No, I’m a Prottie and have a very personal relationship with God. When I see these threads telling me...or others... that people like the Osteens shouldn’t be listened to, it grates on me.
Scripture is pretty harsh on false preachers. Does that grate on you too? Tells us to be discerning.
Like I said, it’s between you and God.
Prisoner, he said he would attend a homosexual "wedding." There's nothing right about that, so why on earth would a Christian not call it out?
I agree. Osteen preaches often about abundance and the rewards of faith. It sure is a refreshing change of message from the lib churches that indirectly vilify wealth and success, and happiness for that matter. I may not hear everything I like from the Osteens, but Joel is uplifting.
