• What Did T.D. Jakes Say about Homosexuality?

    Defending Marriage Staff - August 11, 2015


    Yesterday, Defending Marriage linked to an article by Christian News Network which revealed disturbing comments made by T.D. Jakes about the “LGBT community” and the black church. Since then, confusion has arisen in the public sphere as to the accuracy of this article. Jakes himself has claimed that his words were misconstrued. We highly recommend that anyone who is confused about the context of Jakes’s comments watch the original Huffington Post interview from end to end (you can view it here). Analyze Jakes’s comments about the “LGBT community” and the church coexisting in light of 2 Corinthians 6:14, “Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?”
