Summary

Sorry for the abrupt ending to this video. I was genuinely just saddened by this garbage. I've had some time to think it over and I am going to put this video on more than just X. It seems like a good example of Cover-up Culture and I am hoping that Cindy or Mike Jacobs, or Bob or Erica Hazlett may actually consider these things and realize they have been part of the problem. It would be awesome to see them admit it and make changes! Friends, the problem of Cover-up Culture in charismatic churches is even worse than I thought a month ago. Here's a simple example of how leaders give an imbalanced response to accountability and further promote Cover-up Culture in the name of seeking the well-being of others. It's so incredibly harmful! You can watch the full, original video from Cindy Jacobs right here. My website: https://BibleThinker.org

0:00.0	And I think we're seeing it in the day we live in.
0:02.0	Yeah.
0:03.0	There's a spirit of accusation that's being unleashed.
0:06.0	Yes.
0:07.0	That's actually connected to a spirit of divination.
0:10.0	Wow.
0:11.0	They've used this phrase spirit of accusation as a way of oppressing good and proper accusations and keeping proper justice and proper investigations and proper accountability from happening.
0:21.4	So that term, spirit of accusation, is a useful term for cover-up culture.
0:25.5	This is very damaging to people.
0:27.6	It's very harmful.
0:28.7	It's very enabling to abusers.
0:31.6	This video I'm putting up probably just on X.
0:34.1	We'll see if I put on any other social media platforms.
0:38.6	It's going to be an analysis of what I consider to be a video that contributes heavily to cover up culture. And that's from
0:44.2	Cindy Jacobs, her, her husband, and then the Hazlitz are also there. And I want to say a couple
0:50.8	things before I get into it. Let me just play through their podcast and I'm going to walk through what I see as example after example of problems that promote cover up culture.
1:00.5	Now, I am not deeply aware of the Hazlitz and their ministry or what they do.
1:07.0	I'm not deeply aware of the Jacobs.
1:08.7	I know a couple things, but I need to vet and validate things. And so I'm going to say this. I don't mean this to be a critique on their ministry as a whole. Maybe they do wonderful, wonderful things. Maybe it's something else. I am ignorant of those things. I think that this particular podcast, whether they intend it to be or not, contributes to cover up culture. And I like to demonstrate why.
1:27.6	Because I think a lot of people are participating in what I'm calling cover up culture,
1:31.9	where there's abusers or harm that's happening within the body of Christ from ministry leaders.
1:36.8	And you see my here. Let me just go big for a minute. You can see my cat's head right here.
