Exactly what does that mean? I would say that means we give our best in all our life, we trust God, and we treat people with love. If you love people and encourage them you are doing the Lord's work
Grew up at Lakewood Church and honestly this church holds some of the most amazing people. Critics will say this and that, but that’s why they are where they are. Joel’s leadership under God has produced so much great fruit and it cannot be denied. But I guess those who know, know.
I have believed in God all my life. The only mistake Joel Osteen made here was to get interviewed by a man who did not care about Joel Osteen. Not even Jesus would have sat in front of this man because it would have been foolish. Larry had an agenda, Larry was not searching for the truth. Joel Osteen is being talked down to and he is trying to remain peaceful. Joel Osteen, I believe, actually cared for Larry more than Larry cared for himself. Caring for Larry was Joel Osteen’s cross to carry at that moment. Joel never went to seminary but he listened and obeyed his father, for all his life. King David loved and obeyed his father, he was blessed by God. People are mad because Joel is “not man enough,” but the Pharisees (like Steve Lawson from “Grace” Church Sun Valley) tried to corner Jesus many times and Jesus never gave them what they wanted. The Pharisees were not hungry for the truth, they wanted controversy. I believe that Joel Osteen is representing God’s Grace. After all, it was not our goodness that saved us, but it was God’s Grace. Joel Osteen is a product of being raised in a grace filled house. God bless.
@@utoobfan7203 well by Joel's Actions saying that he did not know what it meant to be saved and you don't have to be saved to go to Heaven, he is leading people astray. Do you know what God said about leading his people astray.. 🤔 Well I have to say no more his actions speak louder than words. All he preaches about its prosperity, not salvation. Get out of here with that, Joe ha's use the name of Jesus to profit off of and it is pitiful. All we can do is pray for him. God tells us "Buy the fruit of their spirit they will be known". IMHO Joel has sum soul searching as most of these big money pastors with all the money coming in it is temptation. And temptation, once conceived turns into lust which manifest into sin. #Facts
Notice when he was asked how he prepares his sermons, he said “I” figure out what “I” want to talk about. Most pastors will pray first and ask God what HE wants me to preach about.
ElSpewtardo I agree with that. Not enough of Fear of the Lord in these type of mega church sermons. We miss the fact that Jesus IS the judge yet we don’t say His name enough. Biblical preaching (more like teaching) is best.
In compassion, I say...we truely need to pray for him and his family ...that God will bring truth..breaks my heart...deception is going on in their lives....tears for him.
Joel is not comfortable being interviewed. He is not able to Express himself on the spur of the moment. He is humble and knows to keep guard on his flesh. He and his staff pray for wisdom to put God first.
@@g.m.c.6606 how wasn't he able to answer the questions not believe, he suppose to took Larry to the scripture. He couldn't even answer how God deals with all of us. God is omnipresent! How simple is that. No he can' t make us read our bible, but as he stated he is a pastor, which is one of the gifts from God, therefore when God gives us a gift he equips us to use that gift in saving souls. Was it his Hob to convince Larry to follow the Lord no, but it is his job to let someone like Larry know that he was sure of the "God" he served and how people of the world view him was a myth. Either Larry is not a believer of he is a believer and want to see where Hole stood with God, either way he made a foil out of him.
@@g.m.c.6606 the bible tells us to guard our hearts with the scriptures, therefore every question he answered was suppose to be supported with a passage from the scripture.
@@wjmckay1946 No, he isn’t humble at all, he just pray a gospel that satisfies the lister, a gospel that tell people how they are going to get rich if they listen to him or go to his church, Joel and his family needs a lot of prayer, I recommend you to listen to Paul Washer, he preaches the true gospel of Jesus Christ, not how to feel better, but how to go to heaven.
He is giving sugar instead of teaching the truth in love and when the world loves you don’t rejoice because the world hated Jesus why would they love you. I pray that God touches his heart and reveals himself to Him, because that’s a lot of souls that will be lost if he doesn’t share the truth along with the encouragement.

He seems to b detached from the deep meaning of the scriptures which the Holy Spirit teaches.He keeps referring to himself:" I can't understand it all"I feel that I have experienced God". There's something that's totally off.
Bro. Joel's sermons helped me so much when I was sick, & it looked like I wasn't going to make it. I had been a Christian for a long time. I used to think it was my job to tear down other Christians because they were different than me. That kind of critical Christianity won't help you when you when you're critically sick & not expected to live. Only a message of love will rescue you. Joel's sermons helped me pull thru. 8 yrs. later, I well & healthy. Joel's sermons helped me to love other Christians. Now, I'm ashamed of attacking other Christians. I thought I knew it all, but I was a fool. I'll always love bro. Joel.

He’s for “everybody?” I know Jesus didn’t discriminate and that he ate with sinners, but he also taught those who continued to live in darkness to move away from darkness and into light. Jesus is the light, and he taught by example.

Joel preaches to an audience who wants to hear what they want to hear and that's what he feeds off of. He doesn't want to offend anybody so his teachings are based on happiness and reaching your dreams; he needs to touch more on subjects that hit hard and hit home.
so much criticism and hatred for Joel in the comments this worst critics are other Christians, bar-none I think he is find doing what he does, God can be his judge. he preaches a positive message, can't ask for much more
Why are people hating on him ? He tries his best to help people by motivating them and obviously nobody knows the answers to all questions. What I appreciate is that he is more open minded and inclusive than other pastors I know.
You answered your own question. He's a motivational speaker, not a pastor. Jesus Christ was not open-minded and inclusive. His message was not inviting. He said "I am God, I am the truth. Repent and follow Me or you will perish in the lake of fire." Being God, He knew more than anyone how dire the situation was. He preached true repentance. Joel Osteen does not. That's why he is so despised by true born-again Christians.
@@ryansimmons7738 through love and kindness I have drawn thee God says in the Bible no one knows who's going to get in heaven some you think will be there won't be there and if you come off to people as offensive you cannot draw them towards Christ and even being defensive the choice is ours and I'm sure God has given many the right words and the right preachers before Joel's team even makes these statements they've already heard and for one who's hearing he's very kind and he would draw you toward him and with the right teachings after you've been drawn to Christ you can learn the rest through other measures and preachers and methods and the Bible itself is the best teacher. Leave Joel alone
I love Joel Osteens ministry he brings me to tears a lot and melts my icey heart at times. He may not have all of the perfect answers or words but he is kind that's the Bible describes through love and kindness I have drawn thee and I believe that he uses Joel osteen's kindness and love toward others to draw them closer to Christ and the rest God will do himself some plant some water than some increase Joel Osteen can't do it all but he is loving and kind to draw you to Christ and we also have the Bible where we can help ourselves he is not the answer for it all but he is One of God's representatives I believe and he can't have all of the answers you are looking for he is just trying to please everyone is the only wrong answer he is giving. You can't be a people pleaser. Why do everyone seek to pick him apart because he seemingly to be so perfect I believe
@@boldbeautiful2040 the same bible also rightfully says "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to be welcomed into the Kingdom of God."
This guy always preaches what he thinks and feels and not what scripture says.He doesn't quote scripture when he preaches.He is a motivational speaker not a preacher.He has a large following because he is telling people what they want to hear and not what is truth.
Because he's a feel good preacher. He specifically dosen't want to offend anyone. God's word Offends and pierces like a two edged sword. Jesus Christ the solid ROCK I stand all other ground is sinking sand. He never tells the story of the cross because people would be convicted of their sins and repent. But, most would leave. 30+ thousand in his church most wealthy and don't even know Jesus Christ as their Lord and savior.
He’s a professional positivity spin doctor. If he’s knowledgeable about anything, it’s how to deflect “negativity” and spin it to a positive. Not a bad thing but gullible people shouldn’t be so fooled to profess their faith in a biblical neophyte
If one needs motivation, Joel is the best option, but if they need a biblical sermon, a sermon of repentance and faith, a sermon about Jesus, I don't think he's a good choice. His motivations are good for our normal everyday life, but not our Christian life. Christianity includes both messages on how you live your life here, and how to focus on the life after. But Joel focusing on one, he's a motivation speaker. So he should clarify his followers and church members about that🙏
How you know what Joel is doing? Come on, J.. He does talks about Bible.. listen to his preaching shows. He talk about to be successful Like David, prosper like Abraham, to follow scripture and be after this life in Heaven with Jesus.
@@artgallery7376 we know what he teaches .. any who “doesn’t know” shouldn’t uphold or teach the word of God who all who came before us died gruesome deaths over. Peter, Polycarp etc didn’t say “idk” when they was asked about the gospel they was preaching
@@deandreross4745 Who said " idk "? Nobody says " Idk ". I look at people by their actions; if they preach how Jesus preaching then I'll support and respect them, if not - then not. Joel preaches biblically - so his okay. As humans we have no right to beat people up with our words and judgement.. we see someone doing good things and follows the scripture then we need to respect that person and show that person love, my friend. I'm hugging you and I'm very glad that you're following Jesus, my dear friend. I see you saying good biblical words - so I respect you very much.
An example of a person using their full potential. Anybody else who thinks otherwise, perhaps it's your duty to fill the void. We are all pieces to a greater puzzle in this world, no one person can correct it, but if each individual using their talents and reaching their potential towards a great cause, we would get there. It's not so much what are other people doing, it's what the individual does. Be blessed everyone!
When asked about his "sermon/speeches" he says he writes out what he wants to talk about...not even one does he ask what God wants to say to His church? It is not your church Joel!!!!
I love joel because he understands that the truth is secondary to how we feel on a day to day basis. If you’re looking for truth Christianity is not it. It’s full of contradictions and logical anomalies. Theologians treat the Bible like a legal document always attempting to reconcile their cognitive dissonance around its many inconsistencies. There is a great quote ‘I’ve given up my search for truth and am now looking for a good fantasy’. That’s what this is. It’s a helpful psychological tool that uses the fantasy of god and the Bible as a means to uplift and stay on a positive frequency. And there is nothing wrong with that. Anything else is superstition and superstition is veiled in darkness
@@melissafigueroa4343 I was just trying to prove a point. There will be false prophets in the last days. Over the next 10 years there's going to be lots of the evangelist types getting exposed.
"I believe..." , "I feel...", I just think that..." ??? Can he just say what the Bible says, which is the truth and the only truth; NOT what he believes, feels, thinks!!! You're supposed to preach the Word of GOD Joel!
Well, Christ is revealed to us through the Bible. Not all that's in it is God's Word, but God's Word is in it. And every scripture is for our teaching, whether we learn from the lives others written about in it.
You don't quote the scriptures to a atheist, you have to understand them, make common sense and get them to reason with you. Refer to the bible on how Jesus spoke to the pharises who were even religious people.
Osteen, it seems to me he needs to seek God , when Larry ask him how he gets his message he centered on himself, doesn't he listens to the Holy Spirit in order to know what the spirit of God wants his people to know?
Real talk, my grandma had a copy of your best life now, and i just opened it and started reading it and now i read all the time, it was like a spiritual boost Thank You Joel
This guy is a devil, a false prophet, and draws a multitude of people after him because he smiles and tell them what they want to hear, who doesn't stand on nothing. People who don't bother to read the bible love having itching ears and don't care what the bible says are the ones following these devils straight thell.

Joel Osteen is clearly a man after God's own heart. He cannot and will not be made ashamed. God is his defender. God bless you and your family continuously Joel.
No, David was a man after God's own heart. David was not afraid to stand for God against the giant. he told the giant who his God was and who the victory belonged to. And what does this man Joel do? He gives nothing but sugar cake after sugar cake. Too much sugar can make you sick. There are too many people that walk away from his show that I have spoken to personally that start talking like him and saying "Oh you know there is no difference in the Muslim and the Christian, and we will all go to Heaven together......wrong. Show me the scriptures. The scriptures say there is a Broad way and a Narrow way. Joel is leading the broad way at this point. Where is the conviction, where is Hellfire preaching, where is the preaching against false doctrine, where is the guts, where is the single Glory To God? With Joel, there is NONE. He is a self-loving, compromising jellyfish that will squirm before the presence of the Lord in stern Judgement. God cannot bless false doctrine.
It bothers me he doesnt speak about Jesus, he talks about God, most religions have a god they worship but Christians put their faith and trust in Jesus, joel should not exclude Christ!
Sultan If he did you all would dismiss him anyway and say “another pastor preaching”. Everybody just hate successful people Bruh! It’s disgusting. I like the fact that a Christian is successful. I strive for that. Joel I salute you Brother!!!!! I’m not a follower of yours but I am a Christian and run into the critics. We call him HATERS in the hood Joel😂 Do your thing Brother. This is the only thing.... never put money over your morality or make it a God because its not. Put God First again America. We need him more than ever.
I have studied scripture for many years and God through Joel has opened my understanding for a number of things that had been unclear. At EVERY service Joel gives an invitation for any and all to repent and accept Christ Jesus. He is one of the most faith based (NOT prosperity based as his many critic say) preachers I have ever heard. Jesus said love one another and don't judge each other and Joel certainly is a great example that.
Joel is all class. I wish I would've seen this sooner. I love how humble he is and his tone is even and confident. He doesn't back down, but he isn't offended or defensive.
Joel is a wishy washy Bad Shepherd…he was too evasive standing up forJesus. As he admitted, he doesn’t understand the Bible that much …is there a genuine preacher who doesn’t study the Bible??
Hi @Kym Welton He's not a true man of God, Joel is not allowing the Holy Spirit to lead him. Please stay away from his sermon! He doesn't stay what God teaches. Please pick up the Bible and know God for your self.
He didnt seemd too jazzed about sharing the Gospel with this self professing agnostic WHO IS ASKING QUESTIONS. He admitted it's basically tell the people what they wanna hear. And what do ya know, people like it.
I have so much to say but I agree. did he just say we want to be poor? to be humble listen no one wants to be poor but every sereocmentance has meaning and the Lord will use that time for something great
I watch his Sermons everyday. Hes one of the best Pastors Ive ever seen. His profound message of Love goes way beyond this world of materialism and religious dogma.
"The most watched inspirational figure in America"... People, THIS IS AN IMPOSTOR!!!!! How can a pastor be perfectly fine with the fact that he doesn't preach going scripture by scripture, and even worse, not mention JESUS (YESHUA), the NAME ABOVE ALL NAME, in a 27:54 long video??? What about when he was asked about the 3 things he would bring on a deserted island, and answered his wife and his 2 children, but didn't even think about the Bible? Or again, when Larry King asks him if he believes we'll go up to the sky, and he simply ignores the question by saying that he "believes heaven is a physical place and that he does believe it's up"... But if this guy knew the word of God, here is what he could refer to... Mark 12:25 --> For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. SO YES, WE DO RISE AFTER DEATH!!!!! Hosea 4:6 --> My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. This whole video is so ridiculous, but from 24:00 to 24:35 it just goes downhill... It simply proves that he is what we call a LIFE COACH, or an inspirational speaker!
At 12:38 Joel Osteen declares that he never doubts his faith. That statement alone would disqualify him from any intelligent discussion of religion. Doubt is one of our most valuable assets in this world and acts as a light in areas of uncertainty.
If faith is given to us by Christ and we are saved by grace through that faith how can we doubt our faith. That means doubting Christ. I can never do that.
“The time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear” (2 Timothy 4:3). Itching ears is used to ,
Larry, your question or statement is beautiful..." There's no one up there". ... That's totally reasonable in my mind, honest, and legit right! I have a 4 year old boy and teen girls . My toddler just accepts that his dead animals, friends, family etc .. are with God and he talks about God without question. I.. on the other hand have worked the streets, yadada like most adults, and can attest to questioning. The best reasoning i 3ver heard.... dont you want a friend that you may not see very often but you know without a doubt they are there for you ... Jesus wants the same... if he just gave everyone salvation in an envelope, it wouldn't be very fulfilling to him. He wants to see some faith when it seems impossible to believe. And in that faith, he wil, in retur, share the impossible he has to share
I watched Joel Osteen the whole 2015 through to 2016... and his sermons became synonymous and routine...same message, live right, have a right attitude...be happy, be a good human being.. that's it. You won't get nothing apart from that.. whether religious or not.
I mean, well, I suppose, I guess, I mean I think I believe, I might understand, i don't know. Give us preachers that KNOW the truth! That aren't afraid!
@@shawndecker426 you need to do you research and look up the definition of “false prophet”.you should watch his services you could really grow from it with your negative thoughts of others
@@Frankensteims Have you heard this man? Read all of this: He ignores 3/4s of the new testament, including Jesus' teaching on how we will be persecuted for our faith, he ignores how we must DENY OURSELVES, not build ourselves up with false senses of power, we must take up our cross and follow Christ. Osteen teaches the prosperity gospel, which is completely false, stating if you turn to God he'll get you out of suffering and cause you to grow wealthy. NO! Jesus said count the cost of choosing him, as we will be HATED by the world for his name sake! I know what false teacher is, and anyone who actually reads their Bible knows it as well. Joel Osteen is a false teacher who gives false hope to people.
Why is he rich you ask? Well when you share even a little bit of the word, God pay's huge dividends, Don't hate the player, Hate the Game. I don't care how much money he has in the bank, I feel good when I watch, I say my prayers and thats the way I live. Just remember hating gives you wrinkles.
It is true, Joel admits he never went to bible school. So I agree Joel's Sunday sermons are designed to give people hope. However if you listen to Lakewood's weekly bible studies it is very orthodox.
@@patrickc3419 he never went to bible college, but he is an encourager. Joel after every sermon tells his audience to go attend a good bible believing church. The Lord must use Joel since he has the largest church in America. We don't need haters in church we need people who care about people that's how you win people to Jesus.
@@e.a.p3174 Lakewood is not a church, it is a social arena, point number one. Lastly, it it the largest building of its kind in the nation because he says what people want to hear not what they need to hear. 1 Corinthians 1 says the the Cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, Matthew 10:22 records Jesus promising that believers will be hated for his name’s sake. If he preached the Gospel, which by nature wounds prideful hearts, he would be hated. We are not promised a healthy, happy, successful life. Osteen has zero preaching of the doctrines of grace, of the depravity of man, of the nature of sin, or that we are saved by grace alone by faith alone in Christ alone. John MacArthur, Voddie Baucham, Paul Washer, Conrad Mbewe, Steve Lawson, Alistair Begg, Sinclair Ferguson, Jeff Durbin are pastors. Joel Osteen is not a pastor, nor is he a Christian. He needs to repent, turn to Christ and live.
Pretty eye-opening. First of all, I think he just doesn't want to offend. Him not wanting to preach the bad with the good is a problem. I like him and before I became more versed in the Bible, he was a great listen. He needed to be stronger here as I really believe that Larry made agnotism more relevant. Joel, when he asked you about heaven why did you not say Jesus is the way the truth and the life and no one goes to heaven but through him. Preach the gospel when you have the chance. Sigh.
Joel is a heretic. He does not preach the true Gospel, where Jesus came to save us from our sins. He preaches that God will give us health and wealth and uses a little Christenese. He is so far removed from the truth
I really want to listen the three gospel of Jesus Christ, I recommend you Paul Washer, about Joel he needs our prayers because he’s not a man of woman.
Notice this false charlatan always says "the scripture says" yet he never names any verses, books or numbers...He does not know the Bible...He is not even trained in theology....
Going to seminary these days leads to false gospel. And its unbiblical. You dont need some supposed scholar to teach you the bible you need a bible and the holy spirit and fellowship with real born again believers.
He was only saying on what he normally does as a pastor. In Ephesians 4:11-22 it says, "And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ," It doesn't mean he's not for revivals, he simply means he's not into conducting revivals. He's a pastor, that means his job is more of ministering to people who are already saved, who had already been revived, to keep them in their walk with God. God appoints some people like Billy Graham to be evangelists to bring in those who are unsaved through revivals while He appoints some to be pastors to care for those who are already saved
"I like to have a big wide net". Joel Osteen Matt 7:13 "For the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction and there are many who enter through it."
Psalm 91 (personalized) 1 Because I dwell in the shelter of the Most High, I will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of the Lord, “ He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” 3 Surely He will save me from the fowler's snare and from the deadly pestilence. 4 He will cover me with his feathers and under his wings I will find refuge; his faithfulness will be my shield 5 I will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day. 6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. 7 A thousand may fall at my side, ten thousand at my right hand, but it will not come near me (or my family). 8 I will only observe with my eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. 9 If I say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and I make the Most High my dwelling, 10 No harm will overtake me, no disaster will come near my tent. 11For he will command his angels concerning me to guard me in all my ways. 12 They will lift me up in their hands, so that I will not strike my foot against a stone, 13 I will tread on the lion and the cobra; I will trample the great lion and the serpent. 14 “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. 15 He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. 16 With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.
I don’t think so. However, you can have all the “faith” & “hope” in the earth BUT without Jesus, it’s nothing. In this interview Joel rarely gave God the credit God unequivocally deserves. Joel took credit for most of his success. That’s just not Biblical.
The same people who condemn God's wealthy helpers are the same people who would have condemned Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David , Solomon and Job. Why did God richly bless these men , If God prefers them to be poor? I wonder if those same people prevent themselves from having anything nice because they'd rather give to the poor . I wonder if those same people Use their WHOLE stimulus checks on poor people and not themselves. I wonder if any of those people would say if they won the lottery they would give it all away and not keep a single dime for themselves. The very same people that accuse God's wealthy helpers aren't giving the little that they have to the poor, and they aren't impacting anywhere near as much people as Joel Osteen and others. Jesus didn't need wealth because His mind is God's, and He created wealth and riches, So it means nothing to him. His life and purpose was different than ours.. He came here to set us free from bondage and to make us rich in God. Now we ALL can be richly blessed BY FAITH, NOT by WORKS. Because God loved us in our sin, that he saved us from sin. Now our faith makes us right with God. And God chooses whoever he wants to bless. Any Bible reader should know that God is sovereign and he chooses to give and take to everybody. And if God chooses to give much to Joel, then who can sit there and question it! God has mercy on who he chooses to have mercy on and he can bless whoever he chooses to bless. A lot of people's lives I have been changed because of Joel osteen's messages... May God continue to bless him.
“ Reach Your Dreams, I Say What I Feel, I Figure Out WHAT I want to say “ “ You don’t have to be religious to read my book 14:00 “The scripture gets confusing I don’t understand it” 16:54 “I’m NOT trying to Explain SCRIPTURE “
There's just something I'd like to know here..... In the Bible, Paul mentions a number of gifts that Christians might possess and one of them is, "if you have the gift to encourage others, be encouraging" (Romans 12:8) And Joel Osteen's messages are very encouraging. And his messages are based on the Bible. So is it possible that her isn't a false teacher, but instead a Christian with the gift of being able to encourage others?
Encouraging for what though? Monetary wealth? I'll have to read Romans 12:8 in full context again and see if that's what he's referring to. I doubt it.
Joel knows what King is trying to do- bait him into conflict- it’s his job - but Joel refuses - it’s like a game of chess- Joel is happy and enjoying himself because he knows he can’t lose this GamE , God is with him and as a follower of Jesus he does what Jesus didQuote from scripture for all you critics who say he doesn’t know the Bible it’s because none of you have otherwise you would recognise God’s Word “ And He answered them not a word “ Also Joel says he doesn’t know because no one knows everything “Trust in the Lord with ALL YOUR HEART, LEAN NOT TO YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING “ Bible clearly says we don’t lean on our own understanding because we’re not god. We didn’t create the universe, we don’t know how everything functions. DDAH however it’s good that you ask, but Bible says “seek and you shall find “ that’s something for you to do and not expect to be spoon fed.
I have believed in God all my life. The only mistake Joel Osteen made here was to get interviewed by a man who did not care about Joel Osteen. Not even Jesus would have sat in front of this man because it would have been foolish. Larry had an agenda, Larry was not searching for the truth. Joel Osteen is being talked down to and he is trying to remain peaceful. Joel Osteen, I believe, actually cared for Larry more than Larry cared for himself. Caring for Larry was Joel Osteen’s cross to carry at that moment. Jesus was the only righteous man among all, he could’ve told everyone their nasty sins but Jesus spoke down to the Pharisees(with their righteous indignation(hypocrites)) and he blessed the rest of us! Joel never went to seminary but he listened and obeyed his father, for all his life. King David loved and obeyed his father, he was blessed by God. People are mad because Joel is “not man enough,” but the Pharisees (like Steve Lawson from “Grace” Church Sun Valley) tried to corner Jesus many times and Jesus never gave them what they wanted. The Pharisees were not hungry for the truth, they wanted controversy. I believe that Joel Osteen is representing God’s Grace. After all, it was not our goodness that saved us, but it was God’s Grace. Joel Osteen is a product of being raised in a grace filled house. God bless.
He says “I don’t want to die now”. To live is Christ, yes. But to die is gain! I’d love to be with the Lord now, but if I am to live- then more fruitful labor for me as Paul stated.
He repeats, "It's my belief" over and over! it's about what the Lord says in His Word, not what you think Joel! You had the chance to tell the truth of God's word to an agnostic, looking for the truth, and now he has passed on. You will regret that someday, when you stand before God.
Wrong. Osteen is a false pastor/teacher but God let it happen. God already warns us about this will come to pass. It's up to us what truth shall we believe.

Are you even allow to judge as a Christian as it is CLEARLY said : DO NOT JUDGE as you will be judged with the same measure you are judging?? Then let me do so! You are here doing your little mean job of slandering and judging! You are a total shame for Christian community! When God ask us NOT TO JUDGE yet you are here as an internet wicked troll and saying you are a christian???? Go and start yourself elsewhere and stop calling yourself Christian!!! Let me have a good laugh about how you are declaring yourself a good Christan and spitting on your neighbour! We should clean jesus's kingdom of people who act like Pharisees, telling they are cleaner and better person than others!!! lol
He didn’t wanna preach until he saw how much money could be made being a motivational speaker masked as a Christian! Tell em what they wanna hear, tell em how wonderful they are, how you will be rich and healthy! Easy pickins man. Shooting fish in a barrel
+Simon wachira Hi Simon. Osteen won't quote the Scriptures because the Scriptures will prove him to be a liar, a fraud, a devil, a wolf in sheep's clothing, one who savages the sheep of Christ, a hypocrite, a whitewashed tomb. Jesus would agree. Osteen is a modern-day Pharisee and is doomed to hell, unless he repents. It's about time the ordinary believer in Jesus spoke out and challenged these evil men and their smooth words.
He’s not going to be bated into conflict, he’s a lot smarter than that. That’s why he’s peaceful, happy, healthy, special and rich. Just how God wants us all to be.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏yes!!
Never forget as a young man and man of JESUS THE CHRIST when i was about early 20s i had a vision Joel came up to me and told me what is it about me am I to be a preacher i told him youre not doing right by The Lord your father was Anointed for ministry but youre not i told him this and he just looked at me very sadly and i said you need to go after The Lord for yourself
Joel is a motivational speaker . His success stems from the fact that he welcomes everyone. Whether he himself is a believer? No one knows. His wife, Victoria, has been involved in punching a stewardess on a plane. She is quite mean and holds her head very high. Joel has charisma. However, during a heavy storm he did not open the doors of his church to help survivors.
"Die to self, take up your cross and follow me." ~Jesus Christ
sounds gay
Amen sis
That looks different for everyone and only God knows your heart.
Exactly what does that mean? I would say that means we give our best in all our life, we trust God, and we treat people with love. If you love people and encourage them you are doing the Lord's work
So how are you doing that?
This is not a preacher of the gospel of Christ. This a motivational speaker.
Isn't Jesus christ a motivational speaker?
You are so right
@@lebogangmosupi3297 No.
Exactly! Not a Pastor at all!
He definitely not a preacher. Imagine if he preached the word of God. How many people who would be delivered and set free from sin.
Grew up at Lakewood Church and honestly this church holds some of the most amazing people. Critics will say this and that, but that’s why they are where they are. Joel’s leadership under God has produced so much great fruit and it cannot be denied. But I guess those who know, know.
It's funny How most of his answers starts with "I don't know" and "I don't understand"
False prophet
Just like when they ask him do you know what it means to be born again?? Or Joel do you know what Salvation means??

@@utoobfan7203 well by Joel's Actions saying that he did not know what it meant to be saved and you don't have to be saved to go to Heaven, he is leading people astray. Do you know what God said about leading his people astray.. 🤔 Well I have to say no more his actions speak louder than words. All he preaches about its prosperity, not salvation. Get out of here with that, Joe ha's use the name of Jesus to profit off of and it is pitiful. All we can do is pray for him. God tells us "Buy the fruit of their spirit they will be known". IMHO Joel has sum soul searching as most of these big money pastors with all the money coming in it is temptation. And temptation, once conceived turns into lust which manifest into sin. #Facts
Notice when he was asked how he prepares his sermons, he said “I” figure out what “I” want to talk about. Most pastors will pray first and ask God what HE wants me to preach about.
Mark I think that’s implied. His sermons require a lot of reflection of the scripture’s teaching, therefore prayer and a foresight of later teachings
At least he´s honest. All these psychos who claim to know gods will... would scare me more.
@@Kevin-nr9hp Haev you even listened to his sermons? There´s virtually nothing Biblical in them.
ElSpewtardo I agree with that. Not enough of Fear of the Lord in these type of mega church sermons. We miss the fact that Jesus IS the judge yet we don’t say His name enough.

If you know the Bible, Joel basis what he says on scripture. In his books he list all the scriptures which back up the things he writes about.
In compassion, I say...we truely
need to pray for him and his family ...that God will bring truth..breaks my heart...deception is going on in their lives....tears for him.
Joel is not comfortable being interviewed. He is not able to Express himself on the spur of the moment. He is humble and knows to keep guard on his flesh. He and his staff pray for wisdom to put God first.
@@g.m.c.6606 how wasn't he able to answer the questions not believe, he suppose to took Larry to the scripture. He couldn't even answer how God deals with all of us. God is omnipresent! How simple is that. No he can' t make us read our bible, but as he stated he is a pastor, which is one of the gifts from God, therefore when God gives us a gift he equips us to use that gift in saving souls. Was it his Hob to convince Larry to follow the Lord no, but it is his job to let someone like Larry know that he was sure of the "God" he served and how people of the world view him was a myth. Either Larry is not a believer of he is a believer and want to see where Hole stood with God, either way he made a foil out of him.
@@g.m.c.6606 the bible tells us to guard our hearts with the scriptures, therefore every question he answered was suppose to be supported with a passage from the scripture.

@@wjmckay1946 No, he isn’t humble at all, he just pray a gospel that satisfies the lister, a gospel that tell people how they are going to get rich if they listen to him or go to his church, Joel and his family needs a lot of prayer, I recommend you to listen to Paul Washer, he preaches the true gospel of Jesus Christ, not how to feel better, but how to go to heaven.
Listening to Joel has picked me up out of the dumps many times.
He is giving sugar instead of teaching the truth in love and when the world loves you don’t rejoice because the world hated Jesus why would they love you. I pray that God touches his heart and reveals himself to Him, because that’s a lot of souls that will be lost if he doesn’t share the truth along with the encouragement.
So true, too many of them are selling out the gospel for fame

Bro. Joel's sermons helped me so much when I was sick, & it looked like I wasn't going to make it. I had been a Christian for a long time. I used to think it was my job to tear down other Christians because they were different than me. That kind of critical Christianity won't help you when you when you're critically sick & not expected to live. Only a message of love will rescue you. Joel's sermons helped me pull thru. 8 yrs. later, I well & healthy. Joel's sermons helped me to love other Christians. Now, I'm ashamed of attacking other Christians.

Don't judge others.
Joel preaches to an audience who wants to hear what they want to hear and that's what he feeds off of. He doesn't want to offend anybody so his teachings are based on happiness and reaching your dreams; he needs to touch more on subjects that hit hard and hit home.
Heard his preaching about the blood of Jesus or you're just as uninformed and blindfolded as every one else?

You answered your own question. He's a motivational speaker, not a pastor. Jesus Christ was not open-minded and inclusive. His message was not inviting. He said "I am God, I am the truth. Repent and follow Me or you will perish in the lake of fire." Being God, He knew more than anyone how dire the situation was. He preached true repentance. Joel Osteen does not. That's why he is so despised by true born-again Christians.

Because he's a feel good preacher. He specifically dosen't want to offend anyone. God's word Offends and pierces like a two edged sword. Jesus Christ the solid ROCK I stand all other ground is sinking sand. He never tells the story of the cross because people would be convicted of their sins and repent. But, most would leave. 30+ thousand in his church most wealthy and don't even know Jesus Christ as their Lord and savior.
Because the path of Satan seems good
He’s a professional positivity spin doctor. If he’s knowledgeable about anything, it’s how to deflect “negativity” and spin it to a positive. Not a bad thing but gullible people shouldn’t be so fooled to profess their faith in a biblical neophyte
If one needs motivation, Joel is the best option, but if they need a biblical sermon, a sermon of repentance and faith, a sermon about Jesus, I don't think he's a good choice. His motivations are good for our normal everyday life, but not our Christian life. Christianity includes both messages on how you live your life here, and how to focus on the life after. But Joel focusing on one, he's a motivation speaker. So he should clarify his followers and church members about that🙏

I love joel because he understands that the truth is secondary to how we feel on a day to day basis. If you’re looking for truth Christianity is not it. It’s full of contradictions and logical anomalies. Theologians treat the Bible like a legal document always attempting to reconcile their cognitive dissonance around its many inconsistencies. There is a great quote ‘I’ve given up my search for truth and am now looking for a good fantasy’. That’s what this is. It’s a helpful psychological tool that uses the fantasy of god and the Bible as a means to uplift and stay on a positive frequency. And there is nothing wrong with that. Anything else is superstition and superstition is veiled in darkness

his people to know?

A man who can say "I DON'T KNOW IT ALL!!!" 😍💯🙌
I'm not gonna cancel him, The Lord is still using him
Joel Osteen is clearly a man after God's own heart. He cannot and will not be made ashamed. God is his defender. God bless you and your family continuously Joel.
No, David was a man after God's own heart. David was not afraid to stand for God against the giant. he told the giant who his God was and who the victory belonged to. And what does this man Joel do? He gives nothing but sugar cake after sugar cake. Too much sugar can make you sick. There are too many people that walk away from his show that I have spoken to personally that start talking like him and saying "Oh you know there is no difference in the Muslim and the Christian, and we will all go to Heaven together......wrong. Show me the scriptures. The scriptures say there is a Broad way and a Narrow way. Joel is leading the broad way at this point. Where is the conviction, where is Hellfire preaching, where is the preaching against false doctrine, where is the guts, where is the single Glory To God? With Joel, there is NONE. He is a self-loving, compromising jellyfish that will squirm before the presence of the Lord in stern Judgement. God cannot bless false doctrine.
Your Amnesia The Dark Descent Lantern
You are so right!!!!!!!
It bothers me he doesnt speak about Jesus, he talks about God, most religions have a god they worship but Christians put their faith and trust in Jesus, joel should not exclude Christ!
Sultan If he did you all would dismiss him anyway and say “another pastor preaching”. Everybody just hate successful people Bruh! It’s disgusting. I like the fact that a Christian is successful. I strive for that. Joel I salute you Brother!!!!! I’m not a follower of yours but I am a Christian and run into the critics. We call him HATERS in the hood Joel😂 Do your thing Brother. This is the only thing.... never put money over your morality or make it a God because its not. Put God First again America. We need him more than ever.
He does ... Every time
I have studied scripture for many years and God through Joel has opened my understanding for a number of things that had been unclear. At EVERY service Joel gives an invitation for any and all to repent and accept Christ Jesus. He is one of the most faith based (NOT prosperity based as his many critic say) preachers I have ever heard. Jesus said love one another and don't judge each other and Joel certainly is a great example that.
His sermons are uplifting and that's good enough for me.
Im sure it is. Most people like to have their ears tickled.
Being uplifted won´t get you into heaven.
Joel is all class. I wish I would've seen this sooner. I love how humble he is and his tone is even and confident. He doesn't back down, but he isn't offended or defensive.
What interview are you watching
Joel is a wishy washy Bad Shepherd…he was too evasive standing up forJesus. As he admitted, he doesn’t understand the Bible that much …is there a genuine preacher who doesn’t study the Bible??
He is a false teacher.
Joel Osteen is not a Christian. He is biblically unqualified to lead a local church.
Hi @Kym Welton He's not a true man of God, Joel is not allowing the Holy Spirit to lead him. Please stay away from his sermon! He doesn't stay what God teaches. Please pick up the Bible and know God for your self.
He didnt seemd too jazzed about sharing the Gospel with this self professing agnostic WHO IS ASKING QUESTIONS. He admitted it's basically tell the people what they wanna hear. And what do ya know, people like it.
I'm not one to speak of my faith, but Osteen changed my life. He taught me how to live for my God n a godly life regardless of who my highr power was.
I would be shaking in my boots on judgement day if I was Joel Osteen!
I have so much to say but I agree. did he just say we want to be poor? to be humble listen no one wants to be poor but every sereocmentance has meaning and the Lord will use that time for something great
You was just on another channel saying how he helped you and your husband...
Leigh 83 WHY WOMAN ????
Leigh 83 you’re right he don’t preach as the scripture says
u are right
I watch his Sermons everyday. Hes one of the best Pastors Ive ever seen. His profound message of Love goes way beyond this world of materialism and religious dogma.
However i can't see boldness in him answering simple questions.
Good evening? Pastor Joel Osteen is the perfect pastor for me.♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏🤝🤝🤝
Jesus is the perfect one.
"The most watched inspirational figure in America"... People, THIS IS AN IMPOSTOR!!!!!
How can a pastor be perfectly fine with the fact that he doesn't preach going scripture by scripture, and even worse, not mention JESUS (YESHUA), the NAME ABOVE ALL NAME, in a 27:54 long video??? What about when he was asked about the 3 things he would bring on a deserted island, and answered his wife and his 2 children, but didn't even think about the Bible? Or again, when Larry King asks him if he believes we'll go up to the sky, and he simply ignores the question by saying that he "believes heaven is a physical place and that he does believe it's up"... But if this guy knew the word of God, here is what he could refer to... Mark 12:25 --> For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. SO YES, WE DO RISE AFTER DEATH!!!!! Hosea 4:6 --> My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.
This whole video is so ridiculous, but from 24:00 to 24:35 it just goes downhill...
It simply proves that he is what we call a LIFE COACH, or an inspirational speaker!
Amen sister
Victoria Villedrouin GREAT WORD SISTER!!
Victoria Villedrouin amen!
I think he's a motivational speaker who believes in God
Wolves in sheep's clothing
What kind of preacher doesn’t preach on salvation? What is the point of having that huge church if you don’t bring anyone to Christ??
At 12:38 Joel Osteen declares that he never doubts his faith. That statement alone would disqualify him from any intelligent discussion of religion. Doubt is one of our most valuable assets in this world and acts as a light in areas of uncertainty.
If faith is given to us by Christ and we are saved by grace through that faith how can we doubt our faith. That means doubting Christ. I can never do that.
“The time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear” (2 Timothy 4:3). Itching ears is used to ,
I am so proud to be a social media follower to this POSITIVE man. Honestly is the harder thing ever.!
Be wary of rich people slandering the word of God. I can't believe anyone takes this guy seriously.
Larry, your question or statement is beautiful..." There's no one up there". ... That's totally reasonable in my mind, honest, and legit right! I have a 4 year old boy and teen girls . My toddler just accepts that his dead animals, friends, family etc .. are with God and he talks about God without question. I.. on the other hand have worked the streets, yadada like most adults, and can attest to questioning. The best reasoning i 3ver heard.... dont you want a friend that you may not see very often but you know without a doubt they are there for you ... Jesus wants the same... if he just gave everyone salvation in an envelope, it wouldn't be very fulfilling to him. He wants to see some faith when it seems impossible to believe. And in that faith, he wil, in retur, share the impossible he has to share
I watched Joel Osteen the whole 2015 through to 2016... and his sermons became synonymous and routine...same message, live right, have a right attitude...be happy, be a good human being.. that's it. You won't get nothing apart from that.. whether religious or not.
I mean he's obviously a thinly veiled conman but at least he doesn't openly preach hate.
@Z A sure the bible never changes, but when there is 66 books in the bible, it shouldn't be hard to switch it up sometimes.
Watch this and then watch the interview with bro.billy graham. A big difference!!!!
One thing that characterises a man filled with the Spirit is a bold and accurate speach..
You have none of that
I mean, well, I suppose, I guess, I mean I think I believe, I might understand, i don't know. Give us preachers that KNOW the truth! That aren't afraid!
Sad to see a religious man talk down on a awesome human being
@@Frankensteims Jesus warns us of false prophets
@@shawndecker426 you need to do you research and look up the definition of “false prophet”.you should watch his services you could really grow from it with your negative thoughts of others
@@Frankensteims Have you heard this man? Read all of this: He ignores 3/4s of the new testament, including Jesus' teaching on how we will be persecuted for our faith, he ignores how we must DENY OURSELVES, not build ourselves up with false senses of power, we must take up our cross and follow Christ. Osteen teaches the prosperity gospel, which is completely false, stating if you turn to God he'll get you out of suffering and cause you to grow wealthy. NO! Jesus said count the cost of choosing him, as we will be HATED by the world for his name sake! I know what false teacher is, and anyone who actually reads their Bible knows it as well. Joel Osteen is a false teacher who gives false hope to people.
I am so proud to be a social media.follower to this positive man.honestly is the harder thing ever.♥️♥️♥️🤝🤝🤝🙏🙏🙏
I like this guy. I don't understand people who leave mean comments
Why is he rich you ask? Well when you share even a little bit of the word, God pay's huge dividends, Don't hate the player, Hate the Game. I don't care how much money he has in the bank, I feel good when I watch, I say my prayers and thats the way I live. Just remember hating gives you wrinkles.
God doesn’t give people money for preaching that beats the point of not having material possessions.
@@loganboggs7613 God’s always always blessed me 10 fold when I give to help spread his word. Better returns than the stock market. Facts
Joel Osteen sounds more like a motivational speaker than a preacher
Both...nothing wrong with that.
It is true, Joel admits he never went to bible school. So I agree Joel's Sunday sermons are designed to give people hope. However if you listen to Lakewood's weekly bible studies it is very orthodox.
Because he is not a preacher.
@@patrickc3419 he never went to bible college, but he is an encourager. Joel after every sermon tells his audience to go attend a good bible believing church. The Lord must use Joel since he has the largest church in America. We don't need haters in church we need people who care about people that's how you win people to Jesus.
@@e.a.p3174 Lakewood is not a church, it is a social arena, point number one.
Lastly, it it the largest building of its kind in the nation because he says what people want to hear not what they need to hear. 1 Corinthians 1 says the the Cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, Matthew 10:22 records Jesus promising that believers will be hated for his name’s sake.
If he preached the Gospel, which by nature wounds prideful hearts, he would be hated.
We are not promised a healthy, happy, successful life.
Osteen has zero preaching of the doctrines of grace, of the depravity of man, of the nature of sin, or that we are saved by grace alone by faith alone in Christ alone.
John MacArthur, Voddie Baucham, Paul Washer, Conrad Mbewe, Steve Lawson, Alistair Begg, Sinclair Ferguson, Jeff Durbin are pastors. Joel Osteen is not a pastor, nor is he a Christian.
He needs to repent, turn to Christ and live.
Pretty eye-opening. First of all, I think he just doesn't want to offend. Him not wanting to preach the bad with the good is a problem. I like him and before I became more versed in the Bible, he was a great listen.
He needed to be stronger here as I really believe that Larry made agnotism more relevant.
Joel, when he asked you about heaven why did you not say Jesus is the way the truth and the life and no one goes to heaven but through him. Preach the gospel when you have the chance. Sigh.
Joel is a heretic. He does not preach the true Gospel, where Jesus came to save us from our sins. He preaches that God will give us health and wealth and uses a little Christenese.
He is so far removed from the truth
Father Mike
This guy is Matthew McConaughey if he became a pastor
😂😂😂😂
" SPOT ON " !!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
hahhahaha, I can't unhear it now
😂😂😂😂
😂
This guy is always in bliss, the way he communicate is with so much passion and love
I really want to listen the three gospel of Jesus Christ, I recommend you Paul Washer, about Joel he needs our prayers because he’s not a man of woman.
@@1justice2012 Did you see Steven Lawson's reaction on this?
Yep a true con artist 😂😂😂😂
Larry was Sooo Smooth !! There wasn't Anybody he couldn't Interview !! He was the Best !!!...
Notice this false charlatan always says "the scripture says" yet he never names any verses, books or numbers...He does not know the Bible...He is not even trained in theology....
I don't think he received seminary. That's the problem. However let's not Judge him (Mat 7:1)
Makes no difference if he quotes the BUY-BULL or not. It's all made up stories anyway.
Hidden Talent Films because he dont know the bible!!!
These morans in any faith, shape or form make $ around the world! People who follow them make me believe they are more morans than him! Idiots!!!
Going to seminary these days leads to false gospel. And its unbiblical. You dont need some supposed scholar to teach you the bible you need a bible and the holy spirit and fellowship with real born again believers.
He was only saying on what he normally does as a pastor. In Ephesians 4:11-22 it says, "And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,"
It doesn't mean he's not for revivals, he simply means he's not into conducting revivals. He's a pastor, that means his job is more of ministering to people who are already saved, who had already been revived, to keep them in their walk with God. God appoints some people like Billy Graham to be evangelists to bring in those who are unsaved through revivals while He appoints some to be pastors to care for those who are already saved
Larry’s questioning as if he is screening daughter’s date....
"I like to have a big wide net". Joel Osteen
Matt 7:13 "For the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction and there are many who enter through it."
Well, he isn’t a Christian. He is a false teacher.
Will pray for him,,, Lord have mercy on the ones that sit in his church.
God blessed him with that church and those followers.
Psalm 91
(personalized)
1 Because I dwell in the shelter of the Most High,
I will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, “ He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I
trust.”
3 Surely He will save me from the fowler's snare and from the deadly
pestilence.
4 He will cover me with his feathers and under his wings I will find refuge; his
faithfulness will be my shield
5 I will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day.
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys
at midday.
7 A thousand may fall at my side, ten thousand at my right hand, but it will
not come near me (or my family).
8 I will only observe with my eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.
9 If I say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and I make the Most High my dwelling,
10 No harm will overtake me, no disaster will come near my tent.
11For he will command his angels concerning me to guard me in all my ways.
12 They will lift me up in their hands, so that I will not strike my foot against
a stone,
13 I will tread on the lion and the cobra; I will trample the great lion and the
serpent.
14 “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him,
for he acknowledges my name.
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I
will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.
What most of you people in these comments are saying is that everyone should stay defeated and live without hope. SMH!!!
I don’t think so. However, you can have all the “faith” & “hope” in the earth BUT without Jesus, it’s nothing. In this interview Joel rarely gave God the credit God unequivocally deserves. Joel took credit for most of his success. That’s just not Biblical.
The same people who condemn God's wealthy helpers are the same people who would have condemned Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David , Solomon and Job. Why did God richly bless these men , If God prefers them to be poor? I wonder if those same people prevent themselves from having anything nice because they'd rather give to the poor . I wonder if those same people Use their WHOLE stimulus checks on poor people and not themselves. I wonder if any of those people would say if they won the lottery they would give it all away and not keep a single dime for themselves. The very same people that accuse God's wealthy helpers aren't giving the little that they have to the poor, and they aren't impacting anywhere near as much people as Joel Osteen and others. Jesus didn't need wealth because His mind is God's, and He created wealth and riches, So it means nothing to him. His life and purpose was different than ours.. He came here to set us free from bondage and to make us rich in God. Now we ALL can be richly blessed BY FAITH, NOT by WORKS. Because God loved us in our sin, that he saved us from sin. Now our faith makes us right with God. And God chooses whoever he wants to bless. Any Bible reader should know that God is sovereign and he chooses to give and take to everybody. And if God chooses to give much to Joel, then who can sit there and question it! God has mercy on who he chooses to have mercy on and he can bless whoever he chooses to bless. A lot of people's lives I have been changed because of Joel osteen's messages... May God continue to bless him.

@pastor cool nice 👍🏾
The reason he doesn't understand anything is that he did not go to seminary
@@trizzamuthumani5902and he doesn't live for God, he lives for the world and money
Amen so awesome pastor Joel Osteen ❤😂
There's just something I'd like to know here.....
In the Bible, Paul mentions a number of gifts that Christians might possess and one of them is, "if you have the gift to encourage others, be encouraging" (Romans 12:8)
And Joel Osteen's messages are very encouraging. And his messages are based on the Bible. So is it possible that her isn't a false teacher, but instead a Christian with the gift of being able to encourage others?
Encouraging for what though? Monetary wealth? I'll have to read Romans 12:8 in full context again and see if that's what he's referring to. I doubt it.
Joel knows what King is trying to do- bait him into conflict- it’s his job - but Joel refuses - it’s like a game of chess- Joel is happy and enjoying himself because he knows he can’t lose this GamE , God is with him and as a follower of Jesus he does what Jesus didQuote from scripture for all you critics who say he doesn’t know the Bible it’s because none of you have otherwise you would recognise God’s Word “ And He answered them not a word “
Also Joel says he doesn’t know because no one knows everything “Trust in the Lord with ALL YOUR HEART, LEAN NOT TO YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING “ Bible clearly says we don’t lean on our own understanding because we’re not god. We didn’t create the universe, we don’t know how everything functions. DDAH however it’s good that you ask, but Bible says “seek and you shall find “ that’s something for you to do and not expect to be spoon fed.
We are all responsible for our own salvation. Others can both help AND lead you astray. Joel can teach you to be discerning.
his name is osteen, not olsteen. Joel Osteen senior pastor of Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas USA
Judith King
It actually was Olsteen
Look up the Mandela Effect.
I have believed in God all my life. The only mistake Joel Osteen made here was to get interviewed by a man who did not care about Joel Osteen. Not even Jesus would have sat in front of this man because it would have been foolish. Larry had an agenda, Larry was not searching for the truth.
Joel Osteen is being talked down to and he is trying to remain peaceful. Joel Osteen, I believe, actually cared for Larry more than Larry cared for himself. Caring for Larry was Joel Osteen’s cross to carry at that moment. Jesus was the only righteous man among all, he could’ve told everyone their nasty sins but Jesus spoke down to the Pharisees(with their righteous indignation(hypocrites)) and he blessed the rest of us!
Joel never went to seminary but he listened and obeyed his father, for all his life. King David loved and obeyed his father, he was blessed by God.
People are mad because Joel is “not man enough,” but the Pharisees (like Steve Lawson from “Grace” Church Sun Valley) tried to corner Jesus many times and Jesus never gave them what they wanted. The Pharisees were not hungry for the truth, they wanted controversy.
I believe that Joel Osteen is representing God’s Grace. After all, it was not our goodness that saved us, but it was God’s Grace. Joel Osteen is a product of being raised in a grace filled house.
God bless.
We love you so much Joel
He says “I don’t want to die now”. To live is Christ, yes. But to die is gain! I’d love to be with the Lord now, but if I am to live- then more fruitful labor for me as Paul stated.
He repeats, "It's my belief" over and over! it's about what the Lord says in His Word, not what you think Joel! You had the chance to tell the truth of God's word to an agnostic, looking for the truth, and now he has passed on. You will regret that someday, when you stand before God.

Are you even allow to judge as a Christian as it is CLEARLY said : DO NOT JUDGE as you will be judged with the same measure you are judging?? Then let me do so! You are here doing your little mean job of slandering and judging! You are a total shame for Christian community! When God ask us NOT TO JUDGE yet you are here as an internet wicked troll and saying you are a christian???? Go and start yourself elsewhere and stop calling yourself Christian!!! Let me have a good laugh about how you are declaring yourself a good Christan and spitting on your neighbour! We should clean jesus's kingdom of people who act like Pharisees, telling they are cleaner and better person than others!!! lol
THE KING exactly!!
He didn’t wanna preach until he saw how much money could be made being a motivational speaker masked as a Christian! Tell em what they wanna hear, tell em how wonderful they are, how you will be rich and healthy! Easy pickins man. Shooting fish in a barrel
am at a loss. why wont he quote the scriptures.
+Simon wachira Hi Simon. Osteen won't quote the Scriptures because the Scriptures will prove him to be a liar, a fraud, a devil, a wolf in sheep's clothing, one who savages the sheep of Christ, a hypocrite, a whitewashed tomb. Jesus would agree. Osteen is a modern-day Pharisee and is doomed to hell, unless he repents. It's about time the ordinary believer in Jesus spoke out and challenged these evil men and their smooth words.
Is he for real?! 😒 He avoids everything that Larry asks him. He believes more in himself than in God!
He’s not going to be bated into conflict, he’s a lot smarter than that. That’s why he’s peaceful, happy, healthy, special and rich. Just how God wants us all to be.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏yes!!
A wolf in sheeps clothing. It is so so sad. May God have mercy on his soul.

Really?
Never forget as a young man and man of JESUS THE CHRIST when i was about early 20s i had a vision Joel came up to me and told me what is it about me am I to be a preacher i told him youre not doing right by The Lord your father was Anointed for ministry but youre not i told him this and he just looked at me very sadly and i said you need to go after The Lord for yourself

2:25 into the program and he’s already saying it’s because of him that his church is going. It’s not because of God?
Joel is a motivational speaker . His success stems from the fact that he welcomes everyone. Whether he himself is a believer? No one knows. His wife, Victoria, has been involved in punching a stewardess on a plane. She is quite mean and holds her head very high. Joel has charisma. However, during a heavy storm he did not open the doors of his church to help survivors.
