Amen! Joel thinks the whitehorse Inn is at the racetrack

Quicken Loans Arena is not private property

great article

I could be very wrong, but to me, that guy comes off as being like a crooked lawyer(I know that’s redundant) or the used car salesman type. I wouldn’t trust him any further than I could throw him.

[SoConPubbie]

Great comparison there with your lists Gamecock.

Might I also add, that the sad truth is that you need to add Eternal Death or Hell to the Cotton Candy “Christianity” list, as those who live by that fake Christianity will not make Heaven.

There is no Salvation in Cotton Candy “Christianity”, and where there is no Salvation, there is no Heaven.

His version of “hope” mirrors our dear leader’s pathetic version......

My Hope is in Christ!

When I returned home, a bit exhausted, I sat down and turned on the television. A few channels into surfing, I stumbled upon Family Feud. I watched three or four survey questions, and five or six attempts to guess the top responses for each. Each time, regardless of the quality of the guess, family members shouted “Good answer, good answer.” Even when the answer was an obviously bad answer, a decidedly miserable answer, the participants wishfully chanted, “Good answer, good answer.” And it hit me just how much like Family Feud is the spectacle of Joel Osteen and his misguided followers: “Good answer, good answer.”

Make no mistake: A good answer is not the Good News.

So do the math: 15 bibles, 1,250 passers by. That’s 1.25% Bible-carrying Osteenites.

I’m with this guy regarding Osteen, but my cell phone has a bible on it. It also is my connection to Blueletterbible, biblegateway and Biblehub. I’ve not cracked a real paper bible in years. I have a couple. If our tech ever collapses I’ll go back to the old fashioned way.

If it is not private property does that mean the government owns it?

[al baby]

More like a cross between a used car salesman and a game show host

[WKB]

Baptist FYI if you’re interested,I’m an Olsteam fan ping

[Dalberg-Acton]

Oleaginous

[WKB]

insert the word :not: a fan. “God Forgive Me”

[do the dhue]

Olsteen said Obama is a Christian and is doing a good job. I don't know Barack Hussein Obama’s heart, but I can tell you that I don't think he is doing a good job. And if Olsteen would mislead the people with his opine of Obama’s job, then in what other ways may he mislead his flock?

[DooDahhhh]

He is nothing but a stupid money maker.

[GeronL]

A government-created “corporation” owns it.

[GeronL]

A government-created “corporation” owns it.

A city-owned “corporation”

[AlbertWang]

I don’t disagree with you about Joel, however, might I suggest that the historical list includes:
Love
Compassion
Pray for enemies
Salvation
Redemption
Faith
Hope
Forgiveness

“Cotton Candy Christianity” is a very nice way to put it.

What it is is damnable heresy.

It’s terrifying to think of what will become of this man when he has to answer to God. I need to pray about this. I didn’t realize the reach he had - just checking out his facebook page and friends who’ve “liked” him made me really sad. Thankfully it’s only two, but that’s two too many.
