No surprises here, he is a motivational speaker, not a pastor and definitely not a christian.

How can a supposed man of God say Jesus is not the only way when the bible explicitly mentioned that Jesus is the only way and that no one cometh to the father except through Christ?

Joel Antichrist Osteen.

Topgainer:
They will dirty the place and occupy the space, thus preventing genuine students of his Lecture theatre from attending classes. Joel Osteen runs a successful inspiration-talking center, a very eloquent man, supposedly filled with wisdom on how to corner the rich depressed souls and disposes them of their hard currency.
He knows very well the cost implications of housing those multitude, like his Nigerian counterparts in motivational speaking, he knows a week without one or two programs at the Center will mean a loss in millions of dollars revenue.
And it is uncertain how long these new occupants will stay. It is not an easy decision, were it not that as a pastor, he is expected to live an exemplary life of selflessness, allowing one's business premises to be overrun by refuges is not a simple thing.

Empiree:
Next thing you hear soon is "Osteen denies report closing doors on Hurricane victims".

And they would arrange "victims" he "helped" to speak to the media. It is politics .

Fact is. He is under no obligation to accommodate victims of natural disaster

LifestyleTonite:
He's under an obligation to accommodate such people as long as he calls himself a Christian.

Galatians 6:2

2 Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ


It is this Christian virtue that makes Christian Europe to accept muslim refugees, otherwise the continent would have shut its doors in retaliation to how Islamic countries persecute the few Christians in their country.

Empiree:
If i may ask you, what's islam and muslims have to do with this?. Why did you bring this in?.

Anyways, he is under no obligation. What you said is under religious and moral conviction. If he chooses not to he is not blameworthy under constitutional laws. But he may be sinning and morally bankrupt from religion perspective.


I am surprised that you talked "law of christ". I thought christians said Jesus eradicated laws and everyone is free to do as pleases?

LOL

THIS IS RIDICULOUS!

THESE SAME "REFUGEES" ARE THE ONES WHO TITHE IN YOUR CHURCH EVERYTIME.
THEY'RE THE ONES WHOSE OFFERINGS YOU DWELL ON.
THEY MADE YOU MEGA RICH, MAN, YOU WOULDN'T HAVE BUILT THAT CHURCH WITHOUT THEM.. NOW THEY'RE "REFUGEES" AND SHOULDN'T BE SAVED BECAUSE THEY'LL DIRTY YOUR PROPERTY!

WHO CAN ENDURE AND SWALLOW SUCH LOAD OF GOATSHIT APART FROM GULLIBLE, TOTALLY DELUDED RELIGIOUS PEOPLE?

CAPSLOCKED:




YOU THINK WHAT HE DID IS SHIIIT...
UNTIL YOU SEE THE PATHETIC REASON HE GAVE FOR HIS ACTIONS.

LifestyleTonite:
@Last sentence

where did we say Jesus ordered everyone to do as they pleased?

hahn:


What's the reason?

HE LIKES HIS PROPERTY NEAT!


ON TWITTER HE OFFERED "THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS" TO THE VICTIMS.


I WONDER WHY HE DOESN'T ACCEPT THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS INSTEAD OF TITHES AND OFFERINGS!

Empiree:
Your christian doctrine is self sufficient to explain that to you. What is Jesus's law of punishment of blasphemy, adultery, fornication, killing and murder, homosexual. Answer this please. You have said Jesus has laws so answer am

LifestyleTonite:
The punishment comes at the Judgment Day. If you decide to punish such people now, your own sins will prevent you cos you are not holy as well. That in no way endorses or encourages such sins.

An2elect2:
I agree with you. He is not under any obligation to help because he isn't a Christian just a phoney one

Empiree:
@bold is your opinion

He is a true christian

Empiree:
CONTRADICTION!

You just contradicted yourself. So why did you quote that verse of yur bible about Jesus's law?. Laws are meant to be implemented right here on earth. If we are to apply your level of reasoning, then, you have no right to kill ritualists, thieves, so called witchcrafts whom you subjected to jungle justices when yourselves aren't free of all the accusations. Also you have no right to blame terrorists. Get the logic?. Keep deceiving yourself

Empiree:
@bold is your opinion

He is a true christian

An2elect2:
A true Christian hears his master's voice and follow him but a wolf won't John 10:27

The master said He is the only way, his sheep obey. Dogs, pigs like Joel osteen won't.

Empiree:
Talk is cheap. Quotation is cheap. If famous and richest nigerian pastors and bishops that you people hallow all the time were tested like Joel Osteen, they would fail as well. But i wonder if you would suddenly claim they aren't christian?. That brings this question; do you actually have true christ followers at all?

LifestyleTonite:
He is not a true Christian cos he disobeyed the command of Master Jesus by not loving fellow Christian who needed help.

John 13:34-35

“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

Empiree:
Like it or not, he is a christian. You only want to attribute good things to christianity. Anyways, sounds like muslims are more christians than christians themselves. It is muslims who shelter hurricane victims.
