That's your excuse to wear Ear Bobs?

To me this has less to do with him leaving Apostolic church and more to do with his culture. Black people are more into this than european-americans.

Do I like it? No, I would spank my boys silly if they ever wore one.

However, what about the love slave in the OT? I could be wrong, but they pierced their ear when they decided to stay with their master. Didn't they?

I believe the best thing to be is conservative in dress and lifestyle. By doing this, one does not offend and can minister to more people.

To me such actions, cause Jakes to be more limited to his ethnic background. Most white men will take offense to this.

In the late 90s, I liked Jakes. I even went to his church a couple of times in 2002. However, I stopped listening to him some time back because he seems to be preaching too many social concerns and not enought meat of the Word.

No real problem exists over the use of "The Name" in everthing else done in the Church. Why then should there exist great controversy over the use of the "The Name of the Godhead" in water baptism?

Yes, they pierced the ear with an aul, but that was OT as the more liberal like to say. ;-)

I will be as bold as others are on here.

I don't believe TD JAKES will go to hell for having a diamond stud in his ear at his daughter's wedding!
