If he really preached "the word" the world would hate him too. Well, that doesn't quite cut it, for this thread is about not liking him, so that theory is blown. And that also doesn't go for the other preachers out there that are pathetic in their own actions, for indeed many dislike them for their own hypocracy of what they "say" compared to what they "do". Comparing that weiner to Jesus is ridiculous!! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 914422 United States 07/08/2010 08:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I love Joel Osteen. Snakes like him crack me up. I saw him on Larry King with his wife, and when asked why he's so rich and if he thinks it's ok to be as rich as he is while in the service of the Lord, he said --- YES, I SHOULD BE THIS RICH. He gave an answer along the lines that "God wants us to enjoy the fruits" and "He wants his Leaders to be taken care of." To me, he's a success story. He's swindled thousands, earned millions, enjoys the adoration of a flock of mindless follwers, he's created his own Brand[TM]. He's an American success story and a businessman, that's it. |

In 1963, at the age of two, Victoria moved with her family to Houston, Texas when her father took a position with the National Aeronautical and Space Administration (NASA). She grew up in a southern suburb of Houston, near the Manned Spacecraft Center (now known as the Johnson Spacecraft Center). [link to en.wikipedia.org] Wernher Magnus Maximilian Freiherr[1] von Braun (March 23, 1912 – June 16, 1977) was a German-American rocket physicist, astronautics engineer, and space architect, becoming one of the leading figures in the development of rocket technology in Germany and the United States. Wernher von Braun was said to be the preeminent rocket engineer of the 20th century.[2] In his 20s and early 30s, von Braun was the central figure in Germany's pre-war rocket development program, responsible for the design and realization of the deadly V-2 combat rocket during World War II. After the war, he and some of his rocket team were taken to the United States as part of the then-secret Operation Paperclip. In 1955, ten years after entering the country, von Braun became a naturalized U.S. citizen. [link to en.wikipedia.org] She got a promotion! Current activities(per wiki) Osteen serves as the co-Pastor of Lakewood Church. There she teaches and participates in every worship service. Her part of the service is not broadcast throughout most of the world; however, she can be seen on the special one-hour program broadcast on the Daystar Television Network and on the live internet feed available on Lakewood.cc and JoelOsteen.com. Osteen founded the Lakewood Church Women’s Ministry in 2003. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 14206251 United States 04/12/2012 01:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | FOR BLIND ZIO-CHRISTIANS "To allege that "Jesus was a jewish" in the sense that during His lifetime Jesus professed and practiced the form of religious worship known and practiced under the modern name of "Judaism" is false and fiction of the most blasphemous nature. If to be a so- called or self-styled "jewish" then or now the practice of "Judaism" was a requirement, then Jesus certainly was not a so-called "jewish". Jesus abhorred and denounced the form of religious worship practiced in Judea in His lifetime and which is known and practiced today under its new name "Judaism". That religious belief was then known as "Pharisaism". The Christian clergy learned that in their theological seminary days but they have never made any attempt to make that clear to Christians." I did not write the above but am responding to it and who posted it: Ok kiddo, I'm about to rebuke your erroneous idea of what kind of a jewish Jesus was when He walked earth as a man. First off: I'm a Jewish believer. Jesus was the absolute TOTAL jewish OF jewish people !!!! He was against the Pharisees, et al., because they were practicing......guess what? Kabballah. They were just like the secret societies of our time, professing to love God while secretly worshipping the devil. No matter what brand of the occult one is in, it all ties back to satan. Masons, Opus Dei, Church of Rome, Kabbalah......all branches of the same evil tree. Jesus was a REAL jewish when He was a man, the perfect example of what Israel's God meant for the jewish to be. He also had the grace to graft in the Greek, if you get my drift, the Gentiles. Born again Gentiles are now "jewish people". It's all about believing in faith in Israel's God (and He has so many names so I'll just say YHWH here). So we now have a spiritual Israel made up of grafted in, believing Gentiles and believing jewish people, plus the actual physical Israel run by apostate jewish people. BTW Israel has over 31,000 Jewish believers,, as the Holy Spirit moves to convert. If you know your prophecy, you know 'all Israel shall be saved' after the purging of Jacob's Trouble, the Tribulation. Many will perish, some will not believe and follow antichrist, some will walk into the Millenium in physical bodies. He has a remnant going folks, I'm one of them, and more are coming into the flock daily. Jesus, Yashua ha Mashiach.......King of the jewish people. Don't attempt to take His Jewishness away. He sat in the Temple at 12 and traded words with learned rabbis who believed in and were waiting for the coming of Messiah....not knowing He was right in front of them. He kept all the feast, Sabbaths, Passover, etc., under his earthly caretakers until He was 30. He kept the law perfectly and never sinned. Many jewish people believed on Him! It was the political fake religious bunch (closet satanists) that plotted against Him. Believe me, when a jewish comes to the Lord, they really get it. I mean, they understand the Jewishness of Jesus even more. As for Osteen, yowza, wouldn't surprise me if one day his face fell off and a reptilian was underneath. I hear he locks down his unholy 'church' once the show starts. what does this tell us? |

Quoting: GP 167647 Osteen is a different kind of televangelist . . . I think people see him less as a religious prophet, and more as a spiritual motivator. His manner is softer, kind, rather gentle as opposed to the hellfire & brimstone kind of overly-judgmental preachy preaching. |

Israel Man User ID: 14206251 United States 04/12/2012 01:42 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The discussion is circular. We have people who SEE what Osteen is, and we have people DECEIVED as to who Osteen is. Judge? You bet. It's our duty as the Body of Christ to be on the alert for deceivers, lest we be taken in by their lies. Then, to expose them to others so they don't get taken in. Mercy and judgment, the Lord told me, is my ministry. We true believers will judge (fallen) angels someday.......how much more so humans need to be looked at through the lens of Scripture? My last comment...those of you defending this man are Biblically illiterate and/or not saved. Period. He is not enriching anyone for the Kingdom. He is enriching himself. Most of those people pay dearly to hear his false taching. I'd respect him if he changed up his theme, took Jesus out of it (Jesus ain't in it now anyway) and just promoted himself as a Norman Vincent Peale type. There's tons of wiccans and such going there, I can't even abide this topic anymore. May the Lord unstop the ears and open the eyes of the blind in these last hours of world history. |

The great falling away is here, and the two wittness' are soon to be if not already dead in the street. The deceivers are sending "gifts" to each other in triumph of their deception as they all preach the same deception and promote each other into the realms of wealth and success for the part they play to destroy the True Church of God, by flattery this time, as persecution had an opposite effect and caused the Church to grow. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 13494422 Cameroon 04/12/2012 02:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When he begins giving all that wealth to the poor/needy and healing the sick, I may reconsider. Didn't Jesus say "you (true believers) will do even greater things than I" ? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 162364 Agree!!! There is a big surprise waiting for these preachers they telling jokes and selling there books and forgets about the poor the lost and the homeless the Lazarus on street. I wonder what he will do if Jesus tell him to sell everything. |
Dease User ID: 1505901 United States 07/04/2012 08:18 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You are on to something here friend. The facts are undeniable. 1.) He rakes in millions, and lives like a king. I mean, God wants us to have our needs met and be happy, but there's a point where it becomes excessive. He could be giving to the poor, what God would want him to do. 2.) Lakewood has homosexual church members who do not feel convicted to repent of their behavior. When questioned about homosexuality, Osteen told Oprah he believed homosexuals would go to Heaven. The Bible tells us homosexuality is clearly an abominaiton. 3.)He uses motivational messages about prosperity, versus messages about Jesus Christ. If you listen to his sermons, he rarely quotes scripture. Everything is so heavily watered down, as not to "offend" people. It's more about being happy, rich (yes, I said rich), and successful than being SAVED. The reason his church is so big is because people can attend with NO conviction. He does not talk about repenting of your sins or changing your ways. You are made to feel good, and go home. Jesus' word is uncomprimising. Yes, there is love and forgiveness. But, we are also called to live by God's comandments. Last Edited by Dease on 07/06/2012 01:33 AM "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." - Matthew 22: 37-39 "What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?" - Galatians 5: 22-23 |
