was secretly doing this while in ministry so I can’t imagine why he did this. Your married you have a leadership role and why put yourself in this kind of situation and why hurt your friends child? He definitely needed to step out of ministry and this was an immediate dismissal doing that. It’s basically rape to.
This is just so sad. The problem with concealing these is, it’s difficult for such leaders to call each other out. God is still on the throne. He knew this will come out, He knows how to deal with it. Cindy, you’re in our prayers.
@@bernhardbauer5301 I usually see 'alleged' abuse, etc. They have to say that because he hasn't been tried and convicted. Just legalities. He pretty much admitted it though because of his emails. And that he resigned.
If she has been telling people about this her whole adult life, why is it being made a public ordeal now? Why do people wait until someone is wealthy to sue? She should have done this long before now, especially if she has been telling people for many years.
@@punkinpie1196 She contacted Robert in 2005, almost 20 years ago, and asked if he would reimburse her for the cost of therapy she had paid for. She would have been 34 years old at that point. She didn’t wait until he was wealthy. He has not paid her a single dime for all her pain and suffering. And she told many in Christian Leadership over the years and no one wanted to hear it or act on it. How sad is that. Praise God she has come forth at this time! She is such an inspiration to so many that have been molested by preachers they and their family trusted. But I sincerely hope she sues him for millions!! Do you know that he molested her 100x! Are you sure you are a Christian, because with your judgement of her, you could have fooled me.
The word “occult” means to “coverup” or”conceal” When this happens in the church ,it’s straight up witchcraft. Jesus Never tells us to handle sin this way…..bring it into the light. Praying for real redemption and restoration for all those involved 🙏❤️🩹🕊️
@@MicheleJustice-w9s A pastor must maintain a spotless reputation and uphold the highest moral standards. It is crucial to understand that pedophilia is not a behavior that can simply be switched off.
Respectfully. Listen carefully she has told people over 35 years what has happened and went to churches where Robert served or preached. She’s not taking Mr Morris to court. She knows it’s been a long time. This will help young tweens and hopefully even smaller children will be able to tell. And unfortunately for parents are to talk to children in the way they understand what inappropriate touching is wrong.
@@jenniewebb374 I agree with you because RM is NOW famous and is rich, she is after blood and money no doubt. Although, RM should pay her restitution pain, suffering, and for her counseling expenses. This should have been settled very shortly after the incidents happened. Now, this is making her look greedy. If this does help other victims and survivors, then it will be a good thing to happen.
1 Timothy 3:2-5 Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money. According to God's word THIS man has no RIGHT TO PASTOR A CHURCH!
In the 1980's most churches didn't have protocols set up for pastors to know how to handle these situations. It wasn't until 1990 when we began to pastor in another denomination that we were given protocols. We weren't to deal with it inhouse, but immediately call the authorities. We also were to have anyone involved in ministry...pastors, Sunday scool teachers, nursery workers given a background check. Our first denomination was based in the midwest where they weren't dealing with SA as much, but our 2nd denomination was centered in CA where they were, I think❤❤❤
We help other people by leading them to Christ, not to the judicial system. I was molested as a teen somebody led me to Christ and that helped me to say no more to that perpetrator it set me free. And eventually, I could forgive that person and now I truly was set free and that freed them to repent also, I didn't have to go to a judicial system thank God and that's not biblical anyways, so I'm praying for this woman that she will not lead people to justice but lead people to Jesus.
I do feel that Pastor Morris has asked God for forgiveness, but he is now suffering the consequences of his actions. No one will escape the consequences of their action, whether good or bad. God is able to forgive and restore. His grace is sufficient.
Joseph was a godly man because he wanted to divorce Mary quietly when he thought she had committed adultery. It is not godly to shame and expose people because we all have a multitude of sins.
Mary was much younger than Joseph, and Joseph was not a pastor who sinned for four and a half years and lied and evaded punishment for the rest of his life. Robert did not confess his full sin to the church, he is the primary cause of all this. Cindy is handling it the best she can. Robert has gotten far far less than he deserves.
Sorry, I am a believer, but you are using examples that don’t match. Comparing getting pregnant in a relationship to getting raped or abused is a slap to the victims.
@azpersonal no the point is not exposing people to open shame is ,"godly" the victim wanting to ruined a man for what he did 40 years ago is not a good thing and it's none of our business. If she wanted to report it years ago she could have and should have. It is not godly to use social media to try people in the court of public opinion. What did Jesus wo with the woman caught in adultery????????
@lizh1988 have you ever lied hated someone, looked with lust, envied been greedy? Gossiped or slandered? We all deserve he'll therefore stop your mouth and judging. Just like the woman caught in adultery " let he among you who is without sin cast the first stone"
@@TedMyrrh I never did any of that as a pastor and teacher of religion. If I did I truly repented if it. Not like this guy who just kept doing it and then lied about it.
If Morris had really repented, he would have been willing g to come out of hiding his sin and calling it something less, and go through the consequences. He was out of ministry a short time and Resumed ministr y as he continued his molesting of Cindy. Real repentance is TELLING THE TRUTH, taking the consequences, and change. He lied. He should stand up and take it like a man instead of hiding behind a law firm who tries to spin the truth and blame Cindy for FLIRTING with him. No normal person construes a child flirting with them as a sexual overture. It’s nauseating that he’s trying to blame it on her.
If there isn't room at the foot of the cross for victims and predators alike, is it the Gospel we are truly practicing? I have followed Morris' ministry for years. He was not as forthright about his past as he should have been, but if this event had happened in Jesus day, would Saul/Paul have been able to minister as he did? Would we have allowed his writings to be part of the New Testament? Isn't the root of the Gospel that we can be raised to newness of life? This is indeed a weighty issue and it is only right, to me, that it is again being brought up in the church, but I feel that Morris' failings have more to do with the aftermath of the sexual sin and how he didn't deal as honestly as he should have with the confession part of his transgression than the sexual sin itself. I could be wrong, but if he was truly able to pull himself out of that pit, which other ministers in the faith only move on to new ground, then don't we owe him the grace God would give him? The grace that we all want in life? I know for some it seems that line of defense is making me a pedophile supporter, but I was involved in a similar incident when I was around the same age as Cindy Clemishire. It was anything, but easy to deal with and my parents failed me, too, IMO. I just always wanted for the man involved to have a real moment of repentance and change and hopefully come to me to ask forgiveness. That never happened and he died without my ever knowing if he ever felt sorry for what he did. Also, to me, it seems that Robert Morris was only 20 years old at the time. That is hardly an adult. IMO. Should he have known better? Absolutely. And there is no excuse for sin and this type of sin is abhorrent, but I still think that we are failing to truly look justly at both sides of this issue. The example was used of King David, who was a whole lot older when he fell, but he didn't lose his position as king. So is this really the best example?
@@Tina-ez5pg Incorrect. Robert refers to his victim as a young lady, yet he lacks the respect to apologize in person. He lied to dodge the pedophile thing. It didn't work.
Wonderful video. King Manasseh, shed so much blood, that he was blamed for turning Israel against the Lord. God chastised him & in his distress, his prayer moved the heart of God, so much so , that God returned Him to Israel , AND TO HIS KINGDOM , & Manasseh taught the people to repent. Why didnt this ladies parent, or friends call the police in all those years from her youth?
Do you all understand that they did not have sexual intercourse? She had heavy petting with him. YES, its unexcusable given the ages. But again after seeing her interview with Allen Paar, things came out that have to question this woman's accountability. What is it that she wants, you must ask yourself that. And I will not answer anymore replies. This in itself should have not directed the course of her life. We should all at some point take stock of our lives and with kindness but firmness remove all that is unproductive, unhelpful and not worthy. Sweeping it all away and lifting it up to our Father. Letting Him resign and reign in you. Leaving nothing behind. He is who washes us clean and births forgiveness in us. True forgiveness in us not wanting nothing from no man other than to live in peace and harmony in their own lives. This is my third comment so I will not be responding to anymore that try to get me to understand anything other than what I already do. If she had kept this to herself all these years it would be another story. But she didn't. And she did ask for 2 million at one time from him. She admitted it. She said she was throwing a number out there because of all the therapy she had and will need. Let me remind you that it's called righteous judgement in the bible. And not "" feelings judgement " . Ask God, who answers His children.. which judgement your's is falling under. He is faithful and will show you. Peace and Blessings 🙏🙏🙏
Acts 15 28 “For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay no greater burden on you than these few requirements: 29 You must abstain from eating food offered to idols, from consuming blood or the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. If you do this, you will do well. Farewell.” -- Ony four laws and Morris could not abstain from sexual immorality, and he could not even confess and repent over such a long time.
Very sad , Proverbs 19:11 this was 35 years ago! Terrible that she would even bring it out ( he was 20 years old at the time!) Seems malicious and selfish doesn’t set well in my spirit . Proverbs 17:9 He who conceals a transgression seeks love!!!
Luke8:17 “For all that is in-secret, will eventually be brought out into the open, and everything that is concealed , will be brought to the light, and made known to all” Proverbs 28:13 whoever conceals, his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy. It is so confusing to me why you Christians are so venomous with your mouth and your words towards this victim, who was a child when it happened . Where is your anger towards Pastor Morris ? who, still to this day ,cannot confess with his mouth that he molested a CHILD for 4 yrs . While a pastor ,while married,with a small child. Where is your hostility towards that foulness! Even prisoners have a moral compass against men like that ,it’s a shame when believers don’t seem to🤯
Seems she has forgiven him and gotten on with her life, including an important new mission to help protect children across the country from having to go through what she experienced!
That's not what the Bible says. It says to go to your brother and ask forgiveness first. He did not repent. True repentance leads to reconciliation, which Robert and Cindy do not have. "If your brother sins against you, go and confront him privately. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, regard him as you would a pagan or a tax collector." Matthew 18:15-17 “Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother or sister has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to them; then come and offer your gift." Matthew 5:23-24
Her parents failed her by not filing charges 35 years ago.
Their pastor and the church failed this whole family.
That’s why the Bible says not everyone should be a pastor,
because you will be judged more harshly.James 3:1
Especially leading others astray or getting others to cover for someone’s sins.
Which is what these leaders and pastors did.
This statement is so true!
Yes, WHERE WERE HER PARENTS while this was going on - and in their home??
I think it is the parents fault the parents still had other men in their home and the were in her home the parents should have known where their daughter was also she knew what she was doing at the age of 14 I believe they should chàrge the parents now she kept going back and they still was friends I don't believe the parents were good parents They should brought this out years a go that tells me some wrong here so l like Pastor Morris I think he is a great pastor he knows the Bible also look what you all have done to their Grand children look what thier children is doing to do them in school I have 4girls I watch them I Allow men in my house around I knew where they were all the time I have 10 G Daughter's &
and 7 GG Daughters I believe the parents are to blame more so you-all waited 35 yrs to ruin Pastors life or maybe maybe you are after money I hope God can let you all sleep at night what you done to this man when you should been checking to see where your Daughter was in your own home the parents are just as gulity😅
friends
Stop!! Stop blaming the victims!!! And yes, the parents were also victims. Go learn about the psychology of abuse and sexual assault.
Too many people are scared to blow the whistle on predators. WHY? Children are so vulnerable and innocent
Leaders manipulate the Bible and they're held by wrongly induced guilt
What was done is wrong. Telling people all her adult life about it.... Then why wait to take it to courts until he is a wealthy man?
Job security Marlene. To them, it's all about $$$ because gold is their god, not the Lord Jesus Christ as the Apostle Paul said the last days church would have to deal with.......
Why? Are you reading the unthinkable comments here basically defending Morris and throwing a child under the bus?
Why didn’t the father call the police?
Or punch him in the face!
exactly something is not right with this story
During that time, that was the way Church was conducted. My father should also be held accountable, but the church tends to shame victims while protecting the perpetrators.
I have 4 sisters, my Dad never allowed men to come to our home, he trusted no one. Honestly, Moore needs to pay for what he did.
I believe that her parents need to ask her for her forgiveness for not reporting the incident . They seemed to want to keep it quiet.
It was Olen Griffey, the Church Pastor, and the Elders of Shady Grove Church
who convinced the family to keep it quiet and told them that the church would handle it. If anyone is to blame it’s Olen Griffey and those Elders.
@@KansasMiss-mf4bj Olen seems like total slime! I wonder what the statute of limitations was back then?
It may have only been a couple years. Olen would know. They made Robert an elder at 29. Unheard of.
Olen knew what a money maker he had. I imagine he was a corrupt state trooper as well. Should be investigated! 😠
Jesus said on her video that her parents did try to do something your parents did try to talk about it not that they wanted to keep it quiet this way they could have talked about it just what things I could have done my dad would have when is the next church after he did his sermon pulled him over to the side and just said this is what happened you need to fix it
@@andreaanderson-s9c Her dad told Robert not to preach again. Robert lied about this later, saying he did what Cindy's father said. But he didn't, he only stopped preaching to children.
Exactly
Would like to hear from her parents
Me too!! I don’t understand why they didn’t take action. My mother stood up for me when I told her that her cousin’s husband tried to kiss me. She handled it immediately!!
@@CynthiaX-cs5eyexactly why is she coming forward now something smells fishy here
@@mrnice111 No one owes me an answer, but she was 12 yrs. old & her parents had legal authority to prosecute.

“Accuser”? How about victim? The term “accuser” suggests this victim is being less than truthful, which is a troubling implication since she has absolutely no legal recourse at her disposal (her words in other videos).
YOU ARE SO VERY RIGHT, GOD FOR GIVES IF NOT WE ARE ALL IN TROUBLE, TO EVEN BROADCAST THIS WAS VERY WRONG

I am so happy God held her close and she did not leave her faith because of her abuse.
Exposing sin doesn’t make the church or God look badly. Covering up sin does.
She was victim shamed and blamed. Roberts wife even phoned her & accused her. Robert accused her of being promiscuous . Such suffereing & scarring of a young child.
@@mrnice111 seems all of these types are as you describe. They are legends in their own mind and feel untouchable and never wrong.
If Robert Morris repented for this sin years ago and have not fallen back into this specific sin then why is his repentance not good enough for the Christian? The same God that forgave and continually forgives our sin is the same God who forgave RM. This lady Cindy, said in a previous interview that RM "will do it again." How does she know? She's not God. If we confess out sins God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness, according to the Bible. Though I am sad about what happened to Cindy, I'm confused as a Christian, by her angle and intentions.
He lied about her at her age. She was not a young lady. 12 is a girl. He still lied to the church.
@@brendajones5989 I already know this. If God's word is final authority and He removes our sin then why are you and others continually gossiping and bringing this up? Move on with your lives, there's much work to be done.
YOU ARE RIGHT ON
Clean shire. Not a child.
@@cynthiameansRestating facts is not gossip. She was only 11 when he began the grooming process to have the entire family trust him. Premeditated! I personally care about justice for victims. Should a murderer get away with murder if caught years later? There is God's justice as well as man's. As citizens we can and should seek justice. God supports this. How do you know He isn't now orchestrating this as Cindy believes? Robert has never made restitution and lied for years. He knew the truth would permanently disqualify him. God is patient, and has given us free will. Robert had many opportunities to make amends to Cindy. Pride and greed, 2 deadly sins prevented him.
Praying for everyone involved. Jesus Your grace and mercy.🙏❤️ It is ONLY BY JESUS BLOOD that we ALL have been made RIGHTEOUS.✝️🌏

Great preaching. Jesus loves all of us, but hates our sin. Thank God Almighty, Jesus will forgives all of us if we repent. His love never fails. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ son of the Almighty Father and giver of the precious Holy Spirit.
Robert Morris is a name that will live in infamy not because he sinned years ago but because he deceived people about it for over 40 years and left the victim with horrible scars, refusing to help her financially when he could.
Yes! Robert wanted to be famous. Now he’s famous for all the wrong reasons!
I personally heard him, during a sermon, watching by TV, and he flat out said that a wonderful family had allowed he, Debbie and their first born son, move in with them while he was a young struggling Pastor. He said he had an inappropriate sexual relationship with this man's daughter. He said he repented...to God, the gracious father who opened up his home to them and to his wife, Debbie. He was talking about God's forgiveness and mercy because he dealt with a spirit of lust. He did not say it was a 12 year old child. He did not say he repented to HER but he did say it took him several years to stop even thinking these immoral thoughts. He said he went to the elders before he spoke in the pulpit about it and got their approval. However he did say the SPIRIT OF JEZABEL could also operate in a MAN. HE, also bought up the story of King David and Bethsheba. He did not say the age of "the girl ", (the child). I, along with other viewers thought the girl was later in teens. He said he was 20 or 21 years old but I'm almost sure he said anoyher thing about this situation but refuse to say ANYTHING I DO NOT REMEMBER him saying POSITIVELY. As I stated, he was preaching on forgiveness by God. I feel so sorry for Cindy, Debbie and the children and families on both sides.
I also had a really "odd" feeling several weeks ago when he spoke on the Fear of the Lord, stating that He learned not to Fear the Lord if he was living righteously and obediently and Walking with the LORD DAILY. Then he said, "Do you know what MY BIGGEST FEAR IS?? MY BIGGEST FEAR IS THAT DEBBIE will leave me!! ? I got the strangest feeling and looking back, perhaps it was the Holy Spirit. There was something when he said that, that made me feel strange ( and yes, suspicious. ) i have stated here ONLY WHAT I HEARD HIM SPEAK FROM THE PULPIT ON TV, WE ITH MY OWN EARS. I'M sure Debbie is undone by what is happening, but she KNEW HOW OLD THE GIRL WAS. SHE WAS LIVING THERE TOO. WERE things brewing several months ago to make Robert say his biggest FEAR was Debbie leaving him?? Can anyone get any insight from this and comment...DID YOU HEAR THESE 2 SERMONS? I KNOW IF YOU ATTEND GATEWAY on a weekly basis, you heard EXACTLY what I heard and WHAT is wrong with my discernment that I didnt pick up on more. I broke my back last year and since v then have been falling and fracturing my feet since then. Please help me to understand why I missed this. I can't wait to heal up and get back in church. Yes, our Pastors are sinner's too, but not millionaires leading huge churches and maybe smaller, intimate circles of prayer, praise and worship would be better for a time such as this. Thank you to anyone who might be able to help me a bit. BLESSINGS.🙏🙏🙏🙏💙🩵💙🩵💙🩵😢😢😊😊😊💞💕💞🤍🤍🤍

I appreciate your prayer Brother.💔💔❤️❤️
@@tricillagirl7915 Thank you for confirmation, Sister. It was very hard to do.💔💔❤️❤️
I belei3ve he didn't tell who it was to also protect the family. It was a wicked act. Both he AND the parents wanted get past it.
Hebrews 8:12 I will remember their sins no more! If God doesn’t remember them, who are we to remember them! ♥️
?????????
This is r*pe of a CHILD! He should have been reported and spent the past 20 years in jail; not becoming a millionaire by being in the pulpit!
If they repent, they will be forgiven. Robert did not repent. Please read scripture before spreading lies about what it means.
The consequences for his actions despite the fact he repented does not get nullified! He needs to be held accountable by going to jail.
Nevertheless, it's a criminal offence. In the OT, God's people were forgiven by sacrifices, yet sexual sin carried the death penalty as did some others.
As a Daddy of 3 daughters i commend you for your boldness and courage to come forth! I pray that you continue to help other people going through the same. God Bless you Cindy! I pray that Robert will genuinely repent and seek the Lord.
Something does not add up in this whole scenario. There is more that meets the eye. Why is she on all the interviews etc.
She’s here so people don’t remain clueless and help be part of the solution. You might go read up on Gateway church and how their leadership has been hiding molestation.
$$$$$$
????? I don't know where you're coming from.
Because the very short in morals pastor of Gateway church, and his like-minded friends wouldn't practice what Jesus and the Bible preach.
So it's now up to a woman to do the man's job. They let it happen and I don't think the Father will ever allow those lawbreakers and lovers of sin back into the church.
@@ca-fl5he....well I know where they are coming from. This is only a Gateway problem because of Morris. This was a Shady Grove elders and her dad who brokered this silence deal. Have you ever been 16 years old? Have you ever been 14 years old?
I remember in my family home when my father's friend walked into our kitchen and was flirting with me and I was 16. It creeped me out ....that was 1986. I was the only one home and I had babysat his girls before. The only guys I had interest in were in my class. I was well aware of the inappropriate behavior he was displaying.
We had 3 interim teachers at our school, fresh out of teacher's college. Two women and one guy (23) and some of the school girls were crushing on him badly. They would write smutty Harlequin letters about scenarios with him.
I was 11 when my Grandfather tried to lay on me when I was sick and he had sent my brother and cousin to the arcade....and I freaked out with full strength and ran away.
When someone says there is more to this, guess what?, they might know a little something from experience.
4.5 years of sexual abuse and her parents never suspected a thing. Me thinks there are more people culpable than just the creep Robert Morris. The parents are just as guilty as he is and yet she protects them. Why is no one questioning why they allowed him near their young daughter all those years and never questioned his obsession with her? This story is still missing pieces.
His wife was with him, apparently.
Exactly. In all my comments I've said this too---where in the world was cindys parents all those years that this went on??? Why did Cindy let him keep doing it---up to age 17 or so. That's not a child! I'm sure many are wondering these things too. As a Christian why didn't Cindy and her husband meet with Morris and his wife and confront him about what he did to her when she was younger and keep it between them--- and God--- instead of the whole world???? Just a thought.
If you extend the statute of limitations, it can destroy the lives of innocent people as well. That is a dangerous thing to do. Her parents dropped the ball 37 years ago.
@@JamesRiddle_Christ_is_King Sounds like his own parents dropped the ball.
He should have been in jail years ago. Only God knows if there are other victims.

I started dealing with what happened to me in my 50s. I lost my whole family, not one speaks to me. If I speak about the years of dealing with the aftermath and effects, the response from those who I thought would understand; they rejected it and said just an excuse. Not easy to stand alone with truth.
Gordon wise words. Much needed and appreciated. God Bless you.

Thank you for sharing this CBN.
I’m baffled by how many Christian’s are condemning the victim.
True... Someone who is a VICTIM doesn't share their secret! Im surprised that she didn't commit suicide in her young years!
True... They blame her for his shame!
I am actually not. These individuals are part of a cult and idolize Robert. He has greatly influenced them. "Touch not the anointed" is a phrase often misused by those who lack a proper understanding of Biblical context.
Well said, Mr. Robertson. There has been much judgement and little forgiveness and discernment in this story. May BOTH Ms Clemensen and Mr. Morris find the healing and spiritual reconstruction they need. May God work all things together for good in this.
Strongly agreed!

If you were Cindy or if she was your relative/friend, I’m sure your opinion would be different
He “coasted” along for many years under the guise of an affair with a “young lady”. He may of repented for his 5 years of abuse against Cindy BUT what about the lying by omission for all these years???
Someone tell Pastor Robert Morris, that despite everything that is happening, am so grateful for his life and he preached Jesus and Jesus Crucified and am a changed being because of his preaching. His preaching has carried me through the toughest of times. May God carry you through the storm!!! I will be praying for you. My work is to Pray and leave God to Judge.

He told them that he had done bad things after he married debbie. He had told it from the pulpit. This is not the unforgivable sin. I too was molested.

@@SandraLira-gq8oj Aren't you a judgmental pedo enabler
There was a Gateway Dallas pastor who physically abused a volunteer he was seeing. The pastors covered it up and then removed her. She had to go to the police and he plead out this year. This is still being covered up.
I made a comment earlier and a person called Cross-stitch commented and I did comment back however I do not see it. Let me explain what I said and why and I still stand by my previous come as to why this lady is just now bringing this up at her age. And before you start jumping the gun on my reasoning you should at least hear me out. I've grown up in church just like her. I suffered from sexual abuse since the same age. Not the same circumstances with it being church but it was definitely by a professing Christian. I was also married 15 yrs to a man that verbally, physically, mentally and psychologically abused me. I'm 58 yo now and I am an overcomer. That's not bragging that's praising God for His kindness, mercy and grace. He gave me early on the ability to forgive others and I am grateful for this. Being in the church it simply doesn't equate in my head, heart, soul or discernment how after all this time... And a child of God... Why forgiveness is not a part of this lady's walk? I didn't say forgetfulness. That's a very hard point to get to. Whether Robert Morris repented to her or the way that she deems appropriate or not. That's on him. Although I think he should. You can't live your life waiting for apologies or repentance or people to get fired for you to get on with your life. I went to therapy as well. It takes years for some people. And yes, even up to 54, as I have been schooled by someone. You would think the community of faith would have helped her. IMO. Did her parents or didn't they basically agree to let it go? That's when the police should have been involved. That's when the church couldn't have swept it under the rug. That's when a bitter yet healing explosion could have begun. EVERYONE swept it under the rug. Families of faith what have you done?!?! What everyone at that time was doing!!! Fast forward to COVID... I remember when we back at church Robert Morris had a special Repentance show. It was overwhelming positive and highly commendable by a huge audience and so many people repenting. A lot of popular people were there. No one else but God knows whether he repented or not. It would have been the most oppurtune time. At this time bringing this up is only going to bring heartache to All the families involved. If I didn't feel like even more suffering wouldn't come upon her I wouldn't be praying for her now. Every once in a while we should take stock of ourselves and with kindness but firmness remove anything that is destructive, unproductive, and not benefitting to us. Prayfully doing so. Sweeping that all away and trusting God with your life to rule and reign in it. Otherwise I cannot help but hope and pray for her a brighter future but feel remorseful for her lost years and the destruction that has lied and will continue in her wake. Peace and Blessings to All 🙏🙏🙏
John 14:6
“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

It's never too late for the truth to come out. Robert, his wife and the church buried it for many years. Cindy has tried for years to bring the truth to the light. The Bible speaks of the darkness coming to the light in many scriptures. Who are any one of us to block that?

@@davidcruz8057 Thank you, David. Even though I have the unpopular opinion it is steadfast. We must speak out when the heinous of any crimes happen and hopefully then they may be corrected. I know myself for not speaking to anyone at all about my husband until he actually held a gun on me outside of our house. But everyone already knew and of course our daughter witnessed it all. Had I stopped it when it began she wouldn't have suffered growing up and is just now getting better. So I know this well. But let the others tear into me all they want because with all I went through I see way more than sympathy. May the God of All Glory overrun you with His glorious Joy, Peace and Blessings all the days of your life and that of your family. In the Mighty the Powerful and the Holy name of Jesus Amen 🙏🙏🙏
The world does not like the truth, remember when the Lord invited that jerk that he was competing when they were supposed to be friends. Jealousy needs to be cured. The win lose scene is. What if there was a game people vs predator? who would win. Ha ha Ha?
@@annanderson1470 What if the person spoke out repeatedly but no one did anything? The family forgave but their was a condition that Robert would leave the ministry.
This was the arrangement in lieu of his being charged and jailed. They tried for years to enforce the agreement that was made. Cindy is adamant her father and the family did not bless him in a return to ministry. Just because it took time to become public, doesn't mean nothing was happening during all this time. It's such a slap to her that people ask "why didn't she speak up sooner?"
So very glad she kept her faith and trust and connection with God. She must have a strong family and support.
Oh...SHAME ON ROBERT MORRIS!!!!! EXPLAIN TO ME JUST HOW HE WAS ALLOWED TO STAY IN THE PULPIT! ABSOLUTELY NO REPENTANCE SHOWN HERE!
@@mrnice111 THAT ABSOLUTELY MEANS NOTHING! ITS ON THE CHURCH LEADERSHIP IF THEY TRULY WERE MADE AWARE.....PERIOD
Who are you to shame on anyone?! Will you say shame on Moses, shame on King David, Shame on Rahab too and others who came before and yet committed acts (adultery, murder and prostitution)? Yet, the Lord God used them. Galatians 6:1 Brethren, if a man is [a]overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.
@@cynthiameans YOU show yourself to be ignorant of The Word by offering these who have gone on before us as examples! EVERY SINGLE 1 OF THEM SHOWED TRUE REPENTANCE AND SORROW....your beloved Apostate man showed absolutely none of that and disrespected Our Holy Mighty God by staying in the Pulpit.
@@missiechako5917AMEN !! truth and great comment
He was allowed to stay because it is Robert Morris’ church. He founded it and grew it. Plus, the Elders have an alliance to him. Not to mention that he has lied about this event for 35 years.
Oh! Thank you so much. I cannot express how much it means to hear these words in a broadcast like this. Growing up with a strong faith in God (and love to my parents) while incest happening also. It is like a shadow of a hope I never even dared to dream comming true. Thank you.
This hurts so much. God forgives. Thank you so much Gordon for the Ezekiel verses. I will walk in a new reverence for my salvation because of your word on this heartbreaking matter.
Not only did you report the news story, but you told us what to do with it. Well done Gordon! Robert Morris will only find peace when he humbles himself and repents.
Exactly, I was asking those questions too, Thank you Jesus Amen 🙏, I pray for the Morris Family In Jesus name 🙏
Thank you ❤
Amen 💓
You did the right thing. Please don't regret it.😢 He shouldn't have been in the pulpit.
As a SA victim, it was hard but i forgave. I was 12.5 years old when raped. It's crazy because I worked in the hospital and the person that did this to me was dying of liver cancer. God told me that I had to release and forgive him. God placed him in the same hospital on the same floor I worked. I never told anyone because truly ashamed and it did cause me guilt. So I walked in the room and told him that I forgave him for what he did. God placed me in that situation to forgive that man day and to also pray for him. Some of us say we forgive as Christians but can be the biggest stone throwers I've ever seen, sad.
I can’t even continue watching this. I know I don’t know a lot, but there’s something that does not feel right!
He should have gone to jail back then… the parents should have called the police, as others have said.
She just said “For such a time as this…this is God’s timing…”.
God will expose sin in the camp. I’m just not sure about her verbiage.
I’m just going to pray. God help us all.
WHY DID SHE WAIT UNTIL NOW?!! WHY?
I too went through someone tried to rape me and at first I never told anyone because I felt people would say it was my fault. Remember I'm now 65 back then men were the dominant figures. But I now know I have a voice and I share my story to help other women . So please remember that !
King David would've been stripped from his throne if this un biblical understanding this poor woman has been duped. Thinking of what happens to someone who sins when they're 20 years old and now is 60 or 80 or whatever pastor Morris is ? we need to really use discernment that God has given us in these end times. Unbelievers are just laughing and waiting for this kind of garbage on both sides.
King David was not a priest or pastor. God did not allow him to build the temple, and he felt the repercussions in his family for years. God forgives but the Bible is clear that the shepherds who speak in God's name are judged by a stricter measure.
Ty well said
I'm a believer. I'm also a believer in justice. Non-believers won't be interested in a church or a God that is so unjust. Cindy has forgiven and trusts in God. She has never received restoration from Robert. They only concerned themselves with restoration of the perpetrator all those years ago.
No money can heal a child from that kind of trauma !!
But she deserves to get some kind of restitution.
It takes years of counseling, a close walk with Jesus, but know that He alone can heal the psyche, emotions, heal the broken heart and crushed spirit. Releasing the anger, bitterness, resentment, and any unforgiveness. I know, I am a sexual abuse survivor. And, sometimes deliverance is needed as well. Each situation is different. And, it's so true --- both sexes can be sexually abused. I am thankful that CBN is covering this ---- and actually facing it. It's important to speak truth because when sexual abuse is involved, there's a deep level of deception. She's correct about Robert Morris not speaking truth. It's the same with my abusers. They never said they were sorry. But, I don't have to wait for that. I can be healed and set free without them ever being able to admit the harm they have done.
I was malici years and I never had canceling by every man , even my father. Am I just fine.
@@monastrandburg based on your comments here you are obviously still struggling in every way imaginable. Bless your sweet heart
It doesn’t
Amen to your epilogue.
Always remember we all sin...you have to pray for redemption...and sin no more...Only God us Perfect...only God Can Save you ...go to him Be Washed in the Blood of the Lamb....
Amen!
All true. All sin. If you confess and repent God will forgive you. Do you think Pastor Morris confessed, truly? He lied about the sin for over 40 years, misleading people very close to him. That is not true confession and repentance. Also, although sin can be forgiven, it doesn't meant that one who sins as a pastor should remain as a pastor.
ROBERT ask Cindy herself for forgiveness. You apologized to her parents I read.
And give her the recompense she wants. God himself can't change what happened over 40 yrs. Ago. He can forgive and Bring good out of this.
Blessed be the Lord.🙏✝️
He should have been placed in jail. He is a predator and only God knows how many other victims he has harmed. I pray all is reveled
All atonement and forgiveness is found in the sacrifice that Jesus Christ made on the cross for our sins.
That does not mean there aren't legal and social and professional consequences for sins.
So beautiful, Gordon. The world of God is truly lamp to our feet
"And does what is lawful and right". Robert has yet to make any restitution to Cindy. None of his dubious "restoration" included her! She wasn't asking much when she wanted her ongoing therapy paid for.
In arrogance, he and his wife not only denied her but once again threatened her with prosecution. Reestablishing his control over her.
He has yet to "man up" by at least making good on the financial damage he caused her. This loose end continues to tie them together and must be resolved to advance the healing of them both.
Agreed.
He obviously never repented, just regrets having problems from it.
Who in their right mind would want money from their abuser? I would want your prosecution, not your money. That's fishy to me. If therapy isn't working what can money do in its place? This is the USA. Insurance will pay for it. I'm not buying that she needed money to pay for ongoing therapy.
@@ladiuneeq9789 He profited from her story. He told it several times from the pulpit saying it was a young lady. Leaving out that she was a twelve year old girl. The statute of limitations ran out for criminal convictions. There’s also the fact many abusers are repeat abusers and more women will come forward now they see someone else has. Actions have consequences.
@@willterrell2862 "He profited from her story" .... See, this is why most of you need therapy. Your thought process is unhinged!
Why this victim kept quiet all these years.
See her interview with Allen Parr for your answer
This is NOT atypical w abuse victims! Please get educated!!
Needs money
maybe she thought she enticed him, but in reality she was being abused and used and just wanted to be platonic.
How? The parents were not vigilant NOR his WIFE.
So bad she had to go through all this almost alone.
Too bad the parents and leadership didn't fully take up the matter and work out Justice, Healing & Forgiveness.
Too too bad that it has to come out at this time meaning she hasn't fully healed and now the Church & God's Name she was trying to PROTECT is marred badly. The Testimony & the People Robert has impacted now is greatly impacted in the negative...
I wish as the BODY OF JESUS CHRIST we find a way of Confronting our issues in Time & Bible way that both the victim & offender who share the SAME FATHER - GOD can find Wholeness, Mercy & Healing!
SHALOM
great comment and I agree!
They do not have the truth from Robert Morris. This has another side of the story. I believe the story has not been told from this lady.
Sad no one did anything and allowed him back. I definitely believe in forgiveness but he was secretly doing this while in ministry so I can’t imagine why he did this. Your married you have a leadership role and why put yourself in this kind of situation and why hurt your friends child? He definitely needed to step out of ministry and this was an immediate dismissal doing that. It’s basically rape to.
@@LALady1 Basically r-pe! There is no basically to it. He did r-pe her! Robert Morris is a pedophile.
I believe he has repented. Not for you or anyone to judge
The church failed hiding the sin instead of bringing to light
So sad 😞 it’s a crime
The church has to take a stand !
This is just so sad. The problem with concealing these is, it’s difficult for such leaders to call each other out.
God is still on the throne. He knew this will come out, He knows how to deal with it.
Cindy, you’re in our prayers.
He needs to be charged and prosecuted for this! What a disgusting man!
Now she is called
THE ACCUSER!
@@bernhardbauer5301 I usually see 'alleged' abuse, etc. They have to say that because he hasn't been tried and convicted. Just legalities. He pretty much admitted it though because of his emails. And that he resigned.
Thank you for talking about this…
While Morris may be guilty the timing of this does not sit right at all. I think there is something amiss
God is so good.Amen❤
If she has been telling people about this her whole adult life, why is it being made a public ordeal now? Why do people wait until someone is wealthy to sue? She should have done this long before now, especially if she has been telling people for many years.
@@punkinpie1196 She contacted Robert in 2005, almost 20 years ago, and asked if he would reimburse her for the cost of therapy she had paid for. She would have been 34 years old at that point. She didn’t wait until he was wealthy. He has not paid her a single dime for all her pain and suffering.
And she told many in Christian Leadership over the years and no one wanted to hear it or act on it. How sad is that.
Praise God she has come forth at this time! She is such an inspiration to so many that have been molested by preachers they and their family trusted. But I sincerely hope she sues him for millions!! Do you know that he molested her 100x!
Are you sure you are a Christian, because with your judgement of her, you could have fooled me.
The word “occult” means to “coverup” or”conceal”
When this happens in the church ,it’s straight up witchcraft.
Jesus Never tells us to handle sin this way…..bring it into the light.
Praying for real redemption and restoration
for all those involved 🙏❤️🩹🕊️
Forgiven and forgotten already brought to the light after that cast far as the east to the west.,
@@MicheleJustice-w9s A pastor must maintain a spotless reputation and uphold the highest moral standards. It is crucial to understand that pedophilia is not a behavior that can simply be switched off.
Thank you for your insightful comment and for demonstrating a deep understanding of Biblical context. Your perspective is greatly appreciated.
I love Jesus Christ and I always experienced a bad vibe from Robert Morris and a lot of the TV Evangelist asking for money.
Good day, from Southern California. 🌴 🌞 ⛱ ❤
I’m sorry but 35 years later has no other purpose other than harm.
amen!
Respectfully. Listen carefully she has told people over 35 years what has happened and went to churches where Robert served or preached. She’s not taking Mr Morris to court. She knows it’s been a long time. This will help young tweens and hopefully even smaller children will be able to tell. And unfortunately for parents are to talk to children in the way they understand what inappropriate touching is wrong.
@@starfernandez314 She has retained Billy Graham's grandson as an attorney so please - she is out for $$$$.
she's hateful, vengeful and vindictive.
@@jenniewebb374 I agree with you because RM is NOW famous and is rich, she is after blood and money no doubt. Although, RM should pay her restitution pain, suffering, and for her counseling expenses. This should have been settled very shortly after the incidents happened. Now, this is making her look greedy. If this does help other victims and survivors, then it will be a good thing to happen.
1 Timothy 3:2-5 Therefore an overseer must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, sober-minded, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach, not a drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, not a lover of money.
According to God's word THIS man has no RIGHT TO PASTOR A CHURCH!
In the 1980's most churches didn't have protocols set up for pastors to know how to handle these situations. It wasn't until 1990 when we began to pastor in another denomination that we were given protocols. We weren't to deal with it inhouse, but immediately call the authorities. We also were to have anyone involved in ministry...pastors, Sunday scool teachers, nursery workers given a background check.
Our first denomination was based in the midwest where they weren't dealing with SA as much, but our 2nd denomination was centered in CA where they were, I think❤❤❤
I’ll pray for you, lady. He’s a gifted person but he remember what David you’re full of a lot of resentment you need to let it go.
the vengeful spirit is obvious in her,
Very sad 😔. She's brave and gives glory to God for helping her forgive and stay strong.
We help other people by leading them to Christ, not to the judicial system. I was molested as a teen somebody led me to Christ and that helped me to say no more to that perpetrator it set me free. And eventually, I could forgive that person and now I truly was set free and that freed them to repent also, I didn't have to go to a judicial system thank God and that's not biblical anyways, so I'm praying for this woman that she will not lead people to justice but lead people to Jesus.
Well said.
I do feel that Pastor Morris has asked God for forgiveness, but he is now suffering the consequences of his actions. No one will escape the consequences of their action, whether good or bad. God is able to forgive and restore. His grace is sufficient.
Joseph was a godly man because he wanted to divorce Mary quietly when he thought she had committed adultery. It is not godly to shame and expose people because we all have a multitude of sins.
Mary was much younger than Joseph, and Joseph was not a pastor who sinned for four and a half years and lied and evaded punishment for the rest of his life. Robert did not confess his full sin to the church, he is the primary cause of all this. Cindy is handling it the best she can.
Robert has gotten far far less than he deserves.
Sorry, I am a believer, but you are using examples that don’t match. Comparing getting pregnant in a relationship to getting raped or abused is a slap to the victims.
@azpersonal no the point is not exposing people to open shame is ,"godly" the victim wanting to ruined a man for what he did 40 years ago is not a good thing and it's none of our business. If she wanted to report it years ago she could have and should have. It is not godly to use social media to try people in the court of public opinion. What did Jesus wo with the woman caught in adultery????????
@lizh1988 have you ever lied hated someone, looked with lust, envied been greedy? Gossiped or slandered? We all deserve he'll therefore stop your mouth and judging. Just like the woman caught in adultery " let he among you who is without sin cast the first stone"
@@TedMyrrh I never did any of that as a pastor and teacher of religion. If I did I truly repented if it. Not like this guy who just kept doing it and then lied about it.
I know He helped me and I wouldn't be alive now if it wasn't for Jesus
I don’t understand why the abused keep going on for 4 years ? Why she did not go to the police ? So many questions to be answer
She liked it the garden tool
She was a child if you do some research a lot of children do not come forward until well into adulthood about abuse.
Brainwashing the victim
Trauma and fear keep you from being able to speak.
If Morris had really repented, he would have been willing g to come out of hiding his sin and calling it something less, and go through the consequences. He was out of ministry a short time and Resumed ministr
y as he continued his molesting of Cindy.
Real repentance is TELLING THE TRUTH, taking the consequences, and change. He lied. He should stand up and take it like a man instead of hiding behind a law firm who tries to spin the truth and blame Cindy for FLIRTING with him. No normal person construes a child flirting with them as a sexual overture. It’s nauseating that he’s trying to blame it on her.
I just don’t get it. Why would she allow this to go on for 5 years??? Just because he told her not to tell? Makes no logic.
agree she's not as naive as she wants others to believe.
If there isn't room at the foot of the cross for victims and predators alike, is it the Gospel we are truly practicing? I have followed Morris' ministry for years. He was not as forthright about his past as he should have been, but if this event had happened in Jesus day, would Saul/Paul have been able to minister as he did? Would we have allowed his writings to be part of the New Testament? Isn't the root of the Gospel that we can be raised to newness of life? This is indeed a weighty issue and it is only right, to me, that it is again being brought up in the church, but I feel that Morris' failings have more to do with the aftermath of the sexual sin and how he didn't deal as honestly as he should have with the confession part of his transgression than the sexual sin itself. I could be wrong, but if he was truly able to pull himself out of that pit, which other ministers in the faith only move on to new ground, then don't we owe him the grace God would give him? The grace that we all want in life? I know for some it seems that line of defense is making me a pedophile supporter, but I was involved in a similar incident when I was around the same age as Cindy Clemishire. It was anything, but easy to deal with and my parents failed me, too, IMO. I just always wanted for the man involved to have a real moment of repentance and change and hopefully come to me to ask forgiveness. That never happened and he died without my ever knowing if he ever felt sorry for what he did. Also, to me, it seems that Robert Morris was only 20 years old at the time. That is hardly an adult. IMO. Should he have known better? Absolutely. And there is no excuse for sin and this type of sin is abhorrent, but I still think that we are failing to truly look justly at both sides of this issue. The example was used of King David, who was a whole lot older when he fell, but he didn't lose his position as king. So is this really the best example?
This is so sad
What's even more creepy - he referred to her as a "young lady." My god, man, she was 12....
Calling young girls 'young lady' has been done forever as just a simple form of address.
Thank you for saying this
@@Tina-ez5pg Incorrect. Robert refers to his victim as a young lady, yet he lacks the respect to apologize in person. He lied to dodge the pedophile thing. It didn't work.
Wonderful video.
King Manasseh, shed so much blood, that he was blamed for turning Israel against the Lord. God chastised him & in his distress, his prayer moved the heart of God, so much so , that God returned Him to Israel , AND TO HIS KINGDOM , & Manasseh taught the people to repent. Why didnt this ladies parent, or friends call the police in all those years from her youth?
Do you all understand that they did not have sexual intercourse? She had heavy petting with him. YES, its unexcusable given the ages. But again after seeing her interview with Allen Paar, things came out that have to question this woman's accountability. What is it that she wants, you must ask yourself that. And I will not answer anymore replies. This in itself should have not directed the course of her life. We should all at some point take stock of our lives and with kindness but firmness remove all that is unproductive, unhelpful and not worthy. Sweeping it all away and lifting it up to our Father. Letting Him resign and reign in you. Leaving nothing behind. He is who washes us clean and births forgiveness in us. True forgiveness in us not wanting nothing from no man other than to live in peace and harmony in their own lives. This is my third comment so I will not be responding to anymore that try to get me to understand anything other than what I already do. If she had kept this to herself all these years it would be another story. But she didn't. And she did ask for 2 million at one time from him. She admitted it. She said she was throwing a number out there because of all the therapy she had and will need. Let me remind you that it's called righteous judgement in the bible. And not "" feelings judgement " . Ask God, who answers His children.. which judgement your's is falling under. He is faithful and will show you. Peace and Blessings 🙏🙏🙏
Still can understand how you can claim you are a believer
amen!!!!!!
He has to respond for that awful act that lasted years, a disgrace and he has to deal with it
Who told her to bring this back up, GOD or the world? Did she help GODS work or the punks work? Which one is laughing ?
Acts 15 28 “For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay no greater burden on you than these few requirements: 29 You must abstain from eating food offered to idols, from consuming blood or the meat of strangled animals, and from sexual immorality. If you do this, you will do well. Farewell.” -- Ony four laws and Morris could not abstain from sexual immorality, and he could not even confess and repent over such a long time.
Very sad , Proverbs 19:11 this was 35 years ago! Terrible that she would even bring it out ( he was 20 years old at the time!) Seems malicious and selfish doesn’t set well in my spirit . Proverbs 17:9 He who conceals a transgression seeks love!!!
She’s wanting $$ her real estate business is not doing well she found the opportunity
Luke8:17
“For all that is in-secret, will eventually be brought out into the open, and everything that is concealed ,
will be brought to the light, and made known to all”
Proverbs 28:13 whoever conceals, his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.
It is so confusing to me why you Christians are so venomous with your mouth and your words towards this victim, who was a child when it happened .
Where is your anger towards Pastor Morris ? who, still to this day ,cannot confess with his mouth that he molested a CHILD for 4 yrs .
While a pastor ,while married,with a small child.
Where is your hostility towards that foulness! Even prisoners have a moral compass against men like that ,it’s a shame when believers don’t seem to🤯
@@arod1pilot What a sick comment. She was offered money but she would not sign an NDA. Numbers 32:23 Be sure your sin will find your out.

Mine either - the woman is vengeful and vindictive.
Why are you bringing all of this back up after all of these years. It sounds like unforgiveness to me
vindictive and vengeful she is.
Dylan said it best, I wish for that just 1 moment you could stand inside my shoes!!!!! That's for people who......have not a clue...
He is out of the pulpit! Hope she can now forgive him and go on with her life
Seems she has forgiven him and gotten on with her life, including an important new mission to help protect children across the country from having to go through what she experienced!
It's sad......because he should never have been in the pulpit, there is the problem.....
He confessed his sins to Jesus and he was forgiven. 1John 1:9
That's not what the Bible says. It says to go to your brother and ask forgiveness first. He did not repent. True repentance leads to reconciliation, which Robert and Cindy do not have.
"If your brother sins against you, go and confront him privately. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses. If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, regard him as you would a pagan or a tax collector." Matthew 18:15-17
“Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother or sister has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to them; then come and offer your gift." Matthew 5:23-24
AND NOW THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE THAT GOD REQUIRES FROM THE GOVT SHOULD LEGALLY TAKE HIS LIFE, AS THE LAW OF GOD REQUIRES.
Get over it lady. Your got your "15" minutes of fame.
she wants much more than that.
I’m so sorry for Cindy. Prayers.
