Bishop TD Jakes declares he is ‘not afraid to die’

Following a recent health emergency, Bishop TD Jakes has stated that he is not afraid to die.

The founder of the Potter’s House in Dallas, Texas was full of gratitude to God for sparing his life, clarifying that his condition was not a stroke but could have been fatal without divine intervention.

The Bishop TD Jakes thanked his medical team and those who prayed for him after he fell ill during Sunday services at his church.

Addressing the public for the first time in a shared Wednesday evening, Jakes said, “I’m so grateful. So grateful to y’all,” Jakes said emotionally, gesturing toward medical staff in blue scrubs.

“I’m not afraid to die. I don’t want to hurt my kids and the people who love me and my church that needs me. The world who called me and the God who sent me. Sometimes you just got to be grateful.”

It was gathered that the 67-year-old pastor had been delivering a sermon when he suddenly sat down and began trembling.

Church members quickly gathered around him, and the live broadcast of the service was abruptly stopped.
