- Gateway Church founder and senior pastor Robert Morris resigned amid sexual abuse allegations. One accuser claims Morris molested her when she was 12 years old.
The fact that he was allowed to resign rather than being fired reveals a lot about the church. It’s an abomination.
I understand he was already in the process of handing over leadership to his Son before the story precipitated an expedited retirement. You can't fire him- It's his Ministry he is the President, General Oversea and Founder of the Church --and led the congregation as the Most senior Pastor for years.
It shows you don’t really know the history of the incident- of 40 years ago.
My comment was addressed to the other person before your comment. To HeatherRose
@@gloriamiller2473 proves molestation never goes away, eventually the weight of the sin is too great for the victim to bear.
He wasn’t a teenager he was a grown man when he assaulted the 12 year old for years!
Yeah, early 20's..
Exactly.....and why are people reporting this as a "relationship"? She was 12!!!!!!!
@@elmyra.jackson exactly.... SHE WAS 12 YEAR OLD LITTLE GIRL!
so what? that happened in the 1980s .This woman had every opportunity to expose him back then and never did it until many years later . It seems to me she has a personal vendetta which is called Money$$
@@nathanzaber So what? You must be a person who SA little girls!
Report abuse to the police, not the church, university, or place of employment. Catholics did this decades with no action taken by the Roman Catholic Church. It’s a crime, not just a sin.
He did not resign they put him, on sabbatical
James robinson had it
They need to get rid of him, and bar his son from taking over
Agree that the pastor should be held accountable, but don't judge another man just because he is related. He didn't do the crime. God said that vengeance is His so let God be the judge so that we don't also commit a sin as well. The same God also said that he sees no one sin greater than another. Meaning Pastor Morris's sin of abuse would not be seen as worse than our judgment of him or the son of Pastor Morris. Let's allow God to be the son's judge.
His son is innocent.He never knew the young girl.He is not his father's keeper.
@@CarolynWheaton BUT THE HOUSE NEEDS TO BE CLEANED.
THE TAINT OF THE FATHER IS ON THE SON .... IT IS WHAT THE SON WAS TAUGHT.
THE PREACHER LITERALLY SAID IN A SERMON THAT HE TARGETED WOMEN WHO HAD BAD RELATIONSHIPS
WITH THEIR FATHERS. MEN WE NEED YOU TO STAND WITH US ON THIS - WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A 12 YO LITTLE GIRL.
@@kristieshaw4806 The son is innocent.The child abuse was from the Wolf and the twelve year old girl.
@@kristieshaw4806 I can not stand with abuse from the 1980s.Only God will judge .Statues of limitations past 7 years.
It’s good he resigned. Plus the church might not have as many people anymore after hearing this. He still should get charged though.
people that go to that church are the same as him.
@@zAlaskaNobody has ever heard your version of the story. Did you just fabricate it? WOW 😮😮😮
@@zAlaskaYou are Hallucinating. She never had appeared before that Entire Congregation. Otherwise the World would have heard it. Are you Ok? You are just Fabricating stuff!. Are you sure you are Ok?
@@christieprince6991 no I didn't fabricate it
@@zAlaska Well, Someone who worked previously in the Gateway Church as one of the Pastors was just interviewed by a News Station. Even himself had NEVER heard of your version of this story. Apparently ONLY yourself has this version. Besides it practically impossible for her to have spoken to the entire HUGE congregation. Impossible. Don't forget Dr Robert Morris himself is the President, Founder, General overseer and Presiding Most senior Pastor of that Church Congregation. In order Word you don't get up and speak without his Authorization. There is no way this version of your story can be Factual --unless the woman herself is a current member of his congregation and has testified to CONFIRM she was indeed a YOUNG LADY at the time of the event( 35-40 years ago) NOT a young girl.
Monsters hide in the light and work in the dark. This is the only one we've heard about.
He was 26 when he was caught! Amd a married pastor
it's always the ones you most suspect...
surprise, surprise
🐺 Wolf in sheep clothes.🐑
Shame on that church! You let Satan in. Men of God are to be held to a Higher standard than others.
Not the church, but the man! Don't blame the church, but the man whom fell to temptations God warns about many many times.
Higher standard than others 😢
He called the victim a Jezebel! The wife of the “pastor” tried to make her think she was the problem when she was only 12 yrs old???
Why was he allowed
to retire instead of being fired? He committed a heinous crime, he lied repeatedly about it and yet is still not facing any consequences. Shameful and a further affront to his victim. In addition to this incident, a thorough investigation of other possible victims of this man during his tenure need to be thoroughly investigated. Ultimately, he will answer to God.
Very pleased the Church addressed this ugliness, criminal violation of a child and did not cover it up...
Why did she wait so long to come out? In the 80s?
When people are nearing their old age and death.They like to release burdens during their life.😢🦋
Actually, she didn't. Maybe you didn't hear the entire thing about how her family revealed it years ago? And, how she's shared before. But her dad should have gone to the cops, imo.
@@amandabowers9396 Sad, to late now on tv statue of limitations.over 7 years.🙏🫂.
This is confusing to me also. It had been known years ago and after many many years of silence has now been brought up again. What is really going on here?
@@sharoncolumpsi5249 you will have to ask the victim.
Of course the church knew!!! Now that it comes out they DIDNT KNOW! So you don’t ask questions to find out more???
Clean house! His son should not become pastor or 5he church will NEVER overcome the stigma.
Glad twelve year old family didn't go to police.Pastor now has to go to work at fast food job McDonald's.
He should’ve been fired years ago along with all those who knew of this and did nothing!
He was 21. Not a teenager.
My question is how did he get this opportunity. Where were the parents and why did she never tell them when it happened. If we're getting the story 35 yrs later. The whole story needs to be told. Is it all for money. In most families this could never happen.
blame the victim, heard it all before
It was over 30 years ago. Why did she take so long to say something.
She reported to her parents.Nothing happened until 2024.
He could have been with other children.Glad she said something about the Wolf.
It was reported repeatedly since 1987. Nice try tho
It’s always women defending these celebrity-pastor molesters. Why is that?
WAS THIS 35 YEARS AGO ? ITS LIKE A STORMY DANIELS GIMME SUM MONEY CASE !!!
My thoughts exactly.
good christian nationalists
The Elders knew. They covered it up. Gateway is responsible as well.
So sad to hear this awful news
Man this is sad, I loved going here and really
hope they get all leaders checked
REMOVE THE SON.
This is separating the tares from the wheat and the sheep from the goats. Domino effect. Fallout....
A friend attends and still looks up to him. She said yesterday “girl is lying”. Blindly believes he’s a good person because it was so long ago.
Who is blinded??? Think your friend is. HEARTBREAKING 4 SURE💔😢😡😡😡
I feel pretty conflicted myself, but I do believe it happened. I believe her, and when I listen to him, I really do hear a man that has heard from God before, but if this is coming to a head now, that obviously means something was not resolved by one or both parties. Very conflicting since we don't know what is not resolved.
Not really sure why your friend thinks she’s lying when Pastor Morris admitted that this happened.
She is perfectly welcome to still like him and support him without saying something that is untrue herself 👍
and his Son will takeover and continue bringing in the blizzard of money
Don't blame his son for his Wolf father.
@@CarolynWheatonchurch isn’t a family business. No Morris should step into Gateway like they’re the Waltons running Walmart. If that congregation has any Biblical sense, those campuses will be empty.
@@KristiLEvans1 I can not judge.I have to many problems of my own.
@@CarolynWheaton well, whatever you do, don’t pick up Scripture because it TELLS us to judge, righteously.
@@KristiLEvans1 Judging a son who had nothing to do with abuse in 1980s is not in the Bible.
Sue the church. They hid the truth and protected him
I stand with Robert Morris!!! He was honest & already repented on this.... OLD NEWS!!! Sad, BITTER woman trying to take down a GREAT man!!!!!!
She was 12 when it happened
@@michaelmerck7576 this happened 40 yrs ago... NOT last year. It was dealt with back then. This woman is looking for attention not justice.
I call BS
Very sad for the now-wounded-again church! Nothing against his son, but believe he could possibly serve in a lesser role, but not as senior pastor. Also, they should change the name of the church or break it up, forever tarnished as Gateway.
Gateway - A Den of Thief’s !
Please do not blame the son for his father, deceitful life😢
Sorry, churches shouldn’t be family empires. No Morris should be using this flock anymore.
The plan was for his son James to take over. JAMES SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE PULPIT: Sins of the Father!! Hope people LEAVE Gateway!!!!
Do you want to be held accountable for your ancestors' sins? What about their debts? I would only want to be responsible for my own actions. People just say anything.
@@anngee1 You're exactly right...
@@anngee1 I'm guessing you don't know how funerals work...
Sad his son is getting blamed for his father.He was a child when the abuse happened.😢
It's never the drag queens.
Wow! God is exposing them all! I watched his teaching on giving and it helped me become a better giver, so this is sad!
He’s still calling her a “young lady” clearly he is unrepentant and STILL a CHILD molester when he can’t tell the difference even now! He should have resigned long ago and no church should have put him in a place of power again! This is how we know it’s about money rather than God!
The FALSE Church puts false Christians at the very top so the fakeness can trickle down! When any true believer arrives, they quickly make them hate the church and leave. I think people forget that EVERY THING must worship Jesus Christ, even the devils. So just cause they call out “Jesus Jesus or Lord Lord” does NOT mean that they KNOW nor follow Him!

Disturbing...
All Abrahamic faiths are death cults
And he's one of Trump's spiritual advisors, yep makes sense he would be.

my comment:
Matthew 6:15
But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
We are sorry on the behalf of the elders for we know. How much pain that you have been in. Let us have a special love offering for the church for we had to get a lawer for the big law suit that is coming up against the church.
Clemishire is going to get very rich now!
Another pastor!??
2 Corinthians 2:6-10
6 Let it be enough for such a man to have undergone the punishment which the church put on him;
7 So that now, on the other hand, it is right for him to have forgiveness and comfort from you, for fear that his sorrow may be over-great.
8 For which cause my desire is that you will make your love to him clear by your acts.
9 And for the same reason I sent you a letter so that I might be certain of your desire to do my orders in all things.
10 But if you give forgiveness to anyone, I do the same: for if I have given forgiveness for anything, I have done it because of you, in the person of Christ;
I know it’s awful.
Let him who has no sin
cast the first stone
Reference John 8:4-7
BS
The Lord is removing goats!
The lord ain't doing squat
Romans 8:33-34
Who will bring any charge against
those whom God has chosen?
It is God who justifies.
Who then is the one who condemns?
No one.
Christ Jesus who died-
more than that, who was raised to life-is at the right hand of God and is
also interceding for us.
Matt Gaetz will be the new pastor.
Trump constituent knows no bounds
And Biden? And Clinton? Like you actually care für children? You're, a filthy, disgusting hypocrite!
Vote Blue Texas!💙💙💙
the issue with Robert Morris is a 40 year old issue. I know this from a very close friend who has been Pastor Robert's pastor and mentor for many years.
So sad ! God is not please !
But it was from god wasn't it? He knew about it and nothing. Why? Because there is no god. Now, go have a nice day
Please dont blame the church. Let it stay .
Seems about christian.
So much for teaching the word of God.
There is no god. Now, go have a nice day
A friend attends and still looks up to him. She said yesterday “girl is lying”. Blindly believes he’s a good person because it was so long ago.
She's blind, stop putting a man on a pedestal.
He admitted it happened though and got counseling after it happened. How can she call the lady a liar?
Why at twelve years old she would lie.
