Popular Texas preacher, Bishop TD Jakes told his congregation on Christmas Day that he would not use the sacred day of Christmas to address his purported relationship with embattled music producer, Diddy and the allegation of sleeping with men.
He, however, described the report which had shocked the Christian community as a lie.
TD Jakes has been trending over rumours of a relationship with Diddy after some social media users claimed the preacher attended sex parties hosted by the music producer, questioning his sexuality.
Addressing the scandalous Diddy-related TikTok rumours about himself during his Christmas service, the preacher noted that some people came in solely to hear what he had to say about the buzz.
He made it clear he would not address a lie.
He said that the pulpit was meant for the word of God.
He said: “All of you who expect me to address a lie, you can log off. I will not use this sacred day and this sacred pulpit to address a lie when I have chance to preach a truth. I will stand straight up, head up, back straight and preach the unadulterated, infallible word of God because that is what the pulpit is for.”
