[QUOTE="Fredkrueger100, post: 2829665, member: 24577"] I agree with this. Except for the last part. My preacher is great but he doesn't just try and build everyone up with every lesson. He also teaches about accountability and sin and repentance. I have watched Joel Osteen many times and I will admit that he is a great speaker, he is not a preacher. He rarely quotes any scripture when he speaks. He only tries to make everyone feel special and like getting to heaven is the easiest thing in the world. He makes millions of dollars by doing this. The bible specifically says that it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven. I think that pretty well sums it up. Now that's not to say a rich person can't enter heaven. It's just most rich people put money ahead of God. Giving money will not get you into heaven. Doing what Christ commanded will. And I love at then end of Joel's "lessons" where he tells people to say this prayer and you will be a Christian. Sorry buddy but that ain't how you become a Christian. He needs to try actually reading the bible. Of course he would probably just try and twist the scriptures to mean what he wants them to. That's one of the biggest problems of modern Christianity.
