Every one is NOT a child of God. We are all HIs creation but only those that have accepted His gift of salvation and Jesus as their lord and savior, are His children. We are to judge those that claim to be a christain, but not those that are not saved.No person can condemn anyone to hell,any more than any person can save your soul. Even God does not condemn you to hell.You send your self there, by rejecting His Son Jesus christ.You have free will.Yes Joel needs our prayers. Because God says in His Word “that He will not be mocked”.I have a problem with the way Joel preaches, because he is misleading people,and he is not teaching the TRUTH. For his love of money, he does’nt want to “offend anyone”.It is so sad that so many people are are hell bound, because they would rather listen to this kind of teaching, rather that the TRUTH.The Bible says “that there will be no excuess”. God does love us all,and it is not His will that any should perrish, but He is also a “just” god.
So, what are they, then? Only God can create all this (especially us), thus each of us is "a child of God", as Osteen put it. One cannot be anything else.
And yet with few exceptions, I find more Godly love and truth In Joel’s messages than I see here in the comments section. Its a message thats far from perfect. (soul Prosperity, yes; carnal prosperity, no). but is our God so limited that he can’t use Joel to lead someone into the kingdom?
Do you think some unbeliever is going to see the Gospel of grace in this thread, given all this name calling, arrogance, pride, and slander? The Gospel is GOOD NEWS, and I dont see much here.
