September 22, 2004 journal, Trinity Broadcast Network secret of sodomy at Arrowhead.

The sin of sodomy will bring the Antichrist church down in time as it is happening with the Boston Archdiocese.  God is harvesting the earth as is revealed in Revelation Chapter 14, when he comes riding on a cloud with a sword in his hand reaping all filthy abominations. TBN was originally founded by Jim & Tammy Baker with Paul Crouch in the background but in the early years Paul Crouch allegedly conspired to fire Jim Bakker just before Baker founded PTL.  I wondered for years how this fancy little German guy could stand up there on television and collect so much money from people.  He fitted the Ecumenical cause and thrived through the years to build a mega Christian Broadcasting Network worldwide with 200 stations.  All along the general aim seemed to be in harmony with my Christian back ground and I applauded the good I could see being performed but now God is purging this organization and He may be revealing more than just sin in the camp.  I would like to see Trinity continue but God knows best and will not compromise his Holy Word.  Today CNN is broadcasting this as news and I expect it will go universal soon.  Quoting Yahoo news "Televangelist Paul Crouch attempts to keep the accuser quiet Sunday September 12 by William Lobdell, Times staff writer.  "Paul Crouch, founder of the world’s largest Christian broadcasting network, has waged a fierce legal battle to prevent a former employee from publishing allegations that he and Crouch had a sexual encounter eight years ago.  Crouch, 70, is the president of Trinity Broadcast Network, based in Orange County, whose Christian programming reaches millions of viewers around the world via satellite, cable and broadcast stations.  The source of allegations against him is Enock Lonnie Ford, who met Crouch at a TBN affiliated drug treatment center in 1991 and later went to work for the ministry.  After Ford threatened to sue TBN in 1998, claiming that he had been unjustly fired, Crouch reached a $425,000 settlement with him in return, Ford agreed, among other things, not to discuss his claim about a sexual encounter with the TV preacher.  But in the last year, Ford has threatened to go public with his story, prompting a flurry of legal maneuvering-conducted in closed court hearings, sealed pleadings and private arbitration.  In court papers, Crouch has denied the allegations, and the ministry officials have described Ford-who has a history of drug problems and has served time for a sex offense-as a liar and an extortionist.  At stake is the public image of one of the world’s most successful televangelist and, potentially, the fortunes of the broadcasting empire that Crouch and his wife, Jan, built over the last 31 years. TBN and Crouch went on the legal offensive after they learned that Ford had written a book that included an account of the alleged sexual encounter.  In a dramatic flourish, Ford had appeared at a TBN broadcast studio in Costa Mesa, minutes before the start of a "Praise-a-thon" fund-raiser, and, without comment, handed Crouch a copy of the manuscript.  Ford's lawyer later told ministry officials that they could keep the work out of the public view by buying the rights.  After some discussion, he suggested that $10 million might be a reasonable price.  While negotiations continued, Crouch sued to enforce the 1998 secrecy agreement-and obtained a restraining order barring Ford from seeking a publisher for his book.  Orange County Superior Court Judge John M. Watson also granted Crouch’s request to conduct the case in secret, sealing all documents and expunging any mention of the suit from public court records. Both sides eventually agreed to let a private arbitrator decide the matter.  In June, the arbitrator ruled that Ford could not publish the manuscript without violating the 1998 settlement-and that could subject him to monetary damages".  Why would he care?
