How can anyone rejoice over this ?? Why not? Did you want the Bishop to serve years in jail? As angry I was with him, I didn't want him to go to jail. I prayed for him and for God's mercy to be demonstrated in his situation. I rejoice! Can you explain? They had another witness of his angry temper. Someone who worker at the church, beside the lady he choked. His office was next to JB and he heard them fighting, all the time. When they had meeting it would show in his anger in his attitude and Bynum would cry. The man said Week accused him for spreading rumors and reached over and grabbed him. John, the bellman and along with the two former employee were going to testify. He was in her hand... and she covered him... she could have said, lock him up, and they would have locked him up, but she didn't... She asked for no jail time.... I know she prayed for favor. I don't think that the case here... because bynum wasn't on trail, and their were proof that he commited the crime. PPl were praying.... I know some don't care for them, but some of us do.... I am happy that God move into this situation and took what was ugly and used it for his good. Love cover a multitude of sin... It have to be love.... I couldn't do it . I would forgive and go on with my life. I think Juanita Bynum demonstrated something very powerful in the courtroom. She forgave him and asked for him to be release from the jail time, after all he have done to her.... the book is more than enough. How many of us would have done that? I know I wouldn't, she must have been before God to have a heart to stand in the gap for her husband. Since she sow mercy, she will reap mercy. |

I knew their was a motive behind him pleading guilty. His own lawyer said he only plead guilty because he wasn't gonna get any jail time. Cause Juanita asked them to take jail time off the table. If everyone remembers from the last time they met, he was gonna plead guilty but they were gonna give him jail time and him and his lawyers didn't want him to do any. Well, Heaven, we all know that what they were working on. I was wondering why his lawyer was at the resolution of the divorce, and why their divorce lawyers left them along for hours in the law office. God will be the judge of that and he will reap what he sow. Yes... she indeed love this man.... He show the whole world that he lied about her... He have to go to counselling.... I pray she be led by the Holy Spirit and not by her flesh or by man opinion. are you going to be there? if so tell us what happen... Bynum might show up. Did anybody catch the look on his father's face when he plead guilty?   [/quote] I can't see it on my computer.... tell me about it |

Sometimes it alot for us to get it...who said he lied on her ? What I don't understand it took the both of them for this to occur and this is just my own opinion if neither had been walking around with their hearts filled with pride it may not have happened. Every woman knows that when a man walks away you don't follow him..so let's be honest and accept the fact that things may not be the way we have seen. She needs to go to counseling, too !! I have a tape with her saying she wasn't sure if that fighting demon was gone. She had already forgiven him..long before the court date and that is something I am sure will come out in time.

Sometimes it alot for us to get it...who said he lied on her ? He did lied... He changed his story 3X.... He was doing everything he could to build his case... by lying it shows lack of faith. I am glad he confessed and God moved for him. Only God know the heart.... what we call pride, may not be pride... Every woman don't know.... because most men would not have react in that way. It is true she have forgiven, even after he continue to stick needle in her (to hurt her)... I can learn from Juanita, and can see the love of God that she practice in this situation. In my flesh, I will have crucified him... Thank God for Jesus.... Why be so negative, can you be happy for them, that God worked in their favor.... They walked out together smiling, not angry or bitter. |

I am not being negative..I am sick of people defending the actions of both them. She was not innocent and neither was he. This scandal brought much shame to the body of Christ and I am quite sure we all learned something from this. As quiet as I am..I knew within that when my boyfriend said " I'll be back" and walked away from me..after some heated words..that he needed his space and needed to shut my mouth no matter if he was wrong or I was wrong.
And for those who don't know a man will walk away to keep from hurting you or doing something else regretful. It has been noted that African American woman have sharp tongues and will use their tongues to cut you to bits. The truth of what was said or happened that night may never come out and to be honest I hope that the truth is never revealed so this couple get the healing they need and reconcile their marriage. I am not going to rejoice over a man pleading guilty to save his behind or to make his wife look good when it's their souls are at stake.

And by the way..I am glad things turned out the way they did..things should have never gotten as far as they did. My point of the illustration had nothing to do with JBW....I was making a point that maybe he plead guilty because it was the only out for both of them.
As for what God can do will do..I have not doubt that he can restore all that has been and was lost during this conflict. I will not disclose the detail..yet, I watched a couple go through one the most trying times they have ever faced and God's healing power, love, and so much has overshadowed that conflict and is building a foundation that will last their life time. Did I rejoice at the destruction that was disclosed before me..many did..did I turn my back and run..many did...when the Lord whispered "stand"...I stood..though faced with pain of what happened regularly. I prayed the Weeks' as many here and all over the world did..yet, I realized that as bad as this was it something that God had exposed to give us all a reminder that he is a jealous God and that he would share his Glory with no other..no matter how anointed they are.

I am very Upset!!!! I just got this email from Bishop Weeks church:
And it said he will be preaching Easter Sunday. They're going on as if nothing happened.
He is still be allowed to preach. He's just taking a week off. I don't understand how they can still, allow him to preach after he just admitted to beating his wife. They are not giving him any consequences for what he did. Somebody needs to sit him down. There's going to be a lot of problems behind him still being allowed to preach.

This is like one of those love store .  A restraining order has separated Bynum and Weeks since the bishop was charged in the attack. But on Monday, soon after the couple saw each other at Bynum's deposition for the divorce proceedings, they fell into each other's arms."Probably for an hour they just held onto each other," said Ed Garland, Weeks' defense attorney. "It was a very dramatic moment." This made me cried well I am a very emtional person that cry at the movie, or just watching TV Said Bynum: "I hadn't seen Bishop Weeks in a while; when I saw him it allowed me to reflect on the first time we got married. In situations like this, no one tells you what to do with the love that you feel for the person." This got to be love, I pray he learn to love her like Christ love the Church, if they decide to reconcile.The couple did not rule out a reconciliation in the future: "God is in control of all things," Weeks said.WOW! I know alote of people have different views on this case but I would love to see them reconcile and move on in the Lord! |

Well, Heaven, I learn over the months of keeping up with this case, that Weeks do what Weeks want to do.... I don't know who he accountible to... but it don't seen to be his father or grandfather. He have to stay in the state of Georgia for three years... and they should make him clean the street or do some construction work with the hard hat and shoes as community service, nothing easy or clean. May be this will break him, when he get all dirty and smelly with a backache. This will be his punishment.... I am glad that things work out for the both of them. |

They are both unstable and their words hold no weight. They veer from one thing to the other which to me signifies double mindedness. I am not condemning them since when emotions are charged folks can be all over the place.
Which is exactly why i dont have time for any of them at this point or adhere to anything they say cause too much flesh going on.
I believe his acquital is mutually beneficial for them both. She had a lot to lose if he started kicking off in jail lol.
Who knows if they struck a deal-sounds like it to me.
