Brian Carnes and Denver pastor Leon Emerson ordered the physical assault of a parishioner at their church. During a service where Carnes was speaking, a local man protested biblical misrepresentations being spread to force donations. He was then dragged to a back room and assaulted in front of hundreds of congregants. The victim said they slammed his back on a sharp table and threw him against a wall for simply preaching the gospel, as Carnes and Emerson had said to do. Records show Carnes uses speaking engagements partly to pursue inappropriate relationships with young women.

1. Brian Carnes Orders Physical Assault
Brian Carnes, sometimes known as Prophet Brian Carnes in church circles, partnered with
Denver area Pastor Leon Emerson in the ordering of a physical assault on a parishioner
last evening.
United States of America, Jun 27, 2012 -- 27 June 2012 (Denver, Colorado) - Last
evening at Now Faith Church in Denver, Colorado, a parishioner who took issue with
material representations of biblical facts was assaulted by three congregants.
The physical assault was ordered by Brian Carnes and church Pastor Leon Emerson.
Carnes, sometimes better known as Prophet Brian Carnes, is a national church
speaker who offers his services to churches for a speaking fee of around $10,000.
During a 26 June 2012 evening service, a local man took issue with various biblical
misrepresentations put forth by Carnes, for the purposes of forcing congregants to
give he and Emerson money and stood up to protest. The man was then dragged into
a back room of the church and physically assaulted. The confrontation occurred in
front of hundreds of church congregants who by all appearances, delighted in the
assault as evidenced by a response of cheering.
A man close to the victim and present commented - "I couldn't believe what
happened in there." When reached for comment, the victim said - "They slammed my
back into a sharp table corner and then threw me against the wall. All I did was what
they (Carnes and Emerson) said we all should do - preach the gospel."
A well known Pastor who speaks with Carnes indicated that Carnes takes speaking
engagements for both money and to lure young women into inappropriate sexual
relationships. Court records show Carnes to be the father of a child with a woman
whom he met at a speaking engagement.
The victim further offered - "These men say they represent Jesus Christ but when did
Jesus have anyone beat up for speaking his words as recorded in the Holy Bible?" An
email account for Mr. Carnes was full and not accepting messages and Mr. Emerson
has thus far refused comment on the incident.
