There is not statute of limitations in Texas for that kind of behavior. Also morris, the elders, and all clergy who knew are mandatory reporters in TX. They are all crimanally liable.
USA is guilty of horrible crimes for centuries of hate crimes, theft, killings, destruction of the blacks race so we need a indictment and reparations how about that
From the reports I have watched, Morris had framed this incident to the elders of his church. deceitfully... he said, "I had an inappropriate relationship with a young LADY!"; When in fact it was a 12 yo girl. 😢. The two people who did know was James Robinson and his friend who happened to be a former sheriff.
Be careful what you ask for! God forgave King David when he had sex with another man’s wife , then sent her husband off to a trap to be killed. That was to cover up the sin.
Well Jesus does promise something worse than being affixed to millstone and thrown into the ocean for those who would cause one of his little ones to stumble.
This is what saddens me about many “Christians” today, as a practicing one myself. Not enough of us try to pick up our cross and live like Jesus, and too many of us want to use Jesus, The Bible/its story, Church services in all denominations etc, for their own benefit. I’m certainty still guilty of slipping up like anyone is, we’re all human, but I still make the active choice to do it as little as possible, and to repent for what I do.
Satan has his grip on mega pastors. I pray they all repent before it's too late. John 12:43 "for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God
Stop! People who believe in Christ already know this. He didn’t make one simple mistake. He raped a 12 year old for 5 years. I wonder if you’d say the exact same thing if it were your child.
The big Elephant in the room, that everyone is ignoring, is that Morris is also one of those Prosperity Preachers that has duped people out of millions. We should be talking about that as well.....Hinn, Copeland, Osteen, and all the rest of them.
Im done with mega church. I stopped trusting in Morris years ago. He wasn't a pastor. He was a celebrity. A CEO. I wont go to a church where you aren't allowed to talk to your pastor. The guy has bodyguards.
I’m so sorry for the whole situation. Both are GOD’ creations and are loved by HIM for eternity. I pray for both of them. I love the preaching and teachings of pastor Morris. I will pray for both of them and their families ❤.
Two things to think about: 1st Cindy was not “12” forever during this relationship; turned 13 a month after it started (January 83) and was 17 when it ended (march 87). 2nd, was 3 months shy of being 20, when this now “young lady” and her dad “gracefully” forgave pastor Morris (October 89) even though they knew he had been since March 89, by then 7 months, back working as a pastor…
@@PCLee345 John 8:7 🙏🏽🤐🙏🏽This is written specially for you. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone. Bro- Seek Jesus and he’ll ser you free
I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel. Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands have ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me. I have shewed you all things, how that so laboring YOU OUGHT to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. - Paul the apostle to the church leaders, Acts 20:33ff. Notice that it is the leaders (elders) who were to do the supporting. Prosperity teachers, including this parasite, endlessly expect others to "support" them. We must do better!
I can't believe it was that bad that her parents let him stay there 5 years to continually abuse her. She said she shouldn't live in shame anymore that is true nor should Robert Morris.
Less convenient facts for the media are: She is aware that the statute of limitations has passed for criminal charges, she admits she's not in shame because of, and he is a best-selling author with an estimated net worth of 117 million dollars. So, what do you think her motivation actually is here?
Honestly, I am a woman and understand sexual abuse, but is there proof? Why now? Not saying it didn't happen, but the Me Too movement was offensive to me. I don't trust accusations. Maybe there is proof. If so, that's just horrible, horrible!
Those who feel they have the right to judge Pastor Robert Morris and his family and feel everybody else is blameless then throw the first stone keeping in mind God knows if your page of life is spotless!
I need to cry I liked his preaching ,this happened years ago when he was young,kids don't Always Make the right ,decisions. God forgave him he didnt hide it he confessed and repented.I hope thus lady is happy for destroying his life and the lives of his family
If you're a believer then you know we're not perfect but forgiven. It's not to say what he's accused of was & is right. The world's watching us believers & we are called to forgive .
Jesus told Peter in Matthew 16:19 that he was given the keys to the kingdom of heaven and whatever he bound on earth would be bound in heaven and whatever he loosed on earth would be loosed in heaven which means what he said is NOT negotiable. Peter was asked by the people in Acts 2:37 what they needed to do to be SAVED. He responded in Acts 2:38-39, "Repent and be BAPTIZED every one of you in the NAME of Jesus Christ FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. 39 For the PROMISE is unto you and to those that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call." Peter said in Acts 4:12, "Neither is there salvation in any other, for there is NONE OTHER NAME under heaven given among men whereby we must be Saved." Peter said in 1 Peter 3:21 "The like figure where unto even BAPTISM does also now save us....." It does so because it REMITS SIN - meaning the INITIAL remittance and not the confessing of sin later addressed in 1 John 1:9. Jesus said in John 3:7, "Marvel not that I said unto you, YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN." That means that is NOT negotiable. He said in John 3:5, "Verily, verily I say unto you, Except a man be born of WATER, AND of the Spirit, he can not enter into the kingdom of God." Being born of water is being Baptized in water in Jesus Name, being baptized with the Spirit is being baptized with the Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit. Jesus said in Mark 16:16, "He that believes and is BAPTIZED shall be SAVED, but he that believes not shall be damned." At about that same time He said in Matthew 28:19, "Go therefore and teach all nations, BAPTIZING them in the name (Singular name and not names) OF the Father, and OF the Son, and OF the Holy Ghost." The book of Acts is the longest and most important book in the New Testament because all of it is what Jesus and His disciples said we must do to be Saved which is repentance, water baptism in Jesus NAME - Acts 2:38, Acts 8:14-18, Acts 8:38, Acts 9:18, Acts 10:44-48, Acts 16:15, Acts 16:33, Acts 18:7, Acts 18:8, Acts 18:3-5, And Acts 22:16.: And being baptized with the Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit which is addressed in Mark 16:19 (Jesus speaking) Acts 2:4 (Pentecost) Acts 8:17, Acts 9:18, and Acts 10:44-48.There is not one Scripture that says a person receives the Holy Spirit just because they are a believer. Acts 19:1-5 is a good example. All of the above proves no one's sins are remitted just because they are a believer, no one is Saved just because they are a believer, no one receives the Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit just because they are a believer, and no one is Born Again (John 3:3-7) just because they are a believer. Some say the Thief on the cross next to Jesus was not baptized yet Jesus told him he would be with him in paradise that day.. Jesus had not given the COMMANDMENT to be Baptized in His NAME until after He rose from the dead and ascended into heaven. If you are convinced you need to get baptized in water in Jesus NAME, do a search, type in "United Pentecostal Church International", slightly scroll down to just below the red box, type in your zip code, then a screen will show a Church nearest you that will do that. If you do that you will be making SURE your name is written in the Lamb's Book Of Life. Jesus said in John 10:27, "My Sheep hear my voice and I know them, and they follow me."
Let’s agree that pastor Morris committed a crime in his early 20s and according to our legal system should had been incarcerated. But what I find disheartening is how people, especially Christians find it hard to believe that pastor Morris, after 38 years and the fruit of his ministry and life after that, can’t be a changed and different man. And where in Scripture does it say that true repentance means for the person repenting and the leadership of the church guiding him through the healing and restoration process, must tell the whole world the details of the sin?
I notice that you never mentioned the name of the person abused, or that she even exists. You seem far more concerned with the welfare of the abuser. Be that as it may, this evangelical church, like so many others before it, is about to find out that clergy sexual abuse is hugely expensive. A ruined reputation and vastly reduced membership and revenue will be the consequences. Hillsong, another multisite megachurch, had a similar scandal and went from 16 campuses down to 9. I expect the same for Gateway.
I wonder how much the politics have done such things and get away I think politics are more immoral than preachers but hide it better! I hope politics especially from the democratic part are exposed!
I support Pastor Morris eventhough he has always had this creepy vibe .Nonetheless if the child´s family didn´t take legal actions back in the 80s then he shouldn´t be smeared by false hypocritical christians today
He should have stepped outside that cold Christmas Day...and repeatedly called out the Powerful name of Jesus..alone in his automobile. Power over this in the Mighty Name of Jesus..everything subsides.
So much judgement in the comments. Yes, what he did was wrong. He admitted it. True, a bit late, but he did admit it. Romans 3:23. Everyone here calling for Morris to be fired or jailed or worse is guilty of violating scripture. Gossips, all of you. Shut your mouths and pray instead of spreading gossip.
Christian brainwashing that he can do no wrong. It happens to us so often. I know it ruined her life, compounded the experience of being abandoned by all other institutions.
Is it weird that he sat back and watch you do all the things wrong for all your life some people know about them alot don't. Theirs a judgment day for everyone. Jesus blood wash many sins away for those who believe in him and ask him to come their heart
Removie statues of limitation on child predators
i disagree with you . What happened in the past stays in the past . If the child´s parents didn´t press charges than leave it alone

I guess she got too old. He probably need younger to groom.
Then he blamed her for not ending the "affair" sooner. He also refers to her as a young lady instead of a child this guy should be in a prison cell
