Joel Osteen: Prosperity Gospel's Coverboy!

Wxyz.com writes of Osteen’s enormous popularity, "In the world of religion, he’s achieved the status of a rock star ... ."

The message of Osteen's 12-minute sermons is studiously upbeat: if you keep a right attitude, God will reward you. Or, in other words - "Name it and claim it!"

However, when examined in the light of Scripture and contrasted with the biblical Gospel, Osteen's message is severely lacking in such vital areas as:

1. Salvation,

2. Sin,

3. Sentencing,

4. Sanctification.

If any message ever qualified for the description, "Another gospel", it is surely the one that Joel Osteen proclaims!
