										<p>The $50-million preacher, Joel Osteen, who lives in a $10 million home, shut the doors to his massive Lakewood Church in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey — even though it can hold up to 16,000 people.</p>

<p class="title">After being shamed on social media pastor Osteen has decided to open up the doors to his megachurch to house some of the flood victims in Houston, Texas.</p>
<p>Just as a reminder, Osteen posted a notice on his website earlier, that the church would be shut over the weekend — and it remained closed Monday.</p>
<p>The pastor said he was unable to offer his venue as a temporary shelter because the highway in front was <a href="https://twitter.com/cmclymer/status/902254954181775360" target="_blank" rel="noopener">flooded</a>.</p>

<p>Well, it appears Osteen&#8217;s PR team made him change his mind. Lakewood Church apparently bought countless air mattresses and are prepping to open their doors.</p>
<p>However, he&#8217;s also asking for donations on his website for <a href="https://www.lakewoodchurch.com/Pages/Hurricane-Relief.aspx" target="_blank" rel="noopener">&#8216;Hurricane Disaster Relief&#8217;</a>, yet doesn&#8217;t state exactly how those funds would be allocated. The donation company&#8217;s <em>BBB</em> rating was lowered to an <em>F, </em>because Joel Osteen doesn&#8217;t disclose how he spend the money.</p>

<p>And he&#8217;s suggesting a minimum of $50. What? $10 isn&#8217;t enough?</p>

						<p>This really upsets me! I LOVE to hear Joel Osteen on the radio, as I&#8217;m disabled, I use him as my minister, but I cannot believe all that I&#8217;m reading! I&#8217;m going to do some checking and if I find out all of this is true, I&#8217;ll be searching for another Pastor! We have listened to Joel at least 1-5 hours Everyday! Also, if this is true, God will punish him! Let us Pray!</p>

						<p>So I even thought about that before he said that about the roads. However there are people who live around there who took pictures all around the church showing that the whole time there was never a time that you could not get to the church. There was never any flooding. Now his people have released photos that show large amounts of water inside a building and show some water on a floor and show some construction work but no one knows if that is inside the church or if those photos were taken during the remodel to turn it into a church or what</p>

						<p>He only let people in after people on fb,Twitter and live interviews threatened to quit giving to his mega million dollar church.This showed his true colors.If he asks for money donations they should go only to the flood victims not him or his church.He doesn&#8217;t need more riches.Wheres his godly donation from his bank account to help the flood victims and disaster relief.Alliwing victims to stay in God&#8217;s house is not a donation from him.</p>

						<p>If everything g is a lie, why not just act and not speak?  Mattress Mac opened his doors right away, and if you are familiar with his 45 location, that whole area floods..  but he was more concerned with what he could offer to help&#8230;&#8230;.actions speak a lot louder than words or excuses..</p>

						<p>Those pictures that they are posting are from the floods from 2001 not from Hurricane Harvey.  I live here and he is handing you false hopes.  He is hungry for money.  He doesnt do the things he says he does for the community.  I know this for a fact because I called his church for help and was denied.  Plus the videos that those men posted are true.  Like I said I am from Houston and have lived here for years.  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7xHr0CCOCU" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7xHr0CCOCU</a></p>

						<p>Vickie J Caldwell&#8230;there are pictures showing very little flooding in front of his ostentatious mega church. I&#8217;m sure Jesus wouldn&#8217;t have a monstrosity like that.

						<p>Vicki! Wake up and smell the coffee girl! Have you read the post? He actually wants people to donate a minimum of 50 dollars. These are the same people that have made him a very wealthy man. If anyone should donate it is himself! Its time to payback the people who made him a multimillionaire! You people who are so brainwashed by this charlatan need to wake up!Sure he opened up the church. This was only after it blew up on the Internet what this greedy pastor did. Closing the church and leaving a message saying he would pray for them! He knew people were losing their homes to the flood and had nowhere to go.sometimes I am just so amazed at how greedy some of these pastors can get. Joel Olsteen has shown his true colors. I&#8217;m sure he is going to lose many parisners that are finally getting wise to his misdeeds.</p>

						<p>Did anyone actually see his interview after the fact? He said he was never turning ppl away but there was a shelter 4 miles away that he was working with. When they got full he opened his church as a place for overflow of ppl but did so cautiously cause their floodgates were almost full but as soon as he deemed it safe, he opened it up. When you&#8217;re not in his situation it&#8217;s easy to cast judgment. But they couldn&#8217;t even get the church workers to the church to run the shelter cause a lot of them got trapped. In the wake of a disaster we shouldn&#8217;t be playing the blame game. What matters is the church is open, and if he is a Christian like he professes the money he&#8217;s accepting donations for will go right to the families or to supplies. Now I do believe that he should donate a huge amount because he can afford to, but other than that I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s fair to blame him for the speed in which he opened his buidling. You say it was social media pressure that opened it, I say he was just getting stuff in order. But that&#8217;s me. I give ppl the benefit of the doubt when idk the full story</p>

						<p>If you would actually look your self instead of posting slander, there is an option to donate OTHER AMOUNT. I just tested it with 1 dollar and it works. Jesus people stop being herded like little sheep and let the media tell you how to live your life. Open up your puny lazy brains and do the research yourself instead of just rolling with what the media spits out.</p>

						<p>The article clearly states that he is SUGGESTING a minimum of 50 dollars. Obviously to anyone without a &#8220;puny brain&#8221; that means you could donate less. So of course your dollar donation worked. What is so hard to understand here?</p>

						<p>Ms. Caldwell  May the day come soon that god opens your eyes and ears to the truth about these preachers who spout the Word of God but do not LIVE by God. They are about the money. A REAL person of God would not hoard all the money collected and not live in a $10 million home and drive expensive cars, wearing expensive clothes. They would be donating huge sums to help the poor, needy, homeless people and not just when they are taken to the carpet and challenged for NOT helping.<br />
That monstrosity that he calls a church is an afront to God and that money could have helped thousands of people with food, clothing and health issues.<br />
He is nothing more then a snake oil salesman preaching The Word while scamming his followers of their hard earned money. He refuses to tell anyone where all his collections go and what charities he donates to and what and who he has helped.</p>

						<p>You are believing a false prophet&#8230;.. actions speak.  Or perhaps you would care to explain how you&#8217;re going to fit that fat ass, false toothed camel through the eye of a needle?   Or maybe you just think the words of Christ aren&#8217;t good enough for you, but Joel Osteen &#8211; with his billions of dollars &#8211; is so much better?   Or maybe you&#8217;re just as false as Osteen is&#8230;..   I judge actions, and acting like all you&#8217;ve been given isn&#8217;t good enough that you have to ask for more, acting like all you have is yours to keep&#8230;. that&#8217;s not acting like a Christian.   And by God if you&#8217;re going to use the name of Christ to enrich yourself while not adhering to the teachings of Christ then FUCK YOU&#8230;. you&#8217;re not a Christian and I WILL say as much.</p>

						<p>There were pictures of &#8220;a&#8221; church that was flooded but proven not to be his. Also there was proven that no flooding was in front of his church either!

						<p>Sorry ladies, he is a con artist. He has taken your money and built himself a $10 MILLION house. He is only about the money&#8230;..for himself. The road in front of the church was not flooded, video proof taken and posted on facebook. The only reason he opened the doors to the church is because of the backlash from Houstonites and the media. He is a money-sucking vampire, sucking money out of you and using it to live like a king. Look up Joel&#8217;s house on Google. The people of Houston have said he is dead to them. The BBB has given him an F because he will not tell them where the donations he is asking for are going. Just google Joel Osteen and you can read the truth.</p>

						<p>I can tell you exactly how he can host more than 10,000 people in a church that used to be a stadium. ON THE HIGHER LEVELS. Remember where the concession stands were? Usually you have a few levels of flat areas to walk to stairs, elevators, etc&#8230; Easily, thousands of matrasses can be set up. He had no intention of offering the church because &#8220;I was never asked &#8211; Joel Olsteen&#8221; What a guy. He is more of a poet than a minister.</p>

						<p>He&#8217;s had 3 or 4 lame excuses for not opening up for the Houston victims, he&#8217;s a blatant liar, only the parking garage had some water, I&#8217;ve seen real time videos and no part of the church was ever flooded!

						<p>You are an idiot if you believe that! The roads were not flooded as he claimed and when he was found out in the lie he finally opened up the doors! He lives in a ten million dollar mansion! And he dares ask others for even more donations? Wow! Your money went straight into helping him live in that huge mansion! The man is a complete fraud and only in it for the money!

						<p>Sorry your &#8220;Disciple&#8221; just showed his true colors. But the facts show there was no flooding outside the Church. Video evidence broadcast on National News.<br />
He is like many so called &#8216;Preachers&#8217; he preaches to fill his own pockets. But he will reap the whirlwind upon his death his god will take a very dim view of his zealotry and greed.</p>

						<p>It was convenient then that it wasn&#8217;t flooded when he asks for $50 donations.  And it&#8217;s probably these people who made him a millionaire.  God didn&#8217;t have a penny  only love and  giving. This man isn&#8217;t doing it in the name if God. Only for his own greed</p>

						<p>Vicky, I live 4 blocks from the church. The roads were clear and accessible, no flooding to the building except for in the lowest level underground parking (just a few inches).</p>
<p>After being shamed, Joel said he&#8217;d open to people &#8220;Once other shelters were full&#8221; and when people came to the door these are the questions they were asked:</p>
<p>&#8220;Are you a member of the church? And if not do you plan to join?&#8221;<br />
&#8220;Are you able now or in the near future prepared to make a donation to help defray our costs?&#8221;</p>
<p>Now you tell me Ms. Caldwell, is this the way a true Christian acts? I say no, he doesn&#8217;t represent my God, never has, never will.</p>

						<p>Look at the evideo footage.  There was no flooding.  Also, doesn&#8217;t it concern you that this man takes money from the poor, but he lives in a 10 million dollar mansion and is personally worth 50 million. Jesus never said blessed are the rich. Christ&#8217;s mission was to help the helpless and preach love, not money.</p>

						<p>The Bible tells us not to judge others. We should always look at the facts and use the brain power that God has given us to make our decisions. First we need to see what a man does and not what he says because what a person does is what they are.  When judging another&#8217;s behaviour, I ask myself what would Jesus do?  I&#8217;m positive His doors would not be closed.  When He was crucified, the only thing he owned was what He had on His body.  These very wealthy pastors, of which Joel  Osteens $750,000,000, ranks second to only Kenneth Copeland, make their money off the backs of their congregations.  I am hard pressed to feel any sympathy for the way Mr. Osteen acted in a very simple situation.</p>

						<p>Open your eyes, Vicky Caldwell.  His place was not flooded . . . many photos to prove this.  He is a selfish con man that did not want his mega church messed up during this crisis.  He only agreed after he was shamed into it.  He is not an ordained minister, he is a motivational speaker and evidently very good at his job because millions of people like yourself think by sending him money, God will bless you.  God blesses those who do good works, not those who make money off of his name.</p>

						<p>He is not very good on the Bible.  The Bible says in at least two different places (Mark AND Michael) that:  It is easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of heaven.&#8221;   Joel Ostenn is NOT going to be going to heaven&#8230;.</p>

						<p>No one is spreading lies.  People went up there and took pictures.  This pictures and videos showed that it was not flooded.  If it was flooded so bad then how come he was able to open it up to the victims?  All he had to do was stick to his story, show proof of flooding and say it wasn&#8217;t safe.  He couldn&#8217;t because others already proved that it wasn&#8217;t flooded.  There was even video of the highway and church not being flooded.  Sometimes you might not want to face facts but you need to.  Don&#8217;t follow false prophets.   My thing is this, he lives in a 10million dollar house.  He doesn&#8217;t disclose how he uses his donations.  Now all that you know of God and Jesus, you think they would be living in a 10mil house? Getting plastic surgery?</p>

						<p>By age eleven, I&#8217;d read the entire bible. I only state this so you&#8217;ll have an idea of how familiar I am with scripture. I&#8217;m a grandmother and I&#8217;ve met perhaps 3 ppl n my entire life that actually have an in-depth understanding of God&#8217;s WORD. The one who possesses the greatest knowledge is Pastor M Williams who lives in all the ways of Christ. I bought &#8216;The Field at Inglis&#8217; Matt. 13:44 ascensionhill.org</p>

						<p>And so is correct English. Without punctuation you make no sense. Besides, what is a minister doing with $57 million dollars in the bank asking for donations. I&#8217;m afraid you are all being duped by this charlatan.</p>

						<p>VICKY J CALDWELL The pictures you saw were years and years old.  I know you love this fake ass man who is far from a saint or a disciple of your said god but he is nothing good.  many videos have been put out there to show your special bot is a lie.  He was sitting home in his $10.5 million home I wish I had more positive about this being but I dont. He doesnt give back to the community like you think he does he only gives to his top donators. I know people including myself who live here in Houston and asked for help and had them close the door on them and hang up on me.  It is not right and NO way to treat people in need.    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7xHr0CCOCU" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7xHr0CCOCU</a></p>

						<p>Vicky the gossip has nothing to do with what he did or didn&#8217;t do and everything to do with the watered down gospel that this man preaches. People are sick of him and sick of how gullible people are that are getting sucked into his church. He clearly does not emulate what Jesus would do, his oppulant lifestyle that he lives while others are homeless make people sick of him. He claims to represent what a true christian is, and it is people like him that give Christianity a bad name. People wonder why God allows him to do the things he does, but it is because God&#8217;s people love it that way. The more watered down the gospel is the more they run to it, throw in some get rich scheme and they will be there. There will always be controversy about Joel Osteen while ever God lets that man have breath. Most of us hope it won&#8217;t be for much longer.</p>

						<p>If Joel Osteen was the God called man that he claims to be with such powers as the apostles had during the book of Acts, able to claim our Lord’s promise in John 14:14 “If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it”, why is it that Mr. Osteen could not perceive what the apostle Paul did whenever Paul warned the centurion and the master and the owner of the ship that they were about to board “Sirs, I PERCEIVE that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives” (Acts 27:10 Emphasis added)? If Joel has the kind of perception that he claims to have then he could claim Acts 27:21-22 and have gotten foreknowledge from God, just as Paul got from God whenever Paul said, “Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this HARM and LOSS. And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: FOR THERE SHALL BE NO LOSS OF ANY MAN&#8217;S LIFE AMONG YOU, BUT OF THE SHIP” (Acts 27:21-22 Emphasis added). Could God not have told Joel if there would have been any hurt or loss of any man&#8217;s life if he let hurricane victims into his church? Could God have not told Joel that there would be loss of the ship but not the loss of any man&#8217;s life? Maybe if God were still speaking to men like this today, Joel would have been more concerned with the &#8216;ship&#8217; that the men&#8217;s &#8216;lives&#8217; that were to be saved. There are words for men like Joel Osteen. Imposter, Charlatan, Deceiver, Liar, False Teacher, Hypocrite! Predictions for the last days of this present dispensation of the grace of God are “But evil men and impostors shall wax worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived” (2 Timothy 3:13 ASV). God&#8217; promise for what will happen at His appearing, even His kingdom. “But they will have no further success; for their folly will be as clearly manifest to all men, as that of the opponents of Moses came to be” (2 Timothy 3:9 WNT).</p>

						<p>I pray that you find a clergy person more worthy of your attention. The Osteens are all about money&#8230; and always have been. He is a motivational speaker only- and quite a good one, I grant you that. He does not, however, do much of anything for Houstonians aside from taking their money and help no one else. It&#8217;s very sad.</p>

						<p>Julia, you said it right. He is nothing more than a motivational speaker! All he ever talks about is hope and how things are going to get better. He&#8217;s misleading thousands of people and it&#8217;s really sad because if they don&#8217;t wake up, get away from him and repent, he will be leading thousands straight to hell along with him and his wife. He refused to speak on what&#8217;s really going on in the world, it always that same old smile, soft voice and talk of hope. If he were a TRUE man of GOD, he would have been quick to open his doors to those poor people. He NEVER had intentions on it until he was pressured. And now he has the audacity to ask for donations??? He&#8217;s filthy rich off deceiving so many, he can&#8217;t even help in a crisis without asking for that dollar! Shame on him! He is no true man of God, I don&#8217;t care what anyone says!!!!</p>

						<p>The water in Houston has not begun to recede.  It&#8217;s still raining.  Multiple videos and photographs show that Olsteen was lying. Olsteen is indeed, being attacked by the world because the world sees him for what he is&#8230;a conman preying on people&#8217;s hopes and fears.</p>

						<p>Nick&#8230; Ha ha ha you are a fool.  You have 2 strikes against you right out of the gate.  1.  You rely on Joel and his staff&#8217;s &#8220;Alternative versions&#8221;&#8230; which have been without a doubt been proven false and he lied.  2. Your second source is &#8220;FOX News&#8221; aka &#8220;FOX News aka  Entertainment and Propaganda,&#8221; all they did was mirror Olsteen&#8217;s spun lies.  Sorry 2 lies don&#8217;t = or make it true.  Good luck following your cult!  Hail Trump&#8230;. suckers!</p>

						<p>You know whats fake?  Religion is fake!  There is no higher power.  We were created by evolution.  You are delusional to believe in something that was created when people were uneducated and were taught by a group of people who deemed what was good and what was evil to control the masses.

						<p>There is a world of difference between Religion and  Christianity. Look at Billy Graham, he is a true  Christian. Does he have a mega church, does he live in a mansion? NO, he does not. Andy Stanley in Atlanta does not build mega churches, he builds many churches around the city to minister to people. He does not live in a mansion.  There are good people and then there are the people who will exploit in the name of Jesus, Doesn&#8217;t anyone remember The Bakkers? The Bible warns about Wolves in sheep&#8217;s clothing. Here is your wolf!  Whatever higher power you believe in they all believe in helping people when they are in need. Not making up lies so you don&#8217;t have to bother. That he is so wealthy and ASKS for MORE donations is disgusting. AS he is disgusting. Jesus is NOT pleased with the Olsteens. This is HIS city and these are HIS people. I cannot believe he is a REAL Texan.</p>

						<p>Aren&#8217;t they all the same Pris?  The Pope the Bishops etc.?making people donate in God&#8217;s name so they will get to heaven. I cut out the middle man years ago.and I&#8217;m still poor but know I&#8217;m not keeping some jumped up bible spouter in the manner he wants to be kept.  God didn&#8217;t have a penny to his name only love in his heart and teaching good.  This man and others like him prey on the minds of people who are vulnerable in ways of the unknown.  And brainwashed into believing that their God won&#8217;t be forgiving if they don&#8217;t give money.</p>

						<p>Humans make mistakes and God understands. Joel never said he is perfect. He is just a man.<br />
Perhaps he realized he was making a mistake and now is making an effort to correct himself.</p>

						<p>Instead of talking to invisible and imaginary sky creatures (praying), how about people actually DO something. Prayer and religions are scams and do not work. It&#8217;s the 21st century and we live in the age of scientific enlightenment. It&#8217;s time for us to put mythology aside and face reality for what it is. As long as gullible people continue to give their money to these scamsters, they will continue to take advantage of the populace.</p>

						<p>Oh Deena, I&#8217;m so sorry your trust in him has been challenged.  He really is not what a Christian  should be.  His God is the almighty dollar.  I hope you find a real Christian preacher to take his place.  And continue  talking to God, our heavenly Father.  I hope you begin to feel better.</p>

						<p>Just go to his website. Its true. Sadly.  &#8220;This is the only country that I&#8217;ve ever lived in, where the priests knock off earlier than I do. Where they lock the doors to Gods house, So that the homeless cant get in.  Because the meek shall inherit the earth but they will not stink out the Lords house. Thats why they are all at McDonalds. &#8221; Catalina Ferro</p>

						<p>IM sorry your just finding out about this scam artist, but come on, all his preaching is always &#8220;god is working behind the scenes&#8221; &#8220;god has a plan for you might not be today or tomorrow but will someday&#8221; and he tells a great story of people that got miracles but never names them, its always a friend or a friend of a friend or a story someone told him. I stopped listening to him when he told of a story of a woman with a 15 year history of cocaine abuse and one day just fell to her knees to god to help her over come and with no rehab whatsoever from that day she was &#8220;cured&#8221; come on what BS</p>

<p>You may enjoy all the knowledge Pastor John Miller has of scripture in his sermons. They aren&#8217;t fluffy but are taught from scripture alone.  We listen to him on the internet as he is a few thousand mile&#8217;s from us. </p>

						<p>Everyone is missing the fact that all of the flooding could have been avoided if Joel Osteen had simply prayed to God and Jesus for it to stop raining so much.  I mean, he obviously has a special divine connection and he probably has Jesus on speed-dial, so why would God flood his mega-church in the first place? Joel Osteen couldn&#8217;t even be bothered to call in a favor from his homey JC while dozens of people are drowning. Pitiful.</p>

						<p>Ms Harris I hate to be the one to tell you this but Joel Osteen is NOT a Pastor and is an insult to all TRUE pastors.  He is a &#8220;motivational speaker&#8221; and NOT a minister of Christ. His father started it and WAS a preacher but when he died Joel took over.  Have you ever heard either Joel or Victoria read from the Bible, quote a Bible verse or, tell the people how great they are and how God loves them and has made it possible for each person to be their own god?  I&#8217;ve heard them talk about the latter not the first ones.</p>

						<p>I&#8217;m not a follower of Joel osteen but I do like the way he preaches but after denying the help to those who most needed it at this time he breakes my heart this is in no way Christ like additude yes is true he turned the other way to people and gave a lame excuse to help it wasn&#8217;t till the social media had him by the neck that he decided to open his doors he is a false preacher who has become so rich at the expense of the poor who blindely donate to him just because he uses Gods word to soften people&#8217;s heart and to rich deep into their pockets I do wish people&#8217;s eyes would open and see the reality of ministers like this that become so rich and powerful I know God above will judge them for use I guess his name to gain earthly treasures if you are in need of Christ and his love pray to him directly you don&#8217;t need someone like this to do this  for you he will listen he loves us very much and knows our needs and is aware of our trials and tribulations may God bless you my fiend always in Jesus name I pray amen!</p>

						<p>My thoughts on this is did you ever see how these flood victims take care of the facilities, they completely trash those areas. Just look at the stadiums that housed the flood victims and the condition they were left in. So can see his reluctance of using those facilities to begin with.</p>

						<p>There are people here who can do something about it &#8211; take him to court to have him explain HOW he is following the teachings he is using to be tax exempt.  That fat assed, false toothed camel won&#8217;t fit through the eye of a needle, and he surely should have to pay taxes.  THAT is something that can done about it.

						<p>The guy that owns several mattress stores in Houston opened them on Saturday to provide shelter, and then to provide a safe place to sleep for the Texas National Guard, with nice, new mattresses.  I think I want to go to his church instead of Joel Osteen&#8217;s.</p>

						<p>This guy is just a charlaten and soothsayer. Says what people want to hear. Just look at his lifestyle and study his body language and facial expressions. His eyes do not show sincerety. And the asking of donations is just out of place. Doesn&#8217;t he have enough money to share for the needy? Only the blind and lost believe this  man So sorry.}</p>

						<p>Maybe him not opening his doors is God way of showing everyone what his heart is. Maybe it&#8217;s Gods way of saying Joel&#8217;s took enough of people&#8217;s money. See him for who he is, and as long as people keep donating to him your feeding him. Your money is his income! Stop his income! Put your money where it counts and not pocketed.</p>

						<p>Joel Osteen will get his comeuppance when he meets his maker.  Doesn&#8217;t the Bible say that &#8220;It&#8217;s easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven?&#8221;   Personally I relish thinking of him  burning in Hell for eternity.</p>

						<p>Mr. Olsteen, when I was living in Houston, (born and raised until 1991), I used to visit Lakewood when it was N.E. of the metro on Hwy.90&#8230;YES, when your father was leading.<br />
What would your father say?<br />
Is it at all possible to walk tall, shoulders back &amp; head held high after the absolute disrespecting NON-actions towards those wet, tired, hungry, frightened, displaced HUMAN BEINGS?<br />
YOU keep yourself warm and cozy in  your River Oaks palace as those that put you there bear the pain and suffering.<br />
PAY YOUR DAMNED TAXES!!!<br />
NOW!<br />
Sincerly,<br />
Richard </p>
<p>PS: do you remember that secret fling when we snuck out to the Ripcord? We both were a little bit young and a large bit intoxicated&#8230; did you ever fix the door on your closet?<br />

						<p>You&#8217;re all so judgemental.  First, this story is BOGUS.  The church WAS flooded but it&#8217;s open now.  Joel is a good pastor, but even he can&#8217;t control the weather and there is nothing wrong with him asking for donations to help others.  Get over yourselves!</p>

						<p>The story is not BOGUS as you say!  Check it out before you speak.  Oh the building was wet but not flooded.  Check out the videos of it.  No flood at all.  And no he can not control the weather but he can control his lock and keys and his pockets.</p>

						<p>This is NOT bogus!  There is video footage taken of the entire property from Saturday and Sunday!  NO flooding and NO danger!  It&#8217;s a newer multimillion dollar building&#8230;..im quite sure the roof won&#8217;t &#8220;fall in.&#8221;  Open your eyes!  You people need to stop defending  him and his lack of immediate action.  Large facilities in potential hurricane ( or other natural disaster ) areas are Supposed to have Emergency Preparedness plans in place that can be implemented within 24 hours.  If that church does Not have a plan in place and is asking for More donations to for doing what is right and Christian-like&#8230;.someone better start asking Mr Osteen what he is doing wityh the Millions and Millions of $$ he takes in every year!!  Not to mention, they should have access to hundreds ( at least) of volunteers that were not affected by the hurricane, that could have been available to help prepare the property to serve the needy.  True believers find a way to help without having to be publicly shamed&#8230;after they&#8217;ve been caught in a lie.</p>

						<p>The first century Christians did not charge people. They didn&#8217;t have one man running the congregation either. They had a body of qualified men,  no one putting themself above the others, all brothers.  Jesus said,  &#8220;You receive free, give free.&#8221; No paid clergy.  There is a religion today who follows that same pattern.  Who are they? Visit JW.ORG</p>

						<p>I personally really don&#8217;t like the TV ministries with the &#8220;name-it-claim-it&#8221; false messages about prosperity and divine healings. For example, turn on Rod Parsley at any point in time and play a game where you start counting the number of seconds that pass before Parsley asks you to send in money.</p>
<p>Actors in Hollywood are often classified as liberals, but they have donated large amounts of money. For example, Sandra Bullock isn&#8217;t one of the wealthiest actors, but she personally donated $1 Million to help Texas. It would be nice to see Pastor Joel Osteen personally donate $1 Million of his own money from books he has written that are essentially just &#8220;you can do it&#8221; inspirational messages rather than lessons from the Word of God.</p>

						<p>&#8220;The donation company’s BBB rating was lowered to an F, because Joel Osteen doesn’t disclose how he spend the money.&#8221;  Please share with us the link on how to see this for ourselves.  Inquiring minds want to know!</p>

						<p>I was one of these people who were quick to jump into attack mode until I realized last night it isn&#8217;t him. The fact the roads were flooded and impassable isn&#8217;t his fault. In his defense, asking for a donation is understandable. The financial means it takes to house and care for these people is expensive. It isn&#8217;t him everyone should attack.. Even if he has millions of dollars, it he can&#8217;t do it alone.</p>

						<p>I read 5 or 6 posts and someone had already started the &#8230;You must have voted for Trump crap&#8230;.This is not about politics, it&#8217;s about hungry cold people needing food clothes and shelter. It&#8217;s only about the victims. If Joel has 10 million he could donate 2 million and struggle to live on the eight he had left. Myself and others I know living on SS donated, he can too. I saw a post stating they&#8217;re were over 1000 churches in the Houston area and only 4% opened their doors. Think about it the next time they pass the plate</p>

						<p>A few things:<br />
&#8211; He is NOT asking for donations IN RETURN for hosting survivors.  He is just asking for donations.  TONS of people / churches do this &#8211; this is neither indicative of his being a con artist, nor does it give room for people to say he should bankroll this entire operation from his pocket.  (What he does with these donations, I&#8217;m not sure.)<br />
&#8211; He does NOT take a salary from the church.  Why?  Because he has written many popular books, his first in 2004 which sold 10 million copies.  (Does that change your mind about his mansion?  If you thought the church paid for it, it should.)<br />
&#8211; He does NOT have an F BBB rating.  Instead, his ministry has not provided what is needed / met the requirements to be evaluated by the BBB.  Some people choose not to deal with the BBB.  Much easier to use this to pile on negative press about the guy, however.  </p>
<p>&#8211; Lastly, I am NOT a Joel Osteen supporter.  I am simply a person who does not appreciate being lied to or misled &#8211; whether it be by this article or Joel Osteen (both do a good job of this, in my opinion.)  I do not agree with Joel&#8217;s teachings.  He is a bright, charismatic preacher, but does not teach what the Bible teaches in many cases.  </p>
<p>We are all best served by being given factual, unbiased information.</p>

						<p>DO NOT BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU READ OR HEAR FOLKS! The bottom floor of the church WAS flooded. The reporter that went in and documented that is the brother-in-law of a surgeon who I work with for years. And they had to make sure the structure was stable and safe before bringing people in as that was the responsible thing to . If they hadn&#8217;t and someone have gotten hurt y&#8217;all would be judging him even more than you are right now. I&#8217;ve never had an opinion about Joel Olsteen either way. But the only UGLINESS I have seen coming out of Harvey has been towards Joel Olsteen over these rumors coming from the media, from social media and from thousands of people,many who identify themselves as Christians. Go figure! And even if he did make a mistake by not opening day 1, which I don&#8217;t think he did, no one is perfect yet there seems to be a lot of perfect people here casting that first stone!</p>

						<p>I don&#8217;t care if the church was flooded or not. This is a GREAT opportunity for us reasonable people to point out that the days of myths and fairy tales are long over. The new atheism movement has taken over and the days for the religionists and magicians are over.  Simply put, there are NO GODS or magic. It&#8217;s the 21st century and it&#8217;s the age of scientific enlightenment. The time for bullshit scams are numbered so get used to it!</p>

						<p>Destinee, as one pastor said regarding his church being flooded. There is no way that within 24 hours (conveniently after the internet posts about him refusing to open the doors) that the flood waters receded, building was dry and cleaned up. I am sorry to burst your bubble but I think something was rotten in Denmark there too.</p>
