Wow! No kidding!
He didn't mention that one. But, I do remember him talking about some squaw that he said he was "poking at her in fun, but she took him seriously."

Thanks for all your support, brothers and sisters. It's good to know that I have real people out there who have their faith in me. It keeps me going. And I know my faithful viewers, some of whom donate half of what they earn to me, know I'm the real deal and not some manipulative shyster.
God bless you all.

So, telling someone to pay you or they don't believe in god, and manipulating them using pathetic heart string attacks isn't a con?
Getting $1000 from an old lady every month what you need to pay the medical bills for the daughters you have sex with?
Does that poor lady have any idea the kinds of things you say and support on here? Would you ever say anything in real life that you say on here?
You're a sick, disgusting con artist and a felon. You're a sinner.

Exactly what are you basing this on?
Reverend Osbourne is a wonderful member of our community and is worthy of your respect. I pray for all of this garbage to blow over, but I doubt it will because as a man of God, it is his duty to suffer persecution in this life.

My ability to read the god damn forums.
And my ability to see the sickness in calling an old lady JUST TO SEE WHY HIS PAYCHECK WASN'T COMING IN. Because his paycheck was lacking every month.
And your "wonderful" community reminds me of islam extremists.
Not far off mate, literally all you have to do at this point is cut someone's head off with a knife.

Shall I put you down for one or two hundred dollars donation?
For every $100 donation we are sending out a copy of Rev. Jim's workout video that I can't seem to find the link for. Strangely enough, it didn't sell very well.

What does that have to do with anything?
I doubt an old lady would be buying 10 of your stupid workout videos every month. And if they're for other people, aren't those people sinners who you can't contribute to?
They're fat because of gluttony, aren't they?
By the way thanks for limiting my posting time. obviously I was posting too fast by obeying the unbreakable forum rules that make me wait 300 seconds in between posts.
So you should give me the address to send this "money" to.

Then you should spend your time speaking of the Glory that is Jesus Christ Rather than wasting it on trivial things.

You're welcome. It's the least I could do. If you behave I might take your muzzle off.

Nobody has told anyone to "pay or she doesn't believe in God". Obviously, you do not believe in God, or you would capitalize His name.

Are you suggesting that a publicly-accessible, searchable Internet forum isn't "real life"? Any one of Jim's viewers can come to this forum and read everything he has written. They don't even have to join; it's all available for all to read, even the banned people (they just can't post).

No, he WAS a sick, disgusting con artist, and is an ex-felon. He WAS a sinner. He was not Saved before he went to jail. Now, he is. Just like Jeffrey Dahmer, who realized that his lack of belief in God is why he was so willing to rape and torture young men.
Bible boring? Nonsense!

Good for you, Rev. Rodimer. You straightened that turkey.
It's amazing the people come on here who just cannot grasp the power of forgiveness. They just do not understand that we True Christians™ have access to a forgiveness that is out of reach for others.
It's a wonderful thing.

YES! We will not stand by and see Pastor Jim be demoralized. He needs encouragement now more than ever.
His ability to overcome, most of the time, the temptations Satan waves in front of him constantly is an inspiration to us all.

It's not just a few people saying it either, it's several. No mainstream publication can reference me in an article without announcing me as "Fallen televangelist", "Shady con-man" or "Convicted felon."
Words hurt. I'm a man with a heart and feelings. Don't people think of how I feel before they lambast me with such hurtful sobriquets?
Here's a great example: There is a lady who has been watching my show and faithfully tithing a generous sum every month for the last four years. We'll call her Barbara. Well, some months back, the checks stopped flowing. I thought maybe she died because this was not like her.
I took the time out of my busy schedule and personally called her up on the phone. She was awe-struck by conversing with the Rev. Jim that she watches on TV daily and knows and loves. As it turns out, there was a lot of domestic turbulence happening. Her husband and her children demanded she stopped tithing. She said they referred to me as a "sleazy con-man" and a "scumbag that's only out for [her] money."
Well, I responded by quoting one of my favorite verses in all of the Bible:
Luke 14:26 If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
Essentially I explained to her that she was being tested by God to see if she was a True Christian™. By stopping her monthly donations, she was basically turning her back on Jesus by elevating the love of her family more than the love of God. Fortunately, I was able to let her see the error of her ways and she is back to donating her $1000 a month.
Finally, I will end it on this point: Yes, I may have been convicted of fraud, embezzlement, and tax evasion. Yes, I served several years in a federal penitentiary for those crimes. But, does that make me a con man? Consider a Catholic priest or a Lutheran minister. Maybe they've never fleeced their followers financially in the same degree as me, but they're the ones telling lies to people and getting them sent to Hell. I may have bilked my viewers out of their money, but I have never bilked them out of their souls! Everything I do, I do it to help people achieve Salvation through Jesus Christ. Another preacher might not take money from his followers, but spreads a perverted false Gospel.
Who is the real con man here?
|
Essentially you. People aren't paying a Catholic priest or Lutheran minister for preaching things to them, they're doing it because they believe it to be right. You knew you were wrong in fleecing them out of their money so it's you at fault.
You don't know for sure that they're losing their 'souls', you just believe it like they believe they won't.
The Omega is harsh but I think he has the right idea..

There you go twisting Brother Jim's words around. He admits to doing wrong but states, very correctly, that he has not sent people to hell like the preachers and preists he refers to.
I just don't think it is right to find fault with a man of God like Brother Jim.

Rev. Jim Osbourn, I like your post but I couldnt resist checking something. You joined in June '09, about two years ago~730 days. According to your stats, in that time you have posted >8000 posts. Rounding down that is "about" 10 posts a day, every day, for two years. Tell me again about your busy schedule?

Unlike the unsaved teenage trash that consistently haunt our boards, the Reverend (like the rest of us) has a life away from the computer.
It's what happens when you become a grown-up.
