Devastating Proof of Brian Houston Lying to the Royal Commission (and Everyone Else!)

Devastating Proof of Brian Houston Lying to the Royal Commission (and Everyone Else!)

Brian Houston glossed over the pedophilia that his father, Frank Houston, confessed to in 1999. In his seventies, Frank admitted to Brian that he had committed child molestation. This is the "Hillsong Day of Infamy." Instead of turning his father over the proper authorities, like he was supposed to do, Brian swept this very disturbing information under the rug. It appears that protecting the Hillsong brand name (and Houston family name) has always been more important than protecting children.

Brian Houston repeatedly claimed (under oath to the Royal Commission!) that he forced his father into immediate retirement from ministry, but in reality, Frank Houston continued preaching right up until his death in 2004. 

Here are a number of times that Brian Houston lied to the Australian Royal Commission in 2014:

“But from a perspective of my responsibility, I saw my responsibility mainly as being the now, the present. And the present was that Frank was an ordained Assemblies of God pastor; he was a former pastor of Sydney Christian Life Centre; he was now an itinerant pastor attached to Sydney Christian Life Centre, and I saw my main responsibility, in terms of Frank, as addressing that, and, in my mind, he would never preach again, and he never did.”

— Brian Houston quote, Royal Commission Case Study 18, Transcript Day 88, page 77

“Again, from the moment I first confronted my father, I knew, as his overseeing pastor at Hillsong, he would never preach publicly again, and he never did.”

— Brian Houston quote, Royal Commission Case Study 18, Transcript Day 88, page 96

“I suspended him there and then. I ensured that from that day on, he never preached again in his life, anywhere…”

— Brian Houston quote, Royal Commission Case Study 18, Transcript Day 89, page 16

“That he “would be” stood down is a misinterpretation. He was stood down instantly. As a matter of fact, I will reinforce it again: he never, ever preached again anywhere after I confronted him in my office in mid to late November 1999.”

— Brian Houston quote, Royal Commission Case Study 18, Transcript Day 89, page 27

“I knew that he would never preach again and that he would not be in active ministry again, and he never was.”

— Brian Houston quote, Royal Commission Case Study 18, Transcript Day 89, page 36

A video of Brian Houston on television with the (fake) story of how he stopped his father from preaching ever again was available at the original writing of this post but it is no longer available due to the termination of the account which contained the video.

We originally had a video of Frank Houston in a rambling and pointless "sermon" in September of 2004; however, it is no longer available. In it Frank made very clear when this happened; he made repeated references to the death of his wife, Hazel, which took place in early 2004, and he made repeated remarks about his own age at the time. Frank also made a number of (uncomfortable) comments about the good-looking children in the audience that day.

At the end of the "sermon" Frank Houston can be heard "speaking in tongues" like a babbling idiot. Listen to this if you want to get in the mood for Halloween:

(10/01/2021) The audio file is not available at this time. It should be available soon. Since this audio file was previously on our blog with Pirate Christian, you may listen to it by clicking here for the previous version of this post. The videos however, are not longer available for viewing.
