November 19, 2023 Bishop Carlton D’Metrius Pearson, one of the most popular and influential preachers in America and around the world, who sacrificed everything for a message of unconditional love and acceptance by God, died peacefully the night of November 19, 2023, at the age of 70, after a brief battle with cancer that had returned after first defeating it 20 years ago. He was surrounded by his family. Moving to Tulsa in 1971, to become a student at Oral Roberts University, Carlton was invited by Oral Roberts himself to join the World Action Singers on his nationally-aired TV specials, eventually becoming an associate evangelist with the Oral Roberts Evangelistic Association in 1975. In 1977, Carlton launched his own ministry, Higher Dimensions, Inc., traveling the country with a small ministry team. In 1981, with the help of his college roommate, Gary McIntosh, Carlton started Higher Dimensions Evangelistic Center, with 75 people attending its first service in Jenks, Oklahoma. Quickly outgrowing the small, storefront location in Jenks, Higher Dimensions eventually settled at 8621 South Memorial Drive in Tulsa, becoming an integrated, multi-ethnic, cross-cultural congregation of more than 5,000 members. A national television program launched in the mid-1980s, “Everything’s Gonna Be All Right,” expanded Carlton’s outreach to a national and international audience, becoming at that time one of only two African American preachers with a nationwide television ministry. His annual AZUSA Conference, begun in 1988, became an international movement, giving national exposure to a number of preachers and gospel singers, bringing together believers of all denominations, cultures, races and walks of life. The annual conference attracted as many as 70,000 people to Tulsa each year, generating tens of millions of dollars to the Tulsa economy during the week-long conference, as well as smaller weekend conferences held across the country each year, such as Los Angeles, Atlanta, Philadelphia, San Jose, Tacoma, Buffalo and even Durban, South Africa. His “Live at AZUSA” albums were nominated for multiple Dove and Stellar Awards, winning three Stellar Awards for “Carlton Pearson Live at AZUSA 2: Precious Memories.” On the opening night of AZUSA ‘96, a group of pastors and bishops recognized his leadership by declaring him “a bishop in the Lord’s church.” The opening night of the following year’s conference, Bishop Carlton Pearson was officially consecrated in an ecclesiastical ceremony as the Presiding Bishop of the AZUSA Interdenominational Fellowship of Christian Churches and Ministries, establishing oversight of thousands of churches and ministries all over the world. He gave counsel to multiple U. S. Presidents, as well as a number of international presidents, kings and other leaders, who were won over by his intelligence, charm, humor and kindness. At the height of his popularity, Bishop Pearson had a shift in his theological beliefs, and began to preach that Jesus did not just die for and save Christians, but for all mankind, and that no one goes to hell as we’ve known it. This became known as “The Gospel of Inclusion,” a form of Christian theology known as universalism. This shift in belief caused churches, upon whose stages he once frequented, to close their doors to him, shut down his annual conference and caused his church to dwindle from thousands to only dozens. His theological shift was dramatized in a major motion picture, Netflix’s “Come Sunday,” starring Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years A Slave), Danny Glover (The Color Purple, Lethal Weapon), LaKeith Stanfield (Judas and the Black Messiah, Atlanta) and Martin Sheen (Apocalypse Now, The West Wing). Carlton’s message and example of unconditional love, though it gained him the moniker of “heretic” by some in the Christian church, had a whole new world opened to him as a result. Non-Christians, as well as Christians who had left the church as a result of church hurts, abuse, hypocrisy, etc., loved the new message of love, healing and restoration. He leaves a legacy of love through the multiplied thousands of lives he touched during his time on earth and the impartation of grace and mercy he preached and exhibited to everyone he encountered. The Pearson family would like to thank everyone for their prayers and continued support. They ask for and appreciate privacy during this challenging time. Services are pending.
They are not meant for him….I am a pastor with five campuses around world…The people are not mine….they belong to Jesus…this is his church….He is the chief shepherd i am an under Shepherd….let all praise, all glory, all honour and all relationships ultimately go to him not me…..let us quietly fade and let the saviour of the world be exalted, magnified and exalted from our lives. We are donkeys delivering our saviour to his people (they are not my people) Pastors/Donkeys we carry him and all the focus is for HIM
For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. - 2 Timothy 4:3-4 KJV
Amen. Some turn away. I can't fathom ever saying I don't believe in God as I once was. Also, saying God's in heaven isn't in Genesis. It is God in Singular sense not plural.
We love Bishop. I too am battling cancer and praying for your speedy recovery. But if we don't remain in these human bodies, I hope to meet you in person on the otherside. The Real world.
Carlton, we were classmates in junior and senior high and pretend siblings. I remember you being on fire for the Lord and not ashamed to share the gospel on campus. I still remember you singing, "I Want to Live So God Can Use Me" in the talent show when no one else dared sing a gospel song in front of their peers! I've been praying for quite a while now that you will find your way back to the God of your youth and early ministry and to the truth of Jesus Christ. Blessings and love, little brother.
@@guardianofthebull4833 Let it be known that just as the Bible speaks of heaven there is a hell. I pray that he will come back to the truth. We are all going to either heaven or hell.
I am s seminary graduate and ordained minister of the gospel. Most importantly, I am a child of God...the God Who never changes...the Word that never changes, despite misguided human interpretation.
@@solidrock4168 You read from the English translations which are false. As a scholar he reads from the Hebrew. A lot of people don't read the Hebrew, so he continuously gets these misinformed people on his forum. Again : Check his old videos and posts in which he is explaining everything. Also in the comments these things have been explained again and again. Also check Veron Ashe's prophesy from 2000 (two years before his change), as he already prophesied that these things would happen.
I've always loved you Bishop Pearson & I believe you had the courage a lot of pastors didn't & still don't have to bring forth truth when they learn it. May God Bless you & take care of you. May God heal you. Love You % Praying for you.
Peace. The Bishops Celebration Services were both Excellent! I learned even more and I cried and had so much joy for his life, heartache and family and friends. And I love his teachings his wisdom on what words mean, his consciousness of language and scripture, humor, song and life while still learning and rising higher and deeper. I pray we can still watch these videos on you tube for a long time. He ushered in many many people and he went to realms they did not want to go. Peace to the Family.
Sobering message. It's been years since I've listened to him. Such a great point he made about how we can't wait to get to heaven...until it's time to actually go.
Carlton Person is a good person and he deserves to be recognized for being a true leader and he deserves all the love, let God be the witness and theJudg” AMEN.😂Pastor Carlton was The one who took Me the next step in my Siritual journey,I was raised in a Baptist church , so God Be with you my Brother in Christ.
These thoughts crossed my mind also that the doctrine of inclusion took you through a very dark and painful season of your life through much loss and disconnections of many in the body of Christ that you were in covenant relationship, who turned against you. I pray that you found it in your heart to forgive, release and bless those who turned away from you. My desire is to see you make Heaven. God has not forgotten your labor of love in his vineyard…my hearts desire again, is that you would look to the God that your fathers in the faith, parents and grandmother spoke to you about. I pray that Gods mercy will meet you in your final moments through a revelation of HIS love for Carlton Pearson, that there will be a reconciliation and a reunion through revelation of this knowledge and truth. Hell was not made or prepared for mankind or humanity. God send no one there, our personal choices in our Faith decides our outcome and destination and he has not left us ignorant on how to choose our eternal home. God bless you Sir and I pray for you and your family as you all transition through these very difficult moments together..
I remember back in the 80's/90s we couldn't wait to get home with our parents from our night service to see Bishop Carlton preach and sing on TBN! Please look up Live in Azusa! One thing for sure we all have to die and stand before the Lord and give an account for our life down here. Read Rev.20:12!
When I heard that you’d been ostracized by the church(heard in 2021), I was stunned! I’d already left church and ministry in 2000, 21 years earlier, bc I’d simply seen far too much, for too long that I knew wasn’t God. I left my marketing post at the current church I was in and out I went. I have never ONCE regretted leaving: NOT ONCE. When I began to investigate why you’d been shunned, I was shocked but not surprised, because everything you were saying, I’d come to question back in ‘97-98. The lies, deception and untruths, along with so much more, my conscious and my heart for God and Jesus’ teaching wouldn’t allow me to stay. I started praying for you then, because I knew the religious vipers would never stop gnawing at you and that you needed to get through this and toughen up under the Hell they dispense: they’re excellent at kicking their own to death. Sir, I love you. Been following you for some time now. You’re the first person who prophesied to me, right after graduating from college. I still remember the prophesy, way back from 1990! It’s been a long journey for me, but I wouldn’t trade a thing! I love you. I’m standing w/you and I am grateful for your ministry. I bought all your writings since you left the religious tangled web. They’ve blessed me bc they affirmed every thing I’ve learning in my deconstruction. I had no one to assist me or who would /could, but the Spirit never leaves us and I simply trusted and remained open. You, along with others that I discovered, literally fell in my lap with books, videos, etc., confirming(not that I even sought for any) all that I was learning, perceiving, seeing, hearing from within me. You Sir, are much appreciated, much needed and much loved and adored. The WOKE know who you are and live the messages that you share, because they’re open wide to what the Universe IS and OFFERS. LOVE YOU BISHOP! Prayers continue for you. You’ve already left a wonderful legacy in the Earth. If you must go, and one day we all will, ours is the continue to allow our conscious to expand and assist others who are awakening and those whom we walk alongside. You’ll always be with us: in unison. I love Sir. 👍🏽👊🏽👏🏽👌🏽❤️
I continue to pray for Bishop. I remember as a college student he visited Daytona Beach's Bethune Cookman preaching Dry Bones Live Again... Praying God would heal and bring spiritual clarity. That all unsettled questions and business would be addressed with God.
Bishop Carlton Pearson, my prayer for you is that your soul will be healed. You were a stalwart in the FAITH! Who bewitched you sir? 😢 If hell does not exist why the hell are we striving to go to heaven? Why did Jesus have to die horrendously to save us, from what and where? Why does the bible say the soul that sins shall surely die? If hell does not exist then we can all just live like the devil, raise hell and then go to heaven, right? The devil is a liar and the father of lies! Deception is one of the weapons of the devil in these last days and unfortunately some of us are victims. Matthew 10:28 Jesus said “Don’t fear those who kill the body; rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in HELL. JESUS went to hell, Revelation 1:18 “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen, and have the keys of HELL and of death”.
Amen I remembered an atheist once said it's easy to be an atheist until you face death which he did Dr.s call it near death but he did say what he saw scared him so maybe God will give. Him a road to damascus. damascus His daughter sound great on the trac I'm sure that's her
Im a Witness HELL is real at least the underworld heck still feels like hell thank GOD for the holy spirit helping 🙏🙏 get back into the presence of GOD. No it was nor the dark night of the soul been there also. I was separated from GOD !!! Pure darkness
I listen to you seven day's a week to get me through and I have so for year's. I'm sorry that you have to go through this Bishop. You are in my prayers and I am going to trust God for His will over your life. I love you Bishop. ❤🙌🏾
Listen to Jesus…..get a bible app….like myself as a pastor with churches in four countries its not about me…We are at best donkeys….delivering the saviour to his people not my or his people…..we leaders need to move out of the frame…this is the JESUS Show and no one else’s
Love those days with you and Rev. Gene Martin(he is truly missed). Those recordings never get old! Those songs are still powerful to this day! ❤ praying for your strength 🙏🏾
Many people love you Bishop. Your honesty has changed lives and validated many. May you be blessed with peace, comfort and love. You aren’t leaving this planet anytime soon. You still have work to do. 🙏🏽❤️💯
Thank you, Bishop! I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone speak so gracefully about their departure from earth. 😭 I pray that you will stay with us a little longer!! However if YOU DECIDE that you no longer want to stay here I know that you will be the coolest realest ancestor we’ve ever experienced. ♥️ -LaToyaM
U have given so many people the courage to question and re-examine the things we was taught and some have found TRUE liberty and peace. We love u Bishop u will forever be a staple in our hearts and minds 🙌🏾
How intriguing that you, Carlton, would reference casting out devils🤔 “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” -Matthew 7:21-23. It is disheartening to see that even at the precipice of death💀 Carlton still refuses to repent of his apostasies. He reminds me of fallen King Saul coupled with the verse : “They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.” -1 John 2:19 It would appear Ichabod is written over his heart and mind. God will not violate anyone’s free will to choose Life, Him, or death, our own ways, thoughts and imaginations. In many cases I wish that He would, but, He, will not. Angels have free will as do we. No hell? Humph. Unrepentant, you’re soon enough to discover; notwithstanding, it will be too late. The saddest words, Carlton: LOST FOR ALL ETERNITY AND FOR ALL ETERNITY SEPARATED FROM GOD. Incidentally - after your online tête-à-tête with Dr./Apostle Spence Ledbetter, you would have repented. Obviously not. “But when a righteous man turns away from his righteousness and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does, shall he live? All the righteousness which he has done shall not be remembered; because of the unfaithfulness of which he is guilty and the sin which he has committed, because of them he shall die.” -Ezekiel 18:24
@solomonoverhead He is a child of God and a minister and does not need your hateful advice. You cannot fight successfully with God and God's ministers by lies. He already went to God many years ago. Seems you didn't but went to your idols. Pharisees are not on the side of God.
@@flibberdiscuitsIf that you agree with him you are a partaker of his blasphemous and traitorous effects. He was banished from the body of COGIC as scripture dictates. You are ignorant of the holy scriptures and you are as useless as a wet rag. Repent of your unbelief and of your following this heretic; for when he soon dies and has not repented, in hell he will uplift his sorry eyes. If you follow after his teachings and do not repent, you, too, will uplift your eyes in hell. It’s Heaven or Hell; not some, as he put it, “higher stream of consciousness.” That sounds like Buddhism or Hinduism. Get out of your feelings, and get back to Biblical facts. I pray that you might be truly redeemed from your ignorance.
Thank you Bishop Carlton!! For sharing your life with Us, You are such a blessing to the entire Body of Christ..You are an example of Greatness and strenght..Thank you for saying Yes to Life!!! 🙏🏼💕💫 We love and Respect you Highly..
Love you brother want to see you healed and delivered. I was reminded of Proverbs 14 :12-16 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful, and the end of that mirth is heaviness. The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways, and a goodman shall be satisfied from himself. Please belive in God because he is the only one who has a heaven and hell to put us in. God bless I pray for your healing and deliverance.❤
Bishop you are such an inspiration and I love your spirit. Glad to see you still have your sense of humor and not down and out and in the dumps with a sad song. Thank you for this video and the encouragement and as you said (paraphrased) “everybody want to go to heaven but don’t nobody want to die”. You a REAL ONE! ❤
I feel so much love for you Bishop Pearson. Your condition was an unpleasant surprise tonight, I must admit. But your light is glowing as brightly as ever. You don't know me, but you are the one who caused me to stop and really inquire what I believe and why. Your courage to stand up and face down the monster that "church folk" can be at times has been an indescribable inspiration to me and has changed the whole world for the better at this critical time in the spiritual evolution of mankind that I see is happening right now in front of my very eyes. My path turned a corner when I heard your story a few years ago. Now I have gone from a copycat so called Christian, secretly longing to feel something (anything!) to a real "seeker." I never thought I of all people could be so excited and curious about God. But now that you let me know that it is not only OK to question the beliefs handed down to me, but it's almost the no. 1 requirement of all of us spiritual beings in the throes of this wild physical bodily experience we didn't even know we were having! I'm so excited to be able to look for God every day, though I know he's right here as I type this message. God bless you sir. I love you and it would be my honor and privilege to meet you in person someday. Calling you simply an inspiration is such a gross understatement that I won't bother. Just know that I and countless others love the timeless, ageless, perfect part of you, the real you. ❤❤❤❤ Cheers 🥂 from Mobile AL! 🥂 - Glenn Johnson
I love you, Bishop! I declare by the Blood of Jesus, you are healed now!🙏🏽🙏🏽 I appreciate your sermons out of Higher Dimension, I honor you for being a man of honor and integrity, and I thank you for creating Azusa Conference. This was absolutely the best conference of all times. Be blessed always, sir. I look forward to hearing your full testimony on how you made it through this. ❤❤❤
Bishop, THANKS FOR BLESSING US WITH THOSE BEAUTIFUL AZUSA MINISTRY YEARS!!! I"ve always said you have ALWAYS played a very integral part in bringing the masses together...no matter the DENOMINATION!! ....May GOD BLESS AND KEEP YOU IS MY PRAYER!!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💕
I’m encouraged and alive because of you Bishop Pearson and I thank God for you. I’m better and not bitter. Praying for your healing and recovery in Jesus name amen 💕🙏🏾💪🏾👑. Faye
HELLO Bishop Carlton Pearson!!! I LOVE AND AM PRAYING FOR YOU AND OUR FAMILY!!! You're sounding strong in the spirit of Christ. Thank you for your words of encouragement through out this time. I will NEVER forget you Bishop Carlton Pearson as you have shedded so much light in your sermons and interviews through out the years. God have you sounding strong and still smiling. I honor you as the man of God that He made you. I wish I could give you a hug. Please pray 🙏 for me and my family. Prayerfully Hope Powers🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇🥰🥰🥰
I Love You Mr. Pearson. I have always admired those in their power and at peace as death is near. It's so admirable. Resonate to the heavens! Thank you for also spreading Christ Consciousness and bursting outside of religion!! Wonderful !
Bishop!🙏🏾 I am so absolutely grateful for your life! Words fail the energy that comes behind these words. I hope that you can feel this sentiment. NOTHING, has been in vain. This morning it has been my joy to see your face. Keep on keepin’ on! I love you!
Bishop Pearson, you've been a silent part of my spiritual walk since 1994. The late Dr. L.E. Braggs waa my pastor and you were such an amazing brother and friend to him. I'm praying for your recovery and restoration. You are loved by many.
Bishop Carlton Pearson!!! We love you and appreciate you!!! I am giving you your flowers, admiration, honor, and love while you are still here. You are a light that glowed and shine in the darkness. You became awakened and was enlightened by the Source of all things. You were Chosen to start the Azusa movement and continued forth through growth and change that the world did not understand until they too, became awakened. Thank you for all of your sacrifices, courage, teachings, love, guidance, and for bringing hope to those who felt excluded. You have changed the world and have led us into the new era that is set before us. May God continue to give you peace, comfort and strength to continue the work before you ascend to another dimension. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙌🙌🙌💪💪💪
Remember my first time seeing you on TV in my mid teens. You were on TBN. Many years later, I remember hearing you were coming to Colorado where I reside. I was so excited to say the least. You were the first Black man I saw on tv preaching the Gospel, and loving the Lord for real. You came to Heritage Christian Center so many years ago. I always loved how you would preach and tell a quick joke!! I enjoyed how you would give the Greek or the Hebrew meaning of words in the Bible. I truly loved your preaching, teaching, ministering in song, Higher Dimension’s church. Of course, I will never forget being introduced to other great ministers through AZUSA Street days. I still love you and praying for you. I know the Grace of God is with you! Thanking God for your healing and wholeness. ❤✝️
Bishop Carlton Pearon, I'm sending prayers to you. You've always been a true blessing and teacher. A phenomenal wealth of knowledge. I'm praying for healing in your body. Many blessings and much love, Bishop Carlton Pearson. 🛐🙏🏽😇❤️🙏🏽🛐❤️
Me too. I use to watch him with my grandmother . She loved him . I’m 47, now and just thinking about those days, just gives my chills, snd make me want to cry. I lost my grandmother last year, and I find myself longing for those old days. Those days were so much better than ever! Now it’s like we living day to day fighting the evil, so we make it. I hate he is sick snd going through. I pray for him as well. A very good man.
Matthew 7:21-23 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
ONLY WHAT WE DO FOR CHRIST(GOD'S WORD) WILL LAST. I BELIEVE CARTON DID MUCH PRAISE AND WORK UNTO OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN, IN JESUS NAME, AS I RELISTEN TO HIS PRAISE WORSHIP.... ALWAYS PRAY FOR OUR BELIEVERS AND WORKERS IN GOD AND IN GOD'S WORD. WE ALL MUST PRAY, FORGIVE, REPENT, AND GIVE GOD ALL HIS GLORY & PRAISE, AMEN!!!! RIP BRO PEARSON, AMEN, IN JESUS NAME, I PRAY, AMEN!!!!
I love you Bishop Pearson. Going through so much but still making sure we’re ok. It really hurt when Bishop said he’s been a man without a country for 20 years. He didn’t deserve the way he was treated. I never stopped believing in and loving him. He has certainly helped to expand my consciousness. Love and appreciate you and your life of service. I want you to Keep holding on Bishop. But ultimately Gods will be done.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Bishop Pearson! You have been part of my life since I was a little girl, listening to the Azusa albums. Your preaching has changed my life. I pray all of God's peace upon you, and your family! Thank you for your ministry! You have helped so many get closer to God. God bless you and be with you. I send all of my love❤
I don't know how God is going to judge this man when he dies? But I pray that God shows his soul mercy. Love and sincere prayers for you Bishop Carlton.
Prayers and Blessings, Bishop Pearson. One of the biggest threats to the Kingdom of darkness. One of the most anointed vessels the country/world has ever known. Blessings to the man who fasted over 10 days, very near the throne of God. Peace, Blessings, and Prayers. Send love to the whole family 😔😔🙏🥰
Bishop, this is such a wonderful message and many of us need to hear that our immortality is part of living. It’s seldom spoken of in most churches. Thank you so much because this message will have a profound effect on many of us. God bless!🙏🏽
IM IN SHOCK THAT PEOPLE THINK IN THEIR FRAIL HUMAN CONDITION FULL OF FILTHINESS OF THE spirit that they CAN JUDGE THIS SERVANT OF ELOHIM ‼️ WELL DONE SERVANT, HUMAN, MAN OF GOD‼️ ENTER INTO THE REST OF THE LORD ‼️ THANK YOU FOR DEMONSTRATING GRACE TRUTH AND RESPECT VALUE HONOR IN THE GOSPEL. ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE. NO judgement here. I'm GRATEFUL TO HAVE WORSHIPPED WITH YOU💜
I’m so sorry Bishop is gone! Is a hard pill to swallow and I have been very very sad since I found out that Bishop is gone!! I’ll yet keep holding on in your absence Bishop!! Rest in the arms of God!!
Matthew 10:28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Praying for your "spiritual" healing because cancer will end this life, but you will live in eternity in one of two places. "Repent and return, so that your sins may be wiped away, in order that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord (Acts 3:19). He talks about how he's cast out demons and done all these great things. Matthew 7:22-23 speaks about this: "Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness.’"
Bishop Pearson, you are such an eloquent speaker, and I’ve always enjoyed listening to your spiritual wisdom! You have always had such a sprite and beautiful spirit, and I rejoice in that! I wish you much peace, prayer, happiness and life; love you to life Bishop!❤❤
Blessing and prayers going up for you Bishop Pearson love you watched you for year's kept me on my feet praising God and still till this day,God never give up on us and nothing is to hard for him you are healed in the name of Jesus. 🙌🏾🙏🏾❤️
I, like many others, have loved and admired Bishop Pearson for many, many years. I admire your courage and appreciate your encouraging words of wisdom. May God continue to Bless and Keep you and your family!!
The truth is... there is NO new Gospel and no one revelation above that of God himself! I pray that people stop being moved by titles, intellect and "new" self-centered revelations and learn to stand firm on the original and infallible Word of God - PERIOD!🙏🏽
For someone to actually to deny the faith like that,He may have never actually been saved.He says theres no hell.that would mean that JESUS LIED and died for NOTHING.I feel so sorry for him.He has been so decieved.I pray God has mercy so much.I loved his ministry back in the day.
How do you know there is a hell? Have you been there? Where is it? Is it up or down? Is it to my left or to my right? Where? How do you know Jesus said that? Did you hear him say it? Who heard him say that?
@herbertjreid3rd253 in this case it's more like "someone said, someone said, someone said, someone said, someone said... since there was no disciple named Matthew, Mark, Luke or John walking around with Jesus and had pins/paper to. Record everything he said. These were stories that were passed through generations and nothing was put on paper until over 400 years after they say a Jesus existed. The catholic church added those names to the Gospels just to give them more credibility. Even worse, there were copies and copies and copies and copies that had to be made by scribes who had no light bulbs and they were copying these Gospels with candlelight. Mistakes definitely happened. Moreover, there is no original Bible. Biblical archeologist have to excavate caves and underground to get fragments of already copied scripture. Then they put it together. These fragments also contradict each other. The first bible wasn't even put together until the 1500s and it isn't even the same bible as the one they read today. Let's not even talk about translations. Christians have over 30 translations of their own Bible. So, what did Jesus really say and how do they know?
I too love Carton Pearso and always have. Its a unconditional love. The same kind of love that he has for me and others. The same kind of love that i believe God has for his children.
I wish I could have a conversation with you. Over 11 years ago I was going through an experience similar to yours and felt so lonely and didn’t know if I was going to make it. That scene in your movie when you left the church and was outside feeling like you were losing your mind, I knew exactly what you felt. I found your channel and livestreams and it helped save my life. Thank you for all you’ve done and living in your truth. Words can’t describe how much you’ve impacted my life. I’m glad you’re at peace with whatever may come. Sending you and your family my love and support❤️
Your church was the first I came to in Tulsa, OK where God was exposed to me on another level. Talk about stretching your faith and seeing things on a different level?That's what happened to me when jumped and moved to OK in 2000 and visited your church for a week. The night I got off the airplane, i was at your ministry the next day. Had no idea who you were, but I'd come to live with a pair of ladies that were members of your church, and they brought me there. A little church girl who was used to small crowds that loved the Lord. However, the biggest prayer of the congregants I was used to consisted of "Lord, help us to pay our light bills." Getting to HD and seeing people of God prosper took my thought level to another place. Wow, their are People of God that actually prosper, but more than proser, there is a level of life, love and excellence for His spirit? This is what I thought for that week I came there. Its so much to see you speak so differently now. I am not here to judge, as I dont know your heart, but, its scary to think that someone as influential in the Gospel as you can attest to not fearing God (if I heard that correctly). Perhaps you meant a different type of fear. Also, that we should seek more of consciousness than anything? Seeing someone the likes of you talk so differently about God can almost make one waiver in their faith and be fearful that they too are in confusion, because if you can go another way in your faith (someone who pioneered revivals) then what about those who have not reached a level of strong faith? I can never judge your heart, but Im just being cautious of confusion. I dont even know if I should post this here, as I know you probably get a lot of mail, and what you may consider to be judgemental warnings from people who feel you have gone astray, but I am not one of them and I want to take a chance and share something I saw in a vision about you almost a little over a year ago. It was completely random from God. I say random because I have not kept up with your ministry in years. So for me, it was random, but from God it was divine. I had a vision that I saw you sitting on the left side of your bed, and you had on a white bath robe. I saw you from the back at first. As I looked at you from behind, your head was slupmed down while you sat there on the side of your bed, and you were intensely frustrated and in agony. The vision them moved to where I focused in on your face from the front, and your face matched what I felt from you as I had watched you from behind. You were alone and no one was in the room with you. God then began to reveal to my heart that your expression of agony was a manifestation of the fight you had with Him. God then begin to reveal to me in this vision that He has been constantly tugging at you to come back to His heart, but you were fighting against Him and did not want to. Because if you did, what would you say now to all of those who you have influenced in THIS era of your life? In the vision, you knew God and knew He was pulling you back, but you just didnt want to yield. Your agony and frustration caused you to look contorted and the vibrancy you once had was completely challenged. There was a sense of strong rebellion that was there, because of all the things you had come to believe. God spoke to my spirit that you knew the truth about who He really is, and your heart had been marked by Him in such a way, that even if you never admit it to the public at large, you know that HE reigns. In the vision, you were in extreme stubbornness towards God and He revealed to me that He has been asking and dealing with you to return to His heart, appropriately. Just Him. When i say appropriately, Im not exclusively talking biblically. I mean the heart you have that has been marked by Him. That secret place that makes Him undeniable. Theology will sort itself out, as I know you are a student of the word, and could more than likely do circles around me when it comes to the understanding of the bible, per say. I say all that I post here in respect and honor to you. I had this vision, I think exactly a year ago. Im not a conspiracy theorist, and my heart is for the Father that I've grown to love and know. ❤ Just seeing your video and hearing that you were having health battles reminded me of that vision. I never even thought of sharing it with you or on any platforms because unvetted people speak crazy things all the time that make the body look like weirdos. BUT, I assure you, man of God, I am not one of them. Maybe you will see this message and maybe you wont. In any case, I'm sharing it. I pray that God heals your body and you are able to have many more amazing years to be here and love your family. If my vision is true, and you are sitting on the edge, return. He's tugging and wants you to listen to Him, not just consciousness. God bless you and your beautiful family. My heart is for you🙏❤️
Much love and peace to the bravest man of our generation and all those who love him. Thank you for your courage. We are all better because of your courage.
This is the Bishop Carlton I remember and miss (his speaking and knowledge). I am so encouraged by his thoughts on dying (though I don’t ascribe to his inclusion theology).
Carlton Pearson I thank God for your contribution to the body of Christ and the Azuza Years. However, the theology that hell is not rea, I am here to tell you it is. I died and went to Heaven and was sent back by an Angel who told me it was not my time. I also had an encounter with satan who spoke and told me he was going to kill me and in a few weeks I was on by death bed but the Angel of the Lord visited my room and my life was preserved. I saying HEAVEN is REAL and so IS HELL.. HELL was NOT prepared for MAN but satan and his fallen angels and WE HAVE TO CHOOSE not to go there and the Bible gives us clear instructions how not to go there. Such theology that there is no hell, is not in alignment with scriptures but my prayer is that you will have your final moments in conversations with God and perhaps he will reveal himself to you in a new a fresh way that will open your heart and mind in a new way of seeing to acceptance of Jesus Christ finished work to save, redeem and receive you into Glory. God bless you
He preaches God's words, not yours. He doesn't need to. You are obviously deceived. He is a minister so why would God not show him which way to go ? That's very arrogant. Pharisaism is not the way to go.
Mr. Pierson, I pray that you find your way back to Jesus. You say that you are free, but you are so bound. I pray that you find Jesus again before you leave this earth. Sir, you started well. How will you end? I pray that you repent Mr. Pierson and return to Jesus. To all who would listen to this. I pray that your eyes would be open to the Truth of the Cross. That your ears will be open to the Voice of Jesus. Jesus is The Way, The Truth and The Life. Jesus loves you, but you must come through the Way that God has offered us, Jesus Christ his Son. Ask God to reveal Himself to you. He created you and He loves you beyond what you can think or imagine. I pray salvation into your life in Jesus Name. Amen.
I always liked Bishop Pearson. Me and my mother used to watch him years ago on TV. I always believed he had a genuine heart, and I still do. Sorry to see him in this state. I will pray for him. God bless him and his family. 🌞♥
Oh! my Carlton Pearson has not reverted back to the God of his childhood but continues to embrace the teaching that he has embraced when he left the Church some years ago, thats very sad. Seems to me there never was the blood of Jesus. lt would come fourth at this stage in his life. l listen with my spiritual ears and l hear what he and they are saying. Where there is life there is still hope. Lord have mercy on Carlton Pearson soul.
Attacking a man sick on his bed is the lowest thing you can do. You should be ashamed of yourself. Keep God out of it. You are acting nowhere near God, like a vulture.
ITim4:1 Now the Spirit speakes expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith,giving heed to seducing spirits, and Doctrine of Devils. Acts 2:38 Repent be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins a ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, 🙏🏾🙏🏾 praying for restoration in Jesus name ❤
