Joel Osteen Claims Mormons are Christians - Video

Joel Osteen does not want to "judge the little details of it", so he says that Mormons are Christians. The little details? He admits he has not "studied" or "thought" about it. Maybe he should. It has been clearly demonstrated here that Mormons are not Christians even though they say they are. Do they "believe" in Jesus? Yes, but even the demons believe. What Jesus or what god do they believe in? The Trinity-One God of historic Christianity? No. They believe in many gods. As a matter of fact, they will one day be gods themselves. Guess they do not remember a little episode around an apple tree where someone was promised that she could be "as God".

There are no common bonds between Mormonism and true Christianity.

John MacArthur Rebukes Joel Osteen

In this video, John MacArthur shows how the teaching of Joel Osteen is really satanic. Osteen's message is that we can have it all now - your best life now. As MacArther indicates, that would only be true if one were going to hell.

If one looks at Osteen's "church", it is actually a converted sporting arena that holds over 16,000 at one time. Is this a sign of truth? I think not. When Jesus preached the truth, he actually lost disciples. If you only preach what the people want to hear, they will come. Hitler knew this. He led people by talking about their basest, ugliest desires. Osteen's message is a little prettier, but no more Godly.

Joel Osteen Cannot Say Whether Atheists or If Anyone is Going to Hell

In this video, Joel Osteen is given many opportunities to say that Jesus is the only Way to heaven as is taught by orthodox, historic Christianity:


How are a few verses that indicate that Jesus is the only Way:

(Acts 4:12)  "Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved."
(John 8:24)  "Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."
(1 Cor 3:11)  For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
(1 Tim 2:5)  For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,
(John 14:6)  Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."

There are more, of course. The bible is clear. Jesus is the only Way to the Father (heaven). All others will, sadly, be in hell. We must pray for as many that have ears to hear will hear.

Joel Osteen's Skewed Mission - Video

Joel Osteen says his mission is to help people forgive and to have "right thoughts". Those thousands of individuals that you see in the video need to know they they can be forgiven by the perfect and Holy God by the sacrifice of the Perfect and Holy Son, Jesus Christ. They need to understand that some of their thoughts that are not "right" are sinful and they need a savior. They need forgiveness while learning to forgive others.

If he was a motivational speaker, there would not be such a problem with his "mission". However, he purports to be a minister of the Word of God. Consequently, he should be held to a higher standard. We should be in prayer for him and those that follow him.
