Benny Hinn on Joel Osteen.
A shocker if ever I saw one. Never thought I’d agree with Hinn on anything, but here it is.

Broken clock….
Well, what do you know. I give Hinn credit for that.
Wow
I sure beat up Benny enuff in my day
My old great aunt in “Ewestun” loved him
She used to get on me
LOL
Can you believe that? Shocked me pretty good.
I guess that’s why Osteen always smiles — it is the frozen facial expression resulting from visiting his bank so often.
Thank you very much.
Eventually, people get tired of milk and want meat. So I guess Osteen provides some service. He’s a milkman.
If anything he is skim milk.
Where are all the posters on the Osteen devotional ping list? If they think so much of Osteen, why are they not here, defending him?
Maybe it is because Osteen can’t be defended. They certainly do not want any debate on the Osteen devotional thread.
I think he should have a little chat with Phil Robertson.
Homosexuality is not a threat to his cult.
Sin, is not a threat to his cult, he does not care about any of it.
Bingo. Had Joel been better prepared for this obvious “gotcha” question, he could’ve said something more along the lines of:
“Larry, the sin isn’t based on whether or not you’re born attracted to members of the same sex. Heck, we can even come to a settled conclusion on if it’s biological or a choice! But regardless of how homosexuality comes about, I do believe the sin occurs when the attraction is acted upon. Like it or not, Larry, the Holy Bible repeatedly condemns the practice of homosexuality in both the Old and New Testament. As a Christian, I accept the Holy Bible as God’s Word and I don’t pick and choose only the parts I like, nor do I believe God’s words are subject to amendment, modification, or ratification by Man. If you want to take the issue up with God, Larry, I wholeheartedly believe you’ll get your chance someday when we will all ultimately come before Him for our final judgment. But until then, I accept the creation of Adam and Eve — one woman and one man — as the natural order of human sexuality. There is no other way to continue procreation of the human species and I think that in and of itself speaks volumes.”
I would also add:
“Larry, I believe that all people, including homosexuals, can attain eternal salvation and enter the Kingdom of Heaven when we acknowledge and accept that we are sinners, accept the Lord Jesus Christ as our personal savior, and ask Him for the forgiveness of our sins.”
Sad and true photo of where the libs in this nation are taking us.
Skim Milk that’s been watered down considerably.
That's the problem. Joel isn't prepared. This is the current hot button issue and I can just see him squirming and trying not to offend anyone.
Same thing happened when King asked him about the exclusivity of Jesus. Osteen seemed embarrassed to answer the question and struck out.
Every preacher on national TV gets asked these questions and the majority answer them in a good way.
WHY IS OSTEEN CONSTANTLY CAUGHT OFF GUARD? Because he doesn't know Scripture, that's why.
Well. That’s true.
Agree. Good post.
