Brian Carn, Taxes & The IRS Don't Mix

Update: YOU ALREADY KNOW...9 MONTHS...What else does anyone need to say? 

BREAKING: Televangelist Brian Carn has pled GUILTY in Federal Court to charges of Tax Fraud and Evasion. 

1/15/2026 From the DOJ Office of Public Affairs:

"A few months later, when the IRS attempted to collect his unpaid taxes — including by placing liens on his properties and attempting to levy his bank accounts — Carn amended his 2015 tax return and falsely removed nearly $1.3 million in income that he previously reported. To accomplish this, Carn hired a new accountant and provided him with a fictitious, backdated employment agreement that provided for an annual salary of $120,000 and an annual parsonage allowance of $24,000. Carn represented to his accountant that this was all the income he earned for the year. Carn represented third parties on credit applications, financial account openings, and lease applications, and otherwise knew that the income he actually earned far exceeded the purported salary in the employment agreement provided to the new accountant..

In the following years, operating under the premise of the fictitious employment agreement, Carn filed a series of other tax returns that drastically underreported his true income. But in 2020, he stopped filing tax returns, despite continuing to earn income by using ministry funds to pay for personal expenses."

Believe me...I have been in JAIL before (certainly not for anything close to this)....but Yep, I have been in for my own ignorance and violation of the law. Nobody at the Dunamis WORD is happy that anyone suffers and loses their freedom. Take it from me, those metal benches and seats and commissary allowances are not worth trading freedom, needless to say, dollar pancake dinners and unsweetened tea...That is for the birds and I wish that noone has to go through that for any length of time. 

HOWEVER...there comes a time when we must examine what is actually going on and  THANK GOD for bringing abuse to an end and appreciate God for doing as HE wishes to do. 

Brian Carn The Demise Of An Abuser

This is a huge occurrence. Brian Carn has a huge following. Unfortunately, he is certainly a false prophet, and one that has allegedly used women sexually and has at least 1 child, ALLEGEDLY, that he has abandoned...BUT...is yet a human being that has delivered some good things to people over the years (among his many abuses and as abusers often do)

This is not about dragging Brian Carn, (our newest COGIC Pastor) but it is about THANKING GOD that he is correcting the House of God. Yet, there are folk that will still send him support by the droves. Probably all the fees associated with his pending imprisonment, will be paid by his most ardent supporters. They are the blind. Those who have been led astray. Those who have lent their resources to supporting abuse, ungodliness, immoral lifestyles, malfeasance and misfeasance and moral turpitude. 

No matter what, God is in control, but let this be a warning to the rest of us to GET OUR HOUSES IN ORDER. In fact, not just that...STOP PLAYING WITH GOD! 

Yep. I REPENTED. Fell on my face for my inadequacy and my thoughts that I could just "get by". I took my time (my days...not months and or years, THANK GOD!) to take a whole life, family and ministry view...to look at ME and what I had done to contribute to my trouble and most of all commit to never be found there again. 

It WORKED! Repentance always does.

Compassion Must Meet & Agree WIth TRUTH

Even though we are a compassionate people...for all men and especially for those of us who are real in the faith, we must thank God for correction and bringing abuse, usury and unrighteousness to an end. We all saw this coming, with the illicit portrayals on the internet and alleged "prophecies" following a witch's lead. This man ministered a long time on "fumes" of righteousness, getting by to seduce the most gullible. 

But yet, noone wants to see anyone fall for real. But our desire to want to support someone in trouble must meet the truth of God's word, for in his judgement, which in part this is, someone else has been delivered and set free. Someone, who was abused by him and his unchecked actions, have been brought to a place of relief. 

My prayers are for THEM...God has Carn right where he needs to be, as a beginning of the correction, but those followers, alleged abandoned kids and those associated with him who will suffer loss, need our prayers...and yes, some of them need to repent too, because they were going to ride this false horse for all that it was worth...WELL, Like David Taylor...IT'S OVER NOW!

This is what I recently stated about this revelation:

LET ALL ABUSERS BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE:

Don't try to soften it up. Carn knew what he did and continued in it. Carn doesn't represent "the Body of Christ". He represents himself, not all believers. Stop having sentiments for unrepentant criminals. He claims he doesn't need to repent for anything and has taken his self exaltation to the highest heights.

Prison ministry it is and count all else as loss to potentially save his soul. That is a good thing IF he repents. Scripture distinguishes faults from sins. Self exaltation is a sin, not in the category of a fault. Keep faults at a place to relate...but the WORD said SHOW MY PEOPLE THEIR SINS! (Is 58:1)

Yep, we all feel for Carn, but he victimized millions he is the abuser and now the abuser faces justice and that is a good thing!

False Prophet Carn Strikes Again

Deut 18:22~ when a prophet speaks in the name of the LORD, if the word does not come to pass or come true, that is a word that the LORD has not spoken; the prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You need not be afraid of him.

Please believe me, I don't know Brian Carn, I have no axe to grind against Brian Carn and have no sort of negative interaction or ill feelings towards Brian Carn...but THIS displays what cannot be denied according to the word of God. This prophet has NO word from the Lord. Time to repent Elder Carn!

Don't forget THIS STORY that we've already done on the utterances of this man.

Blessed!

Brian Carn...In The Lineage Of TUFIK

Read "Touch Not" 9/2010

As I listened to Brian Carn's latest retorts and condemnation against those who have exposed his ministry (as if the false prophecies weren't already enough) I noticed the same "touch not mine anointed" GARBAGE that nearly all these false prophets have used for years in his speech along with the "God's gonna get you" mess too...

See, I remember when Jones...that is MURDERER and false prophet Jim (God said poison them in Guyana) Jones, said the same things as well. He too was trying to convince people that he was a great Messianic leader, highly anointed, and prior to his death WAS Jesus in the flesh himself. After educated and uneducated, wealthy and poor died together in a strange land at the hand of this vile and evil person, only then did people begin to wake up to the fact that the devil that they had been preaching about was a real devil.  

Then there was Tony "touch not mine anointed" Leyva. An evangelist and prophet who coined the phrase "touch not" among modern day ministers. Tony molested and trafficked over some 700 young boys in the Southeastern United States. The largest child prostitution ring in US history at the time...He traveled extensively, prophesying, talking a good talk, filling auditoriums and churches, and used his national radio program, asking folk to fund his campaign against the FBI investigation that he was under, preaching loudly "TOUCH NOT MINE ANOINTED" and that God was going to destroy his enemies...He would warn that people should "keep their mouth off of the man of God"...I guess his mouth on his victims private parts was enough!

When the dust settled, Leyva died in abject shame in prison as skin cancer ravaged him. To prove how filled with the devil he actually was, even after his release from prison, he still couldn't keep his hands off of kids...

Then there was Earl Paulk. A so called Bishop in ATL. packing the people in with his "dominion now" theology and false "doctrine of the King's meat" in which he claimed that all leaders and kings (like Pastors and Bishops) were entitled to. In his secret teaching he noted that kings had "abundant meat" in the Kingdom, without restriction. eg: Kings had as many wives and as much sex as they could stand and God did not restrict or condemn them. As a pastoral leader, he felt that he was in a unique position to do the same...

Psychic Readings, The Confused & The Powerless

Deut. 18:20-22 ~ 20-But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. 21-And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken? 22-When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.

Of late there has been a huge controversy over the apparent fraud perpetrated by one "Prophet" Brian Carn. Evidently, Mr. Carn took it upon himself to use a prediction of a psychic in a 2015 New Year's Eve service in which he rendered, nearly verbatim, predictions from the psychic, claiming that he was speaking from, or had received his words from the Lord. Not only did he use the psychic words, but nearly none of the so called "prophecies" came to pass. All of this is problematic and calls into question Mr. Carn's credibility not only as a prophet, but also as a servant of God.

Evidently, Carn recently called the actions of LeAndria Johnson into question I suppose calling on pastors to boycott her ministry. This evoked quite a carnal response from Lexi "Holy Ghost Enforcer" Allen, who berated Carn, calling him 'Nigga" and saying that LeAndria was "my girl" and that he had no business even speaking negatively against her. (See video below)

Is There Room For False Prophecy or "Inaccuracy" Among Modern Day Prophets?

Deut. 18:18-22 ~ 18-I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. 19-And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him. 20-But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. 21-And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken? 22-When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him."

Known all around the country as Prophet Brian Carn, Brian Carn has taken the evangelism circuit by storm. On almost any website you will find that this "prophet" as he believes himself to be called, is said to not only be a true man of God, but also deliver what are called "prophetic utterances" with complete accuracy.

Now, be clear, the purpose of this post is not to impugn the character of Prophet Carn. By all accounts he is a godly and saved man and THANK GOD
