hat tip to Melvin over at Pulpit Pimps for this depiction of Jamal, twisting as usual…
As I mentioned previously, last week was the bi-annual “Pay A Pimp A Dollar” week over at TBN (The Baal Network). And true to form, they trotted out one of their top earners: “Dr.” Jamal “The Prince Pimp of Baltimore” Bryant.
It seems as though the good “Dr.” got tired of getting into your voting booth and your bedroom, so he returned to doing what he’s most comfortable doing (well, what he’s most comfortable doing with his clothes on)…
…getting into your wallet:
Jamal Bryant on the Fall ‘08 TBN Fleece-a-Thon
hat tip to our brother Matt Green, who has more videos like this at his YouTube page
Ahh, who can forget such sage wisdom from the Word of God, like:
You are marked for destiny when you are broke with expensive taste
And of course, Jamal wouldn’t be the Prince Pimp of Baltimore if he didn’t butcher a little scripture, right? Let’s see, the entire crux of the story of Joseph and his dream in Genesis 37, 39, 40, and 41 is that we can all drive nice cars and buy nice things?
Silly me, I always thought that Joesph’s story was a lesson in overcoming adversity, moral guilt (regarding Joseph’s treatment at the hands of his brothers), repentance (their return to him and his forgiveness of their sins toward him), and God’s sovereignty (using Joseph to feed a nation) – an early shadow of Christ’s experiences.
I guess I’m just not deep enough.
Oh well, at least Prince Pimp Jamal can tell a good tale…and shake a few coins loose in the process.
Pimpin’ ain’t easy…
I wonder how come he never claims someone like Peter as a model? I mean the pleasure of hanging with high profile people like tanners
.
They can never take what is representative for Christians in proper context, because their focus is on material things. So they are proving to grow as thorns as Matthew 13 notes.
I noticed Jamal is still trying to give the impression he earned a degree from Oxford, when he really got his doctorate degree from a school in Indiana and only saw Oxford for a summer session.
Hey there…
Jamal has SIX children to support now…. three of them are with his wife…and also I think that he is very focused on acquiring material status markers…and he’s pastoring a church that has a huge percentage of women who are mothers with children out of wedlock who really have not set high goals in life….his messages about “how to get rich” are popular with those who are counting on a windfall from Heaven to one day come pouring through their roof….
You sir, are evil. Evil, evil, evil! And quite funny. Keep up the good work.
Oh, and I must say you have exquisite taste in graphic art.
I watched him on there a couple nights and had to turn because of the things he was saying. The thing is the way he speaks is powerful but what he talks about is UN BIBLICAL. If he put some doctrine together and really wanted to preach the GOSEPL he could really grab some people.
But I am always thinking about Jesus telling us that many will come saying they did all these things for his name sake and he will say depart from me for I never knew you.
People are in need of hearing the PURE GOSEPL that points to CHRIST and not to them and what they can get or what they want.
GREAT POST
God Bless YA
Bro. Peter, Jamal is a pimp who is content with lying and defaming the Gospel. He has had many times to repent and return to God (if he ever really believed in the God of the bible in the first place – and not the God of this world). He’s more comfortable dressing like a pimp, taking money and sex like a pimp, and talking smooth and deceptively like a pimp. While we can pray that the Lord’s will be done concerning him, we aslo have to continue to hold the words that leave his mouth up to the scrutiny of the Word of God to see just how off this pimp really is.
Melvin – The pimp lovers will always think that God’s truth is evil, especially when their pimps twist it so that you can’t recognize it unless you read it for yourself. I’m just doing what we all should do when we see and hear a pimp – laugh our butts off and walk toward the opposite direction.
Besides, I learned it from you
This is a poignant example of what transpires when the gift isnt being submitted to the Gift Giver.
In such cases, the gift becomes like the voice of hee-hawing jackass.
And fortunately only other donkeys understand such language.
ST,
I actually got a late night call about this one. I can’t believe this man told the people he was going to pray that the lose their jobs in 40 days if they don’t give 40 dollars. Is that not embezzlement, witchcraft, evil? I gonna wok meh voo doo on ya nah! long and heavy sigh!
I listened to the video. It was truely painful to hear and to watch all those people applauding and ‘praising God’ for what this pulpit pimp was saying! I almost lost my lunch when he said that “none of the people in Joseph’s family ever worked again after his dream came to pass”….. He tells the people to read the whole book of Genesis.
He apparently forgot that the slavery of all of the decendants of Joseph took place ‘after his dream came to pass’.
No people read your Bible and you will see that this guy is either ignorant of what the Bible teaches or worst he is lying about it to get $$$$$.
I believe its the latter. All about the $$$$$!!!!
Don’t even get me started about the clown suit he was wearing…
Thanks for linking to my video. I’ve got a few more from Steve Munsey, Clarence McClendon, Benny Hinn and Rod Parsley from this year’s fleece-a-thon–as well as previous years–at http://www.youtube.com/intelligentsi0
eucatastrophe,
The pleasure is all mine – thanks for documenting this foolishness. I subscribed to your YouTube channel some time ago, and I’ve got some of your other videos here as well.
Keep up the good work!
OH MY GOD! Wicked men and women leading fools!
It was truely painful to hear and to watch all those people applauding and ‘praising God’ for what this pulpit pimp was saying!
The bride has fallen and she cant get up. Much of this is a reflection at the sad state of deep ignorance the church has fallen into. There is simply no other explanation for it. This is supply and demand. They are lusting for things and God is allowing them to be manipulated because of their idolatry. If the people would stop feeding this circus, soon they would fade to oblivion. But the people’s hearts are wicked. They dont want to serve the Lord and live holy, only get more stuff, build bigger barns and count up all the goody bag blessings.
In my reading the other day I came accros this scripture and thought about this exact post.
Jer 50:6 “My people have been lost sheep. Their shepherds have led them astray, turning them away on the mountains. From mountain to hill they have gone. They have forgotten their fold.
Jer 50:7 All who found them have devoured them, and their enemies have said, ‘We are not guilty, for they have sinned against the LORD, their habitation of righteousness, the LORD, the hope of their fathers.
Preachers that preach the me Gospel point people away from Christ really, The mountian we need to focus on is the one Jesus paid the ultimate price on for our names sake.
Just thought this went with the post here.
ST,
I didn’t know the well had water at the bottom of it that Jospeh was placed in. Was that in the original Hebrew? This dude is garbage and he shows it by his own account.
ST (and the rest of my like-minded realness blogologians in here),
I am thrilled people are finally uncovering the fool beneath the plumed hat and gold chains. Due to a long story that would require a novel to explain, I met and consulted this pimp on one occasion – one too many.
I can tell you from experience: every ounce of pimpdom exuding from his heinous theology is only made tangible exponentially in person. He is a demagogue and demands this self-induced theocracy from his staff.
It’s appalling the crap this fool gets away with, and knowing what I know forces me to believe and remain steadfast on the Hammurabi Code with that whole “eye for an eye” thing. What Jamal has removed from people’s faith will be counted unto him… if only someday.
Keep it up, gang.
Peace,
HiScrivener
OK HS, now you’ve peaked my curiosity. What did you consult this pimp on – do you sell Bentley’s, clown suits, or private jets, by any chance?
You know, things will be pretty slow around here this week (with the holiday and all), so if you’re drunk off of turkey and stuffing you should come back and ramble on about that “one occassion”
I think people are placing too much emphasis on “Pastor” Bryant’s clothing. He is entitled to wear whatever he wants to. His clothes are not pimp clothes, they are custom made from styles that are exclusively his. I even enjoy a tailor-made suit with serious embellishments. That is not my issue with him.
I am, however pained by his mis-representation of Scripture. He claims to hold degrees in theology but demonstrates that he has difficulty properly exegeting a text. Any first year seminary student could discern the tenuious gaps in his theology.
He has been proven to have extramarital affairs with women in his church who have had children by him and he sees nothing wrong with it. Although that is a serious malady, that doesn’t bother me as much as the COGIC, my Church, inviting him to preach amid all the volitile scandals relating to sexual misconduct. This seriously points to yet another level of hypocrisy and double standard prevalent in our church.
But, then what do you expect when COGIC pays hush money to women who have ‘alleged” affairs with top brass Bishops, turn away mothers complaining about their son and daughters being molested, and Bishops who get strung out on drugs while overseeing jurisdictions. At some point the people who sanction and legitimize this hypocrisy, that being the lay people,are going to say we have had enough and aren’t taking it anymore. because guess whose going to foot the tab for Bryant coming? You are! Moreover, he will get paid far more for preaching that night that any of the other speakers will who are members of the denomination.
Just a brief note on “Pastor” Bryant. Several years ago he was at Michael Pitts’s church in Toledo, Oh – Cornerstone Church, which I no longer attend after 18 years due to all of the pulpit pimps who now visit there.
I was looking over my notes from a service Jamal Bryant preached there and he made a comment which struck me as odd at the time, but he was an “anointed” preacher, and of course their word is always gospel and revelatory. His comment was: “The stronger your anointing, the stronger your sex drive”. I have no idea where a true anointed man of God would get such an idea, but in light of what I know about him now, perhaps he was merely trying to justify his past or future behavior.
God help these deceptive wolves in shepherd’s clothing.
you guys need to get a life. There is no perfect person other than Jesus Christ himself. No matter what, the man has the word of god in his mouth, just like the King David and the others of the
Bible, we all fall short, but we are covered by his blood.
The only “word” that Jamal Bryant has in his mouth is the word of the god of this world (mammon, riches, sex, and more). You are correct – we all fall short when we’re running after God, but this pimp is running after $ and women. Period. I dare say that Jamal Bryant and I aren’t covered under the same Blood…
