Apparently there was one at Passion City Church in Atlanta today also. Sounds too coincidental for me.

Well, post #2 & 4 have links showing the hecklers being ushered out.

I’ve asked if anyone has a video of the rest of Joel’s sermon, if they wouldn’t mind passing it along, I would sure appreciate it. I’m blessed every Sunday by Joel’s life, heart-felt love, and anointed words of hope, grace, and encouragement.

God bless.

I know, but I didn’t know what the hecklers were saying??
anyway, don’t know his message today but did see on tv the one about not wasting pain.
Look on line you might see something about current messages.

God Bless

by the way, I am Catholic and would never leave my faith..however I do appreciate positive messages from different people

[Larry Lucido]

I speak (and spell) His name freely. He even told us His name in the Bible. He didn’t say not to spell it out.

[Patriot Babe]

What a shame his own father would not approve. His father was a strong man of God who spoke yes of course positive messages but he also preached about Sin and Damnation. Looks like Joel didn’t bother to hear his daddy preaching.

[Tennessee Nana]

Then you weren’t there when John Osteen was the pastor..

None of the idiocy went on back then...

[phillyfanatic]

Great points and yet the media and the Church in general will go to the overused word, love as to his views on our culture and his interpretation of the Word. He to me, another pastor on this site, think he is not preaching the Word as the Book of John or anything written by Paul wrote.

[Jan_Sobieski]

Every thing I have posted is true. All you have to do is look on Google or Youtube. My unrepentant Homosexual friend, whom I have witnessed to and tried to point to Jesus, loves Lakewood. If you cannot see through Joel Osteen in his 10 million dollar mansion, how will you see through the Anti-Christ when He comes?

Jeremiah 6: 13 For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them every one is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely. 14 They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly , saying , Peace, peace; when there is no peace. 15 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed , neither could they blush : therefore they shall fall among them that fall : at the time that I visit them they shall be cast down , saith the LORD.

[Texas4ever]

ok, I will take a look. Looking through someone because they have a Mansion is not for us to judge. Is he unrepentant because of Homosexuality? Read Romans...all of it not just chapter 1.

[Catsrus]

Your faith should be in the Lord Jesus Christ, NOT some church.

[Texas4ever]

I don’t even know where to start:

Google, Joel Olsteens mansion?
Joel Olsteen lies?
Joel Olsteen teaches only good things, not repentance?

[Ditter]

We have some very good friends who adore Olsteen, I am very sorry to hear this. They are such devout Christian people.

I have never been to his church but I have seen him on TV and I am turned off by his manner.

[wastoute]

He also said to leave alone they who preach in his name for they are not against us. It is a fine line and way above my pay grade. I would repeat Paul’s advice about discernment. As I once told a JW, how can you pin your hopes on grace if the man on the cross was not God? There is one throne. It’s His, he made it and then paid for it. Ask John. All things were made through Him.

[Jan_Sobieski]

Honestly, the mansion is the least of my worries about this man. Amongst all the things he is not doing, he is not preparing people for the last days. Judgment looms on America because of our sins and he keeps preaching "your best life now"?!?! How about repent, for the judgment of God draws near! How about warning Americans to turn from sin, and cling to Jesus Christ before its too late! Will Joel Osteen lament the Supreme Court Decision? Will he warn the Sodomites of 1 Cor 6:9? Of course not...

Joel Osteen, and many other TV preachers/prophets are a test from God Himself. A test America is failing...

2 Peter 2: 1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. 2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. 3 And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not. 4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned , but cast them down to hell , and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; 5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly; 6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly; 7 And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: 8 (For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) 9 The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished

The ol’ web will provide you some info......

[Jan_Sobieski]

Will Joel Osteen stand against the Mayor of Houston whom he publicly supports? Will he condemn Sodomite Marriage and publicly announce 1 Cor 6:9 that no Homosexual will inherit the kingdom of Heaven? Unfortunately, no he will not. Will he warn Americans of God's impending judgment because of codifying the sin of Sodom? No... He is not a true preacher of the Gospel, he is a hireling (or worse)...

2 Cor 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? 15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? 16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said * , I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate , saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, 18 And will be * a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons * and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

[Jan_Sobieski]

I have read his books, listened to his sermons, and know for myself that all of these things are true! Why did he deny that Jesus is the only way on national television? And then have to clarify it to his church? Please listen to truth and reason...

[AppyPappy]

“Many have found God because of his ministries.”

A god maybe.

[Texas4ever]

I know what truth is. I really do. Your on the wrong side, he is not the devil. This is accusing the brother. Instead pray for him and his church and stop dividing.
One church prays in tongues are they evil?
One church doesn’t have music are they wrong? evil?
One church says you must be Baptized by water, the other not so much....are they wrong...evil? are they not on any other word giving “reason”, “truth”?

Galatians 6
Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. 2 Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. 3 For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. 4 But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. 5 For each one shall bear his own load.

Be Generous and Do Good

6 Let him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.

7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. 8 For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. 9 And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. 10 Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

[wastoute]

I know nothing of Osteen and his ministry. Discernment requires care. Anyone teaching “some other gospel” should be avoided.
