SUPER FUNNY UPDATE ON JOEL OSTEEN: Check out Joel Osteen’s super scammy books he sells on Amazon (24!!!) including his self help BS book
and his hilarious book on “Wise Choices”. If only he’d follow his own advice!
LOL! For all you Joel Osteen fanboys – remember he just cynically feeds on you to make money so he can live his fancy lifestyle. He couldn’t care less about you in reality.
Popular televangelist preacher Joel Osteen has been named the “Most Influential Christian in America” in 2006 by the Church Report, was one of
Barbara Walters, “10 Most Fascinating People of 2006 and operates an extraordinarily profitable religious scam operation that probably will one day end in scandal.
So who is this guy who has appeared on 60 Minutes, Larry King Live and has his own television shows?
Who is this guy who thinks he can share the mighty name of Joel?
Joel Osteen has not yet had major sex scandals, drug scandals or molestation scandals like the other megachurch pastors: Pat Robertson, Al Sharpton, Ted Haggard, Paul Barnes, D.E. (Earl) Paulk, Jimmy Swaggert, Jim Bakker, William Dodd and too many others to possibly mention here. What Joel Osteen DOESN’T do is the real question.
In his sermons, Joel Osteen does not talk about God. Joel Osteen instead talks about almost everything except God. He has a television ministry, a massive church, $43 million a year in tithes and another $36 million a year in mailed in donations, but he won’t talk about God. He, like Pastor Kevin Gerald, talks about more pleasant topics, such as donating money to him and positive thinking. He has written two books, the second of which sold 3 million copies, but his books don’t really talk about God either. It’s just his bland and boring advice on how to live a happy life that has been thought of by other people first, “Think positively about yourself” and other such drivel.
What does Joel Osteen say when people ask him about why he does not discuss God or Jesus Christ or sin or what you need to do to go to Heaven? “That’s not my gift.” What are you doing being a freaking megachurch pastor then, bonehead?!
If you are going to try to operate a religious scam, at least make it religious! I actually think that Joel Osteen operating a secular “Christian” church is more of a scandal than Ted Haggard and his transsexual prostitutes and meth! (Though not nearly as funny of a scandal).
Joel Osteen didn’t even found his megachurch; instead the business was handed down to him by his father. When Joel Osteen became the head pastor of his church, he had only preached ONE sermon in his entire life- and that was the week before. Joel Osteen does not have any training in the Bible (seminary, degrees, etc.), which is probably why he doesn’t want to talk about it much.
My loyal readers have pointed out to me many times that the ridiculous actions of leaders in religion do not invalidate their beliefs. They are absolutely correct on this. However, there has never been anything that VALIDATES their beliefs either. The Flying Spaghetti Monster has the same amount of evidence on his side as most other gods. Here is another question I put to you: Please find me a single megachurch pastor who is NOT a scam-running, meth-eating, prostitute-abusing criminal. Anyone?
Update March 3, 2008 on JOEL OSTEEN:
Many people have been discussing Joel Osteen in the comments and making statements about his beliefs, behavior and preaching methods that show a distinct lack of understanding of his profit driven motives. Below I have added a video of Joel Osteen on Larry King Live where he dances around the core question of the Christian faith: What does it take to get to heaven? Joel Osteen hems and haws and won’t even say that people of different religions won’t make it to heaven.
The partial transcript for Joel Osteen’s interview with Larry King is below. I have basically pulled out the most pertinent excerpts to the point I have tried to make on televangelist Joel Osteen.
Televangelist Joel Osteen Discusses Christianity with Larry King
First is Larry King’s impressive introduction of Joel Osteen:
LARRY KING, CNN HOST: Tonight, Joel Osteen, evangelism’s hottest rising star, pastor for the biggest congregation in the United States… Pastor Joel Osteen is here for the hour…. Joel Osteen is the author of the number one “New York Times” best-seller, “Your Best Life Now.” There you see its cover. “Seven Steps to Living at Your Full Potential.” There is now a compendium been published called “Your Best Life Now Journal,” a guide to reaching that full potential. Joel Osteen is pastor of Lakewood Church in Houston, Texas. His father before him. He has been called the smiling preacher.
Larry King knows Joel Osteen Ministries is huge and tries to play nice with him throughout the interview.
KING: Why are you a preacher?
JOEL OSTEEN: You know, I never was for 17 years. I worked with my dad there at the church. He tried to get me to minister. I didn’t have it in me. I worked behind the scenes. I loved doing production and things. But when my father died, I just knew — I don’t know how to explain it, it sounds kind of odd, but I just knew down to here I was supposed to step up to the plate and pastor the church. And it was odd because I had never preached before. But I just knew I was supposed to do it.
Hmmm… either God gave him the “calling” or he was scared of losing his father’s multi-million dollar preaching business.
KING: But don’t you think if people don’t believe as you believe, they’re somehow condemned?
JOEL OSTEEN: You know, I think that happens in our society. But I try not to do that. I tell people all the time, preached a couple Sundays about it. I’m for everybody. You may not agree with me, but to me it’s not my job to try to straighten everybody out. The Gospel called the good news. My message is a message of hope, that’s God’s for you. You can live a good life no matter what’s happened to you. And so I don’t know. I know there is condemnation but I don’t feel that’s my place.
Joel Osteen comes right out and says that he will refuse to condemn sinners. He is too afraid, it’s not his place, he just wants to spew bland niceties… hmmm.
LARRY KING: Where were you ordained? OSTEEN: I was ordained from the church there, Lakewood, under my dad’s ministry.
LARRY KING: So you didn’t go to seminary?
JOEL OSTEEN: No, sir, I didn’t.
LARRY KING: They can just make you a minister?
JOEL OSTEEN: You can, you can.
Wow. Joel Osteen never even attended Bible school or classes for future preachers. No wonder he is so clueless about Biblical theology.
LARRY KING: Is it hard to lead a Christian life?
JOEL OSTEEN: I don’t think it’s that hard. To me it’s fun. We have joy and happiness. Our family — I don’t feel like that at all. I’m not trying to follow a set of rules and stuff. I’m just living my life.
LARRY KING: But you have rules, don’t you?
JOEL OSTEEN: We do have rules. But the main rule to me is to honor God with your life. To life a life of integrity. Not be selfish. You know, help others. But that’s really the essence of the Christian faith.
Of course its not hard for Joel Osteen to lead a Christian life. BECAUSE HE’S NOT!!!
LARRY KING: What if you’re Jewish or Muslim, you don’t accept Christ at all?
JOEL OSTEEN: You know, I’m very careful about saying who would and wouldn’t go to heaven. I don’t know …
LARRY KING: If you believe you have to believe in Christ? They’re wrong, aren’t they?
JOEL OSTEEN: Well, I don’t know if I believe they’re wrong. I believe here’s what the Bible teaches and from the Christian faith this is what I believe. But I just think that only God with judge a person’s heart. I spent a lot of time in India with my father. I don’t know all about their religion. But I know they love God. And I don’t know. I’ve seen their sincerity. So I don’t know. I know for me, and what the Bible teaches, I want to have a relationship with Jesus.
The last exchange between Larry King and Joel Osteen hits the nail on the head of everything that is wrong with the Joel Osteen Ministry. All it is is fluff. He can’t even defend the single core belief of Christianity- that a personal relationship with Jesus Christ is a requirement to gain access to Heaven.
Below is more Joel Osteen preaching videos. Joel Osteen preaches on cheesy, transparent topics that have nothing to do with the Bible. He twists scripture around to serve his own purposes of mass produced drivel. My question to Joel Osteen is where in the Bible does it say Christians have a “right to total victory” over physical pain, financial problems and other issues? Did he completely miss the book of Job or the trials and tribulations that the early Christians had to suffer under the Romans? I don’t think that Joel Osteen has ever even read the Bible.
DO NOT LET JOEL OSTEEN CONTINUE TO GET AWAY WITH HIS BIBLE-CONTRADICTING, POLITICALLY CORRECT AND PROFIT SEEKING DRIVEL! JOEL OSTEEN’S SCANDAL IS OUTRAGEOUS!
Jesus once went into a temple and threw out currency traders and salespeople…. WHO WILL THROW THE SCANDAL CREATING JOEL OSTEEN OUT OF GOD’S ASTRODOME TEMPLE?
Further discussion: Joel Osteen megachurch building – Joel Osteen paid the city of Houston $90,000,000 to remodel the former home of NBA team Houston Rockets and an additional $14,000,000 to lease the building for 30 years. Preacher Joel Osteen’s megachurch does not even own the building! Pastor Joel Osteen doesn’t care though- he’ll be dead by then and this church is all about him. The most interesting thing about the new church is that there is not a SINGLE cross in the whole building! Want to know why? Joel Osteen says that he wants to remove all “stumbling blocks” from the way of people coming to his church and being comfortable. Since when has Jesus Christ’s sacrifice on the cross been a STUMBLING BLOCK for faith?! The scandal here is that the Joel Osteen is doing and saying blasphemous things… and no one is calling him out on it. The pastor of the largest church in America won’t even follow the basic tenets of Christianity!

Joel Osteen is unable to even keep his own family under control. Pastor Joel Olsteen’s wife, Victoria Osteen, has been fined $3,000 and is being sued for assaulting a flight attendant on her first-class trip to the playground of the rich and famous Vail, Colorado.
Bible Verses that Condemn Megachurch Pastor Joel Osteen
I have had quite a few people post in the comments asking what does it really matter what Joel Osteen believes if he’s helping people? If Joel Osteen teaches nice things, isn’t it okay for him to be a Christian pastor? I understand that my opinions of right and wrong should not sway you, but I ask you to consider what the Bible says on the matter. First, let’s take the Bible verses that are the standard definition of who is a Christian:
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16 (NIV)
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23 (NIV)
For the wages of sin is death. Romans 6:23 (NIV)
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faithand this not from yourselves, it is the gift of Godnot by works, so that no one can boast. Ephesians 2:8-9 (NIV)
To summarize, the only way to be saved and go to heaven is by the grace of Jesus and by faith in God. These are the basic verses that every Christian who has accepted Christ knows. Now for the verses that clearly state that only Christians who believe the above will go to Heaven:
-John 3:3: no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.
-John 3:15: everyone who believes in him [Jesus] may have eternal life.
-John 3:18: whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of Gods one and only Son.
-John 14:6: Jesus answered: No one comes to the Father except through me
-Acts 3:23: And it shall be, that every soul that shall not hearken to that prophet, shall be utterly destroyed from among the people. (ASV)
-Acts 4:12: Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved
-Romans 10:9: Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved
-Hebrews 9:28: he [Christ] will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him
-1 John 5:12: he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.
The nine quoted verses above clearly state that only Christians can go to Heaven. Now, if Joel Osteen truly believed and was a pastor of a Bible-based church, would he preach a false message of hope to people? Joel Osteen is essentially subverting the word of God, which motivated me to write this post. I am not sure why Joel would do this, but my postulation (as above) is that he is doing it for financial gain. Joel Osteens father was a pastor and he has been a pastor for a long time now and he should know better than most people the MOST basic tenets of Christianity. Ignorance is an excuse for new Christians (as long as they work at it), but not for a shepherd of the flock.
Do you know what the Bible says about false teachers like Joel Osteen?
-2 Timothy 4:3,4 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth , and be turned aside to fables.
-Matthew 7:15,16 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheeps clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits.
-Acts 20:29-31 For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock. Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves . Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.
-2 Peter 2:1 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
-2 Peter 3:16,17 as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures. You therefore, beloved, since you know this beforehand, beware lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked;
-Colossians 2:8 Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.
-Hebrews 13:9 Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not with foods which have not profited those who have been occupied with them.
The Bible is very, very harsh in its condemnation of people who change, twist or leave out parts of its doctrine. False leaders (Joel Osteen), to me, are more disgusting than someone who is a hypocrite (Ted Haggard).
For more information on mega church pastor Joel Osteen you can search Google with the terms joelosteen.com or joel osteen.com to find the man’s website. You could also use terms such as Joel Osteen Website or Joel Osteen Lakewood Church for other sorts of information on him.
Why do I care what Joel Osteen does or doesnt do in his church, especially seeing that I am not religious? People who are cheats, fakes, and phonies really bother me. I have written quite a few other posts on various community leaders who lead people astray for their own personal gain. My tax dollars go to support Joel Osteen (every church in America is exempt from taxes, but Joel Osteen is making millions tax-free teaching his Prosperity Message when he is basically just another self-help guru). I also am very wary of megachurch pastors (I used to attend one and have seen many on television)- they often seem to be some of the craziest people (Jim Jones-Want some Kool Aid?)
What I gather is, that Joel Osteen is just a human being who lives a life of respect for himself, his family, and his fellow human kind. He may not be a ‘graduated’ pastor, but he has in him what it takes to project the right words to his fellow human counterparts, and that’s good enough for me, as it is, obviously, for his fellow churchgoers. He believes in living a life of common sense, of loving (not fearing) God, and being happy and positive in the process (not fearful). What’s wrong with that? He’s targeted at not speaking of God enough in his preachings. Well, I believe each of his words speaks fully of God, not of a particular religion, in his case his own, apparently, but he speaks of the human entity in its entirety, which God created. So people, listen to your inner self and feelings, and stop being part of a one-sided view. Being smart isn’t about criticizing, but of learning from the mistakes we or others make and make the right changes. It’s not about Joel Osteen, but of ourselves, each one of us. I’m not Christian, but I respect the view of others as long as it’s not negative or destructive to others. We have our God given mind, to chose and to decide what’s best for us. I call it ‘choice’. It’s too sad that bad choices are made more often than not, but I realize it’s humanity, that which I have no control of, but of my own. We learn from our mistakes, some sooner than others, some always have, some never will. I don’t follow his preachings too close, but every time I do, I am left with a good feeling about myself and my family, in which I try to contribute to betterment with the infinite guide of God’s given tennets of humility, respect, honor, love, and all positive principles available to me. Negative comments only come from negative influences, which are the ill use of religion, money and power. He’s got a powerful life, he’s got moeny, yes, but it’s only a side effect of being who he is, and what he does project for the goodness of people. Please, don’t compare this man with those other lowly christian pastors or other religious leaders, don’t generalize, for each of those subjects have made a mess of their lives only because of bad choices. Same goes for the political and powerful. I hope Joel Osteen, human being graduate, continues his crusade for better minds and better way of life for each one of us. Hope he also learns from his own mistakes and make the right changes, for they will influence his own followers’ minds to make this a better world. Thanks for listening. OMG

Jesus changes lives, not joel osteen
You need to stop hating and being jealous. Surely this is not the way to critize your brother in Christ. You sound like the enemy, satan himself. This is not the way if you believe that this man is not preaching the Gospel. He does not say Jesus in every other sentence but, he is preaching the word of God being a mighty warrior fighting on the battle field for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, being a great beacon of light in the sick , dark, demonic, wicked, evil and heartless world. I will pray for you because you are blinded and full of venom. The world looks at us stop taring your brother down in Christ. Pray for him (Joel) if you truely believe that he is deceiving multitudes. We get beat up enough out there in the world, so stop the “Drama” and knock it off. PLEASE!
i m jndian, please give me a all programs hindi video cd.
Joel Osteen does quote scriptures in his sermons and he does not say anything that harms people. In actual fact he gets people believing in God to control their lives. You should not judge others, only God can do that. If you think there is someyhing wrong with a christian brother or sister, you should pray for them and not try and bring them down. God loves u.

It’s the type of people who have written most of these comments that made Olsteen rich. They don’t seem to be concerned with doctrine and I see nothing to indicate that they understand what salvation is all about. I wonder if they even realize that it’s sin they are being saved from. If not, they won’t learn it from Olsteen.
Wooow! I’m a nigerian…….living in lagos……I do listen to pasor osteen on inspiration fm……a family radio station……..men!

I believe you are very mistaken about Joel. He is a very loving person who I have no doubt loves God very much!!! He quotes scripture every time he preaches and talks about how God loves everyone and says how he forgives everyone . At the end of each program he ask if we would ask Jesus to come into our hearts . So quite judgeing him!! He is a very loving pastor. You have no idea what you are talking about!!! He has helped so many people that I am sure thought that they were lost! May God Bless Joel and his family.
claps for you my friend, you have prooven yourself to be another hippocrit of some1 who is doing well. We all know that if he slapped the title of “humanitarian” or “philanthropist” u wouldn’t be jumping all over him. the only thing I have gathered from your little “investigation” is that he is bringing up the name of christianity as a self-representative for every1 to see. He never claims to be God nor his right hand man, heck this dude is actually self-condemning when he sees stuff about himself saying “awe, I’m not that different from any1 else…” and “ppl ask me ‘how do I do it?’ and my response is ‘that’s a good question…”. now why does he have to have some hidden scandal or conspiracy somewhere just because he is a christian pastor that has alot of followers and brings in a large sum of $ in various ways? the bible never said anything is wrong with ppl being blessed with abundance and such. And for your information, he quotes and recites scriptures all the time!!!! I think you need to recheck your sources. plus, all he has done is brought the bible into a current-time relation by giving up-to-date and real-life experiences to show how these bible verses relate to us in modern times. You need to take a chill pill ppls.
Joel Osteen through God has taught me a lot about love and helping other. Man, get a life and stop hating on others. You are a prime example of what’s called a real live hater….. I think you would love to be in his shoes…. Like I said stop hating……
I read Osteen`s book, and it changed something in me. I wasn`t really religious, but I was looking for God.Trough his writing I did find him.I carried his book with me for one and a half year, and I read it every single day.Those days I had crazy lot of energies, I don`t know where from.I worked 16hrs a day, most days for almost a year.I slept 4 hrs, and I bearly needed any food.Of course I am not on drugs, or anything.I was always full of love, and I huged even strangers.I believe I was a very good influence to everyone, as they kept mentioning it to me.I felt I am living heaven on Earth.So I personally believe that Osteen is a choosen one. Some of you guys remind me of those in the Bible, who didn`t believe in Jesus, just because they knew he was son of human.They didn`t believe he was son of God.Now Joel is not excepted as a pastor, because he didn`t study this.Why cannot you open your heart, and just feel it, he really has got it.Now I am studiing the Bible as well. I believe Joel brings glory to God.Thanks for reading, and of course you are entitled to your own opinion.This was mine.
Wow!!! Amazing work on non-sense lol……..Tell me something people, Jesus disciples where they all perfect with no sin??? When Jesus died on that cross (which we all know that he did) what did he die on that cross for? God still choose people to carry his life and word for us sinners to believe….Joel Osteen is no one to make a judgment on who is going to heaven, nor does he have the right to talk about other religions do you know why? Because he is not GOD….. If you ask me WHAT YOU ARE DOING? I would answer “YOU ARE PULLING PEOPLE AWAY FROM GOD AND MISSING THE POINT OF HOW GOD USES JOEL OSTEEN TO MAKE NON BELIEVES BELIEVE, YOU ARE LETTING THE DEVIL IN YOU BY PASSING JUDGMENT ON A MAN BY HIS RICHES BUT REMEMBER…….the riches are for the earth but not for the soul with Jesus Christ OUR Lord….May God bless you and I will pray that this website didnt pull people away from Joel Osteen just as others in the biblical time did to Paul, John, Matthew and so on 🙂
I believe you are all wrong about Pastor Joel Osteen, I saw him not too long ago on T.V. from the Holy Land, and it was a beautiful service and he really preaches well, and he absolutely believes in Jesus Christ. Don’t you know that the Holy Spirit is within him, and the Holy Spirit is what teaches and guides him? Don’t you believe in the Holy Spirit?? The Holy Spirit was, is, and always will be, forever and ever. When Jesus ascended into heaven, He sent His Holy Spirit as He promised He would be with us always. Yes Joel Osteen is good pastor, and a very good motivator, and many of us need that now a days, sometimes, believe that night The Lord lead me to that channel and I believe He knew why. I needed to hear someone like Joel Osteen preach, and it really helped me, I was praising and worshipping the Lord along with them. Don’t be so hard on Pastor Osteen, You sound like you feel very miserable to me. I am a roman catholic, and I have been taught we do not have the right to judge others, the only just Judge is Our Lord, everyone will have to render answers to Him on judgement day. God bless you, really.
Lakewood Church was there for my Dauther when she batteld breastcancer. The Osteens are a wanderful family, helping people. Joel message is for people who know God already, he helps as to learn how to trust God with all our problems. Who wrote that crab anyway. I did not find a signiture anywhere?? Grow up whoever you are and do for God what he wants you to do. Love your nighbor!!!!
Indeed God fights for the innocent!!Tnks guys for not judging Osteen.He is a very nice person.Yes Joel is right,God gave us different talents,skills and so on.He is thus gifted in inspiring others especially on how to handle the daily challenges according to the Godly standard.And let me tell u something my dear brother(the author i mean),nobody serving the devil would WANT TO WIN SOULS TO JESUS CHRIST!NO!!Joel does ask people to give their lives to Christ after his preaching.Who cares anyway if he didn’t go to Bible College or got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning??!Remember,God uses the weak to lead the strong.Please donot spend too much time partnering with the devil,tell him u want to terminate the contract.Ur missing the point!Its not about Osteen,its abt Jesus Christ.I think u owe him an apology!Jesus loves u
I strongly disagree with whoever wroye this junk about Brother Osteen. So what if he didn’t go to a seminary or a relegious college, some of our best preachers didn’t go. Read your Bible the relegious leaders in there didn’t as a matter of fact JESUS was our greatest preacher and what seminary did he go to. So stop bashing Joel and do more reading of the Bible.
Joel brings me closer to GOD with his preachings each week.
Get a life and leave the Osteens alone. GOD bless you any way
