There have always been rumors about Bishop T.D. Jakes son being gay.Check this excerpt from an article I found on Gay Christian Movement Watch:
"TD Jakes made his fortune preaching as if he had some sort of intuitive reading on the human condition. But oddly, as he has risen in popularity, his statements about homosexuality are less defined.
Some believe this is because one of his twin sons is gay. The young man was spotted at a black gay club in Atlanta during the popular 2006 MegaFest. One of the more recurrent search questions bringing people to GCM Watch is “TD Jakes’ gay son”, so there is considerable talk already out there. Reportedly, the young man has already told his father he is gay. If this is the case, as the reader pointed out to me, TD Jakes is repositioning himself by linking with Dr. Phil’s dangerous ideology. Would Dr. Phil tell TD Jakes the same thing he told “Christine”? Your son’s homosexuality is inherited and immutable, so just accept it and support him. Would Dr. Phil tell TD Jakes that? And would TD Jakes accept it as truth?
I feel for any parent faced with dealing with their child’s sins. But the answer is not to align yourself with people who espouse beliefs contrary to the scripture. We reported to you how one Atlanta pastor completely turned away from what he had previously believed in the scripture because his son was homosexual. Will TD Jakes be caught in that same trap by his relationship with Dr. Phil?"(END OF EXCERPT)Read the whole article here.
Now,the truth may be coming to the forefront.Jermaine Jakes was arrested for indecent exposure. Here's more from CBS11:
"Jermaine Jakes, son of The Potter's House pastor T.D. Jakes, has been arrested and charged with indecent exposure.
According to a Dallas Police Department arrest warrant affidavit obtained by CBS 11 News, Jakes exposed himself to two undercover vice detectives at Keist Park on January 3.
The affidavit says Jakes walked up to one of the detectives at the park with his pants unzipped. Jakes then began to masturbate while making eye contact with the detective, according to the affidavit.
The detectives arrested Jakes on a charge of indecent exposure."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
