Most people have problems with him because he is Pentecostal.

An article I read had problems with him because he said the concept of three separate entities in the Trinity should be 3 separate revelations of one God. Jakes doesn't think there is an actual person sitting at the right hand (side) of the Father.

I think it's a very awkward walk across a tightrope when trying to use literal translation on things in the Bible and get too hung up on them. It's anthropomorphism and it's convenient for making a point (which is what the Bible tries to do).

Does Jakes not believe in Jesus? I am glad that Dubya is professing his faith. I have had enough muslim indoctrination and I can see where the Koran can be twisted very easily. Just convince a brainwashed muslim child that killing and suicide are good deeds. I know one muslim and that lives near me and I don't see her very often. She showed me a Koran in English. She and her son are all that I care to know. It may sound closed minded but globally, they want everyone who isn't them to be dead.
