    Jim Bakker Ordered To Pay 156K For Selling Fake Covid19 Cure

    Controversial televangelist Jim Bakker will pay $156,000 in restitution as part of a settlement agreement with the state of Missouri for promoting a fake cure for coronaviruses on his program.

    In February 2020, "The Jim Bakker Show" featured a product known as Silver Solution in which a guest said it was able to cure certain coronaviruses.

    On Tuesday, the state of Missouri and Bakker entered into a consent judgment in which Bakker's ministry would pay $156,000 in restitution for selling the product on his show.

    According to the order, signed by Associate Circuit Judge Alan Blankenship, Bakker has agreed to stop selling the product but also denied any wrongdoing in the matter.

    Nevertheless, both parties agreed to the settlement "in order to avoid substantial expense and the uncertainties of further litigation."

    Restitution checks for those who purchased the Silver Solution from Bakker are scheduled to be mailed out within 30 days of the execution of the consent judgment.

    Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt said in a statement Wednesday that he was "pleased" with the settlement and the "strong safeguards to prevent the marketing of 'silver solution' as a cure or treatment for COVID and other medical issues."

    Thing is, it is a cure. I've used it for years. Feel a cold or flu coming on? We bombard it with silver solution. He just wrecked it for himself by calling it a cure. The authorities only support big Pharma which treats, rather than cures. No money in cures.

    Yep, the stuff works. Mixing commerce with ministry is an issue but I believe that the main legal beef had to do with this.

    "The 2019 novel coronavirus poses serious consequences to public health, and consumers are concerned as to how they can best protect themselves and their families," wrote James, as reported by The Hill in March.

    "Your show's segment may mislead consumers as to the effectiveness of the Silver Solution product in protecting against the current outbreak."
    The thing is, they have misled us from day one by holding to a "no treatment for CCP Virus" lie.

    My daughter and grandson were both recently positive for CCP Virus, my grandsons pediatrician wouldn't even see him, forget about treatment. I find that to be borderline criminal. Ditto for daughter, no treatment offered, just the standard protocol "if you can't breathe go to the hospital so they can kill you with a ventilator".

    They are both fine. Praise God!

    You're exactly right Sharie! His attorneys should've warned him before he even started to promote the product; and Jim knows better than to use the word "cure". He's been in ministry too long to have made such a stupid mistake. smh
    When your praise match your prayers, the answer will come.

    Jim is a convicted felon - thus he cannot apply for a 501c classification for his ministry. Selling all of those items on his program is one of the main ways the ministry makes money.

    He was on our network until this popped up. I ended up having to watch every show with a fine tooth comb after this. As far as the actual program - they didn't say it was a definite cure but they absolutely implied it and would not make a counter statement to the fact. I'm really surprised the Feds didn't go after them.

    I believe the FDA is the only agency allowed to call it a cure. So, it very well might be a cure, but you have to carry the statement, "not intended to diagnose, treat or cure..." if you don't have the official okie dokie from the FDA.
