Bishop Eddie Long apologizes to Jewish group after Torah ceremonyAtlanta (CNN) - Bishop Eddie Long has apologized to the Anti-Defamation League over an incident in which he was wrapped in a Torah scroll and crowned "king." As shown in a video that went viral, the televangelist was wrapped in a "Holocaust Torah" and crowned king during a recent ceremony at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church, his suburban Atlanta congregation. "The ceremony was not my suggestion, nor was it my intent, to participate in any ritual that is offensive in any manner to the Jewish community, or any group. Furthermore, I sincerely denounce any action that depicts me as a King, for I am merely just a servant of the Lord," Long wrote in a letter dated Saturday. FULL STORY

My problem is that bthere seems to be way too much Jewish influence in Christian ceremonies today. There's no way a Jewish religious artefact should be allowed to enter a church unless it is tied to Christ or the apostles.
