“Peace and Safety” OR “Sudden Destruction”?

Keeping the Faithful Faithful – Keeping the Circus Wheels Spinning. False Promises, False Hope.

Joel Osteen is a broken record, continually repeating, regurgitating the same lies, promising people that God is about to come through for them, about to bless them. But is He?

AS YOU CAN SEE, THIS GRAPHIC IS A SCREEN CAPTURE OF ONE OF OSTEEN’S LATEST: Sadly, the same people who’ve been following this fraud for years, sit there week after week, year after year, listening to him (not God!) promise them that their “suddenly” is coming but it’s “sudden destruction” and not a sudden blessing – because they are not obeying God on HIS stated terms which is the whole counsel of His Word – which includes true repentance with proof by good fruit, hell, judgment, holiness, and living ready for the return of Christ – none of which can ever be heard from Osteen. They have not studied and obeyed God’s Word for themselves but rather listen to the fairy tale false gospel of the likes of Osteen. So, they have not endured, held themselves accountable to sound doctrine but rather heaped or sat under the lies of circus clowns like Osteen (2 Timothy 4:2-4). Osteen is saying “Peace and safety” but there will be no “peace and safety” for rebels but rather “sudden destruction” and “eternal damnation.” (1 Thessalonians 5:3; Mark 3:29; 2 Thessalonians 2:9-12, etc.)

The wicked are towing the bell of their own destruction due to refusing to be “valiant for the truth.” (Jeremiah 9:3).

“And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD.” Jeremiah 9:3

All who follow false teachers and their false teachings instead of repenting and following Christ according to His Word, will be sent “strong delusion”, be deceived and eternally, irrevocably “damned” because they “received not the love of the truth” but rather took pleasure in the lusts of the flesh – covetousness, greed, love of self and this world, etc. (2 Thessalonians 2:10-12; Mark 4:17-19; 1 John 2:15-17, etc.). | Hell 

“And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love 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: 12 That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.” 2 Thessalonians 2:10-12

The LORD will never bless the person who listens to lies instead of studying His Word for themselves.

“Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.” 2 Timothy 2:15

“Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.” Proverbs 13:13

Just as there is coming or is presently underway a promised but false peace accord between nations, concerning Jerusalem, there is also a promised, not real peace being peddled to the people by the false leaders of our day. This is “the spirit of antichrist” at work, promising something from God while working evil by subverting the people with a message of half-truths (1 John 4:1-3; 2 Thessalonians 2). | Antichrist

“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.” 1 Thessalonians 5:3

Ecclesiastes 1:9 tells us that “there is no new thing under the sun.”

“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9

The false prophets throughout history have done the exact thing to the people of their day that is being perpetrated by the false teachers of our day, the celebrity “preachers.” Regrettably, false leaders are only so popular due to the incessant evil, greed, covetousness, lust, and idolatry of those who follow them. The lavish earthly riches is the temporal reward for these charlatans who mislead souls to hell. “Damnation” shall be their eternity (2 Peter 2:1-3). Paul charged Timothy and us to ….

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; 4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables (fairytales, story tellers).” 2 Timothy 4:2-4

A Rebellious People

“Now go, write it before them in a table, and note it in a book, that it may be for the time to come for ever and ever: 9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law (Word) of the LORD: 10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits: 11 Get you out of the way, turn aside out of the path, cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us. 12 Wherefore thus saith the Holy One of Israel, Because ye despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and stay thereon: 13 Therefore this iniquity shall be to you as a breach ready to fall, swelling out in a high wall, whose breaking cometh suddenly at an instant. 14 And he shall break it as the breaking of the potters’ vessel that is broken in pieces; he shall not spare: so that there shall not be found in the bursting of it a sherd to take fire from the hearth, or to take water withal out of the pit.” Isaiah 30:8-14

Long ago the LORD told on these devils, in detail by the Holy Spirit inspired prophets and apostles. False leaders lie to people by telling them that God is going to bless them and yet the deceiver and his prey have no yet truly repented. The fruit, the proof of true repentance is that the person who repented will deny self, take up the cross daily and follow Jesus (Matthew 3:7-10; Luke 9:23-24, etc.). Watch this:

“They (the false prophets) say still unto them that despise me (the unrepentant), The LORD hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you. 18 For who hath stood in the counsel of the LORD (the Word), and hath perceived and heard his word? who hath marked his word, and heard it? 19 Behold, a whirlwind of the LORD is gone forth in fury, even a grievous whirlwind: it shall fall grievously upon the head of the wicked. 20 The anger of the LORD shall not return, until he have executed, and till he have performed the thoughts of his heart: in the latter days ye shall consider it perfectly. 21 I have not sent these prophets, yet they ran: I have not spoken to them, yet they prophesied. 22 But if they had stood in my counsel, and had caused my people to hear my words, then they should have turned them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.” Jeremiah 23:17-22 

“They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.” Jeremiah 6:14

We see here that false prophets are identified as those who promise people who are living in sin peace. These wolves refuse to preach the essentials of the original Gospel such as repentance and yet they promise peace to the unrepentant. It’s a false salvation without regeneration.

“There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.” Isaiah 57:21

Judgment, not blessings, is coming upon all who are not known of God with the proof of daily obedience.

“And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, 8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: 9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power; 10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.” 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10

Lying Prophets

“Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, the prophets say unto them, Ye shall not see the sword (judgment), neither shall ye have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place. 14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart. 15 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword (judgment) and famine shall not be in this land; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed. 16 And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword (judgment); and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness upon them.” Jeremiah 14:13-16

Have you been misled by Joel Osteen or other pied pipers?

The reason you’ve been deceived, misled by false teachers is because you have not truly repented and therefore you are serving the god of self, and self’s self-serving agenda instead of the LORD’s. This is exactly why you’ve migrated to these ear-tickling frauds the Holy Spirit often warned us to beware of in the Word (Matthew 24:11; 1 Timothy 4:1-2; 1 John 4:1, etc.). When, if you will truly repent, God will grant you a heart after HIM and not to serve self. You will live a crucified life. | Having a Heart after the LORD
