Chicago-based internet preacher and U.S. Army veteran Marcus Rogers released a critique video on movie-mogul Tyler Perry after Perry was caught on video raining ‘dollars’ on a stripper at an Usher concert in Atlanta, Georgia, on Sunday. According to The Christian Post, the video showed Perry throwing Usher bucks, which are fake dollars with Usher’s face on it, at the stripper, who appears to laugh incredulously as soon as she recognizes him. Perry is also recognized by Usher himself, who attempts to lure him back to the stripper with a stash of Usher bucks.
“This behavior isn’t biblical, and this behavior reminds me of what the Bible warns about. If you ever want to know why I do what I do, the Bible says the watchmen, when you see something and you standing on that wall and you don’t say something, the blood is going to be on your hands. The Bible says to cry loud and spare not,” said Rogers in a critique of the videos on YouTube.
“We make excuses in the black community all the time because we idolize culture. We put culture over Kingdom. If someone is black and successful and they say that they’re Christian, you know we can’t speak bad about anything that’s going on, but this is what’s going on,” he continued.
“Tyler Perry has zero oil, and, unfortunately, when I saw that other clip of him throwing money at the stripper, it made me think about this clip,” he added, highlighting a recording of Perry anointing T.D. Jakes in 2013 at the pastor’s Potter’s House megachurch in Dallas, Texas.
“That’s a lot of people in that church. It’s scary. Everybody in there cutting up like the Spirit is just flowing through Tyler Perry. But you know, I always knew even back then, Tyler Perry didn’t have no oil like that. You could tell from some of the content that he was putting out. And this makes the church look bad.”
Rogers also criticized Grammy-winning gospel artist Kirk Franklin, who delivered a performance at Usher’s concert.
“Kirk, I feel like this is what Kirk Franklin really wants to do and wants to be, and that’s why he’s with all the dancing,” Marcus argued. “[The] Bible says don’t love the world. Come out from among the world and be separate.”
