believe their are many paths.” ~ Joel Osteen

Are there “many paths” to Jesus? The Bible never speaks with such language. So, no.

OPRAH TO OSTEEN:
“So here’s the big question: are there many paths to get to the one God?”

OSTEEN:
“I believe that Jesus is the way to the one God. But I believe there are many paths to Jesus. You don’t know how Jesus would reveal Himself to somebody, so I’m not into excluding people. Jesus can reveal Himself to anybody.”

Notice how Osteen is attempting to please everybody but he will never please or entice the true believer in the LORD Jesus Christ with this evil deceptive language and intentioned refusal to be resolute in his speech. In other words, Osteen is saying that “Jesus” may reveal Himself in the form of the pope, the catholic church, Buddha, Mohammed, Hare Krishna, etc.  The demon that is in complete control of him is spewing out confusion which we know is not of God (1 Corinthians 14:33).  “For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.” (1 Corinthians 14:33) This confusion Osteen is operating in clearly tells us that he is “not of God.” Listen to Jesus Christ my friend:

“He that is of God heareth God’s words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.” John 8:47

Who did Jesus just tell us is “of God” and “not of God”? Read John 8:47 above carefully again.

So Osteen says “I believe their are many paths.” Getting saved after reading a Gospel tract, in a church meeting, at a tent meeting, etc., are different methods or venues or places true born again believers repented and were saved. True. Yet, this is not what Osteen is saying. He uses the word “path” for a reason. A different “path” leads one to believe there is someone other than Jesus Christ in salvation’s equation and that God Himself can’t find you Himself and so He somehow needs help. Osteen speaks as if there is another way and yet Christ says He’s the only “way,” not “a way” but “the way.” (John 14:6) Jesus Christ is exclusively the world’s only Savior. Osteen’s choice of words is consistent with all of his TV interviews with Larry King, etc. Just watch and listen closely. The “spirit of antichrist” is on him. No where is he seen saying Jesus is the only way to God. He’s always doing everything he can in word and demeanor to include everyone in the salvation plan of God when most don’t want to be in it. In doing this Osteen is sending millions to hell whom he could have pointed to the one and only LORD and Savior who says:

“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening (devouring) wolves.” Matthew 7:13-15

Okay the Bible tells us that the LORD never changes and that “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.” (Hebrews 13:8) So, we have on record and can observe that the Son of God dealt with so many people who came to Him. WHERE O WHERE in the 4 glorious Gospels do we once see Christ sending a sinful, lost seeking soul to someone else in order to get back around to Him somehow? Nice try Joel. No, Jesus commanded that men come directly to Him – “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”(Matthew 11:28-30) … Check this out in Hebrews 1:

“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had BY HIMSELF purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;” Hebrews 1:1-3

You see, Jesus needed no help from anyone. He is all sufficient, all God! Anytime any person or religion seeks to add anything or anyone to Christ in the salvation equation, you know of a certainty that such a person is an antichrist and operating under the control of “the spirit of antichrist.” (1 John 4:1-3) Anti in the Bible word “antichrist” means in place of. That is, anything or anyone put in place of Christ or any suggestion that the KING of all kings needed help from a depraved sinner to redeem His fallen creation is blasphemy. This is Satan’s attempt to steal the glory due only to Jesus Christ for our redemption.

In the divine equation, let’s do the math okay. God your calculator handy? Add all this up:

“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;” 1 Timothy 2:5

Any questions?

There is no reconciliation at all between the way Jesus and His apostles lived and preach and the way the Osteen’s live and preach. Completely different lives and another message which makes it a false gospel … they are “accursed” (Galatians 1:6-9).

We know when “that spirit of antichrist” is working through a rebel when he speaks contrary to God’s Word (John 8:47; 1 John 4:3). “That spirit of antichrist”anti (in place of) Christ is anything that contradicts His what God’s Word says, working to subvert divinely stated truth while posing as Christ’s minister (2 Corinthians 11:12-15).

FEEDBACK:

He is so blind, how can any person that calls themselves a Christian be fooled by this? well only if they are blind too!!! so sad… he even admitted in his interview with George Stromboulis that his favorite answer to tell people is /I Don’t Know’.” Sandra C.

Laying Up Treasure in Heaven 60 second video #shorts


“but as his part is that goeth down to the battle, so shall his part be that tarrieth by the stuff: they shall part alike.” 1 Samuel 30:24 

A financial investor takes your money and multiplies it for your last few years in this temporal life, right? In contrast, laborers for Christ take your support and multiply it for Christ and themselves for all eternity. In Christ’s eternal kingdom – everybody wins, all the time, forever. King Jesus reigns forever!

“Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 20 But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Matthew 6:19-21

“Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.” Luke 6:38

Paul was not coveting any man’s money – “I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel.” (Acts 20:33) No! He wanted God’s people to invest in Christ’s eternal kingdom – into eternal souls – and by doing so fill their “account” in Heaven. – “Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.” (Philippians 4:17)

God gives the increase of lost souls as “For we are labourers together with God.”

“I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 7  So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. 8  Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 9  For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.” 1 Corinthians 3:6-9 

Gospel train rolling. Team Jesus! We must obey our LORD Jesus’ Great Command saints. You are not alone – God is with you, and us!

“And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:18-20

The Essential of Forgiveness: Are Your Hands Around Someone Else’s Throat? [podcast]


Forgiveness is ultra important to God. If you don’t forgive all others, you are not forgiven of your own sin and are as sure for hell as if you were already there. If you refuse to forgive you damn your own soul, non-negotiably. irrevocably.

GOD SAW IT ALL – HE SAW ALL YOUR SIN AND YET YOU HOLD UNFORGIVENESS TOWARD ANOTHER. IF you want to be forgiven, you MUST forgive. Do it now (Mark 11:25-26). Begin by admitting aloud to God what He already knows – that you are pure evil and have sinned against Him innumerable times! cry out to Him for mercy and declare aloud that no one needs Jesus more than you do!

“Harboring unforgiveness against someone else is like drinking poison and hoping the other person dies.” unknown

The reason people have a hard time forgiving, is that they’ve not yet been brought to the place in God to realize just how wicked THEY themselves are – and how merciful God was when He sent His only begotten Son to die for them “WHILE we (they) were yet sinners.” (Romans 5:6-8)

Outside of Christ’s righteousness, YOU are utterly wicked and depraved in the eyes of a holy God (Jeremiah 17:9; Romans 3, 7). When this finally sinks down into your heart, you will immediately and freely forgive all you’ve harbored ill will against – in utter forgiveness. This breaking all begins when we repent (Acts 3:19).

The sins that should concern us the most, are our own!

People who don’t forgive simply do not realize just how wicked they themselves are.

God will not forgive the sins of any person who refuses to forgive all others – from their heart (Matthew 18:21-35; Mark 11:25-26, etc.). Unforgiveness is non-negotiably, irrefutably, soul damning sin.

Forgiveness is a Non-Negotiable Essential for having a relationship with the LORD and going to Heaven.

ANYone who doesn’t forgive EVERYone is going to hell irrevocably! Matthew 18:21-35

GOD mercifully forgive each of us, His children, not on our own merit or behalf, but rather on the perfect behalf of Christ Jesus! He now requires us to freely forgive all others as He mercifully forgave us. Non-negotiably saints.

We shall not receive divine mercy unless we freely show it to others (Mark 11:25-26). And anyone who denies this calls the son of God a liar.

Father, please forgive my hardness of heart, my obstinance, my heart rebellion. Please forgive my gross sins and grant this heart to be a heart of flesh dear LORD. In Jesus’ name, amen.

“Unforgiveness is poison to your soul. I see many who think by holding hatred and anger they are hurting the person they are mad at! But it damns their own soul! And will destroy you from the inside out! That is God’s judgment if we choose not to forgive.” Karen Cochran

The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant:  A Parable is Simple an Earthly Story with a Heavenly Meaning. Matthew 18:21-35

Mat 18:21  Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? 
Mat 18:22  Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. 
Mat 18:23  Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants. 
Mat 18:24  And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents. 
Mat 18:25  But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made. 
Mat 18:26  The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 
Mat 18:27  Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt. 
Mat 18:28  But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest. 
Mat 18:29  And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all. 
Mat 18:30  And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt. 
Mat 18:31  So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done. 
Mat 18:32  Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me: 
Mat 18:33  Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee? 
Mat 18:34  And his lord was wroth (furious), and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. 
Mat 18:35  So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses. 

Forgiving others is essential to answered prayer. It’s a non-negotiable, divinely required condition.

“Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them. 25 And when ye stand praying, FORGIVE, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses. 26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.” Mark 11:24-26 

Clear it all out…. the past is the past saints … “Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: 32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.” (Ephesians 4:31-32)

God forgave us in our wickedness, “while we were yet sinners”, on the basis of Christ’s righteousness and in spite of our own evil, sinful state (Romans 5:6-8). Now, as His children, we are non-negotiably commanded to freely forgive all. If we don’t, the Father will not forgive us and if we die that way, we shall perish irrevocably (Mark 11:25-26).

ALL it takes to go the eternal hell is to not forgive just 1 person (Matthew 18:21-35; Mark 11:25-26).

You are not forgiven if you don’t forgive – all, from your heart.

When we realize just how “desperately wicked” WE ourselves are outside of the present saving mercy of God, then will we freely forgive all others (Jeremiah 17:9).

IF THE LORD ISN’T A GOD OF MERCY, WE’RE ALL IN TROUBLE…. SELAH. GIVE OUT MERCY LIKE YOU NEED IT – BECAUSE YOU DO!!!

AS you were shown mercy in your sin, God requires that you show mercy to all others – and if you don’t, you lose His divine mercy. Repent. Acknowledge your own utter wickedness and myriad of sins before God in true repentance, and forgive all – now. Memorize James 2:13 now. 

“For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.” James 2:13

A sure way to bring judgment on ourselves is to judge another while we have sin in our own life (Matthew 7:1-5; James 2:13). Repent now.

PRAYER: Dear heavenly Father, I come to You as a vile sinner in and through the precious blood and name of Jesus Christ. I am guilty of infinite sin before You and here and now express to You my thanksgiving for sending Your only begotten Son to die on that cross for me, for my sin of which I am 100% guilty. There is no good thing in me except You LORD Jesus. I am not good but You are dear LORD. Having been freely forgiven by You LORD, I have no business not forgiving all others. In light of how You’ve mercifully forgiven me, I fully understand that You will damn my soul to eternal hell if I refuse to forgive all others of all offenses. Jesus please rebuke and break me to the core of my being, taking away all hardness of heart and granting to me a heart of flesh. Please fill me with Your love Father, in Jesus’ name, amen.
