T.D. Jakes Trending For Unsubstantiated ‘Gay Intercourse’ Rumors
The Potters House megachurch Bishop T.D. Jakes is trending on social media after a user blew up a TikTok post alleging he engaged in gay intercourse with men at music mogul Diddy’s (Sean Combs, aka Puff Daddy) parties.
Diddy is presently embroiled in a series of lawsuits over allegations he sexually abused several women who consequently sued him. Notably, one of these women is singer Cassie Ventura, who was signed on to his record label and dated him for a decade. She alleged he raped her and made her have sex with other men while he filmed.
X (formerly Twitter) user MYEi$HiA highlighted claims that Cassie handed over evidence of Diddy’s crimes to the FBI, which includes tapes of his wild parties and the burner phone of Kim Porter, one of Diddy’s ex-girlfriends with whom he has four children and who has since passed away.
Part of the evidence that was supposedly handed over implicated Diddy’s close friend and business partner, TD Jakes, claiming that “multiple male escorts corroborated the fact that TD Jakes has slept with multiple men at Diddy’s parties and aboard”
While these claims are completely unsubstantiated, the initial post received nearly 5 million views since late last night and has been retweeted 8000 times, prompting thousands of people to joke and comment on the speculative rumors.
While I have zero respect for Jakes’ teachings, I pray these accusations are false. The contemporary American church has already provided more than enough fodder for atheists/agnostics.
“implicated Diddy’s close friend and business partner, TD Jakes”
I guess TD Jakes skipped these verses when he studied God word and twisted scripture into whatever form of christianity he thinks he believes in.
Eph 5: 1-7
1 Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. 2 And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.3 But sexual immorality and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is proper among saints. 4 Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving. 5 For you may be sure of this, that everyone who is sexually immoral or impure, or who is covetous (that is, an idolater), has no inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God. 6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. 7 Therefore do not become partners with them;
