Allegations rejected as Bishop Eddie Long photos come up

There are some Bishop Eddie Long photos which are coming to light. The photos in question were all allegedly received by the people suing Bishop Eddie Long. Long is the head pastor of the 24,000 fellow member New Birth Missionary Baptist Church. Long was a mentor to various individuals over the years, and a number of boys from those programs are who are part of the Bishop Long scandal. Bishop Long allegedly adjoined in inappropriate acts with these young men, of a sexual nature. This is odd, as Bishop Long is fervently anti-homosexual.

Bishop Long images come to light

A suit was filed over a week ago against Eddie Long. The photos soon came out, as outlined by Columbia Broadcasting System. The photos were allegedly sent by Long to the men who are suing him. Some of these photos show Long in tight fitting workout clothes. That said, none are lascivious. The lawyer for the plaintiffs asserts none are blatantly sex. Eddie Long, senior pastor of the brand new Birth Missionary Baptist Church, did send the plaintiffs e-mails, though the content remains unknown.

4th man adds to suit

A fourth person has joined the lawsuit against Bishop Long, as outlined by CNN. All allege the exact same thing. Long is supposed to have used his position of power to coerce the men into sex. Long’s church also runs a mentoring program, and all four men were under his mentorship. Long maintains his innocence. He has fervently denied all allegations. Long has been labeled a bigot within the past for his stance o n homosexuality. He called for a national ban on same-sex marriages in the past.

Truth will come out in front of a court

The case is going to go before a judge. Bishop Long ministers to a mega-church. The membership totals over 24,000. He packs within the crowds. His sermons draw over 10,000 every Sunday.
