The news of Scott Stapp's alleged drug relapse and divorce from his wife Jaclyn, has taken a turn for the worse as more details regarding the Creed singer's collapse have been detailed.

After previously posting a couple of videos on Facebook explaining his debt and financial issues, which include him living out his car and in a hotel for a number of days, he took them down and replaced it with another message.

"I'm going to step back and let God control everything from here on. I should have continued to do that before I allowed my hurt, frustration, and emotions take control and post those videos," Stapp wrote, "All I can say is that the truth will set you (me) free, and I'm holding on to Jeremiah 29:11 and Isaiah 44:8. This is a test of faith, and I will NEVER give up or lose my faith. No matter what. This will be my last statement until after justice is served. Love to you all my friends."

According to Yahoo Music, a sheriff department in Madison Country, Florida stated that on November 13 Stapp was found in his car on the side of the road. He was reportedly incoherent and intoxicated and said someone was "trying to poison him." It was then he was placed on a 72-hour psychiatric hold.

Jaclyn Stapp has filed for divorce and is asking for full custody of their children because of an alleged month long methamphetamines and steroid binge last month. According to the Miami Herald, Jaclyn feels Stapp is incapable of taking care of the children and has threatened to kill himself and others during fits of paranoia.

Two of the more telling text message exchanges released to the public include, "I'm coming to get you Satan and children. No mercy. You know how this ends. God created you and now God is ending you," and "Florida is not safe. Biological weapons on the way. U have to leave with kids and meet me in Atlanta."

TMZ reported, the singer called up his son's school on November 10 and told them ISIS was "targeting" his school. He also told his AA sponsor that "he has guns" and was threatened to kill him.

Jaclyn also claimed Stapp began selling off possessions to pay for a drug binge that included "steroids, weed, cocaine, PCP, Special K, Crystal meth, and various Rx drugs."

"I'm sober, I'm safe as of right now...don't believe in any of the lives. The truth will prevail, the truth will come out," Stapp said last week, "I've recently rededicated my life to Christ...my message and my testimony, and how Christ has done so many amazing things for me. God has a reason for this...I know He has a purpose."

Stapp also recently announced a crowd funding campaign to raise $480,000 for a new album and a solo fiction book. He wants Producer Howard Bensen and Chris Lord-Alge to mix it. That information can be found here
