Exposed! Joel Osteen Closes His Doors: No Shelter From Harvey Here! (Shocking Video)
8-29-17
Guess he didn’t want his big church getting messy…. false prophets abound! True colors ABSOLUTELY come out during a crisis!
The perpetually smiling pastor told followers on Twitter on Monday to lean on their faith. “Jesus promises us peace that passes understanding,” he wrote. “That’s peace when it doesn’t make sense.”
He later tweeted a message seeking flood-relief donations to his church.
August 29, 2017: As a humanitarian crisis is underway in the Houston and surrounding Houston Texas area, local citizens are in dire need of help, mainly food and shelter during this catastrophic weather event. Joel Osteen didn’t answer the “call” when GOD called, turning his back to those in need. Very selfish, inconsiderate and not what Noah did when GOD called him.
Now you know, he doesn’t appear to “practice what he preaches” does he.. EPIC FAIL
Osteen COULD have been “Modern Day Noah” – Huge church COULD have been an “ARK” for shelter – CLOSED

Joel Osteen, criticized for closing his Houston megachurch to Harvey victims, relents
While not flooded, church spokesman had maintained church is inaccessible, says shelters doing a good job
Televangelist Joel Osteen canceled Sunday services at his Houston megachurch but was reluctant to reopen its doors to Harvey victims — despite the fact that thousands of flooded-out residents are desperately seeking shelter.
The perpetually smiling pastor told followers on Twitter on Monday to lean on their faith.
“Jesus promises us peace that passes understanding,” he wrote. “That’s peace when it doesn’t make sense.”
He later tweeted a message seeking flood-relief donations to his church.
But Osteen’s comforting words didn’t sit well with critics, who wanted to know why the doors to the 16,800-seat arena at his Lakewood Church near downtown Houston are closed.
“You have taken so much money away from your people to live like a king,” entertainment publicist Danny Deraney blasted. “It’s the least you could do.”
Ministry spokesman Donald Iloff had claimed that the property is inaccessible because of surrounding waters.
Osteen was prompted to respond to the criticism. “We have never closed our doors,” he said in a statement quoted by ABC and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. “We will continue to be a distribution center to those in need. We are prepared to house people once shelters reach capacity.”
Washington, D.C.–based writer Charles Clymer tweeted pictures of Lakewood Church, which did not appear to be damaged by floods, and later updated his feed with this shot from inside the church, where air mattresses had been laid out apparently meant to receive flood victims.
It makes no sense to open church doors when the city and county are already treating thousands of flood victims at the nearby George R. Brown Convention Center, according to Iloff.
“It has everything inside there — medicine, doctors, places to sleep,” Iloff said of the convention center. “It’s amazing what they’re doing there to make people comfortable.”
Lakewood is a nondenominational church hosting some 52,000 attendees weekly and is one of the largest congregations in the U.S.

ARE YOU COMPLETELY PREPARED & PROTECTED?
The Bible tells us that every human has sinned and fallen short of the glory of God which is is a heart-penetrating truth. He has provided a way to cleanse us of our sins since we can never be “good enough” to cleanse ourselves. That avenue to God’s grace, mercy and forgiveness (the cleansing of our sins) is through His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ of Nazareth Who is equally God.
Not one of us are guaranteed a “tomorrow”. Has your time run out? Will you continue to ignore the promptings of God the Holy Spirit or have you awakened to the essential need for God, risking eternal damnation?
God the Holy Father, God the Holy Son and God the Holy Spirit are One God, the true, living, uncreated God Who is ever-present, all knowing, all powerful and all loving. He desires that every single person be forgiven, saved and to live eternally with Him. He is our only real protection and His love for you is unchanging. Accept Jesus Christ as your Savior, the true Messiah, today.
You can’t take your salvation for a test drive. You’re all-in or not.
Admit to Him that you are a sinner in need of forgiveness, that you are truly sorry for your sins. Acknowledge that He died for your sins, rose from the dead and lives forevermore. Invite Him into your life and to help you to turn from sin. Rejoice! You just became a Christian! Now trust in Him and get to know Him through the Bible which tells us everything we need to know and through prayer/talking to Him. He eagerly desires relationship with you.

UPDATE FROM HOUSTON: Watching local tv coverage,
Joel Osteen has just relented to huge backlash and
public pressure on social media and has opened
the doors to those in need at Lakewood Church..
Way to go social media warriors! Got it done!
Osteen is STILL one hell of a money loving JERK
“Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide yourselves with purses that will not wear out, an inexhaustible treasure in heaven, where no thief approaches and no moth destroys. 34For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. 35Be dressed for service and keep your lamps burning.” -Luke 12:33-34
Yep, wherever your treasure is (if its the money) there is where your heart will be found.
Here’s one preacher that has fallen short of the glory of God. What a snake!
It makes no sense to open church doors when the city and county are already treating thousands of flood victims at the nearby George R. Brown Convention Center, according to Iloff.
WHAT??? It’s the Churches job to do this in the first place. The only reason the government has to do is because the Church has failed.
I’ll tell you one thing and I don’t care if you like it or not..
3/4 of these shelter’s and supply’s are being taken and used up by illegal’s ..leaving very little room for legal’s.
Illegal’s are criminal’s and should not be first in line for service or protection..PERIOD!
And I don’t want to hear.. this ‘we’re all human’s’ BS!
This is Our ‘LEGAL’ American’s country..We pay taxes..We defend Our country.. We clean up after ourselves ( if you know what I mean ) and We should not be allowed to die..at the back of the line!
His brother just came on in an interview and said that
the reason they didn’t open it up was because the mayor
told everyone to stay off of the streets at the time the storm
got underway, so they didn’t think they could go open it up.
baloney!
too little too late Osteen, we know who & what you are NOW. no excuses!!
I delivered to a church and the preacher wasn’t a Christian but a Urban Removal agent . Calling the police on everyone that goes to church. Then spin the scripture definitions so you go to a FEMA camp to get your head chopped off by a Guillotine. SO every church isn’t the same. Learn the Bible for yourself, it’s like putting a puzzle together, scripture fits with other scripture that supports it’s definition. Think about what you read in a round about way then it’s easier to understand
2Thess 2:10..because they received not THE LOVE (Agape)of the truth, that they might be saved. 11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
123’s of true Christianity v popular & damnable heresies
#1 “ONE” not triune: ……PART 4 & 5 HOW MANY GODS ARE THERE FOR THE ONE GOD TO TALK TO?? Who was Jesus praying to??!?…. The real question should be … How does having multiple different persons keep this one God/being/entity from praying to himself?! (The trinitarian “schizophrenic” “god-head”) The Trinitarians want to have their cake and eat it too as the saying goes. On the one hand they need to say they only worship one indivisible God being/ entity but on the other hand they feel the need for some reason to keep Jesus or God from praying and talking to himself by dividing him up into different persons!?! It never occurs to them that that since there is only one indivisible God to pray too and Jesus is that indivisible God come in the flesh that he would need to talk to himself as to show us how to live, suffer, pray and die for our/ flesh) benefit not his!?!….. So while Trinitarians are quick to complain that God was not talking to himself at Christ baptism or in Gen “let us” they ignore the logical demands of their own theology! If Jesus is the ONE GOD in flesh and the Father is the SAME ONE GOD in heaven then Trinitarianism demands THE ONE GOD is talking to HIMSELF the same “being”! Claiming that God is multiple different persons as the reason for why God is not talking to himself (because God is three different “selfs”) only demonstrates that what they really worship is in fact not a ONE GOD who talks to himself but three different god “selfs”/ and they all talk to each other! When they speak about who God was talking and praying to, they are quick to say “the other person, NOT HIMSELF!” But if you ask them how many gods do they pray to then they will say “ONLY ONE”!?! They expect you to believe that those three different persons are THE ONE GOD-BEING” which is like calling three different cars “THE ONE VEHICLE” (they are text book examples of prov 26:12)
Mark 12:28…Which is the first commandment of all? 29. …Hear, O Israel; THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD: 30. And ………..this is the first commandment….. 31. And the second is….. IF YOU CAN’T GET THIS “FIRST OF ALL COMMANDMENTS” RIGHT, ALL THE REST OF YOUR “FAITH” AND PREACHING ON LOVE & SIN IS MOOT
PART 6: THE ANTI CHRIST….WHERE? WHERE?….EVERYWHERE!!! …..IT”S YOU O TRINITARIAN!
“WHO” it was (what person) that came “IN THE FLESH”, IS THE DETERMINING FACTOR IN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE “ANT-CHRIST”! Even Islam claims Jesus was the Jewish messiah/Christ who was to come in the flesh) they all deny “WHO” it was (what person) that came (to be the Christ) in the flesh!?!…….To deny the father is to deny the son because they are one and the same person that came in the flesh!
JOHN 14: 8-20 ….Note Isaiah 9:6. For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: …: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, … the everlasting Father ….The son, father/Holy Spirit are all the same person, NOT like two different persons working together even as “one flesh” ….The “oneness” between Christ and the father is not comparable to a man & his wife, for only a fool would say “When you have seen me you have seen my wife, how sayest thou then, Shew us your wife?” Notice they asked to see THE FATHER and the response was Jn 14:9 ..“HAVE I BEEN SO LONG time with you, and yet hast THOU NOT KNOW ME, Philip…..Now image some fool trying to claim that statement if you asked to see his wife!?!!? You want to see the FATHER but have I been with you but you don’t know me!?!?!
Jn 14 continued….…………..17. Even THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH; (Jn 14:6 I AM the way, THE TRUTH,) whom the world cannot receive, .. for HE DEWLLETH WITH YOU, (present tense/standing next to them in the flesh) and SHALL BE IN YOU… (future tense “In them”) 18. I will not leave you comfortless: I WILL COME TO YOU (future tense “In them”) Note: The spirit of Christ is the sprit of God and the holy spirit that is why Christ said “I will come to you” (to comfort them, because Christ is the comforter). The spirit was standing next to them in flesh… ….latter it would come to them to be inside of them (inside of their flesh as the spirit we are given)…..that is why. he would send the spirit…… However, Jesus himself here makes the point that the same person who was the HOLY SPIRIT that would come was standing next to them but lets them know “I will come to you again to be Inside of you”
The whole point to Gal 3:20.a mediator is NOT A MEDIATOR OF ONE, (HEIS) but GOD IS ONE. (HEIS) again, point blank, identifies the number of persons of God! The “but” points out the contrast between multiple persons in a mediation party v the “one” of God. God is not like a mediation party with multiple different persons. …..”the express image of his person” ( the person of God; singular not plural).Any attempt to lay claim otherwise is willful ignorance and delusional nonsense
TRINITARIANS CONFESS JESUS /THEY ARE NOT POLYTHEIST BUT ARE MONOTHEIST LIKE A LIAR & THIEF WHO “CONFESS” THEY DO NOT LIE OR STEAL The simple fact is that just because you confess or deny that you are in an adulterous relationship and denounce all forms of adultery has nothing to do with whether or not it is in fact adulterous! .. …A rose by any other name is still just a rose AND calling it a water lily does not change the definition of what a water Lilly or a rose is either!…No, Trinitarians confess & preach literally …”ANOTHER JESUS” 2 Cor 11:4
- Like a thief in your house caught stealing your things insisting he was not there stealing “I CONFESS I am NOT stealing”. You just do not “properly understand” what he is doing/saying. Further, since you never had a “proper understanding” of what he is doing/saying you have no business accusing him since you do not even know what you are talking about in the first place. It is with and in your own ignorance that you base your “false accusations” & “ad homonym attacks” against him…… Ridiculous of course it is ……2Thess 2:11; Titus 1:16; 2Tim 3:5;
…… should have given you a hint, harking back to Satan in The garden…God said you will die…Satan comes along and states no you will be more WISE……today .God said He is one; but Satan’s children come along and say no three is more WISE and humble in the face of God’s grandeur only “a mystery” that can be understood “in faith”. God uses head and right arm to explain the distinctions between father and son.. However, the Trinitarian heretics say to the effect: “NO, that is just a figure of speech, or that is not what God really means. What God is really saying is that God is three different persons”. Fools, hypocrites and blind guides, God said he was One and by your traditions and vain imaginations have taken the words of God and made them of no effect, refashioning God into your image!

#2 SECOND COMING Thou Fool! “I come quickly” so “Hold fast
till i come”… NOT …“in another 2000 yrs I might be coming soon any time now, so hold fast”!?! …those that deny the second coming of Christ in the war of AD70 are practicing a damnable heresy in denying the lord that bought them ( 2Peter 2:1-2 ;2Tim 4:8/ you cant love an appearing you deny& the context is the 2nd coming not the first)… Mat 7:23..”I NEVER KNEW YOU” …..Mat 10:33. But whosoever shall deny me before men……..sound familiar?…. If I said I am coming to your house in this generation when these things happen but no one knows the day or hour what fool would think I might be coming in 2000 years latter!?!? ..2 Tim 4: 4. And
they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be TURNED UNTO FABLES.
2Thess 2: 11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: 12. That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

#3 There is a sharp contrast between THREE groups :
(1) “PREDESTINED DAMNED” who were NEVER written in the book of life ………..Rev 17: 8 WHOSE NAMES WERE NOT WRITTEN IN THE BOOK OF LIFE FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, …as contrasted …EPH 1: 4. According as he hath CHOSEN US in him BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD
(2) “MANY CALLED”= ONLY and ALL SAINTS (those who come to Christ) are written in the book of life … Philippians 4:3… ……Rev 21:27; (Only saints are Called and elect; Rom 1:6-7 et al) This is THE CHRUCH and ONLY these can have their names blotted out of the book of life ….….Heb 12:23 to the general assembly and CHURCH of the firstborn … WHICH ………are WRITTEN in heaven,
(3) THE FEW CHOSEN: Those saints who were alive in group #2 who are now physically dead. They died “faithful” these are the FEW that were chosen faithful…….Rev 3:5. ……; and I
will not BLOT OUT HIS NAME OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, (Ps 69:28) …. These are the FEW that are CHOSEN and now that they have died and are saved then “once saved THEY CAN NEVER BE LOST”

If predestination were true, preaching would be useless. If God has already decided before we were born, why do you trouble us with all this inane blather.
that makes no sense…..it is most certainly true but God does not tell everyone especially all the fools who doubt Him everything He already knows….!?!?
“free will” is a exercise in limitations about things and people/ how they think/ how they work/ and the result of all those interactions…….whereas ….God who is omniscient exercises total control over what was created how it would all interact with himself and each other and all the results of all those interactions……… “free will” is a exercise in limitations where Predestination is the descriptor for the exercise of God’s limitless knowledge and power ……….logically that which is limited cannot superseded the same which is limitless…………….your thinking is human hubris and faithlessness
If predestination is true then all your arguments are falling of deaf ears. Your thinking is in error. If you mean foreknowledge you would be correct, but that has nothing to do with predestination. We are predestined ONLY by foreknowledge but that doesn’t have anything to do with limitations on our free will. Just that God already knows what we will do not the HE decided what we will do.
“Christianity” is not “The Way”.
Correct, Jesus is the Way!
TRUTH be told. You are correct. The little boy profit didn’t want his church to get “dirty”. He does not care about you. Otherwise, he would have immediately told his church is open for shelter.
Time to bring this false profit down. Down into the flood waters whence he came.
What is so funny in all of this is that Mattress Mack, a well known furniture dealer
here in Houston opened HIS DOORS immediately to anyone in need. He came on
the local news and told people that he had beds set up all over the showrooms at
both of his stores, and to feel free to come on out and stay there if you needed to.
He has a million couches, love seats, beds, etc.. and so he had lots of furniture for
needy people to get on during their time of need.. Now this is a great man! He
even gave out his personal cell number over the air to call for those who needed
to call him to arrange to stay there.. Joel Osteen is the man of what God? The God
of greed and selfishness? If a furniture salesman can open his doors, why not
the Church? Pretty pitiful indeed. He finally opened the doors after social meda
tore him up over it..
