host to these allegations include Rev. Fred Kelly of the Landmark Christian Church at
Peachtree Corners. The same pastor that Tom states was critical to his being Born again
two years before Tom's arrest and trial, testified at Tom's Trial, heard Tom's Testimony
on the witness stand and then the PASTOR backs up
encourages and staunchly defends said Christian Testimony even though it is totally
OPPOSITE from Tom's trial testimony.

| *TESTIMONIES
I was watching the news the other night and a man was
interviewing Tom Papania and Tom said he was going to rewrite his book. The news
reporter was saying that he is a fraud, It really bothers me to think that he did
this, he needs good Christian counseling. I am happy that I found your site.
thank you
***********
Hi Rock,
Saw that NBC News Report on Tom. Can not believe he won't give it up, even
after the Mafia historian said he was never connected. I guess this helps your cause. He
really had me believing he was a wise guy. Hate to see this in the body of Christ, but he
has to repent.
***********
To Who it may concern. About a year ago a friend gave me a copy of a tape someone had gave
him.This tape told of an amazing testimony, one I thought was truly a great work for the
Lord.This tape was the testimony of Tom Papania.I never Knew it was a fraud or copied from
someone else.This past week I began researching Tom. To my surprise and everyone whom
listened to the tape surprise we where mislead. I am a young Pastor who is disappointed by
such so called " men of God" who are after financial gains.I hope you will set
the record straight.I will tell all that I let borrow or hear the tape the truth.
May God Bless.

Rock--
This story about Tom is very interesting. I am a member of an Christian organization
that contracted with Tom in 1997 to speak at the National Day of Prayer.
All of our board heard Tom's testimony, some had questions and wanted
clarification. We contacted Tom to clarify some of his comments. Tom got very
angry and defensive, he ended up canceling and hanging up on me and the president of the
organization..
I have more stories, if you are interested let me know.
Best Wishes,
Chuck
**************
To raise more cash and offer his testimony for cash at arenas and stadiums
(do to the fact that God is WORKING) , Tom is publishing a newsletter describes the
YOA/LSYF ministry as: "an obscure 'ministry", consisting of
disgruntled and troubled members of our society, that has not made any contribution to the
Christian Community "

Mat 18:14
Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these
little ones should perish.
18:15
Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault
between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
18:16
But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the
mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
18:17
And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to
hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican. |

"The First Constitutionally Protected Tom Papania Web Site"

By his own
statements, "For the past 10 years" Tom Papania (he changed his name from *Thomas
Papanier) has used a fabricated story and Stolen *Plagiarized
material to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars through the assistance of *Christian
Radio and Television and *Press and
through thousands of CHURCHES (still happening *today)where
he has been able to reach 2 million people both here and abroad.
Yes, for ten years, Tom has told what may be the greatest lie since OJ Simpson said he was
Innocent!
And speaking of *Christian
Radio, it was December of 1996 that Tom received his greatest Promotion, a Promotion
that led to the Gret Tom Papania *Fraud
perpetrated against Christians AND the American Public. In fact, it was a broadcast on *Focus On The
Family, where over 100,000 tapes sold for $7.50 each on the first show alone, that offered
Tom the unprecedented opportunity to ENTRENCH fraud and lies within the Christian
Community and make-it-right! His pay off? The ability to STEAL your cash on the
promise that God had used him to set YOU FREE. The result? Secular-World Is
SAYING:
"Would
this have been possible if the Christian community were not so lost and in search of a
Miracle!"
And why do
we say this?
The facts
have demonstrated through Hard Copy Records, (::click this one>Interviews and *Mail, Court
Records, News Coverage of Tom's Trial, Tom's own *Court
Room testimony and even a Block Buster *CNBC
Interview with Tom AND his ATTORNEY on Feb 15, 2001, that Tom never was the person he
states he was, that tom never experienced or perpetrated the acts he states he did, that
he was exposed as a fraud long before EZnewsTV placed this page, and that Tom continues to
use *Plagiarism
and Copyright Infringement to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars to support a life
style he grew accustomed to that includes *multiple
divorce and contempt charges while FOOLING YOU!.
Says Tom Papania in July of 2001 on his web site:
"A person, a city. a nation will not be changed by timid methods."
What "method" is he talking about? Theft, Robbery? Cunning
Conning? In January of 2001, when Tom was in Savannah, GA, raising MONEY, this is what he
said:
"The Truth Will
set You Free, it is time to change things, there's just too many lies, I am tired of
lies".
What
lies is he talking about? What, they make no difference in his case? A grandson of *Joe The Boss?
How about those *rebuked
by telling the truth?
Again,
read this quote from Tom's website:
" Wise
guy... Good fellow... Mobster... Enforcer Mafiosa... Gangster... These are all names that
at one time described [Thomas Papanier] Tom Papania "
Yet, In 1986, on the
witness stand, under an Oath on The Bible, while his attorney REQUESTED that Tom HOLD a
BIBLE while testifying with rows filled with Christian Church Goers and his *PASTOR as
his cheering gallery.
...
Papanier denied being a member of the Gambino syndicate and said he moved to
"Atlanta to work for Coppola's Jilly's rib restaurants in 1983 to sever his
informal ties with organized crime and "start my life over." By
Gail Epstein Staff Writer 04-04-1987 The Atlanta Journal and Constitution
What about this? Say
what? *CLICK HERE
In the beginning, we battled this
alone, our words twisted and our motive challenged. Many of YOU were allowing this to
continue. MANY of you not even raising a peep, let alone a cry! And though that many have sent
facts, documents and more and great Changes are now occuring, many of you continue to fill Tom's
treasury FULL. Enough that he has been able to hinder a trial date for the Author of House
Of Cards, to file briefs where no fact is told, just more time, energy and money that has
to be spent to defend the TRUTH! In fact, the battle now boils over to
EZnewsTV and Free Speech because we stayed true and kept this page alive! We
do not do this for any other reason but to tell the TRUTH of THIS story.
What
about all those who now point to Christians and say>
"See, they let this liar and cheat continue, why should we believe in a God whose
"children" do little about their own, while pointing fingers at us!"
We believe that this
page is getting the facts out to many and hindering the enemy! Have you taken the time to
view the video? To listen to the facts? To read THIS PAGE? What about Tom's interview, a
live interview where Tom got caught? With his attorney present? Have you seen it on TV?
No? Why? Hey, they love it in Secular- Land.. keep
them there Christians all messed up! Let them tell us how to run M-tv?
"So,
I made a few mistakes ... its hard to tell a story when you have to do it in [an hour and
a half] ... What is wrong with it? What am I doing wrong? "
Well, Tom, you have sold hundreds of thousands of tapes and videos and by YOUR OWN
STATEMENT, have spoken to two million people, in all this time, over ten years?, why
do you continue to *lie?
What of the author whose life and works you have stolen to *further
your fraud? Another fact we do not want opur readers top forget!
Do
we care if Tom spoke in Singapore and Malaysia and Hong Kong and Australia and throughout
the United States? Or do we care that we not promote lies any more? What
do you think will be next? If it is OK today to allow LIES because the story
SOUNDS great, what will TOMORROW bring?
This is
what you are breeding; an e mail July 30, 2001 said -"I'd find some way to give those
tapes away if I thought that it would lead someone out there to Christ" - IMAGINE THIS! And AFTER HE
READ THIS PAGE -you set the tone! What about *this.
Did you
know Tom TRIED to cease his lies but he just could not live without the CASH, The LURE of
the CROWD, the CRUSH of the ADMIRATION? He is HOOKED and you are the lightening ROD!
Repent Not as long as the Money Is Good! Is this his *brother?
To the
secular, what this truly states is that there are PLENTY OF FOOLS willing to part with
their money in the hope that God is alive... that we need LIES to prove our God! What does
that say about Jesus?
NOT FAITH
my friends but DESTRUCTION!
Tom has
packed churches, concert halls, arenas and stadiums with people who want to hear this
powerful and moving FALSE *testimony
BECAUSE YOU SAY IT IS GOOD AND TRUE! Can you not UNDERSTAND THIS? IT IS A LIE! If EZnewsTV
did not place this page, God would have found another! And what of the author *of Father
Figure/House Of Cards? What do you think HE and HIS FAMILY have lived through
these past 4 years?
Imagine,
Tom's new Gloss Over: "consistently practical and relevant messages hit home in the hearts
and minds of his many listeners" AND "Toms
enthusiasm for life and his genuine concern for people inspires a positive attitude that
very often changes lives for the better."
How about
his genuine enthusiasm for cheating, lying, stealing and ability to defraud?
"Tom
ministers to the Cobb County Correctional Institute and travels the county offering the
hope to lost souls that through Jesus all things are possible."
Now we have
Tom saying Jesus allows you to steal, hurt and commit assault upon others as long as it
delivers SOULS!
"This
Atlanta based ministry founded by Tom Papania, reaches Out to people everywhere who are
hungry to hear of a God who is able to transform beyond what man can imagine."
IF THIS IS
WHAT TOM IS ABOUT, THEN HUNGRY FOLKS WILL EAT ANYTHING .. WHY NOT FEED THEM WHAT IS GOOD
and GODLY! NO? THEN CLOSE TOM DOWN!
"The
dynamic force which pulled this man from a life in the Mafia underworld, to find God and
spread His Word with his own powerful story, is truly Gods Saving Grace."
What, are
we senile here? WHAT MAFIA FIGURE is this writer, the one Tom hired with all those big
bucks of YOURS, writing about? Read BELOW!
During
the 1990's, the FBI pulled out all the stops looking to make a
case against the first made guy to set up shop in Atlanta:*How can Tom claim
Atlanta Mafia Statuswhen the only Made Mafia figure ever to set up shop in Atlanta was
recently indicted and arrested *a GAMBINO at
that?
Well, if
you are truly a Right Standing Person, then help fight this battle! GET INVOLVED ...
EZnewsTV.com believes
that Truth & Freedom Of Speach! and *the BIBLE
IMPLORES ACTION NOW! The day will come when you may regret that you did not help HALT
his ways. Mark The Word!
Look for http://tompapania.net , a page exposing those whom use
the Cloth to Specifically Profit From You! |

"After almost a year, I was set
free by the Grace of God."
Why?
TOM TOLD THE
TRUTH!
And what was that TRUTH?
"(AJC)"Tommy Papanier, a
co-defendant in the trial of accused racketeer Carl Coppola, took the witness stand
Thursday and disputed previous testimony that he was connected to New York's Gambino
organized crime family. "
So the Truth
set Tom free!
but, in the years since Tom's acquittal
"By The Grace Of God" in 1987, Tom began to lose his love of God, he began to
sink into depravity in his quest for $$.. over 10 years of Paid For Testimony, Tom
has lied, cheated, stolen and committed fraud. The PROOF?
."... I'm different. I'm
the third highest in the Gambino family"... "I've got a few hundred people
working for me, and I've got about forty businesses I'm controlling. I've got millions of
dollars"
And why are these
statements important as to lies? Did Tom commit Perjury at the trail and now tells the
truth?
NO, for God DID set him free,
but then he began telling a story where Truth became LIES and the $$$ Flowed ...better
then his 20 years of trying to be a MOBSTER!
"(AJC)... Coppola and Papanier had had a falling-out ... Coppola
decided to take Papanier off the Jilly's payroll and stop paying rent on his Dunwoody
home, Biscuiti said. "
So, WHAT IS THE TRUTH?
He says today that "I looked
around, I had cars and homes and ... yet a drug dealer paid his rent /salary...and he was the THIRD HIGHEST
in the Gambino Crime Family?
... extensive facts have
shown that TOM TOLD THE TRUTH at his trial and even The CHURCH was there..
"(AJC)
Ten members of his Norcross church lined the courtroom benches...his attorney
unsuccessfully sought permission for Papanier to hold his Bible while on the witness
stand...."
... yes, these are FACTS from the Trial that
form the base of Tom's Present Day Testimony.... a testimony he has altered...and now has
us believe that this altered, Plagiarized
testimony is as powerful as the History of Paul The Apostle... "on a road to Damasacus
experience"
The TRUTH and TESTIMONY are
such opposites, one wonders why he is STILL raising HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of DOLLARS
telling a lie?
"And as I started
reading the indictment, I saw I was charged with two murders, distributing a hundred kilos
of cocaine a week from Atlanta to New York, charged with racketeering, and so many other
things. And I looked at the indictment, and I said, "God," I said, 'this is all
a mistake'."
this is all a mistake? wait a minute, how
gullible are YOU>?< On one hand, in the very testimony that REFLECTS on GOD, he is
saying he ordered the murder of another person (below) and the other hand it was all a
mistake? And then adds more charges onto the indictment!
"(AJC) While
Coppola's hearing was going on, defense attorney Alan Begner was in the next-door
courtroom urging U.S. Magistrate John R. Strother to free Papanier on bond. Papanier
is charged with conspiracy to murder and conspiracy to distribute
cocaine"
If even ONE LIE is present,
it nullifies the message. And if Churches and Men Of Respect in the Christian Church
continue to back Tom, then THEIR message is NULL and VOID....and what happens to
God's Word?
"(AJC)...regarding the murders,
Papanier denied plotting with Coppola to kill associates Daniel Forgione and Joseph Cam.
Instead, as Coppola had done, Papanier pointed the finger at a key prosecution witness who
implicated both accused racketeers in the South Florida murders ..."
Again, we discover a lie, for
in Tom's "ten years" of speaking SINCE the "God and Truth SET Me FREE", he has not held
high that truth of the Witness Stand where he DENIED having anything to do with the
CONSPIRACY to MURDER. In fact, this writer has undeniable proof that Tom had NOTHING to do
with these conspiracies and told the truth as outlined above, yet he offers the world this
story today!
"... I want an example set of those
three men ...
Within two days, I was told two [Joseph Cam] of the kidnappers were found
dead in the street with bullets in the back of their heads.."
why is this all
important?
YES! Even ONE LIE would render null and void this
man's story and would NOT be Grace By GOD!
We have demonstrated by Tom's
OWN Testimony that Tom told the TRUTH at the trial and has since "CREATED" the Gambino Mafia Figure that
he wanted to be for nearly 60 years!
