Clarence E. McClendon

The consensus in our Christian Men's home is that Bishop McClendon should not appear on the reality show "Pastors of L.A." along with the other Pastors. Most of us in this place have made our share of mistakes which is why we are in a group home for recovering addicts but when Christ changes your life you are a new person with the grace to live for God. This is not a put down of the Pastors who will be appearing on this reality show week after next but how could there be any good from being cast on a secular reality television show? Don't give us that "Touch not the Lord's anointed" as if telling the truth is touching the Lord's anointed. No one is touching (slandering) the Lord's anointed! I don't buy the fact that McClendon is the Lord's anointed!!!! These Pastors who signed up to be cast on this reality television show will do themselves in by looking like greedy, self centered, materialistic mammon (money) chasers. They may in essence do themselves in by showing their pr... Read more

I had to ask the good Lord to forgive me because I watched the advertisement for the show Pastors of L.A. on NightLine last week and one of the other Pastors on this show Detrick Haddon was setting Clarence straight in a verbal feud. I confess wishing Pastor Haddon had socked McClendon in the mouth, especially for how Clarence McClendon divorced his first wife then promptly married a younger woman then their baby followed but then I asked the Lord to forgive me and will have to do what the Bible says and pray for this creep. One good thing may come out of the soon to air Pastors of LA show, we can see what really goes on behind the scenes in these rich preachers lives, but some robots will still make an excuse for them and highly exalt them just because they can act, I mean preach.

The difference in Bishop Clarence McClendon and Preacher Deitrick Haddon is McClendon went on like nothing ever happened after his baby mama drama and divorce, no explanation or apology given as much as I could tell. Pastor Deitrick Haddon seemed very remorseful and gave a public apology then stepped down for a while. Both are starring on Pastor's of Los Angeles (LA) soon to come out. Both behaved according to the Ad for this show like they loathe-dislike one another. What if the ex-wives chime in, the ex-wives of Bishop Noel Jones, Haddon and McClendon? The first wives club can go at it with the current ones and Jones who is single younger girl-friend. This will make for great reality television just like the other controversial reality shows that make for great drama as usual. It is very good to show that wealthy famous Pastors are people too. Can't knock their hustle. Don't hate them because they are rich. Haters get your own hustle and don't hate, appreciate. Black men workin... Read more

I could not believe the segment that aired about this Pastor when Nightline featured the Reality Show called Pastors of LA -Los Angeles, soon to air Oct. 9. 2013. Nightline showed the trailer (scene on the upcoming Reality TV show Pastors of LA (it is about Millionaire Pastors flaunting their Mansions and fancy cars ). This show is going to blow the lid off of what goes on behind the scenes of these rich Pastors lives and I'd venture a guess it will not be a pretty sight if the trailers are any indication of what is to come. Bishop McClendon had an entourage of men catering to him and carrying his Bible and briefcase as if he was God in the flesh. He even got into a big argument with another Preacher over this. It was just a disgrace. I hope Producers of the show will have the good sense to take this out and not air that portion of two preachers verbally bashing each other. I had to side with the other preacher. I cannot stand to watch McClendon for any length of time withou... Read more

What is wrong with Bishop McClendon hiring a team of men to assist him? Stupids are complaining about black men out of work and then bash the man for hiring a team of black men to assist his busy schedule. Shut the heck up and mind your business!!! He is giving these young men jobs Just shut up u godless haters! Hope you choke as you run your mouth on these preachers. So I'm not there yet but if you are so holy then ask Jesus to help me (and them) but Pharisees will just verbally stone people like the rats you are rather than fix your own lives. Bshop McClendon is generous and teaches to share wealth with the poor. One sermon a few years ago Bishop McClendon had everyone come down his Pulpit (altar) that owned Apartments then he appealed to them to help those that needed housing at the Bishop's urging and they did. Homeless members in the church got places to stay that very day! I have never seen that done anywhere in any church! He has prayed for people and it was documented they... Read more

He is a frequent guest speaker on TBN's praise-a-thons. His message is sowing seeds of faith for what you are believing God for. Who follows up to see if people that are sowing faith seeds of money are being granted their request from God? It could be that the Lord had a blessing with your name on it regardless of if you sent TBN money or not. The pathetic thing about the Gospel of Prosperity and having to pay God for his help is when it becames a bribe, an extortion or threat of a curse if you don't pay God. God is faithful and good, to teach otherwise is an assault on God's character. Jesus his grace has paid for our help. I could not believe God would be anything but faithful. If we are unfaithful, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny who he is. 2nd Timothy 2:13

If people want God to make them wealthy I can save them thousands of dollars in seed sowing This will take about 10 seconds flat: Find out your God given talent and abilities and find a way to market it. I have to pass on sowing my seed of faith tp Prosperity preachers teaching a Prosperity Gospel otherwise known as send in cash, God will bless you, so I can get richer. No thank U

"Let him who has no sin be the first to cast a stone." That is what Jesus said to the people who came to him accusing and threatening to stone to death a certain woman who they had caught red handed in the act of adultery. No one was able to rise to that challenge. They all turned away and left the woman in Jesus' presence. Christ said to her, "Go and sin no more." The bible in the book of Romans reminds us "For ALL HAVE SINNED and fallen short of the glory of God." The magnitude of Bishop Clarence McClendon's sins, my sins and even your sins is the same in God's eyes. The punishment for this sinfulness is equal - death for all unrepentant sinners. The remission for this sinfulness is the same for Bishop Clarence McClendon, myself and you too according to John 3:16(b), "...so that WHOSOEVER believes in Him (Christ) will not perish but have eternal life." John 3:17 states that "for Christ did not come into the world to condemn the world but so that the world through Him might be sav... Read more

..more than one wife AT A TIME is how I read it. But there's only One Judge and we ALL fall short.. also any money u give to ANY ministry must only be seen one way and that's directly to God. The church is NOT perfect.. that includes YOURS!

A cruel joke & plight on the Body of Christ whom God will expose (to gullible sheep) as a fraud at his appointed time. Bishop McClendon looks like a young Rev. Ike and some think he is a carbon copy. He thinks he has deeper bible revelation, more so than the hand-picked Disciples in Jesus day. He twists parts of the Gospel into another Gospel and it mostly ends in sowing a (money) seed and guess who you are supposed to sow it to??? People need to start questioning Preachers and if that had been done who would not had a Jim Jones and Ghana in Central America.

Last week MCClendon was featured on a Benny Hinn program promoting Old Covenant Tithing as still a law in which New Covenant, New Testament Believers in the Body of Christ must obey for "THE BLESSING" to come upon them. McClendon erroneously declared that Tithing was necessary to bring "THE BLESSING" from God. Someone should tell him that the finished work of Christ on the Cross has replaced Tithing / Old Covenant law and Old Testament Observances. Our favor (Unmerited) is now by faith the finished work of Christ! If you have ever gotten a bill for a debt that said "It is finished" translated as "Paid in Full," this was an indication that there was no remaining balance left. When Jesus said "It is Finished (In Modern Bible translations: It is Accomplished") that means Jesus fulfilled the law for those in the body of Christ. Many Prosperity teachers will never let go of this teaching because it has made them Multi-Millionaires. Promises of being able to pay money by ti... Read more

What happened to his first wife? Way back from the start he appeared with his first wife on TBN then as his fame & Mega Church grew he got a new wife and kid shortly afterwards. Is he accountable to anyone? He just kept right on preaching without batting a eye. When you are in the public spot-light as a Bishop and preaching the Gospel aren't they aware that people notice things like this? All of that supposed talent when it comes to whipping up the crowds but what about character? Does it count these days in Christian Church Leadership? I knew people in California that were members of his Church and said there was no explanation and you better not even think about asking what happened to the first wife. Her picture was removed from the Church and then another younger wife appeared on the scene and that was that! You can do just about anything in the Church world short of no remorse for murder and still guest on TBN. Does anyone in Christian circles think twice or question anythi... Read more

Let's establish something here moving forward about Clarence McClendon. He is a wolf in sheeps clothing and he serves himself and mammon. If that is not evident to all then you are being deceived and you need to read your Bible for yourself to see that we are to FLEE from these people who claim that Godliness is a means to financial gain. Paul said that in your Bible. Now what part don't we understand? FLEE? That means run from this man and others who are in his circle of deception. I will go as far as to set his personal sin and divorce aside even though there is Bibilical grounds to say he is not a Bishop. On a personal level we all sin. I am talking from a doctrine stand point. This man exploits his own race of people by feeding them false hopes that if they give HIM money (that is the reality) then they are going to get something HUGE from God. Bishop Jakes, Leroy Thompson, and Creflo Dollar all do the same. They exploit widows that are on fixed incomes for gain. Michael Pitts o... Read more

McClendon preaches another gospel.

The Lord shall use Bishop Mcclendon in a mighty way like the Word sent about X-Blessing, very much like me. Please see: PRESS RELEASE Fox's Hannity asked at DNC "Could Obama be a chosen one?"

He used to manage the Pirates after a pedestrian playing career under the name Lloyd.

I was saved at the Church of the Harvest in 97. The Lord led me there in a really dark time in my life. I sometimes went to the morning, night, and Wensday service after I got saved. I went for over two years to at least one service a week there. I don't really go to any church anymore because I'm kind of lazy and selfish. Although my faith was strong at one time, my faith is not what it use to be. Hopefully that will change in the future. But as far as Bishop McClendon is concerned, nobody should judge him. We all have fallin short of the glory of GOD. I know I do on a daily basis. It's kind of hard for people and myself included to put there trust in Bishop McClendon because of his past and the amount of money he recieves. But if you don't want to go to his church, you can go to a different one. Every pastor out there does wrong here and there. Don't come on here and say stupid comments about the man. Your asking to be judge by doing that. It's cool to have an opinion, but remember h... Read more

This guy is a clown .Could his suits get any brighter . Clarence Mcclendon has a son named Bryce who is a deabeat dad. So sad !

I can not believe how so much time is spent by christians waiting for other christians to stumble and fall.  What happened to "the spiritual restoring the ones that weak".  I truly believe that some people keep sin scores on others so that they won't feel guilty about the sin that is in their own lives.  What we must remember is that sin has no weighing scale; all sin is wrong.  Whether you are a gossip or greedy for money or a drug addict.  It is the responsibility of the believer to live righteously no matter who is doing wrong.  It does not matter if you are a preacher, bishop, usher, or bench member.  You are required to live right before God and let your light shine before people.  There are no short cuts because you don't stand up in the pulpit.  What about simply being a light in the dark world.  Every christian is supposed to do that.  There is no elite heaven and peasant heaven for those who are not preachers and bishops, etc...  Ushers should show Christ just like bishops  We...

I am going to tell you ONE TIME ONLY. Give donations by check and report them on your income tax. DO NOT GIVE CASH! DUHHHHHH He should get a rating of 5 because it's not his fault you don't report your donations.

All I can say is Whow to those who pass judgement. He/She without sin cast the first stone. Things we Christians do in the name of Religion. Nobody knows his story, but him and God. I pray for deliverance in anybody who is passing judgement on this man of God. We ALL are called and we ALL have sin in our lives. Please talk to God about Him, don't condemn him on the Web, what if someone put your stuff out there, how would you feel. Ecclesiastes 7:20 - There IS NOT a righteous man on earth who does what is right and NEVER sins. Be Blessed!!!!

Bishop McClendon preached here in our area recently. He preached a good word. The gifts come without repentence. If your life were put under God's microscope what would He find? Hmm, lying, hate, stealing, cheating, fornication, bitterness, gossiper, adultery, laziness, slothful, judgemental disposition, coveting, malicious slander; Would He see you drinking, smoking, partying at the club? Are you "perfect?" I wonder what would God find under His microscope on you??? I am certain, like Bishop McClendon, He'd find a SINNER saved by His grace!

What I wrote below is not a rating but my personal feelings on the broad topic of television evangelism.  I wrote them under the Clarence E. McClendon subtopic because it was the only one I had really read at the time.  I happened across it and this site while running searches trying to find the Full Harvest International Church Website, which was offline for a while.  I found that The Lord indeed blessed and gave me clear directions through messages I saw on the telecast.I gave a four rating for the numerical reference only.  I'm for inspired and prolific preaching.  I'm far from a prude and I try to heed Davids example in not dealing in matters higher than myself.  I believe anyone who heeds a divine calling and opens their lives and personal decision making to scrutiny from any and everyone, should be commended.  Much of the good they do is so often overshadowed by reckless judgments and innuendos.Aside -                                                                               ...

I like Mcclendon :)

GUYS GUYS GUYS! WHAT DOES IS TAKE TO SEE THAT THIS MCCLENDON IS NOT OF GOD. MY GOODNESS! ALL WHO SUPPORTS HIM KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING AND ARE DOING THEM WITH HIM. A PASTOR WHO INVITES THIS GUY IN HIS CHURCH KNOWS VERY WELL THAT THEY ARE GONNA SHARE THE MONEY. IF YOU CAN'T SEE THE WOLF IN A SHEEPS SKIN MAYBE YOU SHOULD SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR MONEY GOING TO ONE MAN ONLY. AND THIS WILL ONLY BE BECAUSE YOU DON'T SPEND TIME WITH GOD BUT WAITING FOR THIS EVILSPIRIT TO LIE TO YOU WITH HIS "PREACHING" THIS GUY MAKES ALMOST$ 500 000 A NIGHT ON A CRUSADE! MY GOD! I'M WAITING FOR HIS DOWNFALL, IT WILL HAPPEN BECAUSE GOD CANNOT BE MOCKED

How rich is this guy ? he takes up an offering for himself . Does he make 5 or 10 million annually ? Are preachers supposed to be that rich ?

I rate this a 4 star. Bishop McClendon is an anointed Man Of God that has been sent to preach to this lost and dying world. In 2002 I went through a very trying time; but God sent this man of God via television, to preach my deliverance,my growth, my steadfast, my faith in the Lord. I received teaching from his ministry that I did not receive in 25 years in my local church. God bless you Bishop McClendon, and keep doing what God has called you to do, and that is to preach the Word of God. God has already forgiven you, just like He has forgiven me.

Clarence E. Mcclendon is a false teacher. That's blame to see. Jesus said that a tree is known by the fruit it bears. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Does a spring pour forth from the same opening both fresh and salt water? The answer is no, according to the Bible. Plus, ministers are to be held up to a very high standard according to Paul's letters to Timothy...as some people here already pointed out. Since Mr. Mcclendon has failed to live up to such standards, despite his feelings, he should not be placed in a position of leadership in the local body of Christ. That's just the way it is. It's usually those who like this guy who try to make all kinds of excuses for him to still be able to teach what their itching ears want to hear, but for those of us who prefer to stay true to what Scripture states...we cannot ignore the obvious. I rate this guy w/ a single star. He shouldn't have any, actually.

i commend him on being true to his heart....for him to stay married and pretend he was happily married and his marriage was Godly bliss would have been the true hypocrisy and lie ...i feel so many preachers or even church going christians do just that....all because they dont want to face peoples scrutiny....he did what i m sure he felt was right and even if it wasnt ....i believe God will and can still bless him and annoint him...we are only human...look at david and bathsheba ....david took matters into his own hands because of his feelings for her and while he was rebuked and suffered the loss of their first child ...God honored his choice and blessed them...with solomon and on and on his offspring from which Jesus came...God honored rachel and jacobs love and the bible is full of how God honored human love and emotions....even though tilted from the fall i still believe natural desire and love for someone is how He created us....in His image....i dont feel any judgement toward cl...

I think McClendon is a mind of God none of you are his Judge so Get off his back

1Tim 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach.

I wonder if Jesus had a Ph.D....oh...my bad...maybe it didn't matter back then.  So much for the 21st century church.  Just like African Americans, we take pride in killing each other.....

I can not believe the garbage that is written here. How dare you say that Bishop McClendon is a false teacher? Who has given you the authority to make such a statement?

McClendon, another friend of Earl Paulk's.  McClendon got involved in Paulk's sexcapades over at the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit too, and Paulk performed the wedding ceremony that McClendon had 5 days after his divorve to wife #1 was final. As you're reading this, McClendon is likely receiving his subpoena to appear at Paulk's sexual molestation trial in Atlanta. Can't wait to see how he tries to explain away his involvement under oath.

LOL! We have a person telling people not to judge and then telling everyone to "shut the hell up!" Man, that is TOO funny!!!!   Sorry, "bishop" mcclendon is a false teacher. Also, I don't think that I'd mind a camera following me 24 hours a day, just as long as people don't mind seeing me take a dump on occasion...maybe pick my nose a few times, etc.  You actually may have something there..think of the  TV ratings THAT would generate!

thank God that man has no heaven or hell to put me in for if it were so,,,i would've been sent to hell a long time ago..we all have sinned and fall short...remember that...can't we just go on and pray for the men and women of God and know that mcclendon is not God!!!nor is he Jesus...the ones who we are suppose to be serving...sometimes bible thumpers go to the extreme and place the men and women of God on this pedestal...and begin to serve the server...please remember they are only messengers of God..serve Him(God) and he will lead you...the pastor cant get you in or out of heaven...only you can....

BISHOP IS HUMAN..BISHOP BELONGS TO GOD..."WATCH YOUR MOUTH"..SATAN I SERVE U NOTICE ABOUT SPEAKING ILL ON THE MAN OF GOD..I CURSE THE WORDS OFF YOUR LIPS AND DECREE THEM VOID RIGHT NOW IN THE NAME OF JESUS...BISHOP MCCLENDON IF HE HAD 1 MILLIONS WOMEN...WHAT HAVE U DONE?...IN YOUR PAST THAT GOD HAD TO DELIVER U OUT OF?....I'M MOTHERLESS....FATHERLESS..AND HAD A CURSE OF POVERTY ON MY LIFE...I WAS BEING BEATEN IN A RELATIONSHIP...TREATED BADLY ALL MY LIFE AND I KNOW THAT GOD HEALED ME THROUGH HIS MINISTRIES.. I TITHED AND GOD IS HONORING ME RIGHT NOW... I AM SOARING LIKE A BIRD RIGHT NOW.....AND I DOUBT IF THAT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH ME BEING IN A PIGEON MINISTRY.....I ROLL WITH THE EAGLES AND I WANT TO ENCOURAGE ALL OF THE "RELIGOUS MONGERZ".....TO BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO BLOCK YOUR BLESSINGS WORRIED ABOUT MESS!!!..."GOSSIP" IS THE SPIRIT OF "DEATH"....AND IF YOUR PASTOR WAS TALKING MORE ABOUT THAT......INSTEAD OF OTHER PEOPLES MINISTRIES U MIGHT BE HEALED FROM THAT 'CURSE " LIKE ME....

I thought a bishop was supposed to be husband of but one wife. Clarence is on which one..number two or three?

I have been at McClendon's for years and experienced both good and bad. But the fact remains that we are all human beings trying to get it right before God and I understand that men of God should operate at a higher level of integrity but that does not always happen. Our responsibility as believer's is to uplift and intercede for the men and women of God that are preaching the Gospel. If you are not in agreement with the vision of a particular house then it is more helpful for you to leave and pray for God's direction than sit there and run the man of God down. The bottom line for us all is that it is because of God's mercy's that WE ARE ALL NOT CONSUMED AND HE THAT IS WITHOUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE. Many of you can't deal with Bishop McClendon's fall from Grace, so to speak, because you don't have the courage to face your sins. How can you take the mote out of your brother's eye and there is a plank in yours!

I have to say that my spirit was moved, when I turned on TBN and saw Bishop Mcclendon preaching. He moved my spirit like none other. The brother displays the word like not alot of other pastors. I rate Bishop Mcclendon a 10!

i was a member of his church for five years.i sat on the front row and watch everything that went on there and was a worker in the church a altar worker and worked in the book store. (years) ago he was a great man of god but i saw pride slowly coming in. his wife really loved him i could see it in her eyes but not in his its all about (money) now.i have given thousands of dollars to his ministry and loved him and his first wife very much he said that god had shown him who he was supposed to marry he told his first wife this and she said how can god show you another woman when you already have a wife? e-mail me so i can send you a copy of the charisma magazine. where is this in the bible? if you can fine this in the bible i will send you 1000 dollars free earl paulk said that mcclendon is above mans laws and gods laws too i got the charisma magazine with this in it too show me this in the bible i am waiting with my 1000 check too. you better believe what you read in a christian magazi...

this is a true man of god he preaches the word of god. i love him no matter what others may think, just like jesus he also was persecuted and called all sorts of names. but my bible tells me blessed are ye when men shall revile you and persecute you and say all manner of evil against you falsely for my sake. matt 5.11 bishop you deserve 5 stars god bless

An adulterer according to the Bible and a false prophet. Don't listen to him and definitely don't give him any money. Also, regarding the threat others have made of "touch not god's annointing"; he is not God's annointed and witchcraft doesn't work on me.

Bishop McClendon puts great effort in delivering his messages

No one has the right to claim to be saved and judge someone. Sorry that is not written in the Bible. People are experiencing lack in their life because of what is coming out of their mouth. There are people dead right now because of what they said about Bishop McClendon. I can vouch for that. You either speak life or death and people do not seem get this. Life and death are in the power of the tongue according to the Word of God. Yes I am taking comments personally because Bishop is my spiritual father and people are telling lies. They are still focusing on drama the supposedly happen 5+ years ago. He and his ex-wife both made mistakes while being married to one another. If God has forgiven him, why can't man? Because most so-called Christians are turned on by drama. No one will know the true story so voicing your opinion based on what you heard or read in a so-called Christian magazine is not wise. Like I previously stated, we as Christians are to cover one another in praye... Read more

Simply Awsome- He speaks the Lord's Truth which is extremely rear!

I just wanted to let the people who read this page know that Clarence McClendon is a wonderful person. I knew the Bishop as a personal friend. When I met him, I was a lost soul. He took the time to reach out to me & show a way out of the mess I had ended up in. He was neither arrogant or selfish in his friendly guidance. In fact I had no clue he was even a Bishop. He had no motives for money or recognition. He acted in an extremely humble manner. He never judged me, never looked down on me, AND HE HAD NO AUDIENCE- His acts of kindness were recognized by no one other than God. He is one of the few people that has made a major difference in my life. I am sure you all have had at least one person in your life this memorable. I know the Bishop has helped & will continue to help many others. It saddens me to see so many casting stones at him. Sure he went through some personal storms...Haven't we all? But his personal storms do not make him a bad person, they make him human. L... Read more
