Dewey Rowe Ministries

[dustinburke]

Beware! Self proclaimed "Prophet" and founder of Dewey Rowe Ministries, Inc., Dr. Dewey Rowe is a fraud (www.theprophetsvoice.com (http://www.theprophetsvoice.com)).

He is a megla-maniac that has designed his "ministry" to promote his inflated view of his own importance and to funnel the tithes and offerings of his followers that he often refers to as "borderline retarded" (yes, he is talking about the Cleveland, TN bunch) to support his opulent home in Kissimmee, FL (BTW, nice pad, Dewey).

Worse than that, he has attempted to and continues to meddle in my marriage; even convincing my wife to move onto his compound so that he can indoctrinate our new-born daughter as soon as possible and without interference.

He prays upon the weak minded and poor, convincing them that he is an Elisha type and is “THE Prophet.” Warning! Stay away! He is both charismatic and convincing.

(Yes, Dewey, it’s Dustin. Stay away from my family! Law enforcement is aware that you have aided and abetted your fugitive son, Bryan. Better get a new code name for “Gator.”)

(DISCLAIMER: This message is not being sent to Dewey Rowe or anyone affiliated with the Dewey Rowe Cult, I mean "Ministries". This is a public post on my views and beliefs on Dewey Rowe and his cult, ahem "ministry". One should read this with caution, as it may be contradictory with the gospel of Dewey. Sarcasm: At all times believe the word of Dewey over the word of God, or even God Himself.)

Update: I received a call from the so-called "Prophet" today. He was very upset with my previous post. I'm not sure what part he was specifically upset with.

Additionally, he told me that I was a "bad person" and "couldn't be trusted." As a believer in the whole word, the only opinion that matters to me is God's opinion. And the word says that anyone that is in Him is “the righteousness of God in Christ." So the garbage he said about me being a bad person, yada yada, is immaterial to me. I think he is just mad because I told the truth.

And when I really think about it, the only thing he denied to me today was that he had meddled in my marriage. So I guess one could assume that he admitted the rest by failing to deny the accusation? I’m not part of the cult, so he may have denied it to them. If anyone knows, let me know.

What was interesting is that there appears to be some damage control going on at the compound about how he addressed the Cleveland, TN congregation (as a people that are "borderline retarded"). If anyone would like to verify that he said this, I can give them the names and telephone numbers of six or more people that will confirm he has said that about the people in Cleveland, TN (the Tabernacle of the Living Word congregation). In fairness, I think he likes that group the best though because they hold him in such high esteem. He has told me that he prefers "preaching in Cleveland, but Baltimore has the money.” So I guess Cleveland has the loyalty and Baltimore the money. Baltimore must be a good business decision.

Yes, he mettles in my marriage and my family, and continues to do so to this day. He has an unholy control over my wife and her family. It appears to be a strong spirit of bondage. But I’m not a prophet, so don’t take my word for it. I guess one could ask Dewey… (Sarcasm: I mean he wouldn’t lie, he’s in the ministry)

Oh, and I have found out that this “man of God” has an arrest record for sexually related crimes. He was arrested in 1996 in Orange County, FL and 2002 in Kissimmee, FL. Per public records, he admitted exposing himself to the courts. It is odd thing that such a self proclaimed annointed man would go around showing people his genitals. If you like, I can send his criminal history report upon request.

All of this is true or believed to be true. If Dewey had left my family alone, I probably would have been complicit about his misdeeds and kept quiet. But he is trying to take my family from me, and I hope this information helps others see the truth about this magnificent con artist.

[dustinburke]

I just received word that someone may file a complaint against Dewey Rowe and Dewey Rowe Ministries alleging constructive fraud, fraud in the inducement, unjust enrichment, and interference with custody. I wonder how that will play out in judicial system and the court of public opinion.

Since I discovered my wife had our child, I've been trying to spend time with her (the child), but have been denied access by the "Prophet" because she lives on the compound.

I've been out to the place a couple times trying to see my new-born, but was trespassed by the "Prophet" from the property. Then after getting law enforcement to help me visit with my baby for 20 minutes in the middle of a pasture, the deputies from Osceola County told me he was going to press charges against me for stalking. He thinks I'm stalking HIM. Apparently, staying 200 yards away from his house is causing him emotional destress. But really, I don't care about Dewey; I only want to visit with my baby. But, again, the megalomaniac thinks that I am coming to his property to harass him. :rolleyes:

A lawsuit was filed this day in Polk County Florida against Dewey Rowe and Dewey Rowe Ministries. The Complaint alleges "Constructive Fraud", "Fraud in the Inducement", "Unjust Enrichment" and two counts of "Interfering with Custody." I wonder when he will get served. Another Complaint was filed against two of his cult members with two counts of "Interfering with Custody." Civil trials get ugly and expensive. Maybe they can work it out amicably... I think one of the defendants can get in trouble with their job if they are sued... but I don't know that for sure and really don't want that to happen. I wonder if his job will find out.


I also saw that injunctions were filed today against Dewey and two of his cronies for detaining and concealing the whereabouts of a child.

All I think the guy wants is to have reasonable time-sharing with his child... and if Dewey and his cronies would get out of the way, that would happen and everyone could go back to leaving each other alone.

[dustinburke]

I've had questions come in about Dewey's arrest record and what the charges were for. I don't have the old statutes from 1996 and 2002, but the current statutes should give one a good idea:

For the 1996 violation, the current statute reads:

800.03 Exposure of sexual organs.--It is unlawful to expose or exhibit one's sexual organs in public or on the private premises of another, or so near thereto as to be seen from such private premises, in a vulgar or indecent manner, or to be naked in public except in any place provided or set apart for that purpose. Violation of this section is a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 (http://www.leg.state.fl.us/STATUTES/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=Ch0775/Sec082.HTM) or s. 775.083. (http://www.leg.state.fl.us/STATUTES/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=Ch0775/Sec083.HTM) A mother's breastfeeding of her baby does not under any circumstance violate this section.

I don't know what he was doing, I haven't read the reports yet. But a request via the Freedom of Information Act would provide a lot of insight. Once I get that information, I'll share with anyone who requests the information. I may even post on here. Who knows? (Oh yeah, Dewey knows; he's a prophet). In fairness, Dewey could have simply been unrinating in public, though I doubt it. If you've ever heard his story on Adam and Eve having a threesome with the Serpent in the garden of Eden, it makes you wonder what else goes through his mind.

For the 2002 violation, the current statute reads:



810.14 Voyeurism prohibited; penalties.--
(1) A person commits the offense of voyeurism when he or she, with lewd, lascivious, or indecent intent, secretly observes another person when the other person is located in a dwelling, structure, or conveyance and such location provides a reasonable expectation of privacy. (2) A person who violates this section commits a misdemeanor of the first degree for the first violation, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 (http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=Ch0775/Sec082.HTM) or s. 775.083. (http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=Ch0775/Sec083.HTM)

I didn't know Dewey in 2002, but for those of you who did, I'd be concerned. My wife knew him then, and lives with him now. To say the least, I am very concerned for her sake. But to be fair, it may have been very innocent. Though I can't imagine how one would innocently view someone with lewd, lasciviously, or indecent intent view someone else where that person had a reasonable expectation of privacy. Maybe someone could clue me in on that.

Some people, in order to hide their own corrupt, criminal behavior call everything "stalking"... I say the more a guy points fingers at other people and accuses them of being stalkers, the more he has to hide about himself and his own perverse and criminal behavior... THAT'S why conservatives make this info public record, versus closet liberals and the ACLU who want this info hidden away.

I am very grateful for the private messages and emails I’ve received from the many readers on FACTnet. There have been a lot of requests for information, so over the next few days, I hope to get to many, if not all, of them.

One question I’ve received is, “How have his prophecies stacked up? Do they come true or not?” Let me just say this, most of Dewey’s prophecies that I am privy to are either too vague to document either way, or they are just wrong. Now, the reason he and his crony ministers say they didn’t come true was because of some fault on the part of the receiver: Either the receiver didn’t understand the prophecy correctly, or they did not do their part to receive the prophecy, or any other reason to justify a false prophecy.

And to be fair, I understand that there are conditional promises in the Word, such as: “IF my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray… I will heal their lands.” Or, “IF you are willing and obedience, you will eat the good of the land.” These promises are certainly conditional. But Dewey’s words that I’ve heard don’t have the conditional “IF.” The “IF” always comes later when the word did not come to pass.

During late 2007, finances were tough so I inquired to what the Lord had for me for the end of the year. His exact response was, “I have (I the Prophet, the mouth of God), have been praying for you. I believe (I the prophet, the one with divine powers) you will end the year victoriously.” A great word of encouragement from a prophet right…. Well, did it happen? Nope, I ended the year broke and in great turmoil. But the reason I ended the year opposite the way he said was because “I was wrong in my heart.” But that word didn’t seem conditional until it didn’t happen.

I know of another instance of a woman going through a divorce, she inquired of him to what the outcome would be. (Backtrack a bit, the woman had been having problems with her marriage for awhile, and the Prophet confided in me that the Lord was going to “take that man,” her husband if he didn’t change.) Well, he didn’t change and he ended up filing for divorce from this woman. Dewey told her that she was going to be fine in court and that, in fact, he “saw a folder with important documents being opened to her” to help her with the divorce. The divorce went through and there was never a folder found. But she must have done or said something that would have caused that word from Dewey not to happen.

Oh, he also told me and my wife we would have a son… we didn’t, we had a daughter. And he also said that Hilary Clinton would be president and it would not "that muslim Barrack Obama" (yikes, not even close on that one. I kept waiting for something to happen to Barrack so Hilary would get the job. Surprisingly nothing ever happend.). But let’s save his political views for a different thread. Today I just wanted to touch on some of his crap prophecies. More information to come.

Thanks again for all the questions and support from the readers.

God bless!

After speaking with the Osceola County State Attorney’s office and the general counsel of the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office, I have a strong and reasonable belief that I am a victim of a third degree felony at the hands of Dewey Rowe and two of his cronies. Section 787.03(2) reads:

(2) In the absence of a court order determining rights to custody or visitation with any minor or with any incompetent person, any parent of the minor or incompetent person, whether natural or adoptive, stepparent, legal guardian, or relative of the minor or incompetent person who has custody thereof and who takes, detains, conceals, or entices away that minor or incompetent person within or without the state with malicious intent to deprive another person of his or her right to custody of the minor or incompetent person commits a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 (http://www.flsenate.gov/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=Ch0775/Sec082.HTM), s. 775.083 (http://www.flsenate.gov/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=Ch0775/Sec083.HTM), or s. 775.084. (http://www.flsenate.gov/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&Search_String=&URL=Ch0775/Sec084.HTM)

This statute is very specific to my situation AND has been violated. I attempted to file a complaint earlier with the sheriff’s office, but there was some initial confusion on my rights to enforce the statute. After speaking with the state attorney’s office and the general counsel of the Sheriff’s office, it appears that I do have the legal standing to press such charges and I intend to do so on my next visit to Osceola County. It is not my intent to have anyone arrested, but I am being denied all access to my child at the hands of Dewey Rowe and his cronies.

It is through my experience with this man that I believe he has no respect for the law or the justice system. He is quick to tell people that police officers and members of the justice system at large are part of what he calls "the Serpent Seed," non-believers destined for hell. If he really feels this way, no wonder he and his followers break the law.

[smyrna]

Well, you've gotta love (sarcastically speaking) guys like Rowe, who bring attention to the out of control far right Christian groups.

They will be responsible, and to an extent already are for the persecution of mainstream Christians. Sadly though, some of this persecution of mainstream Christianity manifests istelf in internecine jihads against otehr Christain denominations.

I know what I'm about to say is off topic, but please allow this:

Pope Benedict XVI's encyclical published yesterday will be attacked by the far right whacko Christian fundamentalists as an advocacy of a one world government.

Even though they among all Christianity know that the prophecies of the one world system is a necessary sign of the end times, they fight against it. They want to stop it.

But Pope Benedict isn't advocating a one world government, only a way to clean up the current system of global trade. He suggests stronger oversight, which the United Nations has not fulfilled.

Now this does relate to the Dewey situation, because he's probably one of the guys who wants to destroy what he already sees as a one world system, therefore he really is going against God's will.

[dustinburke]

Smyrna,

Well, I don't know what Dewey's particular stance is on the "one world government," but it's clear to me that he does go against God's will whenever it is convenient for him to do so. Particularly in my situation, he, directly or through his ministers, advises my wife to divorce me but he cannot provide a Biblical reason to support it. (Sarcasm) I mean, forget what Paul or even Jesus said about divorce. In fact, I've heard it said by them in the group that since I was not taking the "proper spiritual role in our house, God was lifting up my wife to be the leader." In other words, "since I do not recognize Dewey's authority, my wife should leave with our child and come under Dewey’s yoke of bondage and control." Forget that I have completely submitted to the leadership of a church that reaches countless people across the world. Forget that I was the only one in my family praying on the floor of our home at two in the morning. Forget that I was the only one in my home volunteering my time, talents, and money to God's ministry. I didn't submit to the pseudo-authority of Rowe, therefore I was spiritually deficient.

One thing that I've found odd is that it doesn't appear to me that Dewey is accountable to anyone. It seems to me that the leaders in creditable organizations are accountable to others: i.e. the elders, advisory council, etc. But not Dewey. I've heard him say that Paul was wrong on some things and discards the things Paul says as heresy. If anyone knows who Dewey is accountable to, except to his over-exaggerated view of his own self-importance, please let me know and I'll post it here for clarification.

I can say without doubt that I believe Dewey follows the objectives of Dewey above God's will, even if God's will is clearly written in God's word.

God bless!

Now this does relate to the Dewey situation, because he's probably one of the guys who wants to destroy what he already sees as a one world system, therefore he really is going against God's will.

Dewey does rail against the US government, saying that it is evil (which in large part, it is). But he forgets that God has set up all governments and that we are to submit to that authority. After all, even the corrupt governments are authorized by the greatest One.

[dustinburke]

Recently the statement was made to me from someone on the compound, “You’d better be careful talking bad about Dewey. How do you know he’s not a prophet?”

Well, I know because the word of God says that you shall know a tree by its fruit. A true man of God would abide by the written word first and then by the spoken word. The written word always takes precedence over what is spoken to your heart. “Test the spirits,” remember?

So when Dewey’s ministers tell my wife to divorce me and they have no Biblical reason, that minister is wrong and ministering demonic doctrine. When Dewey divides a church in Cleveland, TN to set up his own church, Dewey has harmed the Body of Christ and his actions are wicked.

Remember, the church is the Bride of Christ… and if you’ve ever sat down with Dewey, he tells you quickly how wrong the church is and how they (the church) has missed their calling. Also, God has established the family. Dewey is wrong to break it up.

On a side note, he also says that the nation of Israel was “spiritually aborted” by God. My Bible says that we (the Gentiles) have been grafted into the Olive Tree (symbolic of the decedents of Abraham) and that we are, by adoption, of the lineage of Abraham. But according to Dewey, Israel has been “aborted.” If Israel has been aborted, then to what tree are we being grafted to?

So in light of the statements I’ve received that Dewey is a prophet, I’d like to play a game called “If Dewey was a prophet…” Let those that have an ear, let them hear that we may reason together.

If Dewey was a prophet…

…wouldn’t he have known that he was going to get caught exposing his genitals?

…wouldn’t he have known that he was going to get caught secretly viewing people in a lewd and lascivious manner?

…wouldn’t he have known that his marriage would fail and he would be divorced?

…wouldn’t he have known that my marriage, a marriage he blessed as long as I was giving his ministry money, would be a marriage that he would later recommend to be dissolved?

…wouldn’t he know that God hates divorce and the matter has been settled in the written word?

…why then does he have so many missed prophecies?

…wouldn’t he also know that unlawfully harboring my child isn’t a wise thing to do?

…wouldn’t he have known that his son was going to break out of prison and been prepared for it, rather than being forced to hastily vacate a “revival service”?

These are just some questions that I have and I hope someone will be able to answer them for me?

God bless,

Dustin
