  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Keion Henderson, founder and CEO of The Lighthouse Church & Ministries in Houston, Texas, has professed his unyielding loyalty to popular televangelist T.D. Jakes after the arrest of music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs, with whom Jakes has been controversially linked, because he has been "good to me."

In an interview with former National Football League quarterback Cam Newton released on YouTube on Saturday, Henderson argued that the public has a "negativity bias" against Jakes. He even invoked a phrase from Vice President and Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris' recent interview with CNN when she was asked about former President Donald Trump's implication that she "happened to turn Black" for political purposes.

"I'll just put it in the words of Kamala Harris when Dana Bash asked her a question about Donald Trump. Next question please," Henderson said when first questioned about the relationship between Jakes and Combs.
