A video has sparked some serious discussion within the Christian community. All of the links will spell out the situation as it stands, but the real issue is P4CM, and who they really are……. This ministry is getting ready to be on an HBO documentary, yet they have a serious Biblical issue.
My real problem is with Christians who want to act like nothing happened. Pastor Justin Cox of Passion 4 Christ Movement has embraced these guys, but rebukes a sinner, Jay-Z for his lyrics. Once Justin Cox put on the Title of Pastor that made him responsible for the P4CM flock. He has come against the prosperity gospel, yet one of the main advertisers of the EX-Shirts is Canton Jones, a member of, “Prosperity Preacher”, Creflo Dollar’s church. Holla atchya boy Canton. What’s worse is Creflo’s HERETICAL DOCTRINE/ANOTHER GOSPEL of Jesus not being God. Address that Pastor Cox, and I will be sure to hype that up.
Here are some key and essential facts. No one knows how long the various affairs of the guys and the women involved have been occurring. One thing for sure is that they are still living public lives as if nothing happened. Now I believe in forgiveness, and I believe in discipline, for I have received both, as well as having to do both. The other fact is that these “indiscretions” did not happen on moments notice. So with that said, how did these scandals come to light, and how long have they been going on?
ALL OF THIS EXPOSURE WOULD HAVE NEVER COME TO LIGHT HAD PASTOR COX FOLLOWED BIBLICAL PRINCIPLES IN JUDGING. WHAT’S MORE, HAD PASTOR COX EMBELLISHED A LITTLE ELDER OVERSIGHT, THIS WHOLE MESS WOULD NOT HAVE COME TO THIS.
I am just taken aback how ministry’s that are so cutting edge, believe they are immune to error, criticism, and fellowship with outsiders.
PART 1
Now all P4CM has to do is explain why they are deeply involved with a Christian, whom they have not judged openly, but rather embraced, who has sinned publicly, but will JUDGE OPENLY, a sinner who disses Jesus Christ, as would be expected. Here’s a piece of the puzzle.
This radio interview from GOSPEL RAPPER Da Truth gives us some insight on where and from whom he got is RAP STYLE. P4CM (PASSION 4 CHRIST MOVEMENT), where the Pastor is Justin Cox, just recently berated Jay-Z, a sinner, for dissing Christ. This ministry also has Da Truth promoting their Ex-Shirts with his special Ex-Sinner shirt.
Go to the 1 hour 5 minute mark and listen from there.

Start listening at the 33:00-35:00 minute mark. She says PEOPLE (plural) in the Gospel Rap Game not representing Christ. She calls their actions SCANDALS. What’s next?

PART 4- THE SCANDALS
An Apology from Emanuel L. Lambert, Jr. – Da’ T.R.U.T.H.

“I prayerfully ask that our privacy be respected at this time.”
I agree with this statement, but how does one expect that to occur with a current myspace page with concert dates?

Now to the other scandals
“Confused? Well, here’s the recap in a nutshell: Tye cheated on his wife with a choir member who was his good friend’s baby’s mother. Da’ T.R.U.T.H., Tye’s mentor, then cheated with Tye’s wife.
Until recently Tye Tribbett has been highly critical of the moral values of mainstream artists such as Beyoncé and Omarion. He also called on people not to wear clothes by rappers Sean “Diddy” Combs and Jay-Z because they “carry their spirits.”
Earlier this year, Da’ T.R.U.T.H.’s label-mate, gospel rapper Ambassador, also admitted to a ‘moral failure in his marriage’.”

Da Truth has come out with a public statement of repentance, Praise God Brother, and let us meditate upon His Word so that we may not sin against Him.
It sounds like your upset more than anything that you won’t be getting an HBO blog. Pastor Justin’s videos clearly were not for gossip but that seems to be all you got out of it and it is sad.

You sound like a fan. Had I not known a personal friend of Justins, I would have never known about the documentary. Now what does that tell you?
If you check the date, I believe this was written before they even got the HBO Documentary, not Blog.
And actually, I am happy and blessed doing what I do here.
Sir,
I am not here to argue a point. I am simply stating the obvious. You can toss whatever “dirt” you want at me calling me a “fan” or whatever you wish. Clearly I meant to say documentary and not blog. You be blessed.
Don’t try to hide what you were saying under the guise of not wanting to argue. If you’re going to come and hurl accusations, the least you could do is admit it.
“It sounds like your upset more than anything that you won’t be getting an HBO blog. Pastor Justin’s videos clearly were not for gossip but that seems to be all you got out of it and it is sad.” jazz
Now I do not know how old you are, but I’d say you’re pretty young. You are assuming jealousy on my part. For what? HBO wouldn’t dare come my way, because they know what to expect.
The intent of Justin’s videos are one thing, the facts of them are another. He got called out by someone on a radio station an had the chance to say something, but he said nothing. He had a video, SOMEBODY SAY SOMETHIN’, and when he had the chance, he said nothin’.
Well let me say that I am glad that Da Truth has repented.
Fred, You did a great job expressing your views on this post. – Rock solid.
