My whole life I have listened to what I feel are closed-minded pastors who talk more about gays, muslims, rock music, etc. than actually talk about God and his love. This mans message, I feel, has really brought me closer to God. Sin is something that does need to be discussed, but it's just as important as anything else, and I hate to listen to hypocritical pastors calling everyone sinners. Joel Osteen is great.
evidently we need Joel Osteens input in our lives...Who does not need understanding, encouragement, personal experiences expressed to identify by,etc...This is good truth if you don't want to hear it or not!

OMG: Rylucero--You are way tooooooo much. Unlike, Joel who chooses NOT to judge, because HE is NOT GOD--YOU choose to do so.
YOU are NOT GOD and you have no idea who will go to heaven--perhaps it will NOT be people who sit around all day criticizing those who choose NOT to judge.
I would suggest that you take the board out of YOUR eye, before you attempt to take a splinter out of others. And why don't you have your own site, instead of bothering people on Joel's?
The quotable false Prophet Joel Osteen on Larry King Live, King asks Joel, What if you're Jewish or Muslim, you don't accept Christ at all? Osteen then responds, you know, I'm very careful about saying who would and wouldn't go to heaven. I don't know. Joel Osteen by his very words denies that acceptance of Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior is the only way that salvation is possible for the unbeliever.
The quotable false Prophet Joel Osteen on Larry King Live, King asks Joel, if you believe you have to believe in Christ? They're wrong, aren't they? Osteen then responds, Well, I don't know if I believe they're wrong. But I just think that only God will judge a person's heart. I spent a lot of time in India with my father. I don't know all about their religion. But I know they love God. Joel by his own ignorance or deceit equates the god(s) of Hinduism with that of the Lord Jesus Christ!
The quotable false Prophet Joel Osteen on Larry King Live, King asks Joel, how about issues that the church has feelings about? Abortion? Same-sex marriages? Osteen responds, Yeah. You know what, Larry? I don't go there. King asks, you don't call them sinners? Osteen responds, I don't. King later asks, is that a word you don't use? Osteen responds back, I don't use it.. Although, Joel doesnt use it, the word "sin" appears in the King James Version of the Bible hundreds of times!
@k0smon Osteen teaches the Gospel of Wealth. This is also known as the Demon's Doctrine. His feel good SPEECHES are no more sermons than the globe in his "church" is a cross.
@k0smon Preaching the Word of God is not a popularity contest. I don't care how popular he is or who listens to him. It's obvious he is not leading people to heaven. If you can't see that, I feel pity for your soul.
"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables."
@liquidmotion10 ;;; It is not obvious to me that he is not leading people to heaven. I think we need to listen to the testimony of the listener first before we make any pre- judgements. It is your judgmental attitude that is the pity
@k0smon I am not judging anyone. I'm simply pointing out what is in plain sight. I'm not going to argue with you. If you want to believe he is preaching the Word in its entirety, then go ahead, but that still doesn't make it true.
@liquidmotion10 I do not say he is preaching 'the Word' in its entirety. His preaching is directed to Christians who want to live a better life. I do not have the respect for 'the Word' as you do. I agree with Bart Ehrman that it is the word of man, not the word of God.
@k0smon So, if you're not a Christian, then how can you claim to know anything about whether or not Osteen's teachings are of a sound doctrine? Sounds to me like you're just an unholy person supporting another unholy person. Osteen teaches that following God will you bring you earthly riches and glory. The glory is to be to God. And the wealth is that of everlasting life, not monetary value.
@liquidmotion10 I am a former Christian, and did not lose my memory when I gave up Jesus. I am a spiritual person as is Joel Osteen. Agree with the wealth of the afterlife,; you can have both.
@k0smon Because whoever you depended on to save you wasn't Jesus Christ.
You like all people are a sinner. We have all broken Gods Law, an examination of the ten commandments will prove this. Without the forgiveness that only Christ can give you will go to hell. This is what you need to be saved from.
@joeforHistruth ::: Christ can't give me anything. What I have received, I received directly from the Father, the all powerful and perfect Creator of the universe. Being all-powerful, He needs no help from saviors or holy spirits.
@k0smon and a sermon is a speech given by a prophet or member of clergy, not necessarily to a church audience. And Joel Osteen is NOT a prophet, priest, minister, or even follower of God.
@liquidmotion10 True he is not a prophet, or a priest, but he is a minister and a follower of God. To accuse Joel of not being a follower of God just shows how clouded your judgement is.
y s someppl so focused on evil side of odrs thn d hope in dat person..clearly talks volumes of the persn who judges oders..tht too judgn a anointd persn...goodmorning buddy
It is our place as believers to speak the truth regarding condemnation, hell, judgment and sin. Those who are placed in positions of Spiritual Authority and claim to be followers of Jesus Christ are called by God to speak for Him and to be His messenger. A true follower of God would speak of repentance, condemnation, judgment, sin, and eternal torment. These are the things that prophets of God do, but that Joel Osteen as a false prophet does not.
Remember leaders of different Christian sects, the will of God is undivided Christianity. Give up your churches, no more Catholic, Protestants, Adventist, JW etc. If you think that I am wrong then prove that you are right. Ive asked the Lord for the two simultaneous explosion of volcano in the U.S. within this month of December, pray that it wouldnt happen, if despite of your prayer it does happen, then know that God is with me therefore you have to listen to me.
I'm returning to work for the first time today after losing my grandmother last weekend and attending her funeral earlier this week. The time off allowed me to reflect with my family and myself.
After watching this, thank you again for posting it, I realized that I too had a thought of, "if my job would only allow me to do this, I'd be happy and if i could just make this much more money, I wouldn't be stressed out."
I woke almost 45 minutes before my alarm this morning and didn't know why.
Thank you for taking the time to record this and and upload it, moreso however, thank you for the thought and intention behind it. I needed to hear this today; I've needed to hear it for quite a while. It's funny, at first I was going to switch to a different sermon because of the quality of the recording, but something told me not to change it. As I watched, i realize that I too, was right where I was supposed to be. Not only in life, but at 5:30 this morning:)

@liquidmotion10 Sounds to me like it is called the gospel of spiritual growth. Did you name that demon doctrine thingy yourself? Catchy!
A sermon is a speech, specifically for a church audience.
He is the most popular preacher in the country. Sounds like he doesn't need input from either one of us.

Unbelief in Christ means you are under Gods' judgment now. You don't want that. Repent!
