This is some masterful pimp game here. He turned himself into the victim.

A pastor wrote a book about being a better man. Weeks later, he was caught naked, in an affair.

Pastor O. Jermaine Simmons stood before his congregation and asked for forgiveness. But he also tried to reconcile the man his parishioners had known for a decade with the adulterer being laughed at in church circles and the media.

Since he took over as pastor in 2005, more than 4,000 people had joined Jacob Chapel Baptist Church in Tallahassee. It had added 27 ministries, focusing efforts on the homeless in Florida’s capital and ministering to youth.

And Simmons had just released his first book, “I Need a Man,” a Bible-based paperback on modeling “Godly manhood.”

Then Simmons’s affair with another man’s wife went public in dramatic fashion: On Jan. 17, the 36-year-old pastor — a married father — found himself cowering naked behind a fence, hiding from a gun-toting husband who’d stumbled on the affair, police say.

“What I want from God, I have already received — that’s his forgiveness, ” Simmons told his congregation five days later.

The Jan. 22 message was recorded by someone in the audience and uploaded to YouTube, where it has been viewed nearly 50,000 times.

“What I am asking of our members is your prayers and your forgiveness,” he said.

According to a Tallahassee police report, officers were called to the Sienna Square Apartments by a woman who said her husband had a gun — and was looking for her lover.

The naked man behind the fence was Simmons, who was also her pastor, she told officers.

She wasn’t sure where her husband was.

But she knew he was angry — and armed.

The pastor had come over to the woman’s house to “talk over starting a business, patents and trademarks, and providing less fortunate kids with clothes and shoes,” she told officers, according to the police report.

Instead, they ended up in her daughter’s bed, having sex, police said.

That same day, the woman’s 6-year-old son had gotten sick at school. Administrators couldn’t reach the woman, so they called her husband instead.

He picked up the sick child and headed home — where he found his wife cheating with their pastor, police said.

“The man yelled ‘I’m gonna kill him’ and went to their room and got a small handgun,” according to the police report.

Simmons ran out of the apartment naked and hopped a privacy fence behind some shrubs, the report said.

But his car keys and his clothes were inside the house with the woman and her enraged husband.

She tried to calm her husband down.

“She stepped in front of (her husband) and pled with him not to shoot Simmons in front of their son,” the report said. But the man “pushed past (his wife) and went out the door in search of Simmons.”

Unable to find the pastor, the husband came into the apartment and grabbed the discarded clothes. He told his wife he planned to drop them off at the church or expose the religious leader on Facebook, the report said.

Maybe, he said, he would show up at church Sunday to make a statement.

But authorities say he cooled down.

A parishioner gave the pastor a ride from the apartment, and police later helped him retrieve his clothes and car, the report said.

Police elected not to charge the husband, saying he never pointed a gun at the pastor or his wife, who said she never felt threatened he would shoot them.

But by that Sunday, the story had spread. And Simmons found himself making a statement of his own.

“I’m hurting because I’ve hurt you,” Simmons told the church on the video recorded by a parishioner. “I can’t speak to people on the outside. I am not Tallahassee’s pastor. I am not Florida’s pastor. I am Jacob Chapel’s pastor.

“It hurts me that you have to defend my actions. You cannot defend sin.”

The congregation responded with loud applause.

Simmons could not be reached for comment this week, and he’s been silent on Twitter since the day he got caught having an affair.

dude played a part in potentially ruining someone's marriage.
likely put a stain on some young Black kids childhood, which will likely leave a lasting impression on him regarding his mom AND all Black women in general...

Could have potentially led to another Black man in the prison system....

Likely turned folks away from even being down with church at all anymore....

I dunno...I just don't think it should be as simple as you've put it.

"Get ready....for your blessing....."

he didn't go on administrative leave
he stood his foolish self right up in front of the congregation and addressed them
im confused.

-----------------------------------
we aint the two and i aint the one- lyte

He should move forward with a different congregation.
Ionno....something about homewrecking preachers rubs me the wrong way.


"Get ready....for your blessing....."

a man is a man
and a woman is a woman
no one is Christ
it is pitiful
but it isnt like it doesnt happen every day
i dunno

it's up to that congregation and its trustees to decide what they want to do with him
maybe it will strengthen his testimony

All of it just reeks to me. And it's always the same ol "no man is christ" response.... but dude IS voluntaringly putting himself on a higher moral ground than the folks he's ministering to.... and he should be held to a higher level of accountability and punishment. They should at least reduce his salary or something..... but you are right, it's up to them... I know if EYE was deacon out that joint, dude would be on the bench indefinitely.....



"Get ready....for your blessing....."

obviously

my boy is a pastor. The stories he tells me are crazy. Women lust after these pastors so it's easy money to ask for forgiveness. I bet half the women in that church forgive him because they want their blessings.

I mean.. if you can talk a person into donating money they don't have then it's pretty easy to get them to do anything else you ask...

in the name of jesus of course.

what cheaters have to stand in front of a large group of pple are talk abt what they did?
as for the punishment, that's up to the the church in the end
and im sure he's suffering at home and in his family and with his peers/rivals/etc

-----------------------------------

and power to bag another man's wife.... shit stinks no matter how you slice it.
So many levels to how fcked up his actions are. It's just insane that he has the audacity to be back up center stage talkin big game like he's doing. Watching that video did not present the picture of a repentant man to me....it was a man with the knowledge of just how much more shit he can get away with in the space that he's ruling (ie, his church)


"Get ready....for your blessing....."

the wife is more trife to me though
and she sure didnt have to stand up in front of a large group of pple talking abt how dumb she is
but i really doubt he's going to get off scott free

put people they respect on pedestals. The onus is on the folks up hight to make sure they don't take advantage of people's trust and admiration.

Who knows WHAT was going on in the woman's marriage. Not an excuse for HER...but as her moral guide, he should be one of the few folks to be aware of her home situation and whether they were a danger to each other or not.

By 36 years old, if you really about that faithfultoyourwife life, you recognize quickly when someone of the opposite (hell or same I guess) sex is gonna be a problem for you to be closer than an arms length away from. And you should move accordingly.
