Bishop Weeks is reported to be engaged and set to marry for a 3rd time Pastor Christina Glenn (very similar to Juanita… see below) after his divorce with ‘Prophetess’ Juantia Bynum. All I can say is wow, does anyone not read the Bible anymore? Paul the Apostle said if we divorce we are to remain SINGLE and serve the Lord and seek not to be married again. Jesus said that if we divorce and remarry we have comitted adultery, unless it was for the cause of ‘fornication’.
‘Fornication’ (in my opinion) relates to unproper sexual activity during betrothal, or engagement – some Christians would interpret it to cover adultery within marriage too. However, it can be argued that on the adultery within marriage God took back Israel who constantly comitted adultery. And God played this out through the prophet Hosea… so we see that as scripture and God said ‘I HATE divorce, saith the Lord’.
For Bishop Weeks this will be his 3rd wife according to the website answers.com. Juanita Bynum, his second wife divorced him after he was alleged to have been abusive.
Before, with wife no. 2 Prophetess Juanita Bynum
After, with new wife to be no. 3 Pastor/Prophetess Christina Glenn
According to Vibe Magazine Bishop Weeks decided on Christina Glenn following an online “wife search”. Here’s a video clip about the search for a wife for Bishop week’s… in my opinion it is funny, but not funny. It is a blog post in its own right (thankfully it has already been written by ‘The Pope of Pentecost’ here), he appears to be asking his staff for the criteria for a wife for him. BISHOP what happened to just seeking God’s face?
P.S. Juanita Bynum and Christiana Glenn have very similar preaching styles, see below…

“All I can say is wow, does anyone not read the Bible anymore?”
I ask the same question!
“Paul said if we divorce we are to remain SINGLE and serve the Lord and seek not to be married again. Jesus said that if we divorce and remarry we have committed adultery, unless it was for the cause of ‘fornication’.”
You are absolutely correct on this point!
Marriage is for Life!
Most people have no idea what the Bible truly says about Marriage, Divorce and Remarriage. Many people try to outwit the Lord on this one and declare their remarriage legal in the sight of God when Jesus calls it adultery.
How can a pastor perform the wedding of a divorced person when Jesus says that very night they will commit adultery?
“Everyone who divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery and he who marries one who is divorced from a husband commits adultery.”
—Jesus Christ
Luke 16:18
Think about it…
At 6:30 p.m. the minister pronounces them husband and wife. After the minister claims that God has joined them together they go on a beautiful honeymoon and according to Jesus they commit adultery? Huh? Yes, that is what Jesus said, after a divorce and remarriage the parties are committing adultery against their spouse which they thought they ditched at the courthouse.
No truly married people commit adultery in their own marriage bed, people in the wrong marriage bed commit adultery. Remarriage puts people in the wrong marriage bed, that is why they are charged with adultery. Why did the minister pronounce them husband and wife if that very night they will be committing adultery I ask you? You can not commit adultery with your own wife!
According to the government papers it can be your husband or your wife but it is not your husband or your wife according to God or Jesus Himself would not be calling your honeymoon adultery!
After they are remarried that is when the adultery kicks in…anyone who divorces their wife and then remarries…commits adultery. God calls married sex PURE but He calls remarried sex ADULTERY, unless your spouse has died. Romans 7:2-3
Are remarried people married according to God? If you say yes, then why is God charging them with adultery? Why doesn’t God see their marriage bed as pure? God calls their remarriage bed…adultery!
“Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral.”
Hebrews 13:4
ONLY divorced people are charged with adultery when they marry.
The question is this…
Did their civil divorce dissolve their original marriage covenant according to Jesus?
If it did, then Jesus has to stop calling their remarriage adultery!
“A wife is married to her husband as long as he lives.”
1 Corinthians 7:39
Marriage = A Covenant Between One Man And One Woman…Until Death
Divorce + Remarriage = Adultery

This is for all those who are straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel! Yes that is exactly what the scripture says but if I read my bible correctly it says that God will forgive you for everything except blasphemy, correct? Now who are we to judge when, where and how a person is forgiven and who are we to question what is and isn’t the will of God concerning another individual does God allow abuse? For all of you saved sisters and brothers who are getting the crap beat out of you every day and hiding black eyes and burses. Because as I recall every brother and sister ran to Ms. Bynum’s defense and then divorce was alright! So are we practicing a double standard? God makes the decisions concerning a sold out life an individual who has decided to let God govern his or her life and order their steps and we have no business or right standing in question of the sovereign God! We are so deep we are drowning in the word of God; remember in all thy getting get an understanding!
Posted by Vanessa on July 17, 2009 at 7:14 pm
I can understand what you are saying and I agree to a point, however leaders are called to a higher standard of living as well as all who proclaim to be connected to our father who is in heaven, we are all leaders.
There were many who did not run to the defense of the man nor the women of God, but to the defense of the gospel. We by pass who really gets hurt confuse and fustrated in the mist of bad decisions and that is the person or people who is looking for help, the unsaved. If we are not in a position to be that example with action, word and character, cloved with a lifestyle we hinder another soul from understanding the awesome love of God, who’s hand will the blood be on. There is always order and structure when it is applied to God’s way of doing a thing, you can tell there was order and structure when he made the heavens and earth and every detail he included. True enough we are not perfect however we must learn from pass and present mistakes, don’t get me wrong I am not talking about the woman of God, whom the man of God married. I am talking about us as ministers we must learn to live a life of prefection and the only way to do that is to live God’s word, being prefected by his word. We are capable of making mistakes or even falling, always remember who is watching, is it that man in a childs body who has been abuse all his childhood growing up with residue or maybe that 15 year old struggling with their identiy , how about that marriage hanging on by the last string, all they need is a little push to slip and leave. We are connect to someone, to bring change and if we are unaware of our action or maybe don’t care we can cause a chain of reaction creating destrction in our pathway of life. I consider myself to be a life changer by example. Don’t get me wrong I have some of the craziest battles in my flesh but God means more, that is why I choose to serve God,he is my everything, he loved me when no one else would, he taught me things that pertains to life and godliness. When I could not forgive he taught me how to forgive. When I was a drug addict he delivered me.when I was homeless he cleaned me up and made me somebody in him, he cared about my well being and I owe him my life. The lover of my soul, and I love God

OMG! EVERYBODY JUST GET OVER IT! IT’S DONE! The best and deepest and most holy of us have all messed up and have made and most of us are still making mistakes. Thank God he covered a lot of our sins,failures and mistakes with his blood. I agree with a lot of what some have said, but WE ARE HUMAN, so if we are as deep and holy and as RELIGIOUS as some are are pretending to be ,you already know the anwer is to , PRAY PRAY AND PRAY SOME MORE FOR GOD TO CHANGE US ALL. Thank God the world doesn’t know about our indiviual secret sins, ungodly thoughts and for some ungodly acts for others to see, hear and judge us. Yes they are in the publlic eye and are held to a higher standard of expectation, but they still are human. Everyone involved needs God to deal with them. Come on Zion , let’s pray.

Stop saying: “every brother and sister…” I am a sister and I didn’t. Yes, God forgives, but shall we continue in sin that grace may abound, God forbid” (Romans 6:1).
The world doesn’t want anything to do with us because we don’t know who we are as believers in Christ.
The Bible speaks of a great fall. We must not keep closing our eyes on wrongness. If we accept anything…. we will fall for everything. “Because of the wickedness of many, the love will wax cold” (Matthew 24:12). The antichrist is here.
Galatians 5 tells us what the fruit of the Spirit is. We can’t do our thing, then jump up and act as if we have power. We cause others to stumble over our selfish desires. We are not speaking of babes in Christ; we are speaking of veterans in Christ.
The world marriages are lasting longer than so call Christ-like believers. The world wants to see, not hear…
Now we as believers are into this: “He without fault cause the first stone.” I hate to tell you, there are many who can cast the stone. All Christians are not like the ones who don’t have a real relationship with their Lord. There are many Christians who I am around that “talk the talk, and walk the walk.”
I am praying for my brothers and sisters who are still playing church. Who want both worlds (the spiritual and the worldly).

To Queen..
There is NO FORGIVENESS OF SIN WITHOUT REPENTANCE PERIOD!! So if one is going to repent of an adulterous MARRIAGE..
REPENTANCE = TURNING AWAY FROM THE SIN THAT YOU ARE IN & NOT COMMITTING IT AGAIN.
I ask you, how can you REPENT from something you NEVER turn away from? How do you turn AWAY FROM AN ADULTEROUS MARRIAGE? You GET OUT OF IT.. or KNOWING before hand that it is adultery, those who LOVE THE MOST HIGH WILL NOT REMARRY & COMMIT ADULTERY!
PERIOD.. If you think that you will get away with willfully sinning or that anyone else will, when you KNOW BETTER and KNOW it is sin.. you make it obvious that you love yourself and your own lusts more than you love the Father. You will not be blessed but cursed and you cannot baboozle or Hoodwink the most high.. Plain and simple. These folks today are idolaters and stand in pulpits of Satan fleecing the simple minded promising blessings they don’t have the authority to give while they mock the Holiness and the word of Ahayah himself
Those who are blind follow the blind and they will all fall in a ditch.. those who are HIS sheep, know, HIS voice and ONLY his voice, will they follow. You will NEVER catch me following man.. Yuk!

Posted by TRACY on August 9, 2009 at 3:10 pm
See, this is the problem with Christians. We get confused and let the world refocus our understanding of the word of God. Why do we call it being judged by another when someone brings to our attention what God states in the bible and it does not coinside with our current situation and/or desires? The word of God is the word of God. We should not get offended because someone informs us that what we are doing is wrong. We have to look out for one another, we are all sinners and will be for the rest of our lives. For example; I have commited sins of the flesh; however if I see one of my brothers or sisters going down that road, I will bring to their attention God’s word pertaining to the situation. Its not to judge, but to hopefully stop the person from commiting that particular sin. We need to get rid of the “who are you to judge” attitude and watch each others back. I am just sick to my stomach over this whole thing in this world. Everyone thinks sins of the spirit( because you cant see them) is okay, but sins of the flesh(because you can see them) are okay.
That is a die from hell!! If you hate someone in your heart, self-righteous, unforgiving, its just as bad in Gods eyes as an adulterer or murdered! We turn our backs on our fellow man everyday and come up with all kinds of excuses to justify our actions. We can’t change God’s laws around to fit our circumstances. It doesnt matter the position a person has, flesh is flesh. A pastor’s sins, a garbage mans sins, same thing! The devil is a liar. I wish I had more time, because I have alot more to say. Everyone have a blessed day!
Posted by TheUltimateJew on August 10, 2009 at 7:52 pm
The Bible is the ultimate judge, and you will usually here the phrase “who are you to judge” from the people who KNOW they’re doing something wrong, and the people who don’t know they really hate God and the bible.
Posted by TheUltimateJew on August 10, 2009 at 6:28 pm
Not true. God forgives sins, but he doesn’t ‘convert’ sin. If something is a sin before forgiveness, how can it NOT be a sin after forgiveness? God can forgive someone for cheating on their spouse, but once they have been forgiven does than now mean they have a green light to CONTINUE cheating on their spouse?
The posters formula is not totally accurate:
Divorce + Remarriage = Adultery (not true, if one spouse is dead)
Divorce + Remarriage + Living Spouse = Adultery & Hell (if not corrected before death comes)
There is not a single verse in the bible that supports remarriage with a living spouse, not anywhere.

Posted by Lee on August 11, 2009 at 7:57 pm
My thing is who are we to judge. It is not our place as christians to judge anyone on what they do. Let God deal with him and his wife to be. It is not our place to criticize what people do. We need to look at our own selves and worry about our own lives and our walk with God. Don’t the bible also say forgive your brother. We are not in no place to tell God what He should do and who He should bless spouses to certain people. God orders our steps, not man! If God said that Christina Glenn is his wife, then I am for it. It is not my place or anyone’s place to judge. I am happy for them! The way I look at the whole situation, people have not forgiven Bishop Weeks for what he has done in his previous marriage with Juanita Bynum. If we can’t forgive, what makes us think that God is going to forgive our sins. God will not forgive our sins until we forgive our brother. Yes, the bible does say about adultery and marriage. I agree with the word of God. All we need to do is pray for them. It is not our place!!!! We need to just leave them alone. If people can’t be happy for them, then they need to keep their mouths off of them. They are still God’s anointed vessels. The bible says touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm. Leave them alone!!
Posted by TheUltimateJew on August 17, 2009 at 10:40 pm
nonsense the bible is the only judge. If one quotes scripture against sin….is that judgment?…..it sure is…but it is GOD’S judgment because he is the author of the book.

You know, my grand mother and late grand father would be the first to tell anyone that if God isn’t in a marriage, its doomed to failure. They both came out of broken marriages. They both were hurt by infidelity and broken promises. Neither one was looking to get married ever again. However, both believe that God brought them together after much prayer. But the Key was prayer. Both felt led of God to remarry. They didn’t go putting up adds in the local news print, or rent out a bill board advertising their singleness, and their desire to meet someone. If God isn’t the focus of your marriage, how can it stand?
Posted by jesusblogger on July 7, 2009 at 6:20 pm
@Dia, not sure I agree with you comments: -
“They both were hurt by infidelity and broken promises. Neither one was looking to get married ever again. However, both believe that God brought them together after much prayer. But the Key was prayer. Both felt led of God to remarry.”
God is not leading people against His word. Also, I thought Thomas Weeks marriage mashed up because he was guilty of physically abusing his wife. I did not realise any infidelity was taking place?
Posted by Dia on July 13, 2009 at 4:42 am
I am not saying that Weeks and Bynam’s marriage was dissolved by anything. I am saying that I don’t believe Weeks prayed about anything to do with his remarriage.
I cannot speak for anyone save my Grandparents on remarriage after divorce. In their case, I do believe that God brought them together. They did not get married until they had both fasted, prayed, and sought their pastors’ counseling on the matter.
I do not hold to the theory that one must return to one’s first spouse to be in the Will of God. I don’t believe that is what the Word of God teaches either.
Posted by esther2v17 on August 7, 2009 at 11:10 am
Dia.. i adisagree with you the Bible CLEARLEY teaches this…..no other marriage can be legal in the eyes of God ( other than fornication/adultery) if you divorce.
Posted by TheUltimateJew on August 17, 2009 at 10:49 pm
Sorry, but if your grandparents were remarried and either had a living spouse, then it was not God who brought them together. Fasting is not going to make God violate his word. It would seem that if their prayer was “should we”, then God most definitely would have said “No, My word says……….”

PamWhiteSide..
That whole “He who is without sin cast the first stone quote” was NEVER SAID by the Moshiach to CONDONE OTHER PEOPLE’S willfiull blatant sin or to sanction disobedience or adultery… He said it to the Pharisees, who made the laws of YHWH ineffective by subverting them with their OWN laws and rules & regulations ( which you will find in Judaism’s Talmud), called the Traditions of the Elders. They never kept the laws of YHWH as given to Moshe ANYWAY.. so who WERE they to call for the woman (ONLY) who was caught in adultery to be stoned? That was a penalty COMMANDED by the most high for the sin of adultery, let me remind you. Mercy was granted to her and she was told to repent and SIN NO MORE.
Now on to the present adulterers at hand.. HE HAS TWO FORMER WIVES.. the last one he had (Bynum) DID NOT BELONG TO HIM. as he was still bound according to the Laws of marriage to his first wife. Civil courts have no juristiction to break or nullify the laws of the most high & if you study the teachings of Yahushua, he even says, I came NOT TO DO AWAY WITH THE LAW, but to fulfill it. Fulfilling cannot be ending it.. he just told you he DIDN’T come to end it. So knowing YHWH HATES DIVORCE.. believe me, Weeks knew it the first time.. he DOES IT ANYWAY then marries another man’s wife ( JUANITA) and then after that adulterous relationship ends, he goes on and is now set to marry yet ANOTHER MAN’S WIFE!!???
IF THE MESSIAH AIN’T TOO SHY TO CALL IT A HOT SINNER MESS, neither should any of us. And I will vomit if I continue to hear the unlearned throw that scripture around and use it out of context to justify RANK, STANK FUNKY AND UNREPENTANT SIN like it ain’t what it is.. and still send money to these disgraceful fools and call them “The ManD and WomanD of Gawd”!!
I can see that he spoke correctly wnen he told his disciples that Broad is the way to destruction and MANY will go that route, following after the teachings of men that excuse sin, rather than following the words that came out of his very mouth. Doing what is comfortable for ourselves won’t bring us any blessing in the end anyway. Neither will siding with SIN= transgression of the law.

Wow, do people not read their bibles anymore??? How anyone here or elsewhere can approve of such behaviour from those who PROFESS to know Jesus is beyond me. Mr. (and he does not qualify to be called Bishop) Weeks is an adulterer. His marriage is not legitimate in God’s eyes according to GOD’S Word……….and THAT is how we are to judge righteously—not by how we “feel”, or how much we like someone, etc. I am amazed how many times I hear professed Christians tells others not to “judge” when it regards open/blatant sin that is unrepentant. We ARE called to judge—those who profess to be believers (see I Cor. 5). Who we are called NOT to judge is the UNSAVED, though it seems many times now we are lambasting them for doing what comes natural(sin) in a fallen state. However, people want to walk on pins and needles when it comes to a person who labels themself brother/sister but is in rebellion/sin. As Jesus has said, the blind will lead the blind right into a ditch. It is very sad to me that people seem to want to follow other people rather than Jesus……………but the Word of God has spoken and already told us of these things………………

God came that we might have life and that more abundantly so what happened to compassion? We cannot be so hard on our sisters and brothers that we make repentance and the saving grace of Jesus, you know the one who died for you and me; unavailable to our own brothers and sisters remember Peter who denied Christ and still was redeemed! Keep in mind that we all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God! Reading the Bible is not a prerequisite or exemption for living the things in the Word of God that you should have learned! As we learn the personality of God we should change and become more like Him!
Be careful how you accuse persons of not knowing God remember those that you may think will not make it in will be there and those that you think will make it will lift up their eyes in Hell! Study!
2 Thessalonians 2:7-10: 7For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
8And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
9Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
10And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

I believe the word she should be connect to a preacher life like his or her arm is to the body.

I am told that the church is the hospital, there are sick people in the hospital., we must keep that, in mind ,never forget God is able to restore to heal and deliever. Someone said if you want to be healed!! funny thing you can let an illness go for a long time unaware of it or maybe ignore the syptoms, later becoming a problem. Recovery is not imposible just may take a little longer than expected, some spiritual shock treatments or maybe a little holy ghost chemo.
When I was a drug addict I thought I could stop at anytime I wanted, found out later I couldn’t. I had to suffer a little while and somewhere in the future God completely delivered me when I was ready for the change, not only from drug but also from my backsliding ways. I was not walking with God while on drugs, I was brought up in the church I had a lot of issue while in the church no one understood those issues as with so many people who were church kids you know how that work everything was covered up if a child was been abuse in the home or at church.

Folks listen, God said whoremongers and adulterers he will judge. Let him do his job. If you’ve never been married you, must understand there are 3 sides ,hers, his, and the truth. Only God knows the real truth. Some people are toxic together. In a marriage if no one is willing to submit to God’s order there will inevitably be a problem. Now ,God hates divorce, but it happens. I ‘d rather someone marry , than get caught in sexual misconduct, because if you don’t have the gift of singleness there will be a flesh issue somewhere down the road . We have to pray for ourselves and our brothers and sisters, because at the end of the day we are all human, capable of mistakes,bad judgement and any other human fraility. That’s why God declares he remembers our flesh, he remembers we are dust. No one can cast a stone. When our hearts are changed our behavior will change.
The only sin you can’t be forgiven for is blasphemy. Divorce is forgiveable. Let’s lift one another up in prayer, so that what the unbelievers see among the Church world is indeed a reflection of God’s Glory shining brilliantly in us.
Posted by TheUltimateJew on August 17, 2009 at 8:56 pm
OMG! “The gift of singleness?” you are kidding right? The issue is not DIVORCE it is REMARRIAGE with a living spouse. The bible is completely clear on the subject of divorce and remarriage. In addition, God does not CONVERT a sin. If lying is a sin before forgiveness, then it is a sin after God forgives a lie. If an unscriptural marriage is a sin before god forgives the marriage, it is still an unscriptural marriage and still a sin AFTER God forgives. Sorry, but the excuse that since one has not been endowed with “The Gift of Singleness “now permits one to remarry (with a living spouse) will only endow one with the gift of eternal damnation. Don’t be party to a lie, leave your personal opinions out of it and go with the scriptures.

People are leaving the church to find God because there seems to be such a low tolerance for truth these days. We no longer hold our leaders to a high standard in the name of not judging. We need to get back to the Bible and stop allowing “the way that seemeth right” to fuel us into our own personal doctrines. People are led by their lusts and emotions which leads to deception. We need a modern day Paul to set the church straight!

You are so right on folks leaving the churches to find God.. bur THE LAST THING WE NEED IS PAUL!! His teachings are part of the problem.. Eventually ALL the churches in Asia turned away from him.. i won’t go into a long thing about that here, but the BIGGEST PROBLEM is that folks are following Paul and Bishop so and so. .WE NEED YHWH and the Spirit of Truth, which will teach us and lead and guide us into all truth.. We need to SPECIFICALLY AND EXPRESSLY study the WORDS that came out of the mouth of Yahushua. he said ..”My sheep know my voice and the voice of ANOTHER they will not follow”.. but today, i don’t see many following HIS voice, but the voices of preachers, profits and profitesses.. yes I meant it that way.
They follow what feels good, is convenient and does not require holiness or truth.. Sad, but those are the days we are living in.. Too many lies being preached from the pulpits. When you want to hear truth, its hard to tolerate much of what is in these churches today.. New Age-ism, Kabbalah, worship of Judaism, all kind of mess. He will show you his word and teach you.. But you have to seek the truth.

You need to read my blog again because I really think that you misunderstood what I was saying, I absolutely follow the teachings of Paul he was an Apostle of the Jesus Christ!!!
Posted by KeeptheLaw on July 24, 2009 at 1:57 pm
I am sure you do follow Paul.. plenty do.. i do not. I follow Yahushua’ s teachings and the Law. They are consistent. He endorsed the Law. .. Sin is transgression of the Law.
He came to save his people from their sins ( TRANSGRESSIONS OF THE LAW).. he blatantly endorsed it and said that he did NOT come to do away with it.. He said those who did not keep it and taught others to do the same would be LEAST in the Kingdom.
There are so many times where Paul speaks of the Law being a curse.. that is a lie. If you study the law the only curse was for NOT keeping it. Keeping it was guaranteed to bring abundant blessings. All those blessings they attach to paying your tithes are actually attached to keeping the eternal covenant.
I am aware that most who call themselves Christians DO follow Paul., But the Messiah did NOT tell us to follow Paul.. we are to follow HIM.
;p
Posted by nikkele on July 25, 2009 at 7:08 am
Correct, we are to follow Christ, and the reason we know to do that is because God used men to transmit His message to us, men like Moses who gave us the law, and Paul who extended Jesus’ message of grace. Jesus was the Word, or the LAW, made flesh. By adhering to his teachings, we fulfill the law. If we still adhere to Mosaic and Levittical Law, then what was the purpose of the Messiah? I say this with all due respect, because after carefully reading your responses, I feel that you are negating your own arguments.
Posted by nikkele on July 25, 2009 at 7:16 am
Following His voice does not mean ignoring vessels that God uses to communicate His teachings. Jesus endorsed John the Baptist, who was a preacher. So, it is safe to say that the Messiah does not have a problem with using preachers and teachers to communicate the truth. Putting ourselves on spiritual islands opens the door for a rebellious and unteachable spirit. Ultimately it is up to us to understand the Bible enough to discern whether or not a message a preacher gives aligns with what is true or if he or she is conjuring their own pet doctrines. If so, we have the responsibility to remove ourselves from the presence of that false teacher.

Now you just said a mouthful. Food for thought!
Posted by Shawn on July 15, 2009 at 9:04 am
Hi everyone I think that you all have some very interesting points!! I know that God will judge every man not only for what he did do but also for what he did not do. The Lord has called us to be the salt of the earth and if we loose our purpose then we are good for nothing! The reason I am mentioning this is because it is time out for excuses and for justification, we have a responsibility as the body of Christ, we are supposed to be an example to the world and so far this is not the case. The book of Joel talks about what God is going to do in the last days, and I believe that the end time is now, God is raising up a radical remnant of people who will speak the truth and not a lie. The fact of the matter is that we as saints are called to hold one another accountable. The bible said that in the days of Paul the apostles ruled the church with an iron fist, meaning zero tolerance for sin; and because of that the manifestation of God’s presences was evident in the lives Paul, Peter and others who followed Christ. Just their very shadows brought healing to others, but the bible says in Joel that the latter shall be greater than the first; and Jesus said that we would do greater things than He did. Do we not believe God for His word, apparently not because we are still tolerating sin and allowing it to water down the word of God and taint our homes and our relationships.
For the person who said he who cast the first stone, that is true but I believe that this scripture applies to self-righteous people who look to judge the unsaved. The bible tells us as believers to try the spirit by the spirit and to judge people by the fruit that they bare. If you will remember Paul threw a man and his mother out of the church because they chose not to repent for their evil doings after being given many opportunities to do so. The point of the matter is that sin is like a cancer, if you allow it to stay it will infect the whole body and eventually sooner than later the body will in fact die.
I am 34 years old and have been married for almost 15 years, I will be the first one to say that marriage is not easy, there have been many times that my husband and I tried to and wanted to give up. But because we both feared God and trusted Him, He kept us together!!! We both committed adultery, were hurt by one another emotionally, mentally and physically neither of us believed that we could make it, BUT GOD!!!! GOD can do anything but fail, GOD also had people placed in our lives that did not tell us what we wanted to hear but what we needed to hear; there is that word again, accountability. Listen no marriage is perfect, there are things that will get under our skin but we must esteem one another higher than we esteem ourselves, and when we do this we will alway overshadow all of the negative. When this happens all of the negative things that once looked so big will begin to look very insignificant.
May God Bless The Readers of This Blog,
Shawn

Well the bible did say in the last days “They did eat, they drank, they married wives.” Luke 17 verse 27
That simply means that they marry someone who was already a wife, and also they have more than one wife who they promise till death do we part. HOW can we proclaim God among the Godless when we do not obey God’s words ourselves?
Well if God said it it must come to past.

Isn’t it funny that everyone is pointing the finger at Weeks and calling him an abuser and an adulterer. But if Juanita is his second wife, would that not classify her as an adulterer also according to your statements? Some of you need to stop putting pastors, preachers and teachers in such high positions in your minds so that when they don’t measure up, we won’t find you sitting in the judgement seat as many of you are.
Posted by Shawn on July 23, 2009 at 4:11 am
You are totally incorrect, the bible says that in the last days the spirit of deception would come and that many would believe the lie, are you that one? Pastors, teachers and preachers are held at a higher standard than others because they are supposed to know the word of God, and when they mislead God’s sheep the bible says that even their punishment will be greater. So I do not think that people are expecting to much of people in leadership positions, people are expecting to see the Christ in their leaders. If leaders are not supposed to live by a higher standard, then why would God have given them to us? The problem is that too many people like you continue to make excuses like this, the bible says, “and the truth shall make you free”.

This is truly media circus take-out.☺ I can not help but laugh at the idiocy. I love it! I just love it! This MAN-notice I didnt say “man of God” and WOMAN-same who have “accepted a PUBLIC calling on their lives” and KNOW they live in the public eye allow themselves to have their ministry questioned by their humanistic EVIDENTLY sinful (or maybe not) actions and then I watch and read as it divides the “church”-that would be every “christian” with an opinion. Some preach that they should stop the madness, some preach forgiveness. And who knows? Maybe both sides are right…but what’s even more hilarious to me is how the rest of the viewers see “us” as “christians” in this fiasco. You KNOW we must look good to the rest of the world that we should be concentrating our efforts to bring to Christ. Nope…Instead, we quibble about if these two people should or should not be married. I tell ya…and some of you are sure to take offense but fortunately for my beliefs, I dont care…dont wonder why the world is going to hell on a scholarship! “Weeeee”, my dears, are the teachers! Now pat yourself on the back with that right hand of fellowship that you’re slapping each other with.
Posted by Vanessa on July 17, 2009 at 9:01 pm
I do understand what you feel it is bad and beyond. If you are a christian our job is to seek God for his people. We are under a heavy attack we can not fight against each other with words of nagativity but with prayer the bible states that prayer is our most powerful weapon. The bible let us know that our warfare is not with each other it is with spiritual wickness in high places it is the attack of the mind everything originate in the mind and later plays out in the boby. WE don’t agree with the sin but we do pray for the sinner or the person caught up in sin. When God ask Cain where is your brother Cain replyed am I my brothers keeper God said Ables blood crys up from the ground. When you are spiritally dead life crys out for help and we are the helpers somebody prayed for me.

The world is looking for someone who is actually living what the bible is teaching, I am afraid for the lost because there is a trust issue here. We as ministers, like it or not we are under a microscope and the world is watching us to show them God. When the unchurch comes in giving their lives over to the awsome God that made us, they will put the church to shame, they will sale out to God, seeing the need in our communities and reaching out, not just across the sea but here in America. I believe we have been blinded by fame and money forgetting the lost,the hunger, necked, and homeless just to name a few. We are put on this earth with purpose, what is happening when the devil is stronger than those who claim to be demon chasers, weapon carriers, warriors for christ. If this is all we have to show the world this is scary. Now is the time for the true worshippers, go into the hedges and the byways and compel them to come, the work I do greater will you be able to,
My husband divoice me some 14 years ago and people can not believe I am allowing God to keep me until he send the right man my way. I don’t have sex because without marriage it is a sin and I don’t sleep with my ex. I want to win souls over to the kingdom of God. I living a life for God is my life.

Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? Do we live an ungodly live style because we have an advocate with the father and we know he forgives. Do we ever grow up or become prefected in areas in our life or do we live on milk until the day of our death. Do we not owe God or do we feel he owes us, even thou he has given his life for our salvation. If he has repented it is between him and God not him and the world. However we are watching and many are watching waiting to see what will happen next. We must keep in mind it is not about us it is about those who are insearch of God and don’t know it.

Posted by A concerned viewer on July 17, 2009 at 8:10 pm
The first and foremost comment is to walk in love toward others. Do you mean to say that even it was the former Mrs. Weeks who asked for divorce (rather than her then husband) that this brother is consigned to a life of celibacy?–did not the same apostle Paul say it is better to marry than to burn? Those of you who are saying that that this man should remain unmarried–are you unmarried and doing without the comforts of conjugal love yourselves? Or are you perhaps failing to walk charitably toward others? The only thing I question is whether or not it is appropriate for this brother to retain the title of “bishop”. It is not his fault that his previous wife wanted a divorce. If the Lord gave him permission to marry that is between him and the Lord–if the Lord did not give him permission to marry –that is between him and the Lord. This is a relatively young man and I do not think it is charitable to expect him to live the rest of his life celibate. He should prayerfully consider however, whether or not it is scriptural to retain the office of “bishop”. May the good Lord have mercy upon all of us in our weaknesses (because we all have them). May we all walk in love towards others–which is the first law of faith –which worketh by love.

Posted by J Denise R on August 10, 2009 at 4:19 am
I agree with your opinion. No one know what go on behind close doors. You don’t really get to know someone until you live with them. The word of God says if the unbelieving depart let them we are not bound. You cant make anyone stay together if they the want to. God do not go against our wills. He is a forgiving God and he will have mercy on whomever He will. We are not under the law, but under grace. So what if this is his 3rd marriage. You were not there in the first 2. I agree that God does hates divorce, but by the hardness of our hearts He allows it. I personal want to see marriage make it, and not just make it but happy, wholesome, loving and fulfilling as well. I have been married 3 times also. The first time I was right out of high school and had a baby. I stay married for 7 years. He wanted the other woman more than he wanted his family. I remarried at the age of 25 and stayed married for 14 together 16 and went through pure H__L and my children paid the price for trying to stay in it for the sake of the marriage, and because I knew God hated divorce. We end of divorcing anyway because he walked out on me for the last and final time. I didn’t take him back and I moved on. I am now in a marriage that is just as emotionally painful as the last one. I mess up because i should of never married him. It is a difference in being good verse being Godly. Just because someone know who God is doesn’t mean that they know God! Now he want’s out of this marriage because he is insecure in who he is and i am very strong minded and independent. I don’t have problem with submissive, but i do have a problem with you trying to control me because you have trust issues and unforgiveness in your heart. He wants to leave, so im letting him. Does that means me staying single for the rest of my life, No! I desire to be marry and will marry again. This time I will make sure the Know Jesus Christ as their Lord and personal Savior and that they are bearing fruit! At first I was ashame getting married the 3 time because i knew people would judge me without knowing the truth about me or my situation. I was reminded of the Woman at the well who have 5 husbands and the one she was with was not her husband. Jesus will quench my thrist and He will forgive if i marry for the 4th time! Am i happy about it? No, but I will not be condemn by people.

I just hope that they both have prayed about this and that it is the will of God. I don’t think God wants either of them to remain without a spouse. It is difficult being unmarried and staying chaste and within the will of God. I do agree with the posted that said perhaps he should reconsider the title of bishop. I lift them up and I also lift up Juanita Bynum as well. She seens to be making a great comeback. Guys lets be a little more gracious and merciful of others. Love, Dee

Hot mess! This woman has arleady been married as well! She also has a child she doesn’t even speak about on her webpage. She was married to a pastor here in Greensboro NC and now she is moving up…I guess. To another pastor with more money. Things like this makes it hard to get people into some churches. How can you believe what they are preaching when they aren’t living right themselves. Like my pastor said…..When you try to cover your head….your feet comes out! They both have to answer to God one day.
Be blessed
Posted by speaktomelord on August 24, 2009 at 3:21 am
Absolutely, they both have to answer to God as individuals.
As far as believing preachers, you must get into the word for the devil himself knows the word. That is why Hosea said that my people will parish for lack of knowledge. Not school book knowledge, but the knowledge and wisdom(Gods wisdom) of the WORD.
Let the people of God say amen!
Posted by Freya S. Williams on July 21, 2009 at 10:07 pm
All I can say is we need to pray for healing. Sometimes we need to wait and let God process our mess before we jump back into something else. Let God do His complete work in us so He can get the glory out of it. My prayer is that God’s folks won’t get confused. God has me in a holding pattern concerning televangelists. We have gotten the message twisted. We are doing it our way and have invented a new way instead of doing it God’s way. Let’s be careful church and stay connected to God. We all fall down but we need to let God help us up and not help ourselves. The devil wants to deceive God’s people. Be careful of wolves in sheep’s clothing. If we are not prayed up, we can all be wolves. Watch and pray!
I have gone to many conferences including the Teach Me How to Love You. With all the mess that has been exposed within the last few years, God is calling us back to Him. We need to get our eyes back on Him because man is still flesh and subject to fail. We have to be there to pray and pick them up if they fall. We have to be there to keep them from falling if they will accept it.
Pray for the church. Pray for the lost. Pray for healing in the body of Christ. Just Pray!

Just for the record, this is his THIRD MARRIAGE.
Posted by Evangelist Betty Watson on July 23, 2009 at 6:26 am
Hi Bishop Weeks,
I am surprised in your decision to remarry. As a preacher of the Gospel I want to ask you the question do you really believe what the Bible says? According to the Word of God you are not free to marry unless fornication has taken place by your exwife (the first one). Yes, the first wife is the only marriage that is true unless she committed adultry. You better repent and truly get saved. If you choose to be divorced you must stay single until the death of your first wife. Read your word and believe what God is saying toward marriage.
Posted by KeeptheLaw on July 24, 2009 at 1:50 pm
Evangelist Betty, If you read the teaching of Yahushua regarding divorce.. HE NEVER GIVES PERMISSION TO REMARRY.. not even when the other party has committed adultery. You are bound to your spouse until DEATH.. period. That is why the law for those caught in adultery was the death penalty.
Notice when he said he who puts his wife away, except for fornecation, causes her to commit adultery (when she marries another).. he was NOT given permission to remarry. He was stating that by divorcing your spouse, YOU cause them to commit adultery when they marry again.. BECAUSE MARRIAGE IS BINDING FOR LIFE. The except for the cause of fornecation clause was simply making it clear that if you were putting your spouse away because of FORNECATION ( illicit sexual conduct) THEY CAUSED THE ADULTERY.. it still never gives permission for remarriage. If they had not committed adultery ( The ANY caase the Pharisees tried to trap him with ), but YOU put them away, now YOU are the CAUSE of adultery by putting them away and essentially driving them into the arms of another..
Any relationship with ANY one OTHER than your spouse is adultery as long as your spouse is LIVING. According to the law of the most high , as taught by Yahushua, it is
1.Better not to make a vow, than to make one and not keep it ( marriage here) which is WHY the disciples said…”If THAT be the case, it is better for a man not to marry”.
2. Marriage is for LIfe.. NOTICE everyone vowing til’ death do us part… but they part when they don’t want to work it out.. throwing THAT vow in the garbage.. .to keep only unto thee.. BUT they go on and give what was vowed to THE first spouse to the NEXT adulterous one.
3. No court can undo what is bound in heaven. That is a covenant. Covenants cannot be broken.
Weeks & Bynum’s marriage was an adulterous one according to scripture. His first wife is still living.
So this is adulterous affair number 2…at least as far as we know. Such a disgrace… If I marry, it will only be ONCE unless I become a widow. One also cannot repent of an adulterous or illegal marriage by staying in it either, can they? Nope.
Shalom.
Posted by J Denise R on August 10, 2009 at 4:38 am
If you never been married, how would you know what you would do. Never say what you wouldn’t do. Everyone’s situation is different. Everyone’s TESTimony is different. Until you been tried and tested you dont know what you would do in the middle of the test. You just know what you should do, and you will not know until you have been put in the fire!

TO ALL OF THE WEEKS & GLEN SUPPORTERS OF THIS SO CALLED GODLY UNION.
I dont know much about Miss Glen, but I have seen her web-site and saw that she has more pictures( around 40 in all) and information about her than she does about Jesus Christ. In fact I don’t think she even gave Jesus a shout out on her web-site.
Thomas Weeks is a sad person indeed.
The ink was not even dry from his 2nd marriage before he started looking for another wife. Didn’t he learn his lesson from his first TWO marriages?
He wants so badly to be a gospel super star, he reminds me of a child saying to his parents ” Look at me, look at me”
What he fails to realize is that people respect Godly behavior more than self publisizing statements or actions. I would think any NORMAL church leader that was caught in such a public and shameful crime would be seeking God for constant wisdom and guidence insteed of seeking yet ANOTHER WIFE (his third)
STOP, with the “why are we judging” comments until you have read Job, 1st & 2nd Timothy.
STOP, with the “why cant we just be happy for them”. Weeks had a very public and inbarasing break up with Juanita Bynum. He had most peoples attention soon after the beating of Bynum, that would have been the perfect time to admit fault, repent and become and advocate against domestic violence.
But Weeks would rather promote his search for a wife, than acknowledge fault
Weeks would rather promote his pending wedding than the promote the gospel.
You don’t have to be a Prophet to see this could end badly for both of them (AGAIN)

Just one quick question for all you bible scholars who keep referring to this man as Bishop. According to my bible, a Bishop must be blameless (not easily to be blamed for stuff like abuse or adultery) and of ONE (not 2 or 3) wife. Bottom line is that they make it extremely difficult to go out & reach souls and teach about sanctification (bein set apart)when they are conducting themselves like the unredeemed on Friday & then trying to stand in the pulpit and preach deliverance on sunday.

Judging a person based on their behavior is fair game.

1. Preaching “Teach me how to love you” to people about keeping thier marriage together while you and your wife were separated is false representation.
2. Putting your personal business out in the street thru an internet show so that you can get yet ANOTHER WIFE means you seek your own fame. above everything else.
3. Beating a woman in the parking lot like she stole something and kicking her in the most private areas makes you a punk.
4. Working on your THIRD MARRIAGE (after two very short ones) and set to start a third while the ink is still wet on the last divorce, means you really have no business rushing into marriage with anyone, disqualifies you from being a bishop, and proves your a fool.
We can judge.

So I guess Bishop Weeks is having a seminar called You Can Begin Again. I guess you can begin again…and again… and again. You couldn’t pay me to attend his church. He seems to have a faithful following despite the parking lot beatdown and being married again for the 3rd time. *RME* Also makes me wonder the type of woman this 3rd wife is. With his reputation, he’s got a huge “stay away” stamp of his forehead.
People like him truly disgust me.

Hmmm. Lets get this Judgement stuff straight. Was Jesus Judgeing when he told the woman at the well “The husband she was with was not hers!” She had been married numerous occasions. When he told the Aldulterous woman who was almost stoned…go and sin NO MORE!! UNLESS SOMETHING WORSE WILL HAPPEN TO YOU!! What is worse than stoning….TRY GOING TO HELL!!
Jesus gave one definition for divorce! NO REMARRIAGE while the first spouce lives!! Just becuase some people are BEING HONEST ISN”T JUDGEING…ITS TRUTH..
If a student is cutting class and not doing homework is a fellow student a judger because he says,”If you keep this up you will stay back!” Of course not he is saying where the course of your actions will take you. This is what all 12 apostles preached. Now today if you say what the course of your actions will lead you, you are judgeing??
Then Jesus and all 12 Apostles were judgers!!!! If you went against scripture they told you where the course of your actions would lead you!! UNLESS YOU REPENT AND COMPLETELY TURNED AWAY FROM WHAT YOU WERE DOING!! CAn a HOOKER BE SAVED AND THEN GO TURN A TRICK?? THEN CAN YOU LAY WITH A WOMEN GOD SAYS ISN”T YOUR WIFE AND KEEP LAYING WITH HER!!?? You guys are funny…HOPE YOU CAN LAUGH WHEN WE LEAVE THIS EARTH!

I can not believe this. I watched that litte girl grow up as a profitess and local tv minister in Greensboro, NC. I know her entire family. I thought she was married to another little boy that she grew up and had a show together. Now this I am confused. I hope he don’t beat her to a pulp like ms bynum. that girl is really really young like under 25 I think.
WOW

wow this is sad. Can we not comprehend the word of God. Why are the people following a guy that call himself a bishop with his 3rd wife. Do we not care what the word say?
This young lady looks young enuff to be my son age. Plus both haven’t had enuff time to heal from a brutal marriage. The Body of Christ is at it’s lowest state. But I still look to JESUS because he is the Author and finish of my Faith.

Qualifications of bishops(For Bishop’s Charge) I Timothy 3: 1-7 Titus 1:7
Qualifications of deacons(For Deacons) I Timothy 3: 8-13 Acts of the Apostles 6:3-6
I Corinthians 7
And when the Lord shall come He shall say unto you, well done, thou good and faithful servant, thou hast been faithful over a few things. I will make thee ruler over many things.
God is the Word and the Word is God.
We will allow the other bishops, evangalist, elders and deacons to speak to them if it is Gods will.
The rest of the saints shall pray. Amen! Can the people of God say Amen.
Their are demons in high places…..
II Corinthians 10: 1-7
Read for yourselves KJV or AMP.
Please saints…if you have been save…speak thou as though they were.
The word(God) says touch not my anointed and do my prophets no harm(verbal, physical, etc).
There is no comparison between the to women of God. The anointing that is on JB is powerful. There is know other like it. Tell the truth shame the devil. Christina Glenn has her own.
May God Bless you all and may He keep you, and I hope He is not disappointed in his children. Amen. and Amen.

I am so inspired with the postings from bloggers like Lorna,Cindy,Tracy, esther 2 vs17,Jesus blogger, keep it real, NC and many more for preaching and teaching the pure word of God. It is very rare in the times we are living it to hear the truth as itiching ears are very tempting nowadays. I will personally pray for you brethren so that the Lord may annoint you to preach this truth in the generation we are living in as such truth you are teaching is very rare to find especially here in the USA. You would really be amazed of how other countries hold christians in America to a higher standard because it is believed that the USA is a christian nation and Christian TV channels have also played a great role. I have heard some people in other countries who have said that if such and such a preacher divorced why can’t they also divorce. I will earnestly pray for you bloggers who have stood and contended for the truth for God the Father to use you and annoint you with the Holy Spirit through Jesus to mightily preach the word of truth to the whole world with power and in demonstration of the Holy Spirit and for first marriages to be healed and restored . Marriage is not for the faint hearted 1 cor 7 :28 and Matthew 19:9 – 11. God bless you and may he bless the USA.

Honestly the truth is that some of us are really concerned about the Body of Christ and particularly leadership. The Bible is clear that those who preach and teach will be judge in a stricter fashion.
None of us are perfect but leadership is held to a higher standard.

The article sounds like alot of judgement and hate to me. Just because the writer does not agree with his lifestyle does not mean that he can spew judgement, that is reserved for God and God alone!
Now let’s talk about the comparison of Bynum and Glenn. Have you ever been to a penicostal church? Does not sound like it. Bynum preaches like the mothers before her and so does Glenn along with the rest of women preacher’s in the Church of God in Christ denomination and Penicostal movement. So yeah, it’s true, they do preach alike.
Also, it seems like Weeks is strongly in touch with his desires and he still desires a wife that he can grow with in ministry. God does not want anyone in an abusive relationship. Can we applaud them (Weeks & Bynum) for making a hard decision? Pray that God heals them and helps them move on with their lives. There are only 3 that know what really happened on that dreadful night and in their marraige as a whole. We are going by what we have read and heard, not by witnessing it ourselves.
This Article and a few of the comments made me dislike being a Christian for a moment. There is so much hate and division between us based on intepretation. We should come together and pray for our brothe in Christ, not just damn him to Hell. What if I was a baby Christian that had been through a divorce and remarried. What impression would I have of Christianity from this post? SELAH.
At this point you must know that I am not a FUNDAMENTALIST Christian, and I embrace all through love, understanding and forgiveness.

If you were a baby Christian and had just been through a divorce and remarried.
I would understand because YOUR NOT LEADING A CHURCH.
Week, Tommy is a leader who can’t seem to get his life together in ANY aspect. Church leaders aren’t perfect, but I do expect them to:
not beat their wives
stay out of jail
admit fault
not to create T.V. Shows about their search for a bride
These are just a few things I would expect from church leader. Weeks seems to be following the path of gansta rappers.
