Personally, I enjoyed listening to him, but I sent someone in need to his church and she was turned away. That was it for me. They can have their trips to Aspen while the flock struggles.

Remember, God's curse is not removed until Revelation 22. All demonic spirits/bodies will be destroyed before Christ "makes all things new".

Yep, it is what you dont want to here that is good for the soul.


Thats right.A real man/woman of God will tell what you need to hear,not what you want to hear.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 367376


The truth is a sword that cuts and hurts:

Matthew 10
32 "Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven. 33 But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven. 34 Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth, but a sword. 35 For I have come to turn

a man against his father,

a daughter against her mother,

a daughter—in—law against her mother—in—law—

36 a man's enemies will be the members of his own household [Micah 7:6]

37 Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and anyone who does not take up his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 39 Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it."

He talks about how "You deserve the best..." etc. All feeding into the materialistic American mindset. Jesus preached, "those who are first will be last". Olsteen preaches "you deserve to be first! You never Olsteen talk about humility or meekness. He's about entitlement.

Have you seen the crowds that guy gets? People(sheeple) are looking for something, some kind of meaning to their lives. I don't like him or agree with what he preaches at all, but something has to be said for the amount of people that go to see him.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 357364


The non-judgmental message sells.

Matthew 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Matthew 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

People hate hearing they're going to hell, so a no-hell, love all lovey dovey hippie message sells.

Unfortunately they're on the broad way to destruction, if Joel would preach the Bible he would run at most 500 people.
The masses would leave that guy as fast as your monthly check.

And about what they're looking for:
Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:
Amos 8:12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it.

looks like those days might be coming upon us sooner than people would think.
No one gets fed at Joel Osteens "church", they're starving.

Like some of the "real" Christian preachers out there and the examples they set with their own actions? Yeah right. I think he says what he feels needs to be said, he just doesn't shove it down someone's throat, at least so far he's not fallen into the categories of these "real" preachers, who what? Molest kids? Addicted to porn? The ones doing exact opposite of what they preach, and when their caught cry and weap, as if they truly are repenting, their just sorry they got caught.

Joel Olsteen has made such a negative impact on people's lives? I think not, he's just isn't one of those "your going to hell" preachers unless you do what he thinks the Bible's verses mean".

I agree, at least he might possibly bring people to God in a manner that maybe some people wouldn't even consider listening, because of their current perceptions with religion and church.

With that being said, I don't rely on a preacher nor a church for my faith or my relationship with God.
