Osteen has never preached a sermon in his life.

The fact that someone says he has preached a good one hows how clueless modern day Christianity is.

Becareful Gerald. If I was person who got offended easy I would be offended by your statement here.

I was there. It was good sermon, people that I was with that night got saved and are saved to this day.

Also, for the record, the offering that night went straight to Katrina Fund he did not even take it for himself.

You may not like him or anyone else for that matter but to say I am clueless is, to me, an attack on my faith. I would be far from clueless. I don't follow his ever move, I went one night enjoyed it and saw fruits of his labor.

Not meant personally KB, but it IS a sad state of Christianity, of Christian understanding and Biblical knowledge that allows an empty headed, feel good, be all that you can be, positive confession, speak and it'll be motivational speaker to be a prominent "Minister"

Ok I can watch Joel from time to time because he seems to be a motivational type guy. I think that is the issue that he is more a motivational speaker rather then a preacher yet though I disagree with his method because he chooses to leave out doctrine and such but I have heard him preach about Christ and if people are saved then he preached.

You all know how I am about preaching the whole bible and the whole "prosperity ministry, healing ministry or positve thinking ministry" I dont agree with but that does not mean he is not preaching or that souls are not getting saved, so who am I to judge him, that is God's Job. There is no one ministry we are to preach the entire gospel. It is easy to tell very positive things all the time like "dont get mad in traffic just smile and go by" but I want to hear the word of God preached. So I am thankful for all the souls that have been saved under his ministry .

I've seen him a few times on TV (clips not entirely) and I too got the motivational speaker vibe. It wasn't what he said.. but something with the delivery sets off my meter. I know a few mv and one specifically that shares my front/last name.

The rest I am clueless.

I have no doubt that if the story of Christ as presented in scipture is presented then people can be saved.

But in Osteens realm, what are they then saved to? A Pastor who's money motivation has placed him on the cover of TIME with the direct realtion of wealth and Christianity?

This man didn't even have the intelligence to differentiate between the Jesus of the Bible and the "Devils Brother Jesus" of the Mormons when asked on Larry King.

Is Jesus the same as "The Devils Brother Jesus"?

In Osteens mind because you claim Jesus, it dosent matter how the entity Jesus is defined.

This is Common among the WOF crowd: Preach God was a man, Jesus wasnt God, it's all okay!

In his defense, I really didn't know too much about morman teaching before it came up so much in the presidential campaign. Perhaps he was like most people and really didn't know much about them other than they have a really boring Bible sequel.
