Juanita Bynum husband Bishop Thomas Weeks

Juanita Bynum the evangelical preacher has been badly beaten by her husband Bishop Thomas Weeks while in a parking lot in an Atlanta hotel. The attack on Juanita Bynum was very brutal; the bestselling author was left battered and covered in bruises.

Juanita Bynum was famous for her sermons that were, let’s face it very frank and let’s not forget fiery, her main focus at these sermons were to do with empowerment and how to make your relationship work. Bynum and her husband Thomas Weeks were apart at the time, but decided to meet up at the Renaissance Concourse Hotel, in the hope of working out their problems.

The at about 4 a.m both Juanita Bynum and Thomas Weeks were seen fighting, at which point a hotel bellman had to rush over to the parking lot and pull Thomas Weeks off his wife. The first Officer on the scene Ronald Campbell had said that Bynum was bruised and battered, her neck was all purple as well as her torso. As yet no charges have been made against Bishop Thomas Weeks.

    I pray that God will give them peace in the midst of the storm. No matter what the devil says, God still has His Anointing up on their lives. (May God Bless Them).

    You really should watch what you say about them because even though they had a down moment they’re still God’s Anointed. The Bible says in,

    Galatians 6:1-3 1. Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
    2. Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.
    3. For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself.

    The report you’ve published is hyperbole and irresponsible. You could’ve read the AP and other truthful reports online, to more accurately report the truth. Instead you chose to exaggerate the reports and inflame readers. Your reporting is a disappointment.

  • Gloria Sharp

    LaKisha in the hood got beat down last night also, and don’t forget Patty Ann in the trailer park who received stitches for the 3rd time. ABUSE is awful and no one has the right to beat or hit. A man of God should be able to practice one of the fruits of the spirit, SELF-CONTROL. Juanita isn’t(if she did)the first person to call him an inappropriate name. People spoke ill of him long before he married Juanita; did he BEAT them down? Prayer is the answer and God can do whatever we need or want; but we must want it to ask for it. I can’t ask for your deliverance for you. We all must see Him for ourself. Bishop has to want help.

  • Beverly Williams

    We need to stop putting PREACHER’S On High pedestal’s and when they fall off we don’t know what to do. PREACHER’S are human too and they sometimes fall short.

  • http://beating vera

    being a batter woman myself,I know what is to be battered.
    In any situtation you just stay in the marriage because
    of the apperance of a happy marrigae. God gives us signs
    of any kind of abusiveness before we marry, we just ignore the signs. Out of loneliness we sometimes make wrong decisions. But God is not a state of confusion,we must learn that,through our growing relationship with him. So we must pray and forgive,meaning to pray for husband not judging him unless we be judged.

    This is the work of the enemy, God please lay your hands on them, cover them, and guide them through this time. This is a test for the testimony that the Lord is going to put in them. I know that once the storm has passed there is going to be a POWERFUL WORD that will be delivered. Thank you lord, as we praise you and give you glory during the storm, Thank you in advance for the powerful word that you are placing in their bellies as we speak, you are worthy and we love you father. God Bless the Weeks family through this time.

  • Ellen Durrett

    So far Deborah I have not found any article any diffrent than the one I have read above. They all say the same thing. If there is any diffrent please let me know. It is hard to say that this story is wrong when all other sites basically are saying the same thing. For the Pastor’s comment, yes spiritually people do have down falls also, but I do not think it is it makes what he did any diffent than a nonspiritual man. What he did was wrong. No one has said anything awful abouth the man…or the woman. Their buisness are now told to everyone. Don’t we know wrong from right? Is so wrong to know when someone is in fault reguardless of there spiritual beleifs? The only one he needs to answer to is God. For a Bishop to beat his wife is just unheard of. It seems everyone so far is angry at this article. Why? All articles online seem to say the same thing. I just hope Juanita will be okay.

  • Minister Damien S. Davis

    I can and will no longer support Bishop Thomas Weeks III,until there is a pulblic apology……………..As a leader he owe his followers that,because he was an inspiration to us.It is time for the church to stop pacifying this type of none sense in church! What is the church coming to? If the world cant look to us as examples or for an answer,then who do they turn to? ‘Cause the is begining tolook and act like the world!….Hmmmmmmm! Let’s get it together saints,Jesus will be back! And what will we say then? What will our excuse be?

  • cw

    Deborah. No offense but you are full of it. Peter you have nothing to apologize for. You didn’t beat your wife did you? The time for reading the Bible and reading about Jesus is over. Am tired of seeing so many people qouting the word instead of living it. And Deborah a man cannot kinda beat you just like he cannot kinda commit murder. Either the Biship did it or he didn’t. In this case he did. That is fact and not hyperbole.

  • Phoebe

    I pray that Gods divine assignment comes out of this according to his will and not our own, I remember the prophetess Bynum saying in one of her sermons that “the lord constantly puts her on displays of embarassment”, god has a purpose and it will come to pass and not to embarass you my sister but for the greater good even if it doesn’t look like it.I pray also for Bishop may he find peace within.

  • Dennis

    No need to apologize. You reported the truth. He may be ‘annointed’ but not from God… These weak woman, loaded down with sin. Always learning but never coming to an acurate knowledge of the truth.’

    My prays are sent up to heaven for you to get through all things.

    No matter what down falls we have in life; God never told anyone to stay in an abusive relationship. We try to bring God into decisions that we make on our on. Mrs. Bynum Weeks did not bring this beaten on herself and yes we all have struggles but, God helps us to overcome these struggles, even if he allows us to make it out alive he does not state in his word to return to a loveless marriage. A Man that loves God Loves his wife, A Man that loves his wife will cherish her not beat her. I look up to Mrs. Bynum Weeks she is still a child of God. whether this story is fabricated the truth remains that Bishop Weeks did the unspeakable. He can be forgiven but his actions will live with him for a long time to come. I pray God’s healing power upon them both.

  • Kenny

    This incident is disturbing on all levels. More importantly as this news is being spread of this incident over the air waves and Internet without cause or reason; I wonder about the events that could even lead up to a confrontation against two people that has given so much to the religous community. Mind you no one deserves this type of punishment. The spirit of Satan is real people. We must acknowledge it as we do God’s presence. Not to honor Satan but to see his presence. To see his presence we can defend against him.

  • Concerned

    This is a very SAD day that we are living in when those we are looking to as examples behind the scenes live as Hethens(conducting themselves as people of the world). It is a shame that this had to happen, but I pray that through this God will get the Glory. Ms. Bryum, please be honest about everything God has told you that you ignored. Repent and get back into God’s presence. Lay out before Him so He can give you the words to save those that have been following you that my be confused now. Wait on the Lord I say… Wait! Whatever God(GOD!)(not man), has put together let no Man but us under. What God has for you it is for you.

  • Dottie

    The fact is that Juanita Bynum was savagely choked, thrown to the grown, kicked, and stomped upon by her husband. This is all over the news in Atlanta and on other news sites. It’s true, it happened, and Juanita’s publicist has confirmed the attack. Everyone, let’s pray for Juanita in Jesus name.

  • KATHLEEN HARRIS

    To christians and believers everywhere this is another desperate scheme of satan and all of its cohorts to mock the Word of God rather than the sin’s of man. I really pray for the christian community at large. I also sense a sadness in the spiritual realm. Perhaps because I believe christians truly admire(d) and respect(ed) the both of them. I pray that you trust God and believe that whatever He starts He alone will finish.

    I pray that God will bring peace in the ministers lives. I pray also that the both of them will immediatly start walking in the love of God so that satan will be defeated. I believe that GOD will turn this around for their good. Praise the Name of Jesus. We thank you Lord that this is sealed in the name of Jesus. If this happened to me I would want people to pray for me as well. So lets all remain open to the holy spirit and continue to walk in the God kind of Love. Because we all now that the human love can fail any one of us. Praise God we have authority and we can exercise it now in this situation. Also it this is happening at the leadership level in their church we need to start praying for those families in Bishop Weeks church now so that satan does not get the victory. Remember we should love our neighbor as we do our self.

    Love from,

  • http://EvangelisticThrustministriescomcast.net Elder Rodney Bennett

    I pray that God will heal and bring peace to this situation.
    To prophitist Bynam I belive that our process in God is not always an easy process. I believe and pray that God will bring you peace. I had this same problem in this area. With time and patiences God can and will heal each of you.In ministry God use the strange thing to pull us into destiny places. So I encourage you.

    To bishop no one know how much you hurt and the pain you feel inside for the hurt you have cause your wife and yourself and church family for this act,love and disppointment has a way of come out wrong and whatever you do forgive yourself and repent to God and to your wife and remind her of your love. And remove that evil spirit that cause you to hurt the one you cared for and never allow people our the media to make you lose focus on your assignment.

    (Let ye without sin cast the frist stone).

    Allow God to have his perfect will in your marriage. Because God can and will see you through this trying time.

    Lord i pray for my sister and brother and the same way you heal and delivered me from abusing my wife and hurting her physically. I pray that the same way you heal my brother and help my sister to receive his forgiveness and in the same time that you will gave them the victory.I know you saved my marriage and you can save this one,and my wife and I are still together after 8 years so Lord do this right-now in Jesus name Amen.

    no matter what i pray that she will keep faith in God, because her brake through is right around the corner and the devil wants to rob her of it but i will remind the devil that no weapon that is formed against the child of God shall prosper, because greater is he that is in us than he that is the world so the devil (HAND OFF IN THE NAME OF JESUS).

    make sure your own house is in order before you preach to others about theirs.Thanks,Peter the article you sent is the truth and those blind sheep that follow cannot accept the fact that it is .You didn’t offend anyone,just hurt their feelings because they were too stupid to see that some of these money chasing preachers are no different than anyone else. You would think that after all this preaching that she would have a clue by now on how to find a good man,and by him being a “pastor” to jump on a woman?They both need help and so do the people who excuse this kind of behavior behind the cloth of them “still being God’s annointed”.

    This is an accurate report of what occured. Stop being dilusional and face the facts that this Bishop was caught doing what he’s been used to doing. It needed to be EXPOSED!!! Pray for the both of them that God will bring forgiveness and healing.

  • Mark

    Pastor Brooks..you can’t be serious? The guy beat his wife up!!! Stomped on her in the parking lot..that seems more devilish than annointed. So much for Husbands love your wives even as christ loves the church. I will be praying for them but let’s not get carried away with lifting the man up higher than he really is. Because when it’sall said and done..he hit a woman…who is the weaker vessel

    Juanita Bynum is a powerful women of God. I noticed that she was lacking the anointing ever since she has been married to Mr. Weeks. I believe that things were going wrong for a long time, and I believe she tried to make it work. I don’t understand some men when they get a powerful woman and a Godly woman they do not know what to do with her. He was attracted to this powerful woman, but at the same time the same things men are attracted to are the same things they start to despise. This incident is just a representation of the brokenness that exists within families particularly in the African american community. There are always signs when it comes to domestic abuse, I believe no one is above the law, and I believe that he should receive counseling, probation or maybe even a light sentence. However if Juanita Bynum fears for her life, a sister got to do what a sister has to do. I am married with 2 children and my power is challenged sometimes. It is hard because at the end you start to lose yourself. Marriage is complicated and trying at times. A man’s nature is to control and to be the head and when that is challenged there is always problems. Does Mr. Weeks have a past history of abuse, no one just snaps like that. Black women in this society need to be cherished more. We come from a history of oppression, but do we need to be continually victimized by our own people. Black women are we sleeping with the enemy? It is not the world who can destroy us, but the people who are the closet to us who inflict the most pain.
    Stay strong and Blessed Sister Bynum.
    You ARE AN INSPIRATION TO ALL WOMEN. YOU WILL SURVIVE THIS
    LOVE,
    EBONY

  • Erica

    My prayers go out to Mr. & Mrs. Weeks. I in no way condone his actions and I pray that he will allow God to fully deliver him. Juanita is such an awesome and anointed woman of God. As she heals I pray that she depends even more so on God she loves and preaches about. God bless

  • kim barkley

    If I may share a quote with you from Mrs. Bynum herself.Ya though I walk through the valley…..I will fear no evil for though art with me. She has a 2:58 sermon on You Tube that states that she as well as others have a cloud over there lifes. There has been many situations that could have taken us out but we are still here cause GODS got us coverd and I feel sorry for anyone who lays hands on one of GODS coverd.

    We should pray for our leaders,they are under heavy attack I always pray for my Pastor & Wife here in San Diego,Ca it should not be a strange thing we are all have a cross to bare,these are praying times everyone that reads this please pray for them, there are souls that need Christ and when our focus is off of Christ we give the devil what he wants, and thats to sift us as wheat. They are two beautiful people who Love the Lord, lets pray for them not tear them down and give the devil a Black Eye. Min.Charles (“Pray Saints Pray”)

  • Patrick

    This can’t even stop her destiny yet I belive that this woman needs a lot of prayer and even fasting on her behalf because. Hell is surely celebrating thinking that it has silenced on of it’s worst enemies but while that was going own just as the Biblical Stephen was being stoned Jesus stood up and when he stands all things will be shaken up and set straight.

    She displayed excellence in Ministry and demonic forces was on her trail and she knew this.

    We love her and wish the best for she and her husband.
    She is not one that is power hungry or desperate for fame so I am sure that she will take time off until it’s time for her to come out as work the works that she was sent here for…

  • Mike

    I would really like to hear his account of what happened before I lean either way, and all of u should too. What i have discovered in situations like this is that one person will tell their side, the other will tell their version and what really happened is usually somewhere in between.

  • Cinny

    I really think that Patriarchy is to blame here. I think that all the Abrahamic faiths have this imbalance. I note for example only the Male Dieties are lifted up in all the Abrahamic Faiths. To me, a more balanced trinity would include a mother principle, a father principle and a child or children principle. The classical western chritian trinity is a trinity of Gods of the same sex ~ a homo-sexed Trinity. We need balance, and a bronze age idea of Male over Female is anachronistic and will need to be re-vamped to fit the modern age. Right now there are more female african american women in college then male. 40 years from now, aspects of African Female goddesses, will be praised more than they are now. I am a Male living in Oakland, where we will have a march of over 500 gay black women this Saturday August, 25, they are in the process of defining principles, values, and deities, that support their special genetic circumstances, that bronze age concepts can’t contain.

  • phoebe

    i am a contributor from africa and i dont believewhat I am seeing! contributions full of grammatical/spelling errors! from the people whose 1st language is english – or whatever you call the lingo there.

    leave the two alone. theirs is a marriage like any other that cannot survive unless it is enveloped in prayer. when is the last time you prayed for them?

  • Sammy

    For, brethren, you have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; You shall love your neighbor as yourself. But if you bite and devour one another, take heed that you be not consumed one of another. This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that you cannot do the things that you would. But if you be led of the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, impurity, licentiousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, strife, jealousy, wrath, selfishness, divisions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such like: of which I tell you beforehand, as I have also told you in time past, that they who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, self-control: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
    Galatians 5:13-26

    In marriage the “fruit of the Spirit” is needed to make a marriage work. And the only way that is achieved is by taking seriously God’s Word especially John 15. When Christ is honored in both their lives then they will submit to all of what God says and produce the fruit of the Spirit.

    This is what happens to people who have boasted consistently the promotion of their charismatic “Gift” and failed to take seriously the rest of God’s word concerning “Fruit of the Spirit” and how we should “Walk” Ephesians 5:2

    May God use this tragic event to sober them up to that end.

  • Professor S

    Make certain that you guys use spellcheck before sending off your comments. There are spelling and grammatical errors all over the place. Take your time; it takes only a minute!

  • Avery

    I talked to my close friend last night and she was very upset over this situation she called it a tragedy. I do not know what happened between them, but, as many others here have stated they are people, they are human. I am sure both will be emabarrased by this situation and may need to rebuild trust with some, in some areas. The only way that this is a complete tragedy in my opinion is if they do not recover! If they do not stand back up! Be blessed Bishop Weeks and Pastor Bynum may GOD continue to guide your paths.

  • Billionaire T

    Satan we renouce you now in Jesus name.
    Guys lets pray for them, we are not perfect ourselves

    Hitting a woman is wrong! Stop the maddness. Pray for children ..NOT a wife beater!

  • Lynn

    I am truly sorry for what happened and like the other sister said that this is only a test for the great testimony. Don’t loose focus. The anointing on your life will never be decreased as a result of what happened. The Bible tells us that the steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord. I don’t believe that what has happened to you is a shock to God and I know that He is indeed ordering your steps.

    I know this may be hard for you right now but don’t allow anyone to bring your husband down. I know you to be a mighty wonman of God and I admire you very much therefore I can almost say with accuracy that before you married him you would have sought directions from God. And rightly so, because that is what He required us to do.

    Personally, the Lord has been dealing with me in the area of killing my flesh. situations that i have been going trough i often say to Him what i am going to say to those people who intentionally try to do me wrong and He asked me one day the question, are you doing it because it is right or are you doing it because it will make you feel better. I told Him what i want to do is not wrong but overall it will make me feel better. He told me as long as i do thing that will make me feel better in the natural too much flesh is still alive. all i am trying to say is that the decision you make, the world will be watching and it could be the defining moment for both you and your husband and a lost soul.

    Please do the right thing! Although it is hard right now try not to be so emotinal when you talk to God in order for you to hear what He is saying. at the end of the day we are all here to bring glory to God, what other people feel should in deed be secondary.

    I am praying for you and I will continue to do so. May God continue to bless you and your husband and you continue to lift him up in prayer.

  • SARAH

    Scripture says:

    “TOUCH NOT MY ANNOINTED”

    ENOUGH SAID!!!

  • Unbelievagle

    No one is to blame here except Mr. Weeks. There were witnesses to this crime. The hotel bellhop had to pull him off of her. He beat her to the ground and was stomping her.

    You should be thanking God that the bellhop was there and intervened.

    The facts are right there for everyone to see. Take off the blinders and stop making excuses for this kind of behavior. Preachers are not immune to the laws of the land.

  • Eartha

    What a shame! No one seems to be seeing the big picture here; hypocrisy. Ms. Bynum has made millions of dollars with her sermon “No More Sheets” empowering women to leave unhealthy relationships. Who knows how long she has been physically and emotionally abused? I doubt this is the first time. Each week she continuosly steps on the pulpit preaching a message of foreging Godly relationships. What a hypocrit. I wish we as a culture would stop being defensive and forgiving and hold our leaders, entertainers and sports figures to the same standards. The standards of being accountable for our own actions. That’s what Jesus would do.

  • THE RICH ONE

    Hi Everyone,

    The point for everyone to get is that this is spiritual warfare. Let’s stop judging the situation with Bynun & Weeks and pray for all the people new and old in the body of Christ. It does not matter to judge because we all have faults and fall short of the Glory & Honor of God.

    This thing that happened is a wake up call for us to pray to God, to pray for one another and to pray for the world that we live in.

  • MissHazel

    Pastor Will Brooks,

    Why should we “watch what we say about him” if this incident is true? Also, what makes you believe that this man is among “God’s anointed”? Because he claims to be? Forget what he “says”; even Satan himself can claim to be a Christian while bearing no fruits of the spirit.

    Remember 1 Timothy 3:

    1This is a true saying, if a man desire the office of a bishop, he desireth a good work.

    2A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

    3Not given to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy lucre; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;

    4One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;

    5(For if a man know not how to rule his own house, how shall he take care of the church of God?)

    6Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.

    Search the Scriptures for yourselves people and stop following false teachings.

  • Terri

    Praise the Lord for all the saints who deceided t pray for these two dear children of the Lord.. all fall short unfortunately this altercation resulted in serious harm, spiritually, mentally and physically, BUT GOD, can heal them both and all scars. God bless both Thomas and his wife to have reconcilliation in God and beat this situation and show the world they are more than conquerrors thru Christ. After all, no weapon formed against us CAN prosper.

    God is still good – it is man who is corrupt. A husband and wife, none of us know their struggles, their weaknesses, or even the reason behind the altercation. As Beverly stated, we have to stop putting man/woman on pedestals – remember what time were in people – false prophets, etc. We are living like we’re in the Old Testament – Prior to Jesus ripping down the veil thus allowing us to go directly to God. Yes pray for the Weeks/Brynum family, don’t be too quick to judge God himself will do that. Perhaps this is God’s way of getting Them to realize who’s powerful, who’s Holy and who really Controls their lives. I suggest we consider seeking God personally, He wants each of us to know him personally, that’s why we have the Bible with all its teachings. Man/Woman will change one word in the bible and make it their own and we believe it – generation after generation -understand Fellowship and teaching is good and part of the Christian life, but it takes discpline, Truth and constant shedding of the world to stand before thousands, if not millions of people – who can say one is better than the next. I say Trust Jesus our God.

    I will keep them both in prayer, but without a doubt God will have the glory.

    Truly this is a time for the body of Christ to pray like never before….Even though Prophetess Bynum and Bishop are individuals that has given words of encouragement to many….It does not exempt what was done by the flesh…

    AS we all reflect on the incident of our leader’s,I would like to share these words that was given to me.
    We as fellow believers must all heed these words says the Lord of Host:

    My wrath shall fall upon every bank, company that promote, exhibit or finance such perversion…Watch what I shall do.
    Every crookedness shall be exposed. The works of the enemy shall not be hidden anymore. My children have cried out too long..Their hurts ring in my ears. No more saith God..
    Watch as I expose the perversion even in the church. Be not dismayed of what I shall do..No one shall be spared… Warn my people so that they may be turned from their weakness. I will begin to search the hearts of my leaders and will begin a mighty work inside of each of them.
    They most take on the new wine skin that I’m establishing upon this earth..Too much is happening and it’s stinking in my nostril!!. My leaders and pastors have not pleaded my case, nor have they followed my direction….
    I alone made this universe. How dare they not listen to what I have spoken to them individually? I’m a God of 2nd chances.. Sound the alarm for the day of the Lord is at hand!!.

    What this man did is wrong both from a Christian stand point and from a secular. What we as Christian need to do is pray for both of them, because the devil is attacking marriages all over. On the same note, he needs to publicly ask for forgiveness and he needs to be punished for his actions as well. Once we has Christian realize that we are all humans and that we all fall short, when these things happen we will be more equipped to handle it rather than passing judgment on the person or turn away from Church all together. Also, Christian should not be arguing with someone from the secular world about these things, the carnal mind cannot understand things of the spirit.

    So with that said, our main focus should be, pray for this couple, and all marriages for that matter, and if he has to be punish for it, so be it.

  • Mydajah

    We need to realize that Satan will use anyone. He doesn’t discriminate, we do. To him it did not matter that she was a prophetess and he was the bishop,but he saw that they have influence which brought about an opportunity for Satan to attack. This is spiritual warfare, a matter that can not be addressed in the flesh with a carnal mind. Instead of worrying about whether or not they are hypocrits, check yourself, and pray for them. Let he that is without sin cast the first stone. Remember that the word (God’s Word) says touch not my anointed and do my prophet no harm. Life and death are in the tongue, so before you speak think: Will these words break down or build a person up? It’s time for us to be kingdom minded.

  • Elder B. Cross

    “Pray without ceasing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:17) This is what we are instructed to do. If we would get back to what God has purposed for us to do in moments like this, we would come together as the body of Christ and “Pray”. Prayer changes thing. “…The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. ” (James 5:16b).

    My prayers are with the Week’s family.

  • Bannister in VA

    I’m so sorry that most of you actually feel he is right or justified in doing what he did, That was not a act of god so therefore he DOSENOT have an annointed from god, if you ask me he never had it. Just because you can write a book and have millions look at you and lift you up in this physical world, that dosent make you right with god, to be with god is a personal relation. There is a spirit in man, right and wrong god declared that from the begining and that what he did was wrong, if you ask me Hell is a state of mind and so is Heaven. Dont look at physical gain for spirtual gain, When you want the glory of god you are asking for trouble, isnt that what the devil did, he wanted glory for himself if you give all the glory to god you will not go wrong. Be righteous in evey thing you do, say and manifest. god is watching.

  • Me

    It’s time for the Body of Chris to stop mis-quoting the Word of Christ silencing wrong doing in the church

    This is an opportunity for each of us as leaders to see what God is saying, it’s not always about the attack of the “enemy”. May be God is doing an exposing in the Body of Christ and He wants us to seek help in our marriages as leaders. There are alot of “weeks” out there that are going to the same thing and afraid to speak out. Because of the misquoting of touching not my anointed syndrome.
    ..
    I’m not standing in judgement of anyone…but leaders speak the truth and not your religion..

    Who are the anointed?
    John 17:17 “Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.” Unless someone is speaking the word correctly they are not teaching the truth and it doesn’t matter if they call themselves anointed, or how big or successful a ministry they have, they are WRONG.
    What do the anointed man and women of God act like? Do they stop you from going to check their teachings or anyone else’s by the Word? Of course not, Titus 1:9 “holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able, by sound doctrine, both to exhort and convict those who contradict.”
    No apostle ever said they were anointed, they did not speak in this manner; “don’t touch me I’m God’s anointed.” If someone is truly anointed, they would want to encourage the people to discern what is true and what is not. They would encourage people to pursue truth no matter where it would lead. They would love the sheep enough to protect them from falsehood and want to see them grow. They would allow the sheep to learn and think for themselves. The anointing, who is the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth and someone who has the Spirit of Truth will never run from seeing error but will confront it when necessary. He will give someone the truth from the Word, subsequently leading us away from error.
    We also need to ask the question who is anointed? The Bible tells us the whole body of Christ is

  • Kay

    Wake up people!

    God did not tell Juanita Bynum to marry this man. God is good and does not add any sorrow with his blessings. Thus, he would never lead anyone into an abusive marriage. So the question becomes, who is she listening to? She is not the prophetess she claims to be. We need to stop following these false prophets and money changers and stop calling them God’s anointed. Where are the folks with the gift of discerning of spirits?

    Glory to the Mighty Living God!
    The past five years a derth of destruction has been cast on Holy Matrimony. Hearts have been broken and congregations divided when the enemy finds a way to corrupt a marriage of two powerful leaders in God’s kingdom on Earth. We need to pray for the families and know that God makes a way when we let Him.

  • http://juanitabynum angie w.

    It is truly a sad situation and while we must “pray them up”,we should never turn a blind eye to an obvious problem!Counseling is mandatory,and accountability to an authoritative figure is a MUST.Sister in Christ,Do Not take this lightly because nothing gives a spouse the right to strike the other.Bishop,I implore to stand up as a man of God and do the right thing,REPENT.My heart is with you sister,and as you once said”watch me go out on a limb and saw it off ” because the God you serve will sustain you!God bless you both. From someone who knows.

  • Kenyetta Shepard

    Saints!! Its time for us to realize that there is an attack on the body of Christ as a whole. Our leaders are fallen daily but the bible encourages us to PRAY without ceasing. Instead of talking about it in GOSSIP we should be praying!!!! She will take this expirience and bounce back with a stronger annointing.

  • Denise

    I pray for you both. We the people should not judge let the lord…We don’t know the story only pieces. Pastor Juanita I love you and I will continue to pray for you and your situation. Bishop Weeks I love you too and I will pray for you two as one.. May god be with you both.

  • Janice Roberts

    This was a very disturbing report. I don’t blame any other than the source – satan. This is a time to pray and not pass judgment on either. The purpose of marriage is to reveal each other weaknesses. We that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak and not to please ourselves. Although it is always heartbreaking and to me wrong for anyone to lay their hands on another individual. Things do happen and I believe the wrong party should quicly repent to the other. They are both God’s anointed and we should not place negative words on what belongs to God. I don’t know Thomas Weeks but I do know the woman Juanita Bynum and her spirit. I just know that God has many lessons for all of us to learn or else He wouldn’t have allowed it to happen. God raised both of them to have a life where they would be raised up and looked upon by millions – that’s because there is much in them and wisdom and instructions flow through their souls. So let’s not lose heart when we see the flesh show it’s ugly form. Let’s do the right thing and love unconditionally and continue to pray for God’s people.

    Juanita, may God continue to bless and keep you. Bishop Weeks may God continue to bless and keep you. Great anointings come with great trials. Both of you will have more anointing than ever before. To God be the Glory. I see His presence in this. This is a God thang. I know you all may not understand this, but it’s working for their good. I love the both of you…. Take care and get rest.

  • Daina Saulny

    I believe that they are annointed and because she presched that sermon during separtion it was prophetic. She usually preaches from experience! Pastor and preachers go through stuff to. I think her openess and honesty about real life God and the Devil she will not only minister to the body of the church but to ministers that has things hidden and won’t talk about what they go through. Jesus Christ is the only one that is perfect. I say we are now waiting for the sermon. You will teach us how to deal with marriage situations and differences.

    We are looking forward to seeing you two recover and counsel other married people! OPEN AND HONEST AND REAL!!!!!

    It doesnt matter that he is a preacher, and it doesnt matter most that you are an evangelists. We are all human, and being such we all battle with our own personal issues. You are strong I admire the very utterance of voice, and even though we all know the word of God that is not what I wish to offer you. I need you to understand that you are beautiful, even with bruises you are truly beautiful. Thank God that you are still here because women accross the wrold could not live without you. You are the very blessing that women all over needed. And satan knows that, We all have problems in our realtionships, love, family,etc. I pray that you better soon cause I want hear you again. I Love you, I love you, the world needs you. Dont give up, you win, you always do and always will. One of the most powerful creatures in this world her name is ” Juanita Bynum”.

    No abuse should be tolerated, verbal, physical, emotional or spiritual. However, when looking at a domestic situation PLEASE, PLEASE understand it takes two to tango. Both this man and woman contributed to whatever went wrong in their relationship. “YES” he was wrong for striking her but to follow behind him, let me repeat to have been following behind him, probably still trying to make her point was also wrong on her part. It is very nice to post all of the wonderful scriptures and quotes but hey they are the only ones to know exactly what has been going on behind closed doors. Yes Satan is always busy but we also leave to door wide open for the adversary to come. Sis Juanita and Bro Weeks need to get it together without our 2cents being thrown in.

  • Nina

    I can’t blame the publishers. If they were spending time building a relationship with the Lord and not wasting time digging into others’ affairs on this testing ground, they would have known better than to attempt destroying the testimony of God.

    Additionally, the snitch should return reporters’ calls now. I wonder why he is backing down when his urge to get the news out has been fulfilled. If I were him, I would repent to God and apologize to this family for betraying them. He was no helper in the first place when he so-called stopped the fight. If he truly was trying to help, this problem would not have been exposed as it is right now.

    It is the power of God, and not what society thinks, that can make a situation better. Sometimes it is okay to stop blaming things on the devil and turn focus to the ones who are the vessels through which his work is manifested…because guess what??? It is them that are risking being condemned to HELL; the devil already knows his destiny.

    Finally, I pray that the Lord’s will be done in this situation. May people be forgiven, renewed, and used by the Lord…contrary to what the devil expects as an end result!

    *********************** AND*****************************

    America has a serious problem with confidentiality. While “broadcasting” might be necessary in certain circumstances, I wonder how appropriate it is in the sight of God…For our God is a God of deep secrets. I believe it should be left to him to carry out exposures. It seems as though we punish and judge people in exposing them. Ummmm, is the Lord really ok with this???

    I LOVE Evanglist Bynum, I pray that she will be better than she was, when she recover.

  • St. Louis preacher

    I shall not air their dirty laundry but there was more to their relationship than the public eye may be aware of. If you know either one of them, both have had bad relationships in the past and I KNOW he’s been divorced before. God can heal and restore and regardless of the fine mess they’ve gotten themselves into, God can forgive and we should do the same. However, we ought not thinkg that the rules don’t apply to us when it comes to bad decisions that we’ve made in life. My Bible quotes “Be not deceived, God is not mocked. For whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” You can’t do wrong and expect good to come from it….and I’ll leave it at that.

  • http://n/a Anonymous Christian

    Friends:

    I am concerned with the number of unsaved ministers emerging today– treating the gospel as a profession as opposed to a calling. Many of their churches become big while their members go unsaved or remain on milk, because they do not read/know the Word. If Christ is from the bible but people don’t study the bible, how can they still say they are Christians (i.e., followers of Christ)? This is an impossibility.

    If you are concerned that you are following men/women while having no real knowledge of scripture, humble yourself and pray this:
    “Dear God, I recognize that I may be zealous for you but it is not based on knowledge. By violating any of your 10 commandments (i.e., lying, stealing, using your name in vain, etc.), I recognize that you see me as a sinner, and therefore I am in need of a savior. I believe and confess that this savior is Jesus Christ, who died for my sins, and was then raised from the dead by you. The bible says there is no other way to you but by your Son. By simply believing this truth, I now know that I am saved”.

    If you earnestly pray this, you will immediately receive the holy spirit, and it will enable you to understand bible scripture on your own. Still search for sound bible teaching. You will then grow as you continue to study and pray, rightfully dividing this Word of truth. No man will be able to deceive you.

  • Y-NOT

    I pray for the Weeks family during these troublesome times. In spite of their current crisis, they are yet human and yet chosen of God. We as people must be very careful how we discuss issues of this nature when they arise, for we can only pray that God will keep us during the hour of temptation. May the Lord God be with Juanita and her companion during this temporary storm!!!

    First of all, there are no Prophets to day other than those in the Bible. We don’t need this ” TV Evangelist” worship. So many so-called monisters, preachers, evangelists, teachers, pastors will begin a sermon with one or two verses..then..it becomes a long drawn out lecture ( ususally better fitted for a socioliogist, psychiatrist, or salesman) than a person of God. In other words teach the Word chapter by chapter and verse by verse, precept upon precept and take the personal agendas out of the pulpit. So much is taught today based on tradition that is non scriptual. As an example, Easter, what happened to Passover? Easter, bunnies, eggs, that is a pagan holiday. The name is an abomination to the Father. He is not happy with that foolishness.

    I pray for Sister Bynum and her husband, we all fall short.. When we do repent and we are forgiven. no opne is perfect from the pulpit to the back door of the church.

    homosexual activity and whoremongering are both wrong.

    I just have one question: i keep hearing people talk about “dont touch God’s annointed” when in reality, we need to stop thinking that every single man or woman that CLAIMS to know God or preach His Word is ANNOINTED!

    Hello to ALL!

    There are two sides to every story. We’ve only heard one. Still, LOVE COVERS a multitude of sins. Plead the Blood of Jesus over their lives as well as the lives of all the children of God everywhere. We all NEED it. It cleanses us and has ultimate Power! Even the enemy can’t penetrate that. Fast and Pray for both, period. Stop judging. That’s God’s job. Let Him handle His area of expertise. The battle is not yours, but it’s the Lord’s.

  • Tan

    I am concerned that Prophetess Bynum and Bishop Weeks have had their marital matters dealt with in such a public way. However, I honestly believe it is better for this matter to be addressed today rather than at her burial. While a supporter of Prophetess Bynum as a woman and a believer, I am not prepared to take sides or pass judgement. However, I am prepared to pray.

    Let’s refrain from being so judgemental. I personally joined in the conversation with friends stating all of the things I would have done if it had been me, but the truth of it all is that IT WASN’T ME! I don’t know their situation, I do know that the media will inflate the truth to make the story more appealing. I don’t know why Bishop Weeks chose to respond in such a distastful way or what, if anything, was done to provoke him.

    I supported her then and I will support her even more during this trying time.

    Be reminded we must die daily to ourselves. The flesh is NEVER a willing participant in the things of God. Warfare is never fair.

    God Bless You All

    Response to previous posts: To beat another human is bad enough, but to lose control in public means that the person has serious, serious problems.
    Sadly, the couple brought their own business into the public.
    If a crime was committed, citizens should have reported what they saw and cooperated with law enforcement. Regarding “anointed”: Many of you who are defining people as “anointed” will turn around and tell others “not to judge”, but are you not judging? You are trying to do something that only God can do: Know people’s hearts, and define who is the real believer and WHO IS THE ANOINTED. I believe IT IS A SIN TO IDOLIZE PEOPLE just because they give good sermons, write good books, or get a lot of attention from the media. They could be evil, destructive, or cruel to others away from the public eye, or emotionally disturbed in such a way that they hurt others. In my opinion, every truly good hearted person who is obedient to the Spirit of God within his/her life is anointed.

  • Micheline

    Pray for Mr Weeks he allowed satan to take control of him and he have to go on his knees and ask god for forgiveness then his wife. We also have to pray for Juanita that she will rise above this. This is for Imogean Shaw it is not good to rejoice about someone downfall even if you do not like the person it is her money if she wants a lavish wedding it is her business. Juanita while people looking at your setback god is working on your comeback

  • http://www.netscape.com Angel

    Sounds more like a permanent storm to me. They are already separated and then he beats her up. Why did they get separated? Almost looks like its not the first time he’s done it. She would have to be high on dope to go back to him. Lets be honest, if we dig deep, we’ll find a lot of dirt about this couple. She just needs to move on and find another man. And before she marries him, watch for the signs which means dating him for a few years to know him better.

    Just my two cents.

  • Tammy

    wake up Some people in the ministry start off great and then their eyes get off of God and onto self, money and other things…..Wake up and look around you at these so called annointed. I think God is cleaning house and He said it would start in HIS house!

    WAKE UP!

  • Tammy

    to Lisa……I agree with you…..my comment is not in judgement…..it is from observing this entire ministry as it has developed….I think many are duped by “all that glitters” and maybe I am the only one on this blog that has the guts to submit this kind of opinion….so be it…..the “news” lately if people notice is about the birds that flock together…..maybe God is tired of people gaining at HIS expense!

    Men that beat women are punks. God joined man and women as a hole, not one to be used as a punching bag. A woman is suppose to be the man’s special treasure. I am proud to say that my parents raised me better than that. My prayers and heart goes out to Ms. Juanita Bynum.

  • Gerard

    All things work together for good for those that love Him and are called according to his purposes. Jesus said that if you love me then keep my commandments. The second commandment he gave is to love our neighbor as ourselves. Beating your neighbor or wife is not a sign of love and a violation of his commandment. When we violate His commandments we are not showing love to Jesus so all thing may not work together for our good because at that moment we are not loving Him. All actions have consequences and it is disturbing to see Christians justifying or making excuses for this behavior. If she has to leave this marriage I hope the Christian community doesn’t come down on her. Sometimes women stay in abusive relationships and pay the ultimate price…their lives. There is no room to put on aires that everything is ok now when it is not. Or spiritualize a crime that was committed. No doubt there will be many that will rally around Min. Weeks and excuse his behavior. Others will say that this is the work of satan without acknowledging that satan operates through people. That’s why Jesus called Peter satan when he told him to get behind him. If satan was attacking, he was attacking through Min. Weeks. Assault and battery is a crime and the fact that this happened in a public setting only highlights this atrocity. I pray for them both but if they need to go separate ways then so be it.

    Where do you get off Nina saying that the man that broke up the assault was a snitch. A crime was being committed and needed to be reported. It’s that kind of mentality that keeps crime rampant in the black neighborhood. Look the other way would seem to be your answer.

    Is any one thinking or better yet, is anyone praying for the followers that these two ministers have? Is anyone thinking about the people that are close to their own breakthroughs and were hoping that the ministers could show them the way by the word of God. Let’s take the time to pray and lift up the followers of these two ministers.

    Prophetess and Bishop know what they need to do. Let’s pray for them, but please don’t forget their followers.

    Continue to bless and be blessed

  • Jehovah1

    I just want to say that I too believe that the saints hide behind the scriptures when the scriptures tell us plainly that the law is for the lawless. When a PERSON (Bishops, Pastor, Prophets included)begins to act in a way that is not conducive to holiness and starts breaking land laws then they are out of the ark of safety and subject to the laws that govern the land. You cannot judge a situation that has already been judged. If you do this then you get the appropriate punishment.

    And, I want to ask Clay, who thinks that there are no prophets on earth, to do some homework bro. God says that nothing will go on in the world unless he informs the prophet. Somebody will have to let you know. I’m willing to bet that your relationship with God is not one that will allow you to know without a prophet.

  • GERTIE

    I am deeply troubled by the comments from the people of God.
    my bible tells me when your family members are going thru to pray for them. If we are part of the body of Christ what
    the Weeks are going thru i also share,because I feel their struggle at this time. Our land need healing and God said if those who are called by name will humble themselves and turn from their wick it ways than will he heal the land. We who know the Lord and know that we are his should began to
    pray. We are not perfect none of us. As believers we should pray daily for our sisters and brothers.
    Satan I rebuke you in the mighty Name OF Jesus take your hand off of the Weeks.
    Dear Heavenly Father i give you
    the Honor,Glory, and Praise for you are able to deliver the Weeks. Have mercy on them and bless them and
    lead and guide all of your children in Jesus name.

    “MY PRAYERS” ARE WITH YOU BOTH!(DR.JUANITA BYNUM-WEEKS and BISHOP WEEKS III). I LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH! STAY FOCUSED ON THE WORD OF GOD and KEEP YOUR HEAD UP. ALL THE NEGATIVE PUBLICITY (disregard it!!!! NONE OF US ARE PERFECT.)
    REMEMBER: “ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE YOU”

  • wallace

    As I read all these comments it amazed me to see all of the “do not touch God’s anointed”, and “judge not lest ye be jubged” , it seems like these people don’t even know what this mean. When David spoke about God’s anointed , it was in refrence to an anointed king . Saul was anointed to be king by God who instructed a prophet to anointed him as king and so was David . The high priest was also anointed by God’s instruction ,Jesus was anointed by the Holy Spirit to be our king he is also our high priest if anyone else is anointed which role are they using the king our high priest , that will nullify the position of Jesus , a bishop is not anointed nor a pastor or prophet that is just blasphemy and abot judging ,we are not called to judge on anyone pertaining heaven or hell , we cannot that a person is going to hell because God is the judge ,we cannot say a person is going to heaven because God is the judge but if a person does something in the open we must speak on it , Bishop Bynum is going to court and someone will pass judgement ,will that be wrong or is he above the law ,I just hope he seeks forgiveness from God who is able to forgive to the uttermost but he must still deal with the consequences and i hope she put all her effort in Christ and allow the Holy Spirit to direct her path because all eyes are on the church but for us who believe in God we know that things are going to get far worse as the end draw near and those in the faith who can be shaken will be shaken an loose out on eternity

  • Rosa Maria DelVecchio

    Dear God! Can we forget the public image of this suffering couple for a minute? We are all just children of God. Both of these human beings are in pain right now. The woman, who is a woman like me and any woman, is in physical and emotional pain from the beating she received from the man she loved enough to marry. Stop stoning her with her own words that she wrote out of love for all women! The man, who is a man like any man, is in emotional pain from the God awful thing he did to the woman he loved enough to marry. Stop lynching him! We don’t have the right. The woman is entitled to medical care, the man to a fair trial. And, like it or not, they might decide to stay married or to divorce, but it is their choice to make. Lord have mercy on us all!

  • Prophetess Deborah Epps

    I am so sorry and deeply hurt that this has happened to my sister, a jewel in the Body of Christ; Please to everyone reading this note continue to pray for this marriage. The prayers of the righteous avails much; Can WE pray? Can WE intercede?

    Job 16:21 “On behalf of a man he pleads with GOD as a man pleads for his friend”)

  • Beitun2u

    Stop the madness!!! Why is it always the plight of the masses to find the one at fault and to condemn them? Clearly they both need to seek help. As much as we need to pray for Juanita (she will be alright) we truly need to pray for Bishop Weeks. It is apparent that he too is obviously hurting. We need to pray that his dis-ease be quenched by the spirit.
    I pray as one commentator mentioned that they seek help and become honest with each other and most of all with themselves. You know we must first acknowledge where we are, how we got here before we can move forward.

    So many times we make a mess and want God to bless our mess but GOD is not the author of confusion. GOD is LOVE, not hate, strife, wickedness, etc.
    Isaiah 54:17 says, let no weapon formed against you prosper but we must be careful that we don’t form our own weapons of destruction against our own selves and those close to us. Mr.& Mrs., I pray that you both get real with each other and realize you must earn your way out of this the fighting, cussing, abusive public display is just the evidence of things going or gone out of control. You two are adults and should be able to agree to disagree, if not get a mediator for sure. I have not read anywhere where it says that marriage is a piece of cake but if you begin to work on you and let him work on him and allow GOD to make the difference you will be able to reconcile this marriage or find peace to go on. Only the two of you know what you have taken one another through.

    I pray your strength and guidance in the Lord. To GOD be the glory…
    TO GOD BE THE GLORY………

  • Van Murray

    Bishop Weeks you are love with the love of the Lord Jesus
    and Sis Bynum I am praying for you.

  • Prophetess G

    God has spoken!

    No longer shall my people hide behind my word while I speak with them concerning their sins and they ignore me. I will begin in the pulpit exposing those who refuse to change. I will speak with them in private and if they refuse to change I will allow them to be exposed. Judgement will begin in My house saith the Lord, so let it begin in your house. My peolple must and shall return unto to me.

    It’s not just Bishop Weeks, it’s all leaders in the Body of Christ. We must consistently pray for our leaders. We all are subjected to temptation on a daily basis but me must think first. The only power that satan has is the power of temptation, suggestion and thoughts. To act on his temptations is a choice we make without considering the consequences.

    This is not an attack of satan. This is allow by God to correct us. If we never confront our own personal issues, we will never overcome.

    Refrain from judging, but be free to PRAY.

    May God continue to give all of us another chance to correct our wrong for we too have some things that we need to correct in our lives. We too have some form of strong hold that needs to be addressed.

    The credibility of the church is on the line. We hav a loud shout but we are losing our clout.

    This is the perfect time for the anti-christ to set up his plan to deceive us.

    So, don’t stop believing and be deceived.

    Be Blessed!

  • Joyce

    This is for Bishop Weeks I know sometimes we women can make
    you all men mad. But if you ever get that mad just walk
    away. God don’t want you to hit on your wife like that. You
    both of in the minister field for God. You all got to show
    example for people not into Christ. I am praying for both of
    you to forgive each other. and continue what God ask you to
    do. If you both can’t live togather, just go your seperate
    ways. You both still can love each other apart. Jut think
    about it. with love.

  • A Follower

    To you, Bishop:

    Keep in mind that while people are following PEOPLE, they should ONLY be FOLLOWING CHRIST JESUS. ‘And he gave some prophets, some apostles, some evangelists, some teachers, and some preachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of the kingdom and the edifying of the Body of Christ.’ The sole purpose for the men and women of the Body of Christ is to show others HOW to follow GOD, not follow themselves or any other man/woman for that matter. This is 87% of the problem today in the Church Body. Remember Jim Jones, Jimmy Swaggert, Jim Baker,… the list goes on and on. People were following them and where did they end up following them to? Let downs and for some, even death! We should be encouraging people to follow Christ Jesus, for He is the ONLY perfect and Holy One, without sin. People should be taught to press their way into a breakthrough, yes, but they should also be taught how to ‘study to show THYSELF approved.’ Read the word for themselves instead of expecting the men and women of God to do all the work for them (us). Unfortunately, we’ll never know when something like this could happen again and people need not expect the Pastors to have faith FOR them. At some point, we should all have faith for ourselves. Get off the milk, already. That way, when and if this type of thing occurs, the ‘followers’ as you call them, can pray for the Pastors when they need it. We should be praying for all anyway and not just when the mess hits the fan!

    Follow man…… and you’ll ALWAYS be disappointed because man is not perfect; man is not GOD.

    Stay Blessed

  • Michelle Coxx

    I love Juanita and have enjoyed her preaching… The devil hates her and her ministry and unfortantly is in her husband.

    I would kick him to the curb…
    The bible says a man is to love his wife as Christ loved the church and gave his life for it…
    He is a weirdo…
    My hausband laughs at me when I yell at him…Then I can’t be mad anymore. He is a real Christian to me..

    You desrve better Juanita.
    You cannot be his Savior…
    Kick him to the curb God will forgive you….

    I would like to say to Juanita Bynum Weeks. Hold your head up for God has not forgotten you. What God has built up, man can not tear down. The bible states ” AM I MY BROTHERS KEEPER?” You that is spiritual restore those that are weak. You that put your eyes on man and not God! I know that God us with Juanita Bynum and the anoiting of God is with her. She is not a fake. And futher more you give your money to whatever you decide to put it. If you supported her ministry with a faithful heart whether in books, cd’s or video, beleieve God and it will return unto you for doing good.
    Much Love and Sincere praying for you!

  • Chosen

    I just want to say that I am really disturbed that this has happened, but what I will say is that everyone has fault. There is no one out there that is perfect, and just because you are saved doesn’t mean that you are delivered from everything. The bible says let every man work out his own salvation. If you are a sinner one day and get saved the next, doesn’t mean that everything that you did wrong is going to stop right then at that point. It is a process. Yes he is a man of God and is held at a higher level, by man and God, but the only on who has the right to judge him is God. I am deeply sorry that this has happened to Juanita because I truly respect who she is in Christ. All I can say at this point is that Yes we all know that it happened, but instead of looking down at him, lets pray that God will touch him and deliver him from this spirit and pray that this situation will make her stronger in the Lord. We need to encourage our brothers and sisters when they fall, because we have thing that we struggle with on a day to day basis, that people may not even know about, but God does. I just pray that he comes to repentence and let God minister to his heart as well as his wife’s. May God lead and guide both of them and may this event be to His Glory alone.

  • duality

    Is Bishop Weeks sure he can stand Prophetess Bynum’s FAVOR?

  • Swane

    I’ve seen all the verbal abuse Juanita has dished out during here screaming tirades years on TBN; all while peddling the gospel.

    Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.
    Galatians 6:7-8

    If all that screaming was from God then she should of reaped a spiritual harvest; But since most of it was a fleshly woman screaming her head off in self deception; then corruption was what she reaped…

    Cause, GOD IS NOT MOCKED

    The Fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge and wisdom.

    Not the opinions or Amen’s of Man or Woman.

  • gilly

    To the weeks family, this is your season so hold on, hold on, hold on God will see you through.

  • Stacey Flake

    I heard that she had confronted him about cheating on her with another man. That’s a shame and he beat her up which makes him less than a man! Please pray for Pastor Juanita Bynum!

  • Tan

    Discussion is good but let’s use this forum for continuous prayer for this man and woman of God. While most of us have never experienced this please understand that we can still help. The bible tells us that men should always pray.

    God Bless

    Ladies, those of us who have good Godly men should go to them and share with them how thankful we are to have them.

  • C. Allen

    TO PROFESSOR S:
    Prof, your point regarding the spelling and grammer is well taken bruh…but get over it! ;-)

    Now to the rest of youse:

    “AND WE KNOW that all things work together for good to those that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” – Romans 8:28

    Now, I feel for any sistah who gets hit by a man. But when the guy is twice her size, chokes her, throws her to the ground, and then kicks and stomps here – well – I question whether that man is “called” or loves god.

    Further there is talk that Tom Weeks is on the down-low too and that may be the basis for it all.

    Also, it’s been reported that Tom Weeks (rhymes with WEAK) told his congregation that he was going to silence the Profetess Bynum because she was too involved in the ministry THEY organizedthat SHE (probably) financed.

    Tom, what you need is a good woopin from a real man!

    Finally, brethern, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue and if there be any praise, think on these things.

    May God’s Love increase in us all and my Jah’s blesssings be upon Juanita and Thomas… .

  • may

    Jaunita you are in my prayers. You are a wonderful individual and the Lod knows it.The Lord put Bishop Weeks with you for a reason …I think that reason was that the Lord knew he wasn’t real and I guess thats why he needed you to show everyone who he really is.The lord did not want to harm you but it’s how the situation happen. So now people know or wondering who Bishop Week really is. I think hatered was a big part of it,on hatered would make a person do those unforgiving things.He would’ve try to kill you,because if no one intervined he probably would have.The lord is by your side and always will be.I love you Juanita and so may other people. Take care.

  • Peggy

    Know that God can and will restore. God gives us a choice to come to Him, the devil doesn’t, he go after what he wants and that’s the case here. The devil hates Juanita because of who God made her to be, so he went after somebody with power to tear down the kingdom. All of you out there with this negative attitude about this situation and talking about it like it’s the hottest gossip, you too are being use by the devil. Right now he’s got church folks talking about preachers like they are all bad (NOT SO). People, please wake up and recogize the attack of the enemy. Lift these people up and pray, let the devil know he ain’t winning this one.

  • Ms. Lee

    This situation reminds me of the movie “What’s Love Got To Do with It?” Ike became jelouse of Tina Turner’s success and became abusive.

    When a man is secure with himself it does not matter how successful his wife is because she is a part of him and represents him.

    So where is the love in the relationship between Juanita Bynum and Thomas Weeks?

    Tina finally saw the light, smelled the roses and terminated the relationship.

    Some people come into your life for a reason…some for a season…and some for a lifetime.

    Is the season over for Juanita and Thomas or is this a lifetime relationship?

    Only God knows the answer… .

    So, let’s join together in prayer at noon, whereever you are, and let God work it out in His time and way.

    It’s a new day and every day has its opportunities for you.

    All things work together for good for those that love Him and are called according to his purposes.

    Jesus said that if you love me then keep my commandments. The second commandment he gave is to love our neighbor as ourselves.

    Beating your neighbor or wife is not a sign of love and a violation of his commandment.

    When we violate His commandments we are not showing love to Jesus so all thing may not work together for our good because at that moment we are not loving Him.

    All actions have consequences and it is disturbing to see Christians justifying or making excuses for this behavior. If she has to leave this marriage I hope the Christian community doesn’t come down on her.

    Sometimes women stay in abusive relationships and pay the ultimate price…their lives. There is no room to put on aires that everything is ok now when it is not.

    Or spiritualize a crime that was committed. No doubt there will be many that will rally around Min.

    Weeks and excuse his behavior. Others will say that this is the work of satan without acknowledging that satan operates through people. That’s why Jesus called Peter satan when he told him to get behind him.

    If satan was attacking, he was attacking through Min. Weeks. Assault and battery is a crime and the fact that this happened in a public setting only highlights this atrocity.

    I pray for them both but if they need to go separate ways then so be it.

  • Manny

    These guys are in for the money – both Juanita and her crazy husband! When will the poor American people wake up and realize that religion is nothing other than people taking advantage of the poor, uneducated and ignorant souls? All these guys are simply running informercials on TBN to get your money! All of them, from Paul and Jan to TD Jakes to that creature called Benny Hinn! Give me a break. These people will never see my dime!

  • Pastor Stan Carroll

    Let it be known that there is an all out attack on covenant relationships. Because Prophetess Bynum operates at a high level of spiritual warfare, she becomes vulnerable to high level attacks. NEVERTHELESS, recognize this: David lusted, comitted adultery, and had the woman’s husband killed. Yet the BIBLE establishes David as Prophet, Priest and King! Who can phanthom the depth of God’s Love! There is grace and mercy available at the Mercy seat for these extraordinary leaders. TOUCH NOT HIS ANOINTED.
    THE FATHER WILL DEAL WITH HIS CHILDREN AS HE SEES FIT!

  • Denny

    I know this will sound harsh to some, but it’s time for the Church to grow up.

    The issue at hand is what occurred between this husband and wife, but sadly, abuse occurs everyday in somebody’s household. No woman or man should be abused by their spouse. The underlying issue however, is that not everyone standing in a pulpit has been put there by God. Jesus said that in the last days there would be false prophets. The bible says these folks would even be able to deceive the elect, if that were possible. Where is the evidence that these folks are called by God? There is more evidence to the contrary, but folks are determined make excuses and clean up behind these people. The same thing happened with Jim Bakker, Jimmy Swaggert, Ted Haggard, Clarence McClendon, ad infinitum. What’s it going to take for folks to stop supporting these folks and their money-making enterprises!

  • Eddie

    No matter how we or the world view this situation…the bottom line is God is the judge and our job is to pray for both of them so that the Holy Spirit will began to heal…I don’t know either of them personally, but certainly the body of Christ as a whole is affected, but know that from this situation, WE will still praise the Lord and testify of how HE will bring some good out of what was a horrible unfortunate situation…

    Again, pray and not judge!

  • Morningstar

    Pray for this, pray for that. That’s all you people call for is praying. Apparently all the praying in the world and still god didn’t answer. I wonder why…could it be that god was out to lunch and wouldn’t be around for 1 hr? It’s truly flabbergasting how you mentally deranged individuals are writing all of this senseless god (dog spelled backwards) babble. Praying doesn’t get anyone out of a jam…it’s defending yourself. And yes, a whole lot of common sense. What the bible doesn’t want anyone to exercise because maybe they’ll see that…GOD DOESN’T EXIST!!!!

  • ANITA

    I just want you to know that you are in my prayers and I pray that you have a speedy recovery. I am not going to bash anyone but I know that is no reason for any man to hit a woman, no reason. I pray for you and I also pray for him. God as always is in control.

    To evanlegist Juanita Bynum, this was clearly an attack of the enemy, the Bible says that we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities, against powers against the rulers of the dark of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. So my sister you hold on, because what the devil meant for your evil God meant it for your good. God has a plan in this. He used the enemy so he could take you to the next level.

  • Jerome

    I wish you fake Christians stop trying to find scriptures to excuse this PUNK!!! He beat is woman!!! NO EXCUSE!!! You people need to WAKE-UP!!!!!!!!

  • Bishop Hall

    If I understand correctly, Bishop and Juanita Weeks were meeting alone to try and RECOCILE. Maybe they need to meet with someone if they LOVE each other. There is a thin line between love and hate. Do we know the circumstances that led to the split? Do we know what caused the attack? Until we KNOW let’s not judge, but pray that God brings about what’s best for them both. A second grader’s test is easier than a thesis for your Ph. D. These Ph. D’s have a hard test to pass, let’s help them get through it.

  • kim

    This is a prime example for why God says ” do not base your faith on the knowledge of man but on the power of God”. Alot of christians are hurting now because of this situation, church hurt is nothing to play with, it has a long lasting effect on people, I have been going through that for some time now, God can give us all we need, not man or woman.

  • http://www.product-reviews.net/2007/08/23/juanita-bynum-badly-beaten-by-husband-bishop-thomas-weeks/ chozen

    We must be very careful as ministers of the Gospel. Becacause we are called to a higher standard than the lay member. The both of them are aware that this is the law of receprocity. You can not go to a mans church to preach one day, meet him and his wife then all of a sudden decide that you want him and that God gave him to you when he was already married to someone else. As a man and head, you also have to accept accountability for already having a wife and because the famous juanita bynum wants you, you discard the wife God gave you. Furthermore, they were warned after she miscarried that chiled in the bahamas, that she was not supposed to marry that man. She was to repent. I am hurt that the public has had to suffer such disgrace.

  • Anita

    I am praying for them both! The Scripture says: When a man ways pleases the Lord; He will make his enemy be at peace with him. We please God when we walk in the Spirit because there is no good thing in the flesh! The Flesh can’t please God and if we aren’t subject to God the Flesh will take dominion and this is the results! If they become Godly Sorry; this marriage and their lives can be restored through their submission to God. God is a forgiving God and they must forgive one another!

  • Me

    God is sending a message to the Church’s Please read Revelation 3:2

    I share His Words with each of you that was given on last year:

    The Heavenly Father is moving by His might. Think it not strange that talks of the war ending is now on the lips of man…
    The Bowing arrow have I placed in the arms of man. This Bowing arrow is able to shoot across nations with the power that I have imparted into it.
    Think it not strange what I doing in the body of Christ. I’m tired of the spirit of Hypocrisy that you call church, ministry and worship…
    The desire to become more intimate with Me is no longer a desire of man.
    Quick messages is all that some need…
    True holiness and worshipping is what I’m looking for….
    My children have long ago lost the desire to find the heart of Me.
    If you would take the time and find Me I will be waiting.
    Trust me as I began to restore this world/universe back to it’s future state.
    The work has just begun…Many blessing and miracles shall be released upon this universe…
    They shall know that it is Me…No other will be able to take credit for what I’m about to do…
    The blind shall see again, cancer shall be a symptom of once was…
    A cure is fastly approaching…doubt not what I’m saying unto my people..
    I’m a God that shall not lie…
    Have I not held true to my Word?
    Have I not showed many of you the mystery of things to come? Watch as I begin to show you signs and miracles…. I’m not done with the churches.
    Purity must come forth, before I usher in the very present of Me….Just trust Me.

  • Elder Jameel Smith

    I pray for your mercy in grace in this marriage, father I pray that you would release your grace upon both of them. I ask in the name of Jesus that you would move on their behalf .I ask that you would allow their spiritual children to stay strong in the name of Jesus.To continue in the Faith. To guide & lead the congregation in the name of Jesus.I pray that though all the truth be revealed. I asked that you would stir up the intercesstors in the body of christ, that the anointing may provail in their lives.In Jesus mighty name amen!

    I encourage all believer to hear the direction of the holy spirit.If God speaks to you to pray ,then pray.If he say fast, than fast.Yet, do not fall in the trap of the enemy & come up against them. If were not for God telling someone to pray for you or some staying in the gap for you, you would not be where your at. I don’t know to much about Bishop Weeks, yet I do know Juanita is a spiritual mother in the body of Christ & because of her obedience many have experience an encounter with God. Her marriage did nothing but expanded their territory in the Body of Christ. See that this is an attack in keep them both in prayer.Also be care about what you stay about them.

  • Antonio Green

    the report says that he abrubtly left…if that is trus then she should’ve let him go and went home and prayed

  • Kathy

    The fact that they were already separated makes me wonder has this happened before and maybe she left him for her own safety. Also, they met at a public location which also makes me think that she didn’t want to meet this man, her husband, in a private location due to concern about her safety. Of course, this is all speculation but the truth is that a “christian” man has beat his wife. Christians should be outraged and in prayer at the same time. The bible does not tell us NOT to be angry. We, as Christians should be angry. This is unacceptable behavior for believers. This doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t forgive but please pray for this man and all men like him. And PLEASE pray for Juanita and all women like her who have endured rage and physical abuse from the men that are our husbands. God can heal the wounded and broken. I pray that she will be made whole again through Christ Jesus and use this as a testimony to others who are experiencing the same turmoil in their relationships. God is the only answer.

    I have read the comments and while I understand and agree with most the one thing I do not understand is why do we insist on treating our leaders like they are infallible not prone to mistakes. Stop looking at the fact that they are spiritual leaders and look at the fact that they are human beings prone to error. Prone to make mistakes. THEY ARE HUMAN striving for the crown which means that they will make mistakes! This was a couple having problems and trying to work it out, things truly got out of hand. So now we have all of the so-called DEEP christians now standing passing judgement. I mean really!

    Now don’t get me wrong, what Bishop Weeks did was horrible but nobody knows what REALLY went on between the two. What was said that night of what their marriage was like. My main concern is that what ever was said caused this man to snap. I mean he was to the point that if the doorman had not pulled him off of her he could have killed her. What could have possibly made him that angry. It is horrible because this goes on in and out of the church because people refuse to see and accept the human side of christianity. It is really sad because if this went on in the marriage, then she became like most women determine to stick it out for love instead of leaving. Then to be a leader of God it is even harder because it is as if we are not allowed to have human moments and fall because of fear of being judged. People has judge them for getting married and now they will be judged for this. Already people are taking sides instead of praying for their broken souls. I can only imagine what the two are feeling ar this moment. Apart from their love and now this. The disappointment that they must feel. One because this man I love so much has struck me and two I struck the woman God gave me to love and care for. I weep for these two because it now open the door for so many things good and bad. With God’s help I believe they will get past this

    I pray for them both and hope that God will allow them to work out their differences peacefully with true forgiveness and pray that they have an awesome testimony to share with the world of what God has done for them.

    REMEMBER!!!! THEY ARE STILL GOD’S ANOINTED! Please be mindful of what you say.

  • Evangelist

    Don’t criticize the incident it is already enough pain in the situation. I understand pain I have been where they are
    now! God is still in control nothing happens by chance, there is always a reason. Nothing happens that God is not aware of. This is going to work out for the GOOD because they are called according to HIS purpose! I want to serve the powers of darkness this notice; Jesus came to destroy the works of the enemy, and according to Isaiah 54:17 NO
    weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper and every
    tongue that rise up against thee in judgement thou shalt condemn for this is the heritage of the servants of the Lord
    for their righteousness is of me saith the LORD! So watch your tongues. Pray for them don’t touch them with your Mouth
    God got this under control can you see it! Stop being critical and judgemental. Pray for the Woman and Man of God
    and consider first YOURSELF! None is perfect but the Father,
    so you that are without sin cast the first stone, If you cast a stone look out check yourself,I bet you are hit!!!!!

  • Mellisha

    He who is without sin please cast the first stone. Remember we all have sinned and fallen short. Lets keep them in our prayers and keep our mouths off of them and their marriage. And remember that the ultimate marriage symbol is the relationship between Christ and the church.

    This man should be prayed for no more than any of us are prayed for. His actions should be taken as a grain of salt next to eyeryone elses actions. It matters little his position or to where his enlightenment should be in our eyes. He is a man. Reguardless of reading the bible and making speaches to its content. He is a man. That many of you seem to be looking upon his actions in a different light because of his status give an indication to how we feel in general about battery of the opposite sex. I know and can say with confidence it is wrong in any light and from any person. This man and the rest of us should reexamine what his speeches spoke of because a person pure of heart would not batter a spouse. If you show none of the virtues you speak of, who should listen to you. Unless of course the purpose all along was never enlightenment and only illusion. I know that love is all its about on this level. Perhaps it time others spoke the questions their souls have been yearning to answer. This Bishop is but a man, steeped in himself. Perhaps we should be opening our ears and shutting our collective mouthes. You may be surprised by what you hear.

    “Bishop” Weeks is a disgrace and an animal, no ,man standard would beat his wife, and annointed wman, much less in a parking lot at a hotel.

    I am so sorry this had to happen, now we know that people of God are human. Be very careful who you put faith in. Because man or woman will fail you.

  • Tom

    No matter how high an African American climbs, the ghetto in him/her will always bring him/her down! Such was the case with Lionel Richie’s ex-wife who beat the crap out of him for cheating and effectively destroyed his career in 1987. Such was the case with O.J. Simpson who…well, you can finish that one. Such was the case with Rev…Did I say Rev? Jesse Jackson? Who fathered a child out of wedlock after realizing his dream of becoming a President was the same as that of Paris Hilton becoming a Nun! Such was the case with Eddie Murphy who picked up a transsexual hooker on Sunset Blvd. only to be picked up by the cops and later fathered a child with one of the spice girls? Such was the case with Wesley Snipes who despite reports that he’s worth millions, he still had to get involved in scams that cheated the IRS? The IRS? You can’t cheat them guys! C’mon Snipes, you thought this was a drug user that you were cheating when selling cocaine in the ghetto? Such was the case with Whitney Houston who married that cocaine sniffer Bobby Brown and railroaded her career back to marijuana land and crack head Kingdom! Such was the case with Oprah…oh, no! Not her. I meant to say her and Condi Rice are the only ones with a ‘ghetto guard’ around them. All they need to do in order to destroy their careers is to marry a black American dude and it’s over baby! Need I say more?

  • ndw

    We all have our issues,just STOP and look at yours.These two have prayed over many,have helped many,so do what you suppose to do and just pray thats all they need we all have a story to tell,if the truth be told some of us would not like for our story to get out so judge not and then their is others who will do about anything to get a story just to make a buck;so lets be very careful about what we read and what we allow to go into our eargate.The devil is still your enemy don’t fall into his trap;after all she did preach on wisdom, us YOURS!!!

  • Ladonna

    I Just wanted to to say( Romans 8:28) all things work together for the good to those who love God and are called according to his purpose. Not some things or a few things BUT ALL things including this. Some people need to be careful about what they say about God’s people. Let us not for get that Gods ways are not our ways and his thoughts are much higher than ours. Often times when things happen we are often left only to wonder and spectulate about all the reasons why it happens when truefully we just don’t know at least until God reveals it. Right now God has not yet revealed the reason why this happend but you better believe that He is still in charge and is going to see them both through. I also want to say to those who think that being a christian is living a perfect life WELL that is not so christians are not perfect we strive to live our lives that way because God says to (1 Peter 1:14) “Be ye Holy becasue I am Holy” so we are supposed to live and walk as Jesus did but, brothers and sisters the bible also says ( Romans 3:23) that EVERYONE falls short of the Glory of God it’s not within our power to live a blamless life but by the power of the holy spirit. The Grace of God is what keeps us. So I concur what Bishop did was wrong right is right and wrong is wrong no matter who you are, but like Jesus said let he who is without sin cast the first stone. I bet my life that know one will be picking up a stone, because we all sin and fall short. God is going to use this situation to help a lot of people Prophetess and Bishop is being used mightly by God after all the bible says ( Romans 12:1) we are to present our bodies a living sacrafice holy and exceptable to God. Some people don’t know what that means. But when you come to christ and is in a place with God where He can use you – you become a living sacrafice meaning what ever God needs to do to save someone else it will be at your expence ( who did Jesus die for? He did not die for him self He died for you and me- we live now becuase He died). The bible also says in ( 1 Corinth 19&20) that we are no longer our own we have been bought with a price- that means that our lives do not belong to us in other words we do live for our selves we live our life for the advancment of the kindom of God so we are living for God that he can save someone else. So My heart and prayers go out to Phrophetess and her Husband I love them both and I will always stand with them she has allowed God to use her to change my life and the lives of many thounsands of people she loves Gods people and desire for us to be all that God is calling us to be. Because of her I know that pressure is my prophecy, I know that hurt and pain is for my gain, I know that when the devil throw his greatest attack that it’s conformation that God is getting ready to do something BIG. She has inspired me and caused me to seek the face of God like never before I thank God for her. Having said that get ready because God is getting ready to do something GREAT! P.S Do I need to remind some of you about what happend to
    miriam and Aaronin (NUMBERS 12:1) when they spoke agianst Moses saying that he was not a man of God that he was not hearing from God well Miriam was struke with lepersey it angers the Lord when people speak against his anointed.

  • STRONG FEELING83

    THIS IS a very DISSAPOINTING situation…yes,and WE SHOULD PRAY THAT the BOTH of them SEE THROUGH this horrific event. AT THE same TIME, WE still DO NOT KNOW how to assess THIS SITUATION. blah blah blah… OK..my TRUE feelings>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    Shall SHAME and GUILT be his only punishment?
    NO. If that were the case then EVERY man who physically abuses his wife or child could easily say “baby, I had a revelation after I sent you to the hospital” and be as free as a bird. What?…because he is a “man of God” he is not subject to the laws that this country have passed?(for GOOD reason I must add) I have faith that you will see where I’m coming from when i type “I’m a very forgiving person but, laws are laws. When they are broken it is to be considered as a CRIMINAL ACT….nothing less no matter the individual.”
    SCENARIO: A man goes to church EVERY Sunday and has done so since he was a toddler. He grows up and is still considered to be a “child of God” instead of a “man of God” because he chose not to preach for whatever reason. Long story short…he beats his woman one time because of the stress and frustrations that the past and present events of his life may have thrown at him. What then?…His wife is now faced with the difficult decision of pressing charges or not. Even though she is a Godly person and has forgiven him already out of her love for God and her husband, if it happens once, it can happen twice. THEN WHAT? Forgive him again?…..yes… BUT, if no charges are pressed…he’ll just go through spiritual imprisonment which can possibly cause him to be even more prone to commit another act of violence.In pre-conclusion, I believe he should serve the average penalty for his actions.
    If charged…the smartest thing for him to do would be to ask for solitary confinement and….a Bible:}

    ALWAYS REMEMBER: WE ARE all GODS CHILDREN…HE LOVES each and EVERYONE of us the same. If we STATE THAT because THIS MAN is in the ministry he should be forgiven and thats it….why do we have laws? For the “lesser” people in society? Sounds ugly doesn’t it?…This is what I’ve GATHERED FROM the previous statements. It may be THE WRONG WAY TO THINK about an incident of this matter but, it’s the way I think. (as you can tell…this is somewhat of a touchy subject for me) Harming another individual, regardless of gender, should be unacceptable in our society.

    oh yeah…yall try to stay away from the sauce…Communion SHOULD NOT be an everyday thing….if you drink… ask yourself “What am I drinking for?” after a little while…the guilt will cause you to make rational decisions…..annndd im gonna try to quit smoking using cherry flavored menthol cough drops:) try it…if it works…pass it along. as you can tell..i really dont wanna stop typing but … I got some prayin for these two (and myself) to do…….holla!!!

  • Come Let Us Reason Together

    We are living in a time when God is calling each of us to have a very intimate relationhip with Him. God stated in the Word that He is a jealous God. He will allow no other gods before Him. In the days ahead, we will see a lot of situations come to light because God will share His glory with no one (male or female). Remember that God allowed this to happen so that your eyes of understanding may be enlightened. The devil does not make us do anything. We are free-moral agents. We all makes decisions based on the data that we received. Sometimes the data is from our own minds, sometimes from the devil, and sometimes from the Holy Spirit. Remember Jesus said he rent the veil in two and we can all come boldly to the throne of Grace and that we no longer need a priest to go in on our behalf. Father God wants an intimate relationship with each of us. Remember Jesus said that I go to prepare a place for us however I will not leave you comfortless, I will leave you the holy spirit. The Holy Spirit will lead and guide us unto ALL TRUTH–however we have to spend time in the Word and praying to Father God, repenting of our sins, and purposing in our hearts not to be deceive least satan sift us a wheat.

    Continue to read and study the Word of God. Exalt Father God. Exalt Jesus. There is no other God. Jesus Christ is Lord. John 14:6 states “I am the way, the truth, and the Light, no man comes to the Father except through me.”

    Stay encourage and keep your eyes on the author and finisher of our faith. Be wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove. Watch and pray. Exalting only Jesus–the PERFECT one without SIN. Our only Saviour and Redeemer.

  • Morningstar

    Well, I’ll admit there Tom. You’re spoken like a TRUE Christian…A fascist, nazi, racist pig of a god-fearing Christian. All one need do is marry an african american and that’s it, their lives are over. Since you’re on the topic of race, let’s look at some of the so-called well-to-do whites. Let’s see…Roger Clemens beat the hell out of his White wife, but that’s ok because he’s white. After having his dick cut off by his wife Lorena, John Bobbit didn’t learn his lesson. He still beat the hell out his white girlfriend. Oh, but that’s ok…he’s white. I’m quite certain that you’ve beat the hell out of your white wife or girlfriend and justified yourself because hey after all you’re white. I could go on and on, but I won’t. And as if that’s not enough, your precious, fictitious, sci-fi, anti-semitic, racist, fascist, nazi, genocidal, homophobic, femicidal, rape infested, life-for-dummies, book you call the bible also condones such attrocities. I don’t condone any malevolent actions that people of colour commit against each other, however, do try to speak and through out some bullshit piety when you whites are no better.

  • D.A

    I am a follower of Prophetess Bynum I have read her book “No More Sheets” and other books of hers I have seen her in person and when I heard about the situation. The first thing that came to my mind was “No More Sheets”. God choose you to be set apart single and unmarried a vessel for his use to break down strong holds and to deliver and set free those that are bound and he equipped you with everything that you needed to have the victory. He made your pathway straight and told you to walk there in.I can only pray that you get back to Gods agenda. Much love for you your sister in christ D.A

  • Me

    This is bigger than Bishop Weeks and prophetess Juanita, God is sending out a message to His church and we are still not listening.

    I have been praying and asking what should the church learned from this situation….What He is saying…
    and He has spoken…Correction is in the land for the Church…

    He wants us as His people to turn back to our First Love and that is Christ…begin to look to Jesus who is the Author and the finisher our faith.

    This is not about how many people lives this couple has touched, how anointed they are….how many books they have wrote or how large their congregations happen to be…
    It’s teaching the Body of Christ to lean on Him and not on certain personalities to pray us into heaven…

    The Veil was rent I dare you to pray without certain personalities speaking into your life..
    God is able….He desire our personal intimacy with Him…

    My question is how is the church going to deal with this? Are we as leaders going to “silenced this again” with the religious slogans “touch not my anointing, judge ye not for you will be Judge”.

    I don’t know either of them, but God does…

    Hear me well I’m not standing in judgement…these are vessels of God. But has a prophetic people, we need to hear what God is trying to say to the Church…..

    God is listening and He will be the ultimate judge…
    Ready or not Here Jesus come…

    Be blessed….

    I’ve always said that God has his ways of revealing the truth. Most ministers hide behind the word of God, while flaunting the material things of the world. Mansions, private jets, jewelry, fancy cars, yet poverty is still on the rise.
    I am not condoning the assault, but there is always three sides to a story, in this case his, hers and the truth. “God is sending out a message to His church”

  • http://google lisa

    I am so grateful of God. He said what will be done in the secret will be open in the light. So people we need to be careful for blamein everything on the devil. I beleve that God is sick of tried of people who say they are of God to stop leading people astay. Thank God for this. He cares for his peoples. He don’t want us to put no man before Him. For he is a jealous God. Whatever He have to do to expose people He will do it. This is only the start of people in high authority been expose. Unless they repent and turn from there wicked ways. It will be expose in the open. You can belive that. Once again stop giving glory to the devil and thank God for this coming out. The reporters are only doing what they are there to do (being use). If God use a donkey He can also use them to get it out so the world will know. He is at work. Thank you God I give you all the glory. Amen

  • Gill

    I’m didgusted at the people who seem to be missing the point. This man who claims to be a man of God,who gets up in Church on Sundays to tell his congregation how to live. A purported piller of society.This man acted like a common punk. He beat a woman of God bloody. His Wife! What a shame! We as belivers are told to forgive and we do. We have to look at the actions of this man. What is going on in his soul. His darkness is coming to light. Guys we cannot forget ministers like Ted Haggert who feel they can have a public and private persona.Our God has a way of bringing wrong and wickedness into light. Peace

    why does everyone think junita is so innocent? just because she claims to be a godly woman is not always true. satan transforms into a marvel of light as well as his followers. i’m not saying that junita is one but whos to say that she’s not. look at all of these crooked big name preachers thats been brought down by the powerful hand of GOD, dont let those fake tears and speaking in their tounge fool you. people this is just the tip of the iceberg, a lot of wholly roly heads are going to fall before JESUS comes back. they twist the words in the BIBLE and when you check them on it, their quick to call you the anti-christ yeah right. read the word for yourselves and ask GOD for understanding.

    People listen, we as saints need to die daily and bring this flesh(self) under subjection to the Lord. Yes this is terrible what happened to our sister in Christ but usually it’s our cousin, sibling, or mother we “men” are destroying. It shouldn’t take for our sister Juanita, who is well known, to get beat on before WE cut this crap out and surrender to God. All of our women deserve better. If we walk in the flesh we will do the things of the flesh, but if we walk in the spirit we will do the things of the spirit. Yeah i know, easier said than done, but with God it gets done! I’m not putting Mr. Weeks on this level at all, but he a stupid thing like David, Peter, Abraham, Moses, and many other men of God.

    Pray without ceasing saints.

    NO excuse for the action nor the reaction but I would like to know how do you get the women, who have Godly men for husband,how do you get the women to submit to respect the men in their lives many are verbale abuser I am grown I dont have time I will see you when ever I gets back from God knows where and when they are in posistion mmmmmmmmmm you may see them on their way out and to be with them you have to get an appointmet if you can catch up to them never any time OK.I think that because he says he is a saved or Godly man he will never resort to medthod of physcal violence I was taugh that when you are angry you become tempoarly insane mmmmmmmmmm what you think.

  • charlotta

    The biggest problems we as christians have is exaimining ourselves,I believe any man that hits a woman lacks something within his self, but I also beleive that their were signs that indicated something was not right,However we as christians we need to pray for everyone involved.The devil is working over time to destroy every woman and man of God. Jesus is daily giving us signs that he is about to return,so what ever any one is doing in the dark, it will come to the light.So as we examine our issues and flaws, we must pray for each other and for ourselves.the devil hates when we our selves admitt our faults and repent, and ask God to help us, because he knows that he loses power when we become empowered with God’s word and stop the sin he held over us. So we Must Pray, and continue to tell the world that God is real and he loves them. We must fight To Do right.So Pray for each other and pray that Mr.weeks and juanita get help and forgive.

  • Me

    A poster mentioned we’re all doing a lot of talking. I think that’s because this issue has affected us all. But, I also think we learned something – that our leaders CAN be fallible too though sometimes it seems that sheep are the only ones that need prayer. But leadership needs our prayers, too and that’s our job. Please, let’s keep these two up in prayer.

  • Me

    I’m preparing a ram in the bush for My people..
    A teacher of leaders shall be raised up to teach My people My principles
    Many have strayed away and began to do something’s that is not of Me…
    Many are asking what is the new move that is happening upon this earth?
    This new move is Me..and I am separating the Sheep’s from the Goats!!
    No more shall man take credit for what I have done!!!
    This universe is in a turnaround stage…I shall release a new mantel upon this earth
    A second chance for the body of Christ to get it right…through this dispensation of time
    I shall release specific instructions as to how to resurrect My way of doing church, worship and deliverance of people hearts so that they can be turned back to Me who is the Father of this universe..
    My heart grieves as I watch from on high of the multitude of sins that is happening.
    It’s almost like Sodom and Gomorrah happening all over again…and the church is silent on these things… I wonder why?
    Is no one willing to stand up and sound the alarm to the destruction that is happening to men and women?
    Have you begun to serve baal? Have you begun to turn your faces and look the other way?
    Shouldn’t you be your brother’s keeper? Who is praying for the deliverance of My people?…Who is fasting for the deliverance of My people?
    I shall allow a dispensation of time for this correction of My house to take place
    My leaders shall take their rightful place or I shall remove the lamp stand!!
    Allow My glory to permeate your worship. By doing this chains shall fall off of My people and deliverance shall be this world portion…
    Just allow My spirit into your worship. Allow Me to be God of this universe….
    So much needs to be done in this world and My leaders are not listening.
    Finery and sweet sounding sermon is what’s upon them now…
    But My Word shall come forth.even if I have to use the little babies.
    Much mystery shall be revealed… Many manifestations shall happen.
    Watch Me as I shall show this world that I’m the Lord that strengthen thee and hold the keys too heaven and hell.
    Disobedience shall no longer be tolerated

    Thus saith the Lord of Host..

  • femfem

    This is no good news for the body of Christ.
    It baffles me that preachers (leaders) who we hold in high esteem do find themselve in this situation.
    Its just like what David said concerning Saul ” How are the mighty fallen”
    Its a reflecton of walking according to the flesh, and not in the spirit.
    Certainly the person and the leading of the Holy spirit has been relegated, just as in the case of Saul.
    What happened to the LOVE thats supposed to be shared abroad from our hearts by the Holy spirit.

    Being called to lead God’s people is high calling as a sheperd. God entrusts His word and His people to that one that is called to lead His people. Its about lives and souls of Gods’s people. Ministry is about serving/satisfying others, not yourselves.

    It is true no one is perfect, and we are all subject to dictates of the flesh.
    Its true everyone has got “issues”.
    I do believe that as a preacher, extra care must be taken in doing everything tha eventually get public.
    Will I seek marriage counsel from someone who’s marriage ain’t working right? Certainly NOT !!
    What happens the herd or sheep who’s sheperd has been struck.

    I feel this is a reflection of the society; where you have unprecedented level of marriage failures.
    Husbands love (???) your wives, and wives submit to your husbands (???).
    What is about this love and submission thats so difficult.
    The bible defines these, and shows how to practise them.
    Any deviation from this leads to failure.

    I do believe it is not the will of God, and we should pray for the undiluted knowledge of God to increase all over the world in truth. Lets pray for wisdom, so that we can doers of the word.

  • Lynda Lyons-Williams

    No man has the right to beat/hit woman. Coming from an abusive relationship—something that I was very shameful of I had to pray and move on, before my husband killed me. Out of this terrible nightmare I became a strong woman to testify to other women that are going through abusive relationships to get out–and save yourself. Juanita, testimony is going to reach and help a multitude of people—all genders and all races both men and woman. Even as shameful this situation is—facing will bring the healing.
    GET WELL JUANITA AND BE BLESSED!!!!!!!!!

    for any human being to beat another human being with so much hate was an act of satan. he is the creator of hatred. When you have a personal relationship with the Father, you seek the Kingdom first. Weeks has some serious problems only God can remove. The lust for the the dollar is a direct line to satan.yes we all need to pray for the Weeks family and God will answer prayer, His way and in His time

  • Tammie

    I , would like to THANK GOD for sparing the life of Juanita Bynum and also pray that things work out for the best for her. As far as her husband is concerned I am glad that he were stopped in his act and were caught because she may have been like I were and that is afraid to cry out for help. This is one of the awful things that we are experiencing here in todays sosciety and this issue needs to be address more . There are so many women and men that need to be helped in this situation and hopefully this will be a instance where because this has happen to one of our top spirtual leaders that it will bring about a change . May GOD bless you all and lets all join in in prayer.

  • Tammie

    I made two type-o’s sorry the spelling is society not sosciety and the last few words should be lets all join in prayer. Please excuse .

    I have read enough and those who are attacking the Prophtess lets me know we’re truly in the last days, how cohorts of the devil have the audacity to speak ill of her in the manner I find so offensive. She is an annointed vessel of god and I have followed her ministry for over a decade. The only person she and we need to answer to is Jehovah Jirah our provider, Jehovah Rapha, he’s the only one who can heal this world and this situation. Who are we to judge and cast them down? Believe it or not, Our parents who started the human race were ADam and Eve, the deception caused them to fall but god forgave them. In saying this, prophetess is the decendants as well as we, isn’t she not human! Can evil spirits afflict us at times and cause this sort of shame to be upon us. I still have faith and know that deep down when she recovers, god will releash his out pouring of the greater and latter anointing on her that the message she has from all of this will bring the back-sliders, sinners and cohorts of the devils to know that God has the glory and he will allow whatever to come upon us becuase he’s God!! He can do whatever and whenever he wants too. I must say, that those who have discredit this woman of God, best to believe, god will punish those and cause 911 to be in the lives of those who have mocked his annointed one and him. Thus saith the lord!!

    I love you prophetess and can’t wait to see you shake the devil off and exel in his excellence.

    Amen

  • Blessed

    This woman is a powerful woman of god and she will bounce back, because she has a lot in her. The lord has invested too much in here for the enemy to just come in and completely destroy her. This is for the glory of god, there must be a shaking in both of their lives in order for them to preach to others. So we need not pass judgement, judgement belongs to God and only him.

  • Cheryl

    I have thought about Juanita everyday since the terrible tragedy happened. I believe that God is showing us “that the heart is desperately wicked, who can know it?” Only God can truly know the depths of our heart. Junanita did not know the depths of evil in that man. He probably did not know it himself. God is showing women that we really need to know a man before we get let our hearts get involved and that takes TIME. As annointed as Juanita is and she was fooled, do the rest of us not need to be ever so careful. I’m sure she never dreamed in a million years that her husband and man of God would do such a thing, but people are WICKED especially if they are not walking close to God. It is obvious that HE WAS NOT!!! If she decides to take him back that is her choice but I wouldn’t trust him any futher than I can see him. Sure you are told to forgive and I’m sure she has. That is just the kind of godly woman that she is. I love Juanita and all women because we have it so hard with men these days. Our only hope is in the Lord. He will see us through. God bless you all.

  • someone

    ok everyone is talking about praying and things even though it isn’t bad but someone needs to to knock some snice into the preacher i would sew him so bad…………………………………………………….god just needs to help her

  • lissa

    what kind of husband beats up there wife especially bishop he needs to go to jail for a long time b/c he beat his wife for no reason

  • Cinny

    All the Abrahamic Faiths Advocate Extreme Patriarchy. Subjugation of the Woman is as Essential to these Faiths as Cheese to Pizza. They even worship an all Male Trinity, 3 Male Dieties, and No Female Deities. The Trinity Family should be Father/Mother/Child, but instead it is Father/Child/Him. So could this be the first Gay Family? Are christians Worshiping a Gay Family model? What happened to Mom. You raped her and beat her up and told her not to try out for the Trinity?

  • Ngozi Ukaere

    CHILDREN OF GOD HAS ANYONE SEEN OR THOUGHT OF THIS AS AN ATTACK ON THE KINGDOM OF GOD.THIS IS THE TIME WE ALL SHOULD BE ON OUR KNEES AND PRAY FOR THE SERVANTS OF GOD. INSTEAD OF JUDGING THEM PLEASE PRAY FOR THEM THIS IS REALLY SAD.MAN AND WOMAN OF GOD PLEASE GET TOGETHER AND SORT THIS OUT TO THE GLORY OF GOD AND THE SHAME OF THE DEVIL.CONSIDER THE FLOCK THE LORD HAS GIVEN TO YOU.REMAIN BLESSED

  • Al

    True, the bible tells us to “not touch the anointined and do His prophets no harm”. However, the issue at stake is not the anointing or their calling. This man should go to jail and suffer the consequences of his actions. As for both of them, why the cover up? Shouldn’t they have stopped ministry and reconciled before the explosion? The word tells us that if we are at ought with our spouses and it is not resolved, He doesn’t hear us. These people are generals in God’s army. Many people follow them. Many souls are their responsiblity. They need not to return to ministry until they are healed.

    FOLKS!!! This is not a game! Come right with God. Past sensationalism and commercializing the gospel, we need rightousness restored in the earth. And it starts with our leaders.

    Many sheep in this time has gone scattered because of these action. WHERE are the prophets? Why do we have to hear from the secular media about this? Who will stand and address the people of God, and stop the confusion and distress? Were are the Paul’s, who at the very sound of a rumor, brought it to light and addressed it with authority, and encourage the people of God.

    This is not a private matter. These actions caused a ripple effect throughout the world. The world is watch what will we do next.

    I say, pray for both of them and strengthen them. It doesn’t matter what title you have or how “anointed” you may be, first you are human and children of God. God is still a Just God and requires a greater standard being leaders.

  • Michael

    Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob were chosen. Moses was hand picked by God. David was God’s anointed. We know that each of these had their falls… But the fall was not the end of the story. God’s victory and deliverance are the overwhelming themes in the lives of these.

    Indeed we should not justify sin. I pray God’s strength and wisdom. I bind the lies of the enemy that might come to do battle with the minds of God’s saints. We know that we all who are in Christ are new creatures. That we’ve been set apart for the work of the ministry. Indeed, we are the righteousness of God through Christ Jesus. The key…, through Christ Jesus, not of ourselves, it is the work of God.

    Remember that the prayer of a righteous man (or woman) availeth much. Know, also, that if you are called of God, that you are righteous…, because God has declared you so. And God said let there be light and there was light. In the same way, God has declared you righteous in Christ.

    Now, may our prayers Go before the throne of God as a sweet incense.

    (…he who exalts himself shall be humbled and he who humbles himself shall be exalted.)

  • Jehovah1

    Whoa, Whoa, Slow down.

  • bk

    we fall down,as christian we get back up again. i pray for your strength and that in the lord. no man can give to you.
    pray kep praying. the lord will see you through.

  • Ellen Durrett

    Because a religious man beats his wife who is an inspirational writer, it is all over the web…but what about all the women and men being abused by their spouse now. Don’t forget to pray for them too.

  • duality

    Above all, you must understand that no prophecy in Scripture ever came from the prophets themselves or because they wanted to prophesy. It was the Holy Spirit who moved the prophets to speak from God.
    2 Peter 1:20-21 NLT

  • http://myspace.com/kijanaL Servant of the Lord

    May we keep all in prayer, may we pray for all like we are in there situation. Earnestly praying like when Elijah prayed for it not to rain for 3 years, and his prayer was answered. The Lord said,”by this they will know that you are my disciples, if you love….one another. May we all…love each other, not thinking more of ourselves as we ought to think as Paul says. Praying in faith, reading the Bible daily, that we may put out the fiery missles of the enemy-Ephe 6:13-18.

    If the Lord already overcame the world then it is overcome. If the Lord said for the slave is not greater than his Master. Then as Jesus suffered we will suffer. If the Lord said peace I leave with you, and peace I give to you, then we will also have peace. Please…I can’t say this enough read the Bible for yourselves. It’s as the crafty serpent decieved Eve, we need to know the word of God that we may not be carried away by any wind of doctrine as Paul says.

    If we are reading, and we get to know the true and living God, then we can teach the gospel to others. We must stand firm, no matter what trial we go through, knowing that it only makes us stronger. May we stand together because we are all…part of the body of Christ. We are brothers and sisters in the faith. Please….know that man is not perfect, and the word says that the righteous will fall seven times and get back up again. If we are truly seeking God for ourselves then we need not put the blame on anyone but ourselves if we have followed someone else, they also have their own issues.

    When I go to church I go to be fed in spirit with the word of God, but if the pastor does not feed me the word, I WILL EAT IT FOR MYSELF. The Lord is our daily bread. Remember in the beginning of John the word says,”in the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God, and He(Jesus) was in the beginning with God. Which means Jesus our Lord was in the beginning with God the Father. The Lord was the Word, our daily bread, so we must read our word to seek Him.

    May we not point fingers but fast and pray with all…sincerity. For we serve an awesome God, a spontaneous God who walked among the streets not planning His days out but healing the sick, and sitting in the midst of sinners. At times when we make wrong decisions, and mistakes, God is the only one who truly forgives us because He knows our hearts. We need to look upon others as the Lord does, and forgive. If we do not forgive, we will not be forgiven. Just think about Bishop Weeks for a minute, we don’t know how he feels or if he’s beating himself up about what he did, and God will still forgive him.

    When the adulteress came to Jesus there were those who talked about her, and wanted to stone her to death, but what did Jesus say, him who has no sin, cast the first stone, and they all walked away. Why? because they could not condemn her, or they would be condemned. They had a plank or two in there own eye.

    When we think of the lifestyles we lived before we became new creatures in Christ, think about Bishop Weeks, for as we asked for forgiveness for our evil ways, and God forgave us, God will also forgive Bishop Weeks.

    Saints I hope we all live Christlike, and be true…disciples and servants of the Lord, each after God’s own heart, as king David. Then we will really know the Lord’s will for all…His children, for God wants none to perish. Love and blessings to all of you…

    You are delivered from the power of darkness in Jesus name amen.

  • Burton

    Well…can you say DRAMA!!!

    Juanita went from rags to riches…

    Then she married a no count jack preacher…

    Juanita leaves Tom because he was physically abusing her…

    Tom beats the CFO of his church, chocking, body slamming and stomping her.

    The wounded CFO asks two female church co=workers to take her to the hospital for emergency treatment but Juanita enlists the help of the co-workers and pursuades the beaten CFO not to go for treatment becauce the beating would be reported to the police…

    Then Tom calls the police falsely tells the police he just grabbed the lady by the arm and escorded her from the church property because he fired her and she got into an argument with her. The CFO had been working for Tom for more than 10 years (way before he met and married Juanita)The CFO is still on the church payroll.)

    Because he couldn’t hang he was evicted from their 2.4 mil pad…

    Tom decided to ban Juanita from the church she co-founded…

    Still a failure, Tom meets with Juanita to reconcile…
    Something happened and Tom beat, choaked, kicked and stomped Juanita…

    Tom runs away from the crime scene.

    Juanit goes for medical treatment but leaves before the police come.

    Juanita files charges against Tom for the brutal beating (but later tells a TBN television audience and Atlanta television news reported that even though she filed to divorce Tom, she was no going to say anything agains Tom because he is a good and brilliant man.

    Juanita Also says that even though she was divorcing Tome this time…she would marry him a second time because she still loves him.

    Tom files a formal response to all of this by saying that the devel made him do it and the media made things look worse than the were/are. Besides Tom says: “There are two sides to every story” and the rest of the story has not been told yet.

    I wonder what’s next?

    Don’t be surprised…probably more DRAMA!!!

  • Jeniferthehen

    I hope Juanita drops the dud. Help other women in the same predicatment as she was is.

  • bushbehindbars

    And how is this surprising? A couple of power hungry ‘preachers’, preying on the weak minded sheeple for profit. These people are nothing but charlatans, grifters, snake-oil salesman. People who self-identify as ‘religious’ (as opposed to spiritual) are easy marks, and the televangelists know it. Look no further than Jan and Pat Crouch of tbn fame. What a couple of slimy criminals. Anybody who believes that crap is way past due for a head check.

  • G Strain

    The DA should pick up the case. Just because she is a women of God does not give him the right to walk. I hope his church sat him down.
