The point is we must live by the word of God, we use the word to examine ourselves, once we do that ,if there are sickness, lies, and abnormalities we have to repent and seek the face of God to recieve healing. YES!! Kwesi, We have " to perform a sin check on all of the gospel singers, pastors, and ministers of the day" and if the churches are empty, so let it, because they are enemies of God If they rather live in disobediance. How does that profit the church if true believers of the word don't stand for rightousness.

I have been blessed by the worship of Tonex over the years and when the meltdown was uncovered and I began to listen to him release the deep rooted pain in reference to being violated by a pastor and being ostrasized by the church, not only did I hear his pain but felt it also. The bible is clear that homosexuality is an abomination but lets not forget that the wages of sin is death and it didnt specify homosexual sin. We are to speak the truth in love to those who may have strayed whether straight or gay. God is the only one that knows Tonexs private struggle. If we are to minister effectively in the church its not enough to tell someone who is struggling with homosexuality that its an abomination without getting to the root of what led them into that lifestyle. There are also those who have been turned over to a reprobate mind because they refuse to adhere to the truth gay or straight.
I have witnessed the pain and struggle of those in that lifestyle and the ones I have been blessed to minister to and love on were abused and molested. And it is a pain that goes very deep that only the Lord can heal and deliver. As I continue to listen to his songs I hear him crying out loud and clear. Before we start telling churches to close the door on Tonex it appears that God is closing and shutting down some church doors. There is a reason why the scripture said to work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. The bottom line is the enemy is warring for Tonex’s soul because he was born to worship. God is a God of mercy! He is the only one that knows the heart of each and every one of us. Does love truly cover a multitude of sins? I pray that the Lord continue to teach us what it means to love unconditionaly. I continue to pray for the Lord to give the body of Christ the wisdom on how to minister to those in that lifestyle because it is a spirit of deception and the prayers of the righteous availeth much. I will continue to pray not just for Tonex but lost souls period.

I am very sorry Tnoex if you have allowed that spirit(gay) to take hold on you if in fact this is true. God has blessed you with such a great talent. I pray that you will repent and get your life straightened out with God. Rememger those anointed songs that you sang about and for you to take on such a heinous lifestyle is beyond words. While you have breath in you body please repent. Remember it is not man that you have to please but God. And He totally against homosexuality!!!

Tonex is not the ONLY person that has ever gone through terrible things in his life. All of us has. Basically, he needs to stop his mess, repent, and get saved and stop leading people astray. It is truly scary how people KNOW somebody is living an ungodly lifestyle, but because they idolize the individual, they look the other way, and protect them. God is going to judge you also.

Tonex,

I’m so sorry for what you’ve endured in your childhood. I know that you have suffered greatly. It shows in all your actions right now. I truly and I mean truly do understand and pray that God will take you in His arms and expose all the pain, hurt and heartache, as well as confusion in order to heal you completely and wholly.

You are trying to justify your actions and feel it’s you against the world, and somehow you feel having your fists always moving to combat the criticism is giving you strength. I am here to tell you from my own experience that that is NOT strength. That is deception. The enemy is loving it. Satan knows you are only beating the air, and if he can keep you constantly thinking about yourself, justifying yourself, telling yourself that the church world doesn’t get it, that you are unique and special, that all you are doing in both the secular world, in the gay world is all in love and all in the name of Jesus, then he has you right where he needs you to be in order for him to attempt to destroy you .

But you can’t stop now, you tell yourself. I have my fans, I need to have influence, I am gaining a new fan base to reach Jesus for. Only the Lord knows your heart, but I am here to tell you and I do say this with ALL SOBERNESS and no joking around, if you are in sin, and have not yielded and surrendered to God and the Holy Spirit so that He can heal you, then our Great Father will allow what is necessary in order for the ultimate goal to be reached – to bring you home safely, for His glory and His alone. Not yours. His.

How can I say this to you? Because it happened to me. And I am grateful to God for His cleansing, rebuke and disciplining love. (Revelation 3:14-22). I say this in love my brother. You need to be alone with God – drop everything – the gift without the giver is hollow and empty. Seek His face down on your face. Your life depends on it.
