The Whole Religious System is a Lie so why are any of You shocked about this Man? The DELUSION is astonishing, Everything is finished* EVERYTHING That's Not Manifesting according to what's FINISHED is no better than Jamal Bryant. Smh
I fear that Christians are falling for the celebrity lifestyle, designed by the world. However, we are to live quiet and simple lives as Christ our Savior taught us.
@@daviddavis6732 "quiet lives" meaning humble, keeping small circles, NOT BEING A CELEBRITY,etc. There's a difference in glorifying Him with your everyday lifestyle, keeping, reading and teaching the word and having fellowship if possible...and being a mega church "pastor" that pours syrup on the Bible.
I have just discovered your channel; your analysis is absolutely excellent; be encouraged my brother; anytime we call out sin and try to comply with scriptures, we will be attacked by Christians and called "self-righteous."
As Black People we are our on worst enemy, we kick those in our community that are humble, mild-mannered, authentic, loyal and trustworthy but flock towards the whoremongers, the scammers, the boastful, the proud, and the arrogant. Seeing we as black people and America as a nation are no different than sodom and gomorrah shall come under judgement if we are not already. God Help Us All.
Black People in and outside the church organization turn a blind eye to sin and hide behind we have all sinned and come short….humility, meekness, repentance are directed to the last row of pews.
“Got my GED,went to community college and got my doctrine, I’m the man.“Buying my suits out of K&G,now I buy suits all over the country, I am the man” “started out doing radio at 12 am now I’m the most televised pastor, I’m the man” 👀 you can do all those things but can’t be loyal to one woman?
Hello, I agree with the notion that a preacher with issues should be sat down and disciplined to be restored no problem there. My issue with some of the content of the video is this political commentary (Walker/Warnock) along with the political garbage in the churches, it's not just Jamal. I go to a ultra conservative republican America loving megachurch in San Antonio. I get this political foolishness pretty much every Sunday. I started going here 15 years ago when I was younger in my faith now I'm a different person spiritually but still go here. Let me say this please pay attention. Any True believer will not endorse any political party, conservatism is just as wicked as liberalism . If you bring the scripture into this arena, sins will be rampant on both sides of the political spectrum, the bible is not just homosexuality and abortion, stop cherry picking sins if are you going to merge the bible into this space. By the way, the Republicans are just as responsible for the spirit behind the homosexuality and abortion in this nation as the liberals. They only oppose the tangible manifestation of these issues they help manifest along with the liberals. Most people will never see this because man made religion still dominates the spiritual landscape of this nation, and most are being mentally manipulated by man made religion and man made politics. Stop endorsing any man made partisan political party trying to support that party with the bible. The systems of this world are evil, even a political party that projects itself as being "faith based" that is a lie. Republicans are heathens like democrats if you bring the bible into this area. Expose it all or leave the bible out of it, cherry picking the sins of 1 party while being silent on the sins of the other party is deep rooted deception plan and simple. I say this all in love, I enjoy the channel but real believers need to stand against both of these parties and call all sin out, not just the sins that the man made systems (media, religion, politics) like to bring before the masses. Real believers should consider being independent if we merge faith and politics because the light of scriptures exposes the evil within both of these man made parties.
I love you, Brother. Every thing you say is right on the money. There are preachers out there, "big names", I have their books, tapes, DVDs etc - but no more, because of politics and "cherry picking" certain sins. One of the Pharisaic criticism of Jesus was that He was a "friend of publicans and sinners". Nuff said!
You just said a mouthful! WOW. So thankful the Lord saw fit to confirm what my husband and I have been speaking for YEARS!! May God continue to Bless and keep you!
🇺🇸✝️🙏…like you Sir, I’m somewhat disappointed for the political INFERENCES made in a otherwise “on point” and timely message! I left my positive comments to Corey, hoping for the opportunity to discuss “CEASAR” in a future discussion! I just did not want to deflect from the outstanding message given today! HOWEVER, HOWEVER, HOWEVER; to your point, there is EVIL-Plenty Of EVIL- to go around from all political parties(CEASAR) in America: herein Corey appeared somewhat naive! However; I have, and will continue to be a strong supporter of Corey and (Smart Christians)! I’m nearly 78 years young: I brag that Corey Minor is “My Son” in The Lord! Theoretically Corey is a younger version of myself: I identify with him in so many ways! HOWEVER!!! However we need to have an extended conversation about “CEASAR” and our citizenship role in The American Experiment, and Everyone’s CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS ,and their right to go to Hell on a scateboard ,IF THEY CHOOSE TO!!! You, I, or Corey can try to PERSUADE THEM through the Gospel of OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS THE CHRIST, however we will! In America even the evil-doer gets to choose;Jesus Himself said: “…render unto CEASAR the things that are Caesar’s; and render unto God, the things that are GOD’S!!! We are not citizens of Russia! We are not citizens of The United Arab Emirates; and by the way, are not we GLAD that we are not citizens of North Korea???? WE ARE ALL CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA: Location; North America Continent; PLANET EARTH! We all should be GLAD and THANKFUL!! RSVP:Leroy Steven Henry Greenlee 803-760-6882
This video Bro. Corey was very good! If people take a look at Empowerment Temple he had more women parishioners than men. So many preachers and pastors use their role to take advantage of people, which is ultimately turning people away from the church. Thank you for this insight!
When I listened to this I got down on my knees and ask G for for real forgiveness. That was a sermon. May God bless you. We need your type of preaching. When I listened to what Mr. Bryant did when talking about Herschel Walker, fear came over me to see "church people" signing on to it. God is a merciful God. Christian should really stop playing Church.
Brother Corey! All I can say is wow and ouch. Thank you so much for teaching Christianity first over our blackness and culture issues. So many of us are blinded by our racial issues and causes and do not take the Bible seriously. May God bless you …please continue using your platform to teach biblical truth.
@@ubiquity02 Amen my friend, I am so glad we are not all deceived and tricked into that divisive snare of our enemy. Let God be glorified in how we view all of his “Image Bearers”.

Dear brother Corey, I really appreciate a true man of God holding the truth without bias. As a black man myself I have to wonder when I see all these people of my race falling for supposed men of God instead of God himself, What is wrong with our people?
I think it's because of the trauma/slavery/oppression that blacks have been through that causes some to cling to things that feed their itching ears. I think it's out of hope and survival they give themselves over to what sounds empowering and then are deceived.
@@tahuyachris Yes plenty of white people also. I would like to see a video on Hank Kunnemen, Kat Kerr, Paula White (well she preaches to black people) Jesse Duplantis, Mark Murillo, Robin Bullock and many more.
Mr. Corey those people in the church are very desperate to be clapping and shouting for this man just talking about himself. I'am the man 😭😭 He's so self centered May God have mercy!
He's an entertainer a motivational speaker that's it in today's time you don't need to be anointed just popular just knowledgeable you don't even need the anointing anymore he's not the only one
I’m so glad Corey is putting this truth out there. But, I disagree with Jamal being an idiot. Idiots don’t know better. I believe Jamal knows exactly what he’s doing when he LIES and manipulated scripture. “Fool” is a perfect word.😮

I have heard a lot of negative things about this so called pastor and it appears his agenda is not about winning souls for Christ, but all about himself. .👍❤😀🙏🏽💕
All about himself he is what Yeshua came against Sadducess and Pharisess and there Hallaca laws they created out of the Laws Hasheem gave us that were commandments but they created these Hallac for there own selfish needs and wants and this is this man right here ,what they want to call Annointing is worldly Charisma that plays off the emotions of men and women

I do not understand the WOMEN who listens, shops, and claps for what he is saying. I believe those WOMEN are looking for something lord someone they cannot have. How dare he try and compare himself with David. He is sickening and a disgrace to the Christian body. Notice his voice monotone during this sermon is soft to attract the women; it is the voice of a man trying to sweeten things up with a women after he has messed up. I do not understand why at least some of the people walk out when he said that Jesus lived 80% of his life out of order.
Jude 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Tim 3:6 -7 They are the kind who worm their way into households and captivate (charm, bewitch) vulnerable women who are weighed down with sins and led astray by various passions, 7who are always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth.
Thank you brother ❤These men that claims to be Pasrors is going to be accountable for there actions. "What does a man profit to gain the whole world than to loose his soul." And those scriptures applIes to women as well!
He is the worst! He is regularly a guest preacher at a “church” in my hometown because he and the pastor are in the same fraternity. I know many ppl that attend this church. It’s sickening.
Question is is which Royal Family is their fraternity the gatekeeper for?He and many other Pastors,Ballers,Actors etc are controlled by their Khazarian Mafia Masters.
The problem is, Jamal HIMSELF is a TERRIBLE theologian. The crazy thing about that is, he was raised AME, and his father is the former presiding Bishop for the AME denomination. Anyone who knows anything about Methodism in all of its variations knows that most Methodist churches won’t even let you preach your first sermon until you have a degree in ministry.
Thank you Corey for running your channel the way you do. We ain't perfect and I don't agree with 100 percent of your topics of discussion as it relates to calling out people, but I chew on the meat and spit out the fat, because if it were not for you and a few others I trust to bring sound doctrine I wouldn't know to beware of these anti-gody preach-olitic wolves, so thank you, thank you, God bless you and please keep em coming. I'm glad you didn't cuss! Lol, I did it for you, God still workin over here. I like to call it emphasizing, not cussing....I guess that's me being like anti-brother Jamal! Haha, smh. Lord help us all!!
I agree with what your Dad said . We are in this because of the disobedience acts we’ve caused to ourselves. Lord gave us simple directions to do . But we didn’t follow his commands. We need to be in order unless we are going to continue to fail ❤
Do you think other races do everything right. Absolutely not. We all no matter what color have sinned and fallen short of God's Glory. Do you tell anyone how to ask God's forgiveness. You shouldn't put that out there
Hi Corey, been listening to your channel for just a little while now and enjoy hearing your teaching. I just heard you say "in the DFW area"...I too am in the area. Good to hear someone local on here giving a good word. Thank you for all you do!!

The problem is there is no accountability in the church period . Jamal Bryant was seeing his ex wife & was on her reality show . He gets a young girl that went to his church ( Eddie Long’s former church ) pregnant. Giselle Bryant was acting like her & Jamal were a couple . She was going to Atlanta on Sunday to hear him preach. The ladies on the reality show called Giselle out on it . She knew ! Eddie Long’s former wife is the First Lady of the church . She did absolutely nothing . Because he is bringing in big money in the church . She is turning a blind eye just like she did to Eddie Long . But people keep flocking to the church . These pastors vote for politicians that they know are for abortions. They make their churches democratic voting districts. GOD is not pleased with any of this !!! Jamal Bryant is full of himself .
I’m wondering why you are brining his ex into this. All the facts are clear, what bothers me is the way folks are making his ex and his children be accountable for what Jamal did years ago. Are we not suppose to have empathy for a young mother that wanted to trust her husband and keep her family intact? I see Gizelle be critiqued and down right disrespected because of who she married. Why is this society so quick to point fingers at the woman. I don’t believe that anyone in the comment section was more affected and hurt by Jamal actions than his wife and kids.. careful.. sounding a little judgey
@@wendytaylor8464 that my point. Jamal is not being being a good pastor, husband or father. But why is the ex wife constantly harassed and down right shamed and disrespectful for her ex husbands actions.
Brother Corey, I recently discovered you on here and I love your passion for the Word of God. You are a diligent student…! Please keep defending God’s awesome Word.
Yo Jamal is in deep trouble for saying Jesus was 85% in error. Then Marvin sitting up there looking shocked 😲 yet didn't say a word. If this isn't blasphemy then I don't know what is. I'd be scared that God would strike me dead after saying such things. No fear of God at all....
The problem is ... the church isn't holding their own accountable anymore & it's sad & blasphemous. Yolanda Adams labeled God as a "it" "she" "him" or "whatever you want to call Him b/c God is a spirit". SMH & the Clark Sisters, Kirk Franklin, Marvin Sapp etc. are no better
Hey brother Corey, I really appreciate your dedication and your commitment to GOD and his people keep up the great work my brother 🙋🏿♂️🙏🏿💯😉🤝🏿Xavier Washington and family 👊🏿
How many things have leaders and pastors all over the world done things that they weren't proud of period, I bet if we all look at ourselves we can think of a time that things were done in the dark and maybe it came to light maybe it didn't. But we thrive to be better.I find that the hole that people try to dig for one they eventually fall in themselves. I think it's best that if we weren't there that we not fall Into judgment. Sometimes life has a way of bringing those types of things into our own life just to see how we handle it. Blessings and peace be unto you and your family.
This is why God tell us to know who labor among you. There are few real preachers. What's done in the dark, will come to the light. The Bible says there are few that find the way. People who excuse these kinds of preachers are making excuses to continue in their sins. We all will stand before the judgement of Christ. The Bible says few that find the way. You better know you are living the biblical way. Why you think Jim Jones killed all his followers...they could not think for themselves. They totally depended on their leader...you better read God’s Word and live it...
So because you say(which shouldnt be a revelation to anyone) that we've all sinned and fallen short of the glory of GOD, this type of behavior shouldn't be called out? You're sadly mistaken and i believe this is the main reason this type of nonsense is allowed to go on so long. There's a scripture that says to, "judge a tree by the fruit it bears". Youre right, we have all sinned, and will continue to do so until we take our last breath. The difference is, most of us arent claiming to be pastors, leading people to salvation, case closed.
@@Proverbspsalms Thank you for addng about 2 cents worth of insult, your @ is very misleading.. But you go ahead with your insulting self just remember life happens so try and stay on your square
@@sbdesignexcellence2966 my square is on the Bible that you don’t read, and Jamal only reads it to twist it, and lie on God. The one whose misleading is that wolf whose damning people to hell that you worship- Hell happens. But you stay in your spiritual coma 🤷🏽♀️

Is he right though that this is America's WORST black pastor? What about the unmarried black female pastor who got pregnant and said she will not he slut shamed out of the pulpit? What about the pastor who keeps getting caught in adultery and buys his wife an expensive car out of guilt.? What about the openly gay black pastors? I get it if you want to call Jamal Bryant one of the worst, but singling him out as the worst is a bit much.
Expose the pastors who are sexually abusing young members, stealing from the elderly, using people bank accounts without them knowing, sleeping with both genders while teaching against it. Y’all have a list of people long before you get to Jamal

Here's the thing, I trust my instincts and Jamal has evil written all over him. The first time I saw him I knew he was no good. Then I heard him, instincts confirmed.
Brother you be on point. I do not get so high that if I sinned I try to do anything but acknowledge my flat out sin…sit down if I’m in some lead role in ministry. Go do my first works over. Keep on doing what you are doing
When you hear how Tweet now feels about the church as a result of this man, you can’t help but be angry. He’s playing with people but he will have to give an account at some point
@@Proverbspsalms Of course., but when do you change and fix your mess?They are called to preach the truth. We all issues but The Bible says that “Those who are called to teach will be judged severely”.
@@astersdixon3142 did my comment go over your head?. I’m not in agreement with Brandt or Marvin Sapp. I’m just making a point that he cannot say anything when he’s in a fraternity and when his paycheck is coming from the world.
@@astersdixon3142 👍🏾most these people aren’t gonna be saved. I don’t think people understand that a lot of these people were placed up the there by Satan.
It’s just sickening the way people make other flawed humans into idols. They don’t even go that hard to defend Yahusha. They just love degeneracy!! Everyday I understand the Flood more and more!!!!
Continue speaking Truth, Sir! This preacher is Not the worst! There are many unscrupulous pastors, leading the people of God into ignorance of the Word of God. We must study the Word individually to become sons and daughters of Almighty God! There are so many ignorant 'Christians' who are sitting in church for entertainment purposes only!
Corey, I so love and appreciate all of your videos exposing the fraud of some of these big name preachers and pastors. The sad thing though is that there are so many church goers who are a part of fraudulent ministries on a local level. This is especially true in the DFW.
Wow! Thank you! I can't wait for Jesus to be preached and not hatred and racism. I've been in a few "black" churches and was received in love, (I'm white), it was an Awesome and uniting experience. If I went to this "Pastors " church, I'd be afraid of getting beat up. Did he say he went to Oxford??? I don't buy it, I think Oxford would teach you how to read a text in context! "I'm the Man"??? You've got to be kidding! This is a great channel! God bless! You're in my prayers brother!🙏❤
These preachers and their flocks, are lacking the HOLY SPIRIT, which leads to DISCERNMENT of what is right and what is SIN! Brother Corey, KEEP UP THE TRUTH TELLING ‼️
I could care less about Herschel Walker. He's not a pastor. He is not tasked with leading a body of believers to holiness. Jamal is. So to was Warnock. There will be a stricter judgment for them according to the Bible.
Great video!!! At the 1.13th you were on fire!!! We need to fix our own black issues before supporting a party and organization that’s antithetical to us. We need to be honest with ourselves
No party is perfect, but the democrat party has sold out to Marxist, and Marxist believe government is god. Repubs are the better, for now. I love Hershel Walker!
David was the boy whose own father even forgot about him when Samuel was sent to anoint one of Jesse’s sons. Jesse had to ask, “Are these all your sons”.
I hate when preacher's change their voice. I can't stand the theatrics of church anymore🤦🏿♀️ I've been out for about 7wks. After going to the biggest fanciest church in town with their coffee bars, concession stands, smoke, lights, stages, convenient times and very little scripture but tons of personal stories of how the various speakers overcame their trials and what they learned. I just can't anymore. Then at our blk church's ppl are whooping and hollering and acting all silly. I just can't. I've given several churches a try and I know no church is perfect but right now I'm worn out with these places🤦🏿♀️🤦🏿♀️
As man I feel exactly how you feel!!! IM EXHAUSTED BEHIND ALL OF THIS FOOLISHNESS! Especially when they display the theatrics in their voices, like why do you have to do all this???? I guarantee you that the disciples didn’t preach like this nor sound like this! They do this to be famous and well known! They are not concerned about souls. They are concerned about their celebrity status and bank accounts!
I am so glad to hear some of my own views stated. Whenever I start a conversation with folks about these types all you know what breaks out! They are blind being lead by the blind. I cannot find one black person who claims to be Christian here in my circle (this includes relatives) who agree with anything I say and it's in their faces and some are so called leaders in their various congregations. During the last election I spoke with a relative an , (An Evamgelist) about my stand on abortion and the 2 political parties stands. I told her I cannot vote pro-abo. She said, "We can work that out later" She became upset when I said "Tell God that" Thanks for making it less lonely out here!
Honey. Those are toxic people who will corrode you. You'd be better off alone during the holidays, or stopping by a friend's house with a like mind, than spending it around them. As a Libertarian voter who was raised in conservative circles where EVERYONE voted Republican "without fail," I can tell you we were both raised with tribalistic thinking. And as I got older, I questioned what I was taught, and realized that I don't need the government to tell me how to live my life, or encourage others to live a Biblical life. And I'm certainly not going to use the government to tax other individuals just for my gain. And that's likely what your family is in to because of their bad decision making. And then they call themselves "an evangelist" just to hide their irresponsible behavior and decision making they impose on their own household's, and enable others to do the same. Libertarians are split on the abortion issue, but even "pro-choice" Libertarians will not fund Planned Parenthood with our tax dollars, which is how most abortions occur. Because Libertarians believe it is wrong to force the taxpayers to pay for things they have a moral objection to.
I could not vote Dem due to God's view of abortion & homo sexuality & could not vote rep because that party has descended into madness. As much as I cherish my right to vote I abstained.

Listen ...the bible specifically speaks of people like Warnock and Bryant. The Lord Jesus refers to these individuals as " Wolves in 🐑 clothing. Hopefully they will repent before it's too late.
I would tell people not to vote for Sen Warnock. He is not a true pastor. I feel bad for that church keeping him as a pastor who supports abortion, I bet same sex marriage too. He can't even stay married
@@RaiderRSupastar Facts 100% This man's reason for still breathing shows that God is truly rich in mercy and long suffering. But be assured that Judgment day is coming.
This was amazing and spot-on! It's unbelievable how some people can stand in the pulpit and freely blaspheme! And that last comment...! This man not only tickles ears, he ravages them with complete EVIL.
Corey, continue to be bold for the Lord. Always remember keep God first and allow the Holy Spirit to direct you. I Thank God for allowing me to come across your channel. We need the truth because we are living in perilous times!!!!!!!!
Tweet is old news to this. She’s beautiful & popular. Haven’t heard any latest hits yet but I loved her music. In an old interview, she stated she not going to church anymore because of him. Her daughter even knows about this. May God help Bryant.
I am late to this topic Corey but this is sad yet good and my heart breaks for Tweet and her church hurt because it can be the worst hurt from your pastor, church members and affiliates! My prayer is that she fast and pray and ask God for guidance to return her heart back to a bible based church who will teach her what God wants for her to do in the church; Thank you for this great , detailed subject on Jamaal Bryant and he definitely needs to repent instead of talking about being the "man"
JAMAL BRYANT IS A WORLDLY PREACHER ,NOT A SERIOUS PREACHER FOR JESUS .HE IS NOT SERIOUS ABOUT GOD'S KINGDOM and neither is his ex GIZELLE BRYANT .BOTH WORLDLY .
What did he do?? Edged out Creflo Dolla?!! I never thought I'd see the day. Oh, what he said about Christ. He shouldn't have said that. Jamal had better stop being careless with the Lord. He should know better than that. SMH 🤦🏽♀️
Excellent, Excellent, Excellent video and to God be the glory. Keep letting the Lord use you, Corey, to speak the truth and continue to stand in His truth. In the Mighty Awesome Name of Jesus Christ, Amen!!!!!!
"Get me another church, get me out of here" No introspection or humility at ALL. "The heart above all things is deceitful and desperately wicked; who can know it" (Jeremiah 17:9) We must ALL guard our own hearts
Brother Corey I believe you and others like you are being used in these last days to expose the fake and the foolery; we have been bamboozled by these pastors…..
Years ago, I interviewed Jamal Bryant for a book that was meant to share how God has moved in the lives of individuals. I wanted to interview him because I did not know anything about him and, since he was a preacher, he would have a wealth of stories about God making a way for him. At one point, I stopped the interview to remind him about the purpose of the book and that I really needed to hear from him how God showed up and moved mountains. There is no chapter about Jamal Bryant in the book.
WoW! The scripture that comes to mind is: 2 Timothy 3:1-9. It is very scary that people are still supporting him/his church. Arrogant and narcissistic he is… he had so much potential. Fame, and money and sex always get them. That’s why pastors have to establish safeguards and accountability partners (other men, not women). There’s nothing humble about Mr. Bryant. I am praying that he gets back on track.
This commentary was so POWERFUL and much needed! I’m so glad this Man of God: Mr. Corey did NOT back down. 2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine
I like your point of view on things and I agree with a lot of what you say. But I feel like a true Christian can’t be “pro-black” or “pro-any race”. I believe a true Christian doesn’t see race at all. I believe a true Christian lives like Christ (like you say) and sees human beings for human beings. Despite race and religion, especially race and religion. All glory and praise to God. God bless you brother! Sending much love and respect to you bro!!!!
He has children that will have to deal with this. God is the ultimate judge. Yes everyone is entitled to their feelings, but what’s the point in constantly putting out this trash for his kids to have to keep reliving..
