I don’t know why people subscribe to that crap?
What does he need one for?
Shouldn’t God be beaming directly, just for him?
“Pastor”...lol
**SIGH** another pride fight is coming on. Always assuming the worst side of anything not spoken exactly the way you you think you ought to hear it.
Another wolf in sheep’s clothing, nothing to see here, move along.
But how can they see him constantly smile on radio?
Jesus came to me. Jesus came to me and said, 'Benny, I am going to send you to the heavens.' Wow! Can you believe it? He told me that there is a planet a few dozen light years - that's the distance light travels in one year, that's a light year, and it's a long way. He said this planet, and he gave me the name, Zeta Reticuli, and I spoke to astronomers and they confirmed that there is a planet named that out there. Jesus said, 'I am going to send you there, and you are going to preach my glory.' I asked the Lord, how I was going to go there, and he said, 'Those space ships in Texas that people have been seeing, they're coming for you.'"

Which all ties in nicely with the Pope baptizing aliens!
The film Elmer Gantry (1960) was made to warn people (suckers) about the likes of Olsteen. There is an article in the National Enquirer that suggest Olsteen was born female. It makes you wonder.
This is a JOKE, son, I say, a JOKE
The bible warns of “EVIL SUSPICIONS”... you might be able to figure out where such ideas come from.
Criticize a theological argument till kingdom come, offering something better in its place. But this ad hominem stuff is the cheapest of cheap shots.
Maybe... GASP... he does not CARE?
A damned shame. I heard an interview with Joel on the radio this morning. The interviewer asked Joel the hard question about his stand on homosexuality. Joel sidestepped the question. Can’t be judgemental or condemn the sin - it would be bad for ratings.
The old gospel approach... get people to know the Lord, then He will automatically with power show and help them a better way to live... is really WEAK isn’t it? No, we got to HELP the Lord with our self efforts!
If self effort could bring down this plague of homoism, it would have done so long ago. SOMETHING BETTER IS NEEDED.
He’s orthodox, yet he is choosing his battles.
It would be but I dont really focus on a lot of those things, Osteen said. I try to stay in my lane of what I feel called to do. [The topic] does come up in interviews and things thats not my core message.
Osteen explained that his core message is helping people let go of their pasts, reach their dreams, have a healthy self-image and raise good children. While homosexuality is part of addressing life issues, the pastor said he doesnt want to be defined by his views on the issue.
Everybodys welcome, but my take on it is, you know, its easy to make one issue to become known for that or to let it side track your message, he said. If you look at our congregation .. we all have issues, everybodys on a journey.
LOL do you have a link for that one?
