Now, one of our main journalists mentioned in a previous article that it is nothing new, regarding the black church covering up the death of ministers who died of horrible causes, such as AIDS or drug overdose. Allegedly, it has happened in various situations. One of the most popular cases was in the prior death results involving the King of Gospel, Rev. James Cleveland. Death results revealed the late Rev. James Cleveland either died of a heart attack or respiratory failure, allegedly. When the late Rev. Cleveland’s adopted son came out to the press and confessed a sexual affair since a young teen Christopher Harris Cleveland also mentioned James Cleveland died of AIDS, according to article, ‘And The Choir Sings On’. His foster son also admitted he himself was HIV positive at the time of his confession to the media. Therefore, AToast2Wealth.com was very accurate when they mentioned the black church has been covering up for many years now, since the birth of AIDS. However, one of the main reasons why the double lifestyles of preachers are covered up in most, is simply because of their mothers. In the black culture, black men are overprotected by their mothers many times and in this case of Zachery Tims, it reveals that his mother Madeline is covering up his death results, because that is the nature of many black mothers.
Madeline’s behavior is an abnormality among black mothers who have always babied their sons, allegedly. Madeline going to the Supreme Court to stop the toxicology reports from leaking out to the press is an ancient dysfunctional behavior and it reveals the possibility of why Zachery Tims could never grow up and do right, allegedly. It seems like she overprotected him and this is why he possibly was allegedly addicted to drugs and could not keep his marriage together. Her abnormal behavior also allegedly reveals this is possibly the reason why Zachery Tims could do no wrong and possibly thought it was okay to do drugs when no one was looking. Going back to the childhood of many black men when they were boys, they are placed upon a pedestal by their mothers, no matter who informs them of their wrongdoings. As young boys, grown black men like the late Dr. Zachery Tims, grow up always being defended by their mothers, no matter who they hurt or even if they seem to be in a journey to hurt themselves. Many times black mothers spoil their sons, and place their daughters lower than their sons as though their daughters are cursed seeds and could never amount up to the love they have for their sons. This ill behavior has occurred for many years now and this is what causes of a lot of division within black families. It has been kept quiet long enough, but it must be discussed now, because Madeline going to the Supreme Court…Read full article here.

Have you forgotten that the disappearance of black father’s and a father’s image in the home is also the root cause/effect of many of these behaviors? Can’t hang it all on the mamas. Was there a father in his life?
Thanks for visiting AT2W. First, we did some corrections on your post, your words should always be revealed lowercase on this blog.
So now to answer your question, no we have not forgotten about the absence of black father’s and a father’s image. We do realize that Zachery’s father left when he was very young. However, the cycle should
now be stopped in the 21st century. The black family can no longer be controlled by the absence of father’s in the homes neither should men make the excuse of not having a father. In many cases, mothers have been taking full responsibility and this is why we agree with you, mother’s should not always overprotect their sons, even when there is no father. God bless and keep reading AT2W.
Your assessment of the Zachery Tims case in his mother’s attempt to “protect” him is 100% CORRECT!!!
I can say this because I know/knew them BOTH personally!!!
I think we have our answer regarding the test results!!! If they were “negative” there would be NO reason not to release them!!!
While you guys are intent on unveiling things that may, or may not be true, I question your faith, because the Word of God tells us that love covers over a multitude of sins, and whether this man died of a drug overdose or not, his mothers instinct to protect her son is just that. Her love and nurturing of her son. How dare you challenge that? At the end of the day, is it really your business, our business, or God’s? There are countless people whose lives have been changed, by the ministry of Christ with the help of Dr. Zach. Tims, why can’t that be how saints of God remember him, and not just digging to find out how he died? Death is an appointment that none of will miss, and how you go, should be less important than the impact you made for the positive while you were here. So AT2W, how about uncovering some persons whose lives were changed through the ministry of Zach Tims. Just Sayin, and SMH.
Leslie, though you are entitled to your opinion just as we are, we have to say that we are not just concerned with knowing how he died. We have reported news about him from the beginning and had nothing but positive things to say about him yet we provided the news as it was reported. Though this article is more on the opinion side of the issue, whether people agree or not, it is an issue. We agree with love and nurturing of a child but let’s be real: Zachery Tims was an adult who had issues as to why he was no longer married and let’s not forget that drugs were found on his person. We are not challenging her love for him but the drugs tell a story without speaking on it. With all due respect, by Zachery’s mother covering up the cause of his death, it is not allowing those who sowed into his ministry and followed him any closure. He was a mega minister known all over the world and probably received thousands of dollars in tithes and offerings per week. By his death being covered up, those people are forfeited the right to know whom they followed. Its never going to be put to rest because no one is letting the information out so people who cared and loved him can start to heal and move on. Our intentions are pure yet revealing. The church and some black women in the church do cover and protect their sons to unusual extents. So we are not ‘digging’ into how he died but what is causing the secrecy. This is what we do at AT2W and most people know us by this type of work. Again, we appreciate your opinion on this matter.
Thanks WLEW, we appreciate you for commenting. It certainly shed some light on the topic and our friends at Sanctified Gospel Revolution are good at finding some truth to what’s going on. But your comment tells us we were possibly on the right track. Again thanks for sharing this with our readers.
