      I learned that over 20 years ago when this preacher in Portland, Oregon tried to make sexual advances toward me. I was a teenager (but not a minor) when he first approached me. It took him about a year and a half before he did so. He tried to groom me in to making me think he was so concern for my soul and my spiritual well-being. He would always tell me how feminine i was because I didn’t sit a certain way and was always groomed and smelling good. To him that was “effeminate” as he would say. When he couldn’t get me to move in with him so he could try whatever he felt he could, he told me that the “Holy Ghost” told him to cut me off. What these young men are saying lines up (almost exactly) to what that guy tried to do to me. However, there was no sexual intercourse of any kind. However, he did touch me several times inappropriately and tried to blame me for his flesh getting weak and that it was mutual. He always had teenage boys around him that were emotionally attached to them. Most of them were very nice boys. Some were feminine and some were not. This person is still pastoring and calls himself and apostle. Perhaps he has repented and gotten it right before God. But I still deal with this psychologically 20 years later to this day. I had to go to therapy a few years ago as a result. He was always telling me he loved me as if it were some type of spiritual thing. As a young man I did not understand what he was doing. Now, years later, I see what he was doing. He was very controlling, acted as if he was the most anointed person on earth and was always touching us on our heads. Even tried to snuggle up with us, making us think he was just a gentle affectionate man as Jesus was. It was a whole hot mess. I hope those young men are doing ok these days. I pray for healing!

      +MaeSekou You bind the strong man of homosexuality and loose the spirit of a Holy covenant. You are straight, any thoughts coming into your mind is trying to change that . You fight against the lie, by applying the word to your mind and meditation. Your testimony is being used. Your offense does not define who you are. What"s it is , is that people get thoughts that come to their minds and they except it as their own, and sometimes it really is not. But its the enemy trying to change who you really are. Long has his church members under a satanic spell and it needs to broken. Check the history of New Birth, in two different States, they shut him down, they had the good sense not to welcome him in their State and city.

      I agree, but he shouldn’t have touched the other guy like that. I understand he was trying to explain how the pastor touched them, but you can’t just run up and touch a sexual abuse survivor like that. Especially if that’s how the abuser touched them? You can tell that the guy was uncomfortable.

My older sister, my cousin, and my sister's that was abused by this Uncle her daughter was abused by him also. This man is still around, for my mom's sake, and family nothing has been said. My daughter has never been in a room alone with this man ever. I trust God, and my kids, and my siblings, and a few friends other then that no one.

    Nothing wrong with the guy in blue....he has just completely opened his mind,body and soul to what happened to him and has, studied a lot about abuser/victim relationships, accepted what happened to him and forgiven himself. The reason why people find him odd is his openness to what happened to him, which is something considered a TABOO or weakness (especially for men). On the contrary it seems like he received plenty of good counseling and should be used as a model of recovery for other victims.

      Sorry but with books google anicent artifacts and more books that European Christianity religion is washed up...Faith without works is dead is my answer!!!!
      Plus there was no J in the alphbet in those days so the name Jesus has no power for it is not the charaters name!!!

      Aisha Blount it is a most terrible horrible doctrinal teaching that actually is in the scripture but the church for so long have ignored the biblical precepts on how to preach the Bible and the Lord simply work around the church saving them whom he planned to save.
      He work around the false preachers, the money-grubbing prosperity group, the lukewarm church members who merely came to church to get their blessing, and went home with no changes, no salvation.
      The truth is we must look at what the Bible tells us concerning the gospel, especially how we are to interpret scripture.
      30/40 years ago it would have been unheard of to have a gay or lesbian pastor, today these things are happening right before our eyes.
      we disregard the warnings that these are Abominations before the Lord, the churches have decided, we are wiser than God, we will pick our own pastors, we will pick and choose the doctrines from the Bible which we like, We Will Worship the Lord in this way
      And the Lord has consistently and constantly warn the churches they were to keep his Commandments, or else he would remove the candlestick, Revelations 2 verse 5, the Lord clearly warned, he would come upon them when they are not aware and bring his judgment which is spiritual, shockingly amazingly he would turn the churches over to Satan this had already happened in one of the churches in Revelations when the churches were still babies, One Church Satan had already Soul invaded the church with unsaved numbers he now was ruling the church, and though Christ still with saving, the elect in the churches, Satan has gained a foothold
      today if we are not spiritually asleep we will see utter wickedness , the Rebellion, the pride of the church that has the audacity to change one word of the Bible
      We had better listen God has sent ,warnings he will judge a backslidden church, in fury of his anger , and jealousy
      the fear of the Lord is no longer in the churches,,

    The saddest part of this, outside of the abuse and manipulation, is that you can tell that these young men sincerely loved this man and looked to him as a Father, even after he violated them. When I look at Eddie Long now, I see judgement all over him. But these poor young men probably don't even feel fully vindicated when they look at him, but sorrow and pity for him because they loved him as a Father. I hope before Long dies, he comes clean about the horrific things he did to them and offers them the apology they deserve. God doesn't sleep Eddie. You will not get away with what you did to them.

      Dreambro1, you are minimizing the damage Eddie Long did to his victims. All you have to do is watch the guy in the blue tshirt to see the harm sexual abuse does. That is an angry, betrayed, hurt & damaged man. Eddie Long chose boys he could manipulate & then manipulated & betrayed them. He taught them all they were good for was sex, being used. In other words, he taught them they were worthless as human beings, that people who claim to love them would actually just want to use & betray them instead. He also f***ed them over spiritually, because they'll never again feel like the church is a place of sanctuary, support, guidance. Eddie Long has alienated them from a source of spiritual strength & community that was clearly very important to them. The one guy even said he wanted to be a pastor before he met Long.
      That is a hard thing to go thru as an adult, then imagine having to survive that as a kid. These young men may struggle their whole lives to unlearn those lessons they internalized at the hands of Eddie Long. How are they supposed to have healthy relationships, for example, when they both said what they learned about life is TRUST NO ONE. Guy on the right has that tattooed on his arm, that's how hard he learned that lesson. So it's got nothing to do with Eddie Long being famous, it's about how damaging sexual abuse is & how longterm the harm. Oh, & also what a hypocrite Eddie Long was, condemning gay people while all the while secretly targetting teenagers.

      It's obvious ya'll don't know a lot about molestation. When he said it wasn't sex, sex and molestation are not the same thing. Sex is consensual. Molestation and rape is not. And it could have very well involved mainly touching, oral, etc., but it was not consensual. And very likely meant that it was not penetration; penis to butt, for example. Please look this stuff up online and understand more before judging.

    I am so proud of these two young men for their candor and courage. Yes, each expresses his hurt and honesty in a different way, but each young man is sharing his experience so that others can know the truth.
    The immature comments some have made on this video, especially the unfair remarks some have made about the lad in blue, proves that even when you tell the truth, fools will not appreciate the pearls you cast.

    I believe that it is very difficult for some people who have not been exploited and sexually violated to understand the various stages that an adult goes through after being sexually abused as a child. It takes a lot of resilience to live with sexual abuse, and to overcome the traumatic events. These two young men have shown great bravery by telling their story in front of people who may disbelieve them. I commend them, pray for their continual recovery.

    These young men communicate so well and it's very admirable. I would say to them or anyone who has experienced this or any kind of abuse, you can renew your mind through the Word of God, regardless of how tragic your experience in life is. God can do that. Stay with it. Read the Word daily and let it wash your mind as it claims to do. My heart really goes out to them or anyone who has been violated in this way. It's very sad that Pastor Long wasn't able to confess the truth but I'm guessing he just couldn't do that because of his wife and children. It was far too much for him. But I feel sure he did repent to God. I think if he had confessed publicly he would have been healed physically of what he was struggling with medically. Young men, learn to see yourself as God does. Then you will know this wasn't about you but about someone else. That's the key. It wasn't about you. And don't focus on all you lost because that isn't what God speaks to His children. He said, "I will turn EVERYTHING for YOUR good." We cannot loose in life if we know God's Word and believe His promises. They will work for YOU!

      Without words?
      I have seen many
      Things on Earth ,
      My grand daughter
      Acted out in 1st grade something in
      School with body
      Language and I got
      That right away!
      She didn't open her mouth but her
      Body sitting in that
      Chair. That white
      Non teacher had to leave that school!
      That kiss struck down the structure
      Of the interview.
      May our savior heal
      Both of them.

    They are unfortunately telling the truth. Back in 2007 I was on memorial Drive at the liquor store getting me a bottle of wine and a strange man jumps in my car. I was scared shitless. I hadn't had a chance to lock my door and start my car. He was much larger than me and truth be told I was paralyzed....I couldn't even scream and no one was out side to help me anyway because it was late. He was already drunk and ordered me to take him to the weekly hotel that was just down the road and he was ranting and and raving about some dude that had taken everything from him because he would not give in to his sexual advances. I didn't give a damn I just wanted him out of my car. But he just kept talking. Eventually, I I took note of what he was talking about because he said Eddie Longs name and I had just attended his church once with my aunt at her insisting(That was Before I finally figured out I'm definitely an atheist). Anyway, This guy used to be Eddie Longs Personal Trainer and apparently Eddie Long Had given him cars and all kinds of things and eventually wanted something else in exchange. This dude was not having it. So Eddie Long pulled the rug from up under this dude. Took the car, left him homeless and he ended up living in the weekly hotel on memorial. So he had no intentions of hurting me. Thank Goodness. I was lucky that night. I actually ended up sitting in the parking lot of the hotel talking to the guy cuz he was distraught...yeah Eddie Long was a Dirt Bag.

    Wow! You can tell that they are being very truthful and honest about their horrible experience with Bishop Eddie Long. The way they speak on how it all started, how he lured them in, and brainwashed them. Dude in the blue shirt, is telling it like it is!! He is telling it like it went! Real Talk! This is sad, and so many young men have suffered and have been lured into being exposed to this type of lifestyle in a church setting...,Catholic or otherwise. It is sad overall. I always say that people are human, no matter what position they play in the world and evil lives within many of us, don't care if you are a doctor, lawyer, preacher, teacher, president, officer....You really cannot trust in the church anymore, why, because we are human... F'kd Up....
    Some try to hide it, but the truth comes out in the end. So very sad...

    Peodophiles groom their victims and it sounds like this man was good at grooming.. It is very brave of these young men to come forward and face the guilt and the consequences of their actions. For an out of court settlement to be made to all of them says all that needs to be said.

    He said he was a jerk now because of this. Something he did makes him feel evil. He said he was a jerk...he said look into a persons eyes who was sexually abused...then he says he never had sexual relations with the bishop. What happened then? What did the bishop do to them?

    • @LoveGod2477
      @LoveGod2477 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They were underage. He said it was sexual stuff, but that they didn't have sex. When he said it wasn't sex, sex and molestation are not the same thing. Sex is consensual. Molestation and rape is not. Molestation means it could have involved mainly touching, being touched in a sexual manner, oral, etc., but it was not consensual. And very likely meant that it was not penetration; penis to butt, for example. There's lots of info online. Please look this stuff up for more details.

    Obviously these men came from a broken home. Obviously they were groomed for just the right moment. Someone they trusted and who stood in that father role took advantage of them. I am glad you guys came out with your story. Parents be aware of who you allow to mentor your kids.

      I know what you're saying. Just a few hours ago me and my daughter was riding in my car and I had my cell phone with me. I told my daughter that Eddie long died fast after this story broke about the molestation and she says she thinks he died from aids and I said I think so too. Then a few hours later I'm watching random videos on TH-cam and then this video about Eddie Long pops up. I really believe that Google and the government and the powers that be listen to what people say through their phones and then market things to them that they were talking about. Be careful what you say because people do listen,company's businesses the government all listen to us through our cellphones. I know it sounds crazy.....but it's true. American citizens are not just being tracked for their location by their cell phone but they are being eased dropped on as well through their phones. This is so scary! What ever happen to our constitutional right to privacy as American citizens?

    Also, think about what it feels like to trust someone and find out that they were playing you. Even in everyday situations we don't like that. Now imagine someone is promising to step in the shoes of an absent parent and you find out they were grooming you and you were merely an open opportunity to them. That's the rejection from your absent parent resurfacing all over again. I'm glad the dude in the blue realizes that he will require counseling to move on, because he most certainly will. Even if he didn't penetrate one of these young men's bodies, he did spiritually rape them. God will deal with this situation accordingly. These dudes are hurting. Thank God, I have never experienced this, but I feel them. I really want to cry watching this.
