You are a breath of fresh air. I've been ministering for about 11 years. I have a similar path as Pastor Tims. The difference is I opened up about my struggles to my closest brothers early on in our ministry. And sure enough I was cast out, slandered, and forgotten. They did not follow any biblical protocol to show me love, talk to me first one on one, and give me counsel. Instead my trusted friends became a secret koo that formed itself to only gossip and attempt to destroy me. Thus of course damaging good roots that had already been laid for ministering to the broken and lost souls of our community. Their pride and self righteousness became a stumbling block to the gospel. So yes, Paator Tims had pressures on him that the majority of people both believing and unbelieving do not understand. And now 10 years later I'm called to forgive these men and prepare to reform our community. They are in a deep state of struggle, shame, and regret because of the extremes they took to slander me. Praise God for His willingness to still use us after all the unfaithfulness. God wants the Gospel preached and we have to stop lettimg self righteousness interfere. That is the work of Satan. We must Love one another the way God Loves us. With great patience, and never being surprised that humans make mistakes of all kinds. If God is not surprised at our worst behavior, then why should we be surprised if a human is imperfect? Thank you for this most valuable perspective on how to treat our fellow brothers and sisters. It encourages me in this mess that was created just for being honest. - Blessings
God bless you. The true church is being brought to an open shame as a result of self righteousness, pride and arrogance of the false church. These are the days of Elijah. I am looking for a miracle from heaven. The people in the church seem to think the devil that tempts is more powerful than Jesus that saves. I believe Jesus can save - even pastors.
@@howconnie Amen Sister - thank you. Yes Christ has conquered everything. Greater is He that is in us than the fallen one that is in the world. It's time for all fearful and lukewarm Christians to step into boldness. Time to Trust the Most High for Deliverance in all trials and tribulations 🙏✝️ - Blessings
Will be praying for you, Thanks for sheading some light on this story, I heard of his passing but wasn't having a hard time believing it. Blessings to you.
Hi connie. So proud of you on your recovery!! You are very transparent- I'm sure that that has helped you a lot. It helps all of us to be transparent so that we can be free. Thank you for doing this vid. It's full of truth. God bless you baby girl.
@johnnyluvsjesus Johnny, I know Zachery had drugs, women and death. David God's most loved killed a man after getting his wife pregnant. When do we heal the body instead of throwing stones. Jesus said 'he without sin', that's not me.
Thank you for honesty and your position. I can really appreciate your truth from your standpoint as you have been there. I see a view that I never saw. Once again thanks for enlightening me.
I came here because the story seemed so bizarre to me. I was curious how Paula White got to take over Timms church,use her pulpit for political reasons and ended up looking like a blond buffoon after she attempted to pray and chant her way into winning for so many of the wrong reasons. Timms was an awesome preacher. To start with 5 followers and then to amass over 7,000 is a mighty feat. Pastor Timms educated with his uplifting spirit and mentally healed the sick and confused. He gave them hope. He changed many lives for the better. He preached perfection. He was not perfect. No one is perfect. He did not hide his bout with addiction. Paula White is one of the biggest examples of imperfection but it's predicted that she will rise again from the distrusted, the sneers and the accusations of selfishness and greed. She will prevail unlike Timms who didn't get that 2nd chance at falling and getting up once more to dust off the dirt and start anew. He took down himself, not a sea of followers. Yet the story of his journey will still help to educate and uplift spirits from the dark and lonely corners. Don't care though that he died in disgrace.Just glad that he lived to change so many lives for the better.
Praise the Lord, how ironic, I rejoice in Pastor Tim’s life. All be it was short, it was mighty. The word of God says ‘We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities...Spiritual darkness in high places’ Ephesians 6: 12 The true Christian loves all flesh, we know God, the creator is in control. God bless you.
You're right, Connie, and that is why the pastor as CEO model does not work. No more Moses leading the people. We are a Body. Every one of us is necessary. Someone has charisma, and we immediately make an idol of him. Our church services become theater. Go to hell? Wow. Adios.
hi connie you stay in the word of the lord and for any one who wants to talk about this young pastor let them god said for us to pray for them because they have not yet came to the fullness of our LORD and SAVIOUR I know where you are coming from I to am a recovering drug addict 10 years clean and only by the grace of GOD THANKS
I commend you on this video. While going through the internet to make a donation to Pastor Riva's church I found out about Pastor Zack. I didn't even know that he was divorced or the circumstances of his death and would have preferred not to know. Stop putting pastors on pedestals, they are flesh and blood. In the Bible God Himself said that man is not perfect. People put entirely too much pressure on pastors. Get your life right before judging others. Learn to listen. Remember the Glass House.
Amen 🙏 🙏 Amen. God bless you as well..sometimes people's rush to judge others but our heavenly father Jesus christ is the only one that can judge all of us.. his words said's every knee should bow and every tongue will confess..and that day will be soon and I mean very soon. We don't know what pastor Tim's words was with the lord before he left this world...only the lord Jesus christ knows 🙏.
Philippians 3 10 For my determined purpose is that I may know him. (that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him. Percieving and recognizing the wonders of his person's more strongly and more clearly) and in that same way come to know the power outflowing from his resurrection (which it exerts over believers) and that I MAY SHARE HIS SUFFERINGS as to be continually transformed in spirit into his likeness. That if possible I may attain to the spiritual and moral
I love your heart and your passion, compassion for the late Pastor. I have lost so many people in my life to drugs and what your saying is so true! The church leadership failed him they just wanted him to produce like every other Manager, or conglomerate corporate CEO!
I have had a problem with what could be seen as an addiction in my past also. The Lord used His word to open my eyes and find the power that He provides for us thru His indwelling. For years I tried to deal with it thinking that I was doing all I could do to stand against it. I only found repeated failure. It was'nt until I read a writing by the late Charles Finney entitled "Charles Finney on Faith" that I have come to understand and experience true victory over the lusts of the flesh and sin.
THANK YOU FOR TAKING TIME TO BREAK DOWN THE NATURAL FACTOR OF THE STRUGGLE. EVERYTHING IS NOT A SPIRITUAL VIEW POINT CHRISTIANS STRUGGLE TO.... NEVER THE LESS HE WAS TRUE TO HIS CALL AND DID AN "EXCELLENT JOB" OF SERVING THE KINGDOM! THANK YOU
that's right Connie I'm just finding out he passed..pastor Zachary Tim's helpful me many times in my darkest days! so if he was an addict then he was a better man of God for me than the do called ' holier than thou saints" who could of cared less about me! may his soul R.I.P...and may he be in God's loving arms for all the good he did.. and God bless you on your continuous road to success and recovery!!!
I appreciate your message. I was on cocaine for years for self esteem. The binge is real. I ODed 2x. I recovered by Netherton Method- past life therapy. it worked. Later I realized it was not my past lives - it was the demons that were attached to me for my addiction. Demons that were lost beings who felt safe in habiting me. Some of those demons were very sad lives- killed from abandonment. that led to murder. I believe my experience was real- cause I got off a serious many years addiction.
May God continue to bless you and yours.....thank you my sista for such encouraging words of wisdom and insight......it is refreshing to see and hear words coming from One who also knows the Lord and speak and throw rocks and show your hands....bless you, bless you Bless you !!!
Unfortunately addiction is due to sin......sin has been replaced by addiction. In today's teachings of the word has taken away the truth of what sin really is. Jesus came to set the captives free......he who the Son sets free is FREE indeed. Pastor Zachary needed to be set free......addiction is not being free......CHRIST breaks all addictions. I am greatly saddened that Pastor Tims died in that state of being.....so sad.
Amen, Amen ! God Bless Pastor Tims children and family always and rest in glorious peace forever Pastor Tims ! I enjoyed your preaching/teaching over the years u have been a blessing to many God loves you !!!!
@hairspeaks Thank you, I guess God can use any of us every once in a while. I just felt compelled to speak the truth since most others were being silent.
In order for a person to understand what addiction is like, they would have had to experienced it for themselves. We all have addictions (to sweets, chocolate, sex, drugs, alcohol, lying, stealing, gambling, etc., some of these addictions are much stronger than others.
No one can just this pastor... because God got him and our heavenly father Jesus christ is a forgiving God. We wasn't in that room this pastor..we all have sin..
Interesting...??? That was something to think about and I must say, we must all remember that we are holistic beings of emotional, physical and spiritual components and each part of us has needs that must be addressed to complete a healthy and wholesome being. God bless you and the family and church members of Pastory Tims. It's difficult for me and I only knew him via television ministry only; but we are all one body and when one hurts we all should anyway.
Sister Connie is only stating a fact that is common in us in Recovery...and I have known brothers and sisters when you try to talk about it...they say something quip and something nice following with an immediate departure...not only does it happen to Pastors but in the congregation, too. All you have to say is "I am having a problem with this..." "Well, leave it in the Lord's hands...and all will be well...Hey Brother so and so..." In other words they are uncomfortable with the topic and scoot.
I really understand the struggle with addiction God delivered my over 30 years ago, and never went back to it, though the grace of God. Having an long time affair with a French prostitute is another thing.
I want to confirm that I am a Bible Based Chrisitan. We use to call alcohol and drugs Spirits. We use to annoit with Basil Tea to clean off our energy-God gave us annointing and the word of God to come against any spirits. But we need to recognize we do not come against people we come against powers and principalities. Go to meetings. Cofirm God loves you He will see you thru.
hello, thank you responding , i have a question not knowing before this ringo guy went to creffo church . why would he get money for going there, or maybe you were just attending . he shouldn't be broke . if he is a tithe payer, offering and seed giver he would not be broke along with service unto God and a clean life listening and obeying God and his word
Woman of God! All I've got to say to you is keep letting God empower you to "speak " to our ignorance. I am your #1 can! Keep thinking, speaking and being bold for God
SO TRUE! and you know what...think about the many other forms of addiction that people are struggling with..It does not mean that his heart was not right with God..no one knows his heart..only God! The ones that are speaking out so loudly against Pastor Zack could have undercover addictions..Lets start with Love..Good Job sweety! I will add your response video to my video..
Howconnie in no way was this the church's fault...but I do agree with you about addiction, my brother's relapsed his ENTIRE life, the only reason he is NOT using now, is because he had a stroke, heart attack & is not able to get to his dealers. His addiction controlled our family & made it a living hell. But,the Pastorate is a calling...not a JOB. Only God knows the heart. We must remember God called a murderer to "shepherd" an entire nation...David...who He called A MAN AFTER HIS OWN HEART..
No one will really understand drug addiction. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm so sorry for all the bullshit from those naysayers and the Medea who gossiped about him. I'm of a different faith but I understand because one of our pastors died of a heart attack out of nowhere at 60. He was a heavy smoker for many years. I don't believe in pointing fingers at people's flaws unless you're perfect which no one is.
Yes. But it is still so appalling to think that a man who could preach and teach so perfectly can still be so imperfect. Still glad that he lived to touch lives in a positive way.
u touched on some of the questions i had, where were his armor bearer, and his people that stay up under the mininsters, i read a artiicle where one of the the clergy called him in , about the company that he was keepin , showin up after church
@alyvnwell you have to click on the message box below the video and scroll to the bottom. It is illegal to put links in the comment section so I had to add them to the video message box. You can only see them when you click on the message box and scroll to the links.
Sure - God loves the sinner, but not the sin. We sometimes confuse the two. And if the sin continues to contaminate the person, God can have nothing to do with that person, unless the person is in a repentant state. He waits. He could have still wait for ZT; we don't know. He could have asked God, right in the midst of what he was doing, to forgive him for that sin. We don't have the mind of God....
@Chatmaine Ashby The question is if the church even knew that he had relapsed. TD Jake's Sermon gives us the impression that HE knew. Will we ever know it all? God only knows what Rev Zach was thinking right before he took his final breath on this earth.
I think your comment was necessary and I respect your thoughts, however, I will say this that the body of Christ is perishing especially if we don't stop making excuses for our sins. Christ died on the cross and it's not about us, but HIM. Many of us are not ready to deny ourselves and the lust of the flesh and suffer for Christ the way he suffered for us. I pray for this Church (the body of Christ) and pray he don't return soon because if He do many of us are going to be left behind.
@johnnyluvsjesus Good point, I think the church is full of Pharasee's-liars, leaving good people with no hope. Hoping we or it changes to that place of dynamic love where great things happen. No fear.
God Completely Saves and Delivers from ALL SIN! However, God requires us to repent and Quit! A leader of a church must be free from those type of demons. If you are in sin Jesus will set you free. God will never make anyone...But he will deliver you if you want to be delivered. There is nothing to hard for God to deliver you from. However, you must furnish your WILL. Repent, Get baptised in Jesus Name and Receive the Gift of The Holy Ghost. You will never be on Crack again.
Howconnie, guess what? you are also beautiful in color and spirit. I knew Pastor Tims before he went stellar while I was in Orlando. He has effected many people positively. If people will read the bible they will find that the creator of our universe has many times choose people that were not follower's of, but yet in spirit God new them ( RIP Zack) You have a believer here~
@alyvnwell I was a part of a furom where we talked to the stripper, and she told of cocaine, and threesomes. I put the links in the message box. So you see I am credible. I understand. there's a forum with over 960 posts, including some from the woman he had a 14 month affair with. Zach is a hot mess, according to the woman there was cocaine, threesomes and a whole lot of ungodly works going on with old Zach.
trust me GOD would have healed him of his addiction because GOD is the only one that can do it you can go to rehab it take the power of GOD and your prayers to GOD to get off drugs no longer with my husband because he could't stop was i suppose to stay another 17 years with him with the same problem no that is not what GOD had for me tearing our family apart if you have not quit drugs in 17years please tell me when will it stop i pray for him everyday where ever he is have not seen him in a year
Connie i am praying for you. Keep on keeping on. You are victorious in Christ Jesus. Remember you are the head and not the tail. God Bless! Check out HolyGhostRadio on the web for anointed preaching, teaching, and singing. Be blessed my sister in Jesus' name!
@johnnyluvsjesus Johnny, I believe you. God sent a prophet to David, and required repentance. We all need to quit doing bad things, our lives would be better for that. God is always good.
how about God answered your families prayers.....not "the only reason ect...."your brother is no longer using because God is in the Prayer Answering Business.....be mindful for what you pray for......
@alyvnwell I believe you want to love. I want you to realize we can stop good men dying in their folly by telling the truth. Allegedly means we don't do anything because we don't know anything. It could have been me in that hotel, I know Zachery is really dead, his kids really don't have a father, I hope we get real, instead of allegedly, so we can really come out of our real sin. Zac's church told him that the dopeman and strippers shouldn't come by the church anymore, google it.
@NewDestinyLives No my friend you or the church did not kill him directly, but we must be willing to acknowledge our mistakes. We may not be directly responsible but we are responsible to pray and to discern when something is wrong. When she said the whole church is on crack, she meant all of you are buying into a lie. And you must recognize that you were deceived and repent and ask God to be more discerning. I hope we can talk, to give you some perspective on this.
I supported my husband through his addiction to drugs for years and for years he never stoped never yes the sniffing of his nose the leaving for days and coming home with the smell of crack on him and his clothes the women calling me saying my husband love them yes howconnie GOD forgive but what you are doing is justifying your use of drugs for pastor Tim and for youself. Baby let me say this you can't keep on sinin and sinin and expect GOD to forgive you everytime and if he was a man of GOD
i know I am late in replying but LOL at - "all that SCREAMING don't make you right !!!" I agree that God can lead his people with a drug addict but i personally believe that it would be OUTSIDE of the church not in the pulpit. Plus there would need to be miracles performed by that drug addict and i do not believe God would allow him to overdose and die , which could lead to other emulators who overdose and die.
No sweetie you are wrong. Instead of going to people go to Jesus,who is the only way..be honest with Jesus. Man can’t help you..comming from a person who was a terrible alcoholic..I hate alcohol now. Go to Jesus not man..is good you are being honest,but be honest with God, because we are all messed up..man can’t help you. Only straight and narrow,and that way is Jesus Christ..that pastor may have had church and religion, and scripture,but he was missing Jesus. The only The only mediator between God and man
Donna, I agree he was missing Jesus, but according to the word of God when Peters shadow hit the demonized, they were delivered. In Africa today, a Man of God is delivering those afflicted with demons when they enter the house. When the people of God set a table for evil, the blood is on their hands.
zach was smelling himself too much and that was a major part of living up to peoples hype. be a pastor and not a pretender. he was all together a good dude but why put unwanted pressure on yourself. you are blaming the church but the church isnt in charge of him when he isnt in church . you act like everyone knew where he was all the time . if anything its the people that was around him the most. if i shoot you it not anyone but my own fault , you have to accept your own mistakes.
You are a breath of fresh air.

Sweet Sugar 101 thank you
@johnnyluvsjesus Johnny, I know Zachery had drugs, women and death. David God's most loved killed a man after getting his wife pregnant.
When do we heal the body instead of throwing stones. Jesus said 'he without sin', that's not me.
I hope more people see your comment, the church needs to show more of God's love and less of the Devil's Judgement.

Howconnie in no way was this the church's fault...but I do agree with you about addiction, my brother's relapsed his ENTIRE life, the only reason he is NOT using now, is because he had a stroke, heart attack & is not able to get to his dealers. His addiction controlled our family & made it a living hell. But,the Pastorate is a calling...not a JOB. Only God knows the heart. We must remember God called a murderer to "shepherd" an entire nation...David...who He called A MAN AFTER HIS OWN HEART..
No one will really understand drug addiction. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm so sorry for all the bullshit from those naysayers and the Medea who gossiped about him. I'm of a different faith but I understand because one of our pastors died of a heart attack out of nowhere at 60. He was a heavy smoker for many years. I don't believe in pointing fingers at people's flaws unless you're perfect which no one is.
So true, God bless you.
Beautiful word- simply perfect. We all battle in someway. Let's never judge. He was an instrument, but he was also a man.
Yes. But it is still so appalling to think that a man who could preach and teach so perfectly can still be so imperfect. Still glad that he lived to touch lives in a positive way.
u touched on some of the questions i had, where were his armor bearer, and his people that stay up under the mininsters, i read a artiicle where one of the the clergy called him in , about the company that he was keepin , showin up after church
@alyvnwell you have to click on the message box below the video and scroll to the bottom. It is illegal to put links in the comment section so I had to add them to the video message box. You can only see them when you click on the message box and scroll to the links.
where is this forum?
Sure - God loves the sinner, but not the sin. We sometimes confuse the two. And if the sin continues to contaminate the person, God can have nothing to do with that person, unless the person is in a repentant state. He waits. He could have still wait for ZT; we don't know. He could have asked God, right in the midst of what he was doing, to forgive him for that sin. We don't have the mind of God....
His church should have challenged him. Most of the time the church knows but are not qualified to counsel or advise
The Maine Thing Exactly God bless you
@Chatmaine Ashby The question is if the church even knew that he had relapsed. TD Jake's Sermon gives us the impression that HE knew. Will we ever know it all? God only knows what Rev Zach was thinking right before he took his final breath on this earth.
I think your comment was necessary and I respect your thoughts, however, I will say this that the body of Christ is perishing especially if we don't stop making excuses for our sins. Christ died on the cross and it's not about us, but HIM. Many of us are not ready to deny ourselves and the lust of the flesh and suffer for Christ the way he suffered for us. I pray for this Church (the body of Christ) and pray he don't return soon because if He do many of us are going to be left behind.
This is true talk... I hope you find strength from God and overcome your own struggle..
@johnnyluvsjesus Good point, I think the church is full of Pharasee's-liars, leaving good people with no hope. Hoping we or it changes to that place of dynamic love where great things happen. No fear.
God Completely Saves and Delivers from ALL SIN! However, God requires us to repent and Quit! A leader of a church must be free from those type of demons. If you are in sin Jesus will set you free. God will never make anyone...But he will deliver you if you want to be delivered. There is nothing to hard for God to deliver you from. However, you must furnish your WILL. Repent, Get baptised in Jesus Name and Receive the Gift of The Holy Ghost. You will never be on Crack again.
Howconnie, guess what? you are also beautiful in color and spirit. I knew Pastor Tims before he went stellar while I was in Orlando. He has effected many people positively. If people will read the bible they will find that the creator of our universe has many times choose people that were not follower's of, but yet in spirit God new them ( RIP Zack) You have a believer here~
i watched the video but I'm not clear how you concluded that his death was the church's fault. Explain.
It shows that God does not save your pastor and how God is gonna save the church
two things, maybe she was not the best person to argue that point and if a person dies from an illegal drug overdoes there is noone else to blame
@hadassah1965 The links are in the videos message box, you have to click the message box, and scroll down
keep up the good work
WOW U ARE A BREATH OF FRESH AIR!!!
@alyvnwell Thank you for helping me to clarify myself, I am going to use those tips for future videos. I am new to Utube and appreciate the help
@alyvnwell I was a part of a furom where we talked to the stripper, and she told of cocaine, and threesomes. I put the links in the message box. So you see I am credible. I understand.
there's a forum with over 960 posts, including some from the woman he had a 14 month affair with. Zach is a hot mess, according to the woman there was cocaine, threesomes and a whole lot of ungodly works going on with old Zach.
Loved it...U nailed it😉
God bless you and happy New Year
likewise love.
mrhazeleyez7@gmail.com
thank you
trust me GOD would have healed him of his addiction because GOD is the only one that can do it you can go to rehab it take the power of GOD and your prayers to GOD to get off drugs no longer with my husband because he could't stop was i suppose to stay another 17 years with him with the same problem no that is not what GOD had for me tearing our family apart if you have not quit drugs in 17years please tell me when will it stop i pray for him everyday where ever he is have not seen him in a year
Connie i am praying for you. Keep on keeping on. You are victorious in Christ Jesus. Remember you are the head and not the tail. God Bless! Check out HolyGhostRadio
on the web for anointed preaching, teaching, and singing. Be blessed my sister in Jesus' name!
@ctblackness2 The response to this video has been shockingly positive, I thought I was going to be crucified for revealing the truth
@johnnyluvsjesus Johnny, I believe you. God sent a prophet to David, and required repentance. We all need to quit doing bad things, our lives would be better for that. God is always good.
RINGO SAYS IT WAS BECAUSE OF HIS WIFE NOT GIVING SEX
❤ this is close to home...I would love to speak to you sister.
It still sends chills through me to this day, appreciate your kindness. God bless you.
Amen!
Amen and God bless you
@Mschocolalicious This is so true.
Great, information.
how about God answered your families prayers.....not "the only reason ect...."your brother is no longer using because God is in the Prayer Answering Business.....be mindful for what you pray for......
very good video🤩
Thanks
@alyvnwell
I believe you want to love. I want you to realize we can stop good men dying in their folly by telling the truth.
Allegedly means we don't do anything because we don't know anything. It could have been me in that hotel, I know Zachery is really dead, his kids really don't have a father, I hope we get real, instead of allegedly, so we can really come out of our real sin. Zac's church told him that the dopeman and strippers shouldn't come by the church anymore, google it.
@1206mjt Wow, that is a powerful word
@RUSH2DESTINY Amen
@NewDestinyLives No my friend you or the church did not kill him directly, but we must be willing to acknowledge our mistakes. We may not be directly responsible but we are responsible to pray and to discern when something is wrong. When she said the whole church is on crack, she meant all of you are buying into a lie. And you must recognize that you were deceived and repent and ask God to be more discerning. I hope we can talk, to give you some perspective on this.
Keep holding on.
I supported my husband through his addiction to drugs for years and for years he never stoped never yes the sniffing of his nose the leaving for days and coming home with the smell of crack on him and his clothes the women calling me saying my husband love them yes howconnie GOD forgive but what you are doing is justifying your use of drugs for pastor Tim and for youself. Baby let me say this you can't keep on sinin and sinin and expect GOD to forgive you everytime and if he was a man of GOD
i know I am late in replying but LOL at - "all that SCREAMING don't make you right !!!" I agree that God can lead his people with a drug addict but i personally believe that it would be OUTSIDE of the church not in the pulpit. Plus there would need to be miracles performed by that drug addict and i do not believe God would allow him to overdose and die , which could lead to other emulators who overdose and die.
yes it a struggle to get free from am addiction
I thank God I have never been on drugs 💉 Never abused prescription drugs, or alcohol
One positive thing about me
What a blessing, amen
Amen. I run my mouth too much but no substance abuse no domestic violence no baby mama drama
@@howconnie email me please.
samuelbolden@yahoo.com
but oooh... what we don't see. The jealousy, the unforgiveness, the lack of compassion...you understand
U seem off lady! Seek help fast.
shes hard to look at
WOW
@johnnyluvsjesus too bad you couldn't reach him before you left
No sweetie you are wrong. Instead of going to people go to Jesus,who is the only way..be honest with Jesus. Man can’t help you..comming from a person who was a terrible alcoholic..I hate alcohol now. Go to Jesus not man..is good you are being honest,but be honest with God, because we are all messed up..man can’t help you. Only straight and narrow,and that way is Jesus Christ..that pastor may have had church and religion, and scripture,but he was missing Jesus. The only The only mediator between God and man
Donna, I agree he was missing Jesus, but according to the word of God when Peters shadow hit the demonized, they were delivered. In Africa today, a Man of God is delivering those afflicted with demons when they enter the house. When the people of God set a table for evil, the blood is on their hands.
What??????
@Chantelle564 Let's start with love, you so eloquent, that is what I was trying to say
@pdg1021 Amen
zach was smelling himself too much and that was a major part of living up to peoples hype. be a pastor and not a pretender. he was all together a good dude but why put unwanted pressure on yourself. you are blaming the church but the church isnt in charge of him when he isnt in church . you act like everyone knew where he was all the time . if anything its the people that was around him the most. if i shoot you it not anyone but my own fault , you have to accept your own mistakes.
