It seems like Joel Osteen talks a lot about getting stuff from God, but not about serving God.

Joel Osteen does not preach the whole Bible. For example, Jesus spoke more about hell than the joys of heaven. Why does Osteen avoid topics such as hell, the lake of fire, eternity for the lost, judgement day and the rapture?

Based on what I have watched, I don't really like him, but he is supposed to be the most popular preacher and it is still hard for me to understand why any1 could like such preaching even after I have heard explanations from ppl like Paul Washer. Just wondering what others thought. Martin S- I was thinking the same thing and I saw him on Larry King

And that he's in it just for th money? And do you think Joel Osteen is a wolf and is just nothing more than a motivational speaker?? I used to go to a mega church similiar to Joel Osteen's church. But now I don't go to any church at all. What should I do? Should I look for a different church or not go to any church at all???

i like Joel Osteen, watched him a few years ago and bought 1 of his books. but after hearing from my aunt that he teaches too much about prosperity and seeing ABC covering him and studying him , i have to agree. why doesn't he proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ? i don't think each of his audience is a believer and they already know the gospel so they just need to hear prosperity teachings? if not, how can Osteen talk about God's many blessings and He will give it to you.. without 1st accepting the Son and obeying His commands? i rarely watch his ministry now and i've switched to Dr. Michael Youssef's Leading the Way. have you heard abut him? if not, you should see his ministry, it's pretty awesome !! www.leadingtheway.org thanks !! Miss Love whoever said i hated his accomplishments? i still consider him to be kool, but in terms of a motivational speaker. and God is love, it's not about being in fear 24/7, so not all pastors condemn the world by applying this. however, the consequences of not accepting the Son is what we should fear, as Jesus said to fear Him who can throw your body and soul into Hell. thus i'm just very curious why Joel's not teaching the book of John or Matthew? isn't written that no one comes to the Father except through Jesus, John 14:6? Jesus was here to call the sick, not the healthy. in the same way, Joel should also, and i said 'also,' preach the good news of Jesus Christ's salvation to mankind to a world who has shut Him out. anyway, there are yes and no's to this question. i guess the true answer lies with God. thanks for your input and every1 elses !!
