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.

“Be Strong in the Grace that is in Christ Jesus” – 2 Timothy Chapter 2 [podcast]


A Good Soldier of Christ Jesus

1  Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.

2  And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

3  Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

4  No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.

5  And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.

6  The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.

7  Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.

8  Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:

9  Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.

10  Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

11  It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:

12  If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:

13  If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.

A Workman Approved by God

14  Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.

15  Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

16  But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.

17  And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;

18  Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.

19  Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.

20  But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.

21  If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.

22  Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

23  But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.

24  And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,

25  In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;

26  And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.

“A Faithful Man shall Abound with Blessings” [podcast]


Do you desire to abound in the blessings of God?

Jesus our LORD taught that as we are faithful with what the LORD has already given us, then, and only then, will He multiply it.

ASK YOURSELF: Are you faithful to abide, to obey Him by obeying His Word? If so, Jesus and the Father are dwelling richly with you and will multiply you according to your proper, wise, faithful stewardship of what is already in your possession – which is from Him. See John 14:21-23.

“A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.” Proverbs 28:20

God is not going to add to or multiply His supply and blessings to anyone who is sitting around, doing the church attendance thing, and not doing His biblically stated will – of loving, tending to, giving to, serving, and blessing others (Matthew 22:37-39). Every true disciple is a doer of the WORD (James 1:22; 1 John 2:3-6, etc.). A true disciple is not known merely by being a church attender, which any old dead fish counterfeit can be. No, the true servant of Christ is known by his supreme love for, and faithful obedience to Christ his King, his “first love” (Revelation 2:4-5).

“For all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee.” 1 Chronicles 29:14

Every good gift and blessing is from God (James 1:17). We take from what He’s given us and we share it with others – whether that be supply, or spiritual blessings in Christ, or material blessings.

“But this I say, He which soweth sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which soweth bountifully shall reap also bountifully. 7 Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver. 8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: 9 (as it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever. 10 Now he that ministereth seed to the sower both minister bread for your food, and multiply your seed sown, and increase the fruits of your righteousness;) 11 being enriched in every thing to all bountifulness, which causeth through us thanksgiving to God.” 2 Corinthians 9:6-11

“Freely ye have received, freely give.” Matthew 10:8

ARE GOD’S BLESSINGS CONDITIONAL?  Yes they are. Here’s but one example of how God’s people forfeited His blessings due to living life on their own terms instead of complying with His.

“Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.” Jeremiah 5:25

Jesus’ Parable of the Talents:
Matthew 25:14-30

14 For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

15  And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

16  Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

17  And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

18  But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money.

19  After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

20  And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

21  His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

22  He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

23  His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

24  Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

25  And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.

26  His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

27  Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

28  Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

29  For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

30  And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Prayer: Holy Father, I come to You in the name of my LORD Jesus. Please make my heart to long for more of You, to love and worship You as my supreme God, Supplier, and Provider. Please unite my heart to truly fear Thy holy Name and to be quickened by Your Word and Holy Spirit unto obedience. Please multiply Your grace to my life as You are working in me and Your body both to will and to do of Your good pleasure. In Jesus’ name, amen.
