This is so good to have because churches are still going through these issues right now. This shows great leadership and accountability and teaches new leaders how to deal with these issues within the churches they lead. Thank you Jonathan
Thank you brother for sharing. We have to live right after we shout. A praose break will not keep, but the word will and its alway right. Chastisements yields peaceable fruits of righteousness.
My sister or brother, God said through JesusChrist the whole world lieth in wickedness, 1 John 5:19. And if you can hear the Spirit of God, the whole world lie about God in JesusChrist, and is wickedness before God. But who understands that the world is serving the false image of God, and not the true?
That first gentleman blessed my heart! 🙌🏾🔥 I'm not COGIC, but what he said applies to the entire Church body, and more pastors need to stand firm like he did.
“Holiness is right, if I’m wrong, holiness is still right. If you’re wrong, holiness is still right. And God honors only holiness.” - Bishop J. O. Patterson Wow, what a leader Bishop J. O. Patterson was. How we need leaders like that in the Church in general.
@@user-Dayvid1ur still supposed to cast ur vote 🗳 and pray for our leaders(Rulers) as the Bible has said,knowing that the government sets upon Christ’s shoulder!!
@@sherry3301 Oh, we do? That's what God means when he says, Be subject to the higher powers/authorities? Even though JesusChrist is King of kings? Tell me more? Help me to understand? I don't want to go against God!!!!!!!! No.
If I’m correct, the General Counsel of Pastors and Elders exists to protect the pastors and elders from rogue Bishops and Leaders. So, suspending it is akin to the President of the US suspending the Supreme Court or an investigating Committee. I would need to hear more on that to make a solid judgement.
R.I.H. BISHOP J. O. PATTERSON,SR HE WAS A GREAT LEADER , A GREAT PREACHER, A GREAT TEACHER, A GREAT MAN THAT GOD CHOSE TO LEAD COGIC IN A TIME THAT WAS MUCH NEEDED. HE IS TRULY MISSED HE DIDN'T SUGARCOAT ANYTHING. COGIC NEEDS TO GO BACK HOLINESS BECAUSE HOLINESS IS RIGHT 🙏✝️🙏
My sister, God sent JesusChrist to be the leader, Shepherd of the whole world, Ezekiel 34:23; Isaiah 40:11, John 10:11, Hebrews 13 20-21, 1 Peter 2:5, For ye/you were as sheep going astray; but now are returned to the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls. @@vivianshorts7856 24, (JesusChrist) Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live, unto righteousness: by whom stripes ye/you were healed. 1 Peter 1:25, But the word of the LORD endureth forever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you. Amen. May you find it instead of the copy, which by Satan, the whole world is deceived, Revelation 12:9.
Let Us Always Forever pray that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ bless us with leadership of the church that our savior Jesus Christ built I thank God for the teachers of the Church of God in Christ that have taught me to grow to be strong in a witness and testimony of the truth the gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ meaning of our teachers have come and gone to be with our Lord but the teaching of their life still Shines on because of their righteousness to the truth that taught me whatever may be my Lord and Savior strengthen me and forever I pray teachers of today stay true to the righteousness of the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ
I couldn’t have said it better myself! I guess us Baptists aren’t the only denomination that cuss, fight, and “pack” like they try to make us believe! Haha!!!💪🏾👑
I see now why these Bishops were addressing this over 30 years ago. Here in Texas our jurisdictions have become so segregated because of greed and hatred. If we all want to see Jesus we have to get along in love down here.
If more of this would occur it would eliminate a lot of the foolishness going on in the church currently, which many are falling into error by keeping silent. It would also help those who are not saved and steer clear of the church due to hypocrisy to come to church and hear truth!
Wow, I know folks have different opinions about Bishop J.O. but you can’t say the man wasn’t principled. This, unfortunately, I see missing from our Mother Church today.
Anything with more than one head is a freak. If the head is wrong it aint none of your business...that is God's business and we the sheep must stay in our place. Give God room to work it out. Stay in the spirit and dont get ugly. If you dislike how He works it out and you cant find a way to stay and be subject to those that have the rule over you then leave...but be sure if you do leave pray and ask the Lord for direction in how to leave...you must leave right. Dont leave wrong because then you will have to come back and fix that...
I understand these Bishops concerns, but unfortunately ALL of their points are based around demoninationalism!! God will NOT ask anybody about GOGIC or any other Denominations... Please get it together Body of CHRIST!! Pleaseeeeeee....
Politics has no place in the church. Holiness is for ALL churches. The Church belongs to the Lord, it is higher than politics. The government is upon His shoulder which He only upholds when they follow is ways.
God has an order. Therefore confusion is not of God. By obedience to God the unsaved can see the difference and God will call them to obedience to him. This is the reason leaders are birthed. Because God has an order and it will be followed.
For the edification of the saints for one. Take it in love; don’t be defensive. If it is not feeding you don’t eat, let someone else come to the table and feed of it. Hallelujah! It is God’s business anyway!
Father-God, with the help of the Holy Spirit, I choose to bring my thoughts, this feeling of guilt, the nightmares, the bad memories, and all that I am to You. Give me mercy from Your fountain of forgiveness. Even in my darkness moments You were there; when I violated my own conscience, You grieved with me. When I was abused and violated, or witnessed and encountered the horrific, You knew. The trauma of all that I’ve experienced continues to hang on, but I know that Jesus came to set the captives free. I know Your abundant love is enough to wash away my guilt, and because Your compassion is so great, You take away this shameful guilt of sin. I know Your abundant love is enough to remove the sting and terror of stubborn memories. I surrender to You, Father, and today I choose to stand up to the devil and resist him, and he will turn and run away from me. I move my heart closer and closer to You, and You will come even closer to me. I choose to cleanse my mind of the trauma of the past and keep my heart pure, and I choose to replace my doubting with the Word of God. Jesus, You came to give me life-even abundant life, and I walk in the freedom of the Holy Spirit who is my constant Companion.
@@calebferguson6051they where not first cousins, bishop J. O Patterson was the uncle of bishop G.E Patterson… bishop J.O and the father of bishop G.E where brothers.
@@calebferguson6051That is correct Bishop J. O. Patterson and Bishop W.A. Patterson were brothers. Bishop W.A. was the father to Bishop G.E. Patterson.
First of all, all denominations are unbiblical. The Lord is the head of the Church not COGIC and the rest. Where do we get off putting labels and add ons to the name people Jesus purchased with His own blood all by Himself? In Revelation Jesus addressed the 7 churches as the Church at Ephesus, Smyrna etc. Never once did he mention this unbiblical demonic denominationalism. That’s one place of division and idolatry.
It's a personal walk. None of us, Not one have rock, stone or pebble to throw. Pray and trust God to do the rest. It takes just one negative to get a snowball rolling of negativity. Hope thou in the Lord.
Bishop green was it just saying this in Memphis Bishop green say what he meant everywhere he went this is the only man I know didn't feel another man he only feared God green was the real deal trust me
We are all individuals and whether folk/saints or anyone is "MESSY OR NOT" We MUST work out or own salvation with FEAR and TREMBLING". Fear is the BEGINNING of Wisdom.
I don't think thats true. Lots of people call Bishop Blake "The Goat" because of his success as a COGIC Pastor, Jurisdictional leader and as Presiding Bishop. He changed the game with the Praise and Worship movement, Largest and richest church in COGIC, founded the biggest African American Charity in Africa, etc... And personally this channel wouldn't be around if it wasn't for Bishop Blake. He is a Visionary Leader. Who I think gets attacked and hated on for living in California.
I did not personally know Bishop Blake and we are to pray one for another. I pray that you lifted him up in prayer AND worked out your own salvation with FEAR AND TREMBLING; Because this WALK is individual and personal. God Bless you.

Wow, what a leader Bishop J. O. Patterson was. How we need leaders like that in the Church in general.
It's time to VOTE AGAIN!
Lord Jesus Christ help us.
My sister or brother, how can a person vote for anything but JesusChrist, after seeing politicians about money and power?

This is so timely! Thanks for posting!!!
Thank you for posting this video.
You're welcome
Thanks JD!❤
No problem my friend
The bishop speaking down to the choir was wholely out of pocket and got personal. Unacceptable.
Oh Zion what's the matter NOW!!!!
A relevant message for such a time as this!
WOW 👏 What a word, and he spoke 👏 🙌
"You are a false prophet, and security take him outta here!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bishop Green took me out 🤣🤣😂
The one and only bishop Green
Bishop GE Patterson was wise
This is Bishop JO Patterson not GE Patterson.
Bishop GE Patterson spoke several times in the video
Holiness is right beautiful people
Wow, I know folks have different opinions about Bishop J.O. but you can’t say the man wasn’t principled. This, unfortunately, I see missing from our Mother Church today.
Without holiness no man shall see GOD
Leadership is just that Leadership and it should be followed or just move on.
Oh. It’s J.O. Patterson
The Grand Ole Church.
I just saw Bishop J. H. Sherman, 2nd NC Jurisdiction.
How about being baptism in the name of Jesus Christ
It b3 crazy to see videos of ppl when they were young when all you've known is when they were old
If you don’t know who Sun Myung Moon is please look him up. Patterson was right to be annoyed at the link between COGIC and the Moonies.

Mr.J D was this the 1996 Convocation? The Bishop Owens and Patterson first duel
The video was 1995... 1996 They did run against each other for PB.
I was there
Political views stem from one's relationship with God. Read Ecc 10:2, Isaiah 5:20, and Ro 1.22. 00:16:44
What year was the clip of Bishop Blake at 44:57
I believe 2009
How does this edify the Body of Christ, and secondly how does this draw unsaved people to the Lord Jesus Christ and to any church?
God has an order. Therefore confusion is not of God. By obedience to God the unsaved can see the difference and God will call them to obedience to him. This is the reason leaders are birthed. Because God has an order and it will be followed.
It establishes order.
I was present when each Bishop spoke. Why show this? This is COGIC personal business. Some things shouldn't be aired!
If you don't want it aired, don't watch it. You don't have the right to tell people how to control their channel. If they said it, it can be shown
For the edification of the saints for one. Take it in love; don’t be defensive. If it is not feeding you don’t eat, let someone else come to the table and feed of it. Hallelujah! It is God’s business anyway!
If they didn't want it aired it wouldn't had been recorded....🤷
We need this brother…. There is a generation of leaders who don’t know how to lead

How do you know? You say it's always been messy so are you 100 years old? U have flaws and so does everyone else! God bless you.
Other denominations have mess as well because other denominations have people in them, so stop trying to place and leave blame here and only here.
