I will make a startling admission to my readers. You might want to sit down for this massive, earth-shattering confession!
I have never, ever trusted, believed, or liked Joel Osteen or his Satan-led, Serpent-pleasing, sugar-coated, snake oil message. There has never, ever been a doubt in my mind regarding his true allegiance.
I have taken grief from many for my views. I have been called judgmental. I have been told I have no right to question that “fine man of God”. I have been told to check for a log in my own eye.
But ladies and gentlemen – Joel Osteen (and his wife Victoria) have repeatedly given every evidence, from a biblical perspective, for genuine believers to witness that the couple have far more than a splinter in their eye – they have a dozen tractor-trailer loads of garbage hanging out of their eyes (and mouths)! Jesus said if we acknowledge (confess) Him before men, He will confess us before our Heavenly Father, but if we do NOT acknowledge Him… You get the point.
Time any again, Osteen has had a very public stage to profess, acknowledge, and show forth that Jesus Christ is Lord. That Jesus is THE Way, THE Truth, and THE Light.. That NO man can come to the father, but by Jesus alone. This comes directly from the very Word of God that Osteen professes to preach… despite such a drought of even a complete verse from scripture gracing his lips as he spews his prosperity-gospel bile. Time and again, Osteen has even stated that he cannot say for sure that Jesus is the only way!
But recently, news has been made (and the truth about the Osteens been very publicly spotlighted) by what his wife Victory has stated.
What did she say? She tried to temper her statement, but there really is no hiding the self-serving, self-centered mission – both personal and organizationally of the Osteen circus.
But lets be brutally honest – tens of thousands (some numbers as high as 30,000) “worship” at the Osteen Temple on a weekly basis. Countless millions outside that building, across this nation, and around the world, hang on every word that drips from Joel and Victoria’s mouths. Undoubtably, there are many of the “faithful masses” of Osteen disciples who have professed Jesus Christ as Lord. Sadly, one has to wonder how a supposedly born-again Christian can swallow the anti-Christian bile that the Osteens hurl. But one only has to open scripture to see a resounding and clear explanation that would be wise for us all to ponder on, pray on, and remind others of:
