Paul Franklin Crouch, co-founder of Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN), is dead at age 79, reported his grandson Brandon Crouch on Saturday.

"Today, my grandfather, #PaulCrouchSr went home to be with Jesus in heaven. Thank you for your prayers…" Brandon Crouch tweeted.

TBN's official Facebook page later released the announcement about Crouch's death: "Dr Paul F Crouch passed into the presence of the Lord on November 30, 2013. We are grateful for the life of this amazing servant of God. Please pray for the Crouch family during this time. #paulcrouch #tbn"

Why is Aleppo any different from any other Jewish traditional text? I told you how they set up a guard against what they saw as a serious blasphemy, even though as Christians we know it isn’t. You just skimmed right past that.

And you also sound like one of those “gotta get the doctrine exactly right” dudes and that makes you quite brittle. You are going to be run very close to that fire yourself until you understand what you erringly wished on your brethren.

grift (grft) Slang

1. Money made dishonestly, as in a swindle.

2. A swindle or confidence game.

OK, so now point out anything more than gossip?

The folks with spiritual objections sound more serious than you are.

>> “Why is Aleppo any different from any other Jewish traditional text?” <<

.
It’s not appreciably different, it’s just the oldest complete text, and therefore is the basis of the widely published Tanakh.

What we have to get right is obedience. Yehova gave us his feasts for worship and for education. Ignoring them is the reason for so many lost “Christians” that do things like Crouch did.

I outright reject your legalistic, bastardized, non New Testament vision of Christianity then. I don’t care that you think I’ll roast either. I know whom I have believed and I am persuaded that He is able to save that which I have delivered to Him against that day.

I know nothing about this man or his ministry. Re; Madame Pompadour, is Lady Big Hair his wife, daughter or ‘assistant’?

Sad for him.

Those who use the Gospel to enrich themselves while teaching false doctrine probably have a lot to answer for.

That sounds like a suitable term for someone else, a certain long legged ‘lady’ with over-developed detoids and a perpetually angry expression knitted into her brows.

Madame Pompadour is the Holy Man’s alleged wife (and now alleged widow, I suppose), or was until the news of his homosexual escapades leaked. Her job was to play on their TV show the religious TV version of Ed McMahon’s role, and to punctuate the Saintly preacher’s exhortations with frequent “Hay Mens, Hay Mens!”, which she performed as well as the unfortunate second banana Ed once did on Johnny’s sinful secular show.

The bastardized NT is yours!

The first two centuries followed The Way completely, Keeping all Sabbaths and fiests.

Your “New Testament” vision is nothing but the paganization of what was once perfect, obedient following of Yeshua’s words. (your misapplication of any scripture not withstanding)

It’s really a pretty good thing that the Lord doesn’t have to accept your views. They reek of hate and bigotry.

There are people whom are guillible and follow these preachers that their word is infallible. Keep in mind a pastor will be judged by God accordingly. People are led astray by false teachers.
Fine if you do no want to accept my views. My views are not of hate and bigotry. God’s love will heal people of a multitude of sins

i have been counseling people whom have come out of spiritually abusive churches as led by TBN’s Paul crouch.

for your information I am a pastor, counselor and a former missionary. I have seen what abusive pastors do people whom are led astray. I spent a year in the US Marines when I was injured, putting me in a wheelchair for the rest of my life.

The allegations made against Crouch are more than gossip.

Mansions, jets,gold jewelry. Billions earned and their overhead extremely low - a few hundred transmitters being the biggest cost. Only God can judge though I fear the worst.

If you don’t like Paul Crouch and the TBN, what then do you think of Billy Graham and his son Franklin Graham? Both father and son oftentimes at TBN. Are the Graham’s fraud or con-artists or worst grifter, too?
