With our U.S. Economy headed down and people on the brinks of bankruptcy, seems like the seeker sensitive “gospel” is now being widely accepted and Joel is the new Face of the Prosperity gospel and not Christianity. The prosperity Gospel is a false gospel and not a biblical one. To claim that God wants everyone to be healthy and rich is a lie and must be denied by all Christian’s.

God has lots of promises for us in His Mighty Word but being rich and driving a million dollar car is not one. I would earnestly ask Joel Osteen and his followers to take head to the Word of the Living God and stay away from dangerous doctrines. Remain in the Word and do not seek riches. God is great and gives to each as much as He desires and not what we want.

We can find many prerogatives in bible where the Christ claims about his deity.

The first thing when we read through Mark (2:5) we can find, his claims regarding forgiving sins. The paralytic was lowered into the roof by their friends regardless of so many crowds who gathered there and their total faith was Jesus can make miracle and could heal him. Jesus did not react to that person physical condition or his need to heal him. He said “My son, your sins are forgiven” and he was healed.

The second thing, Jesus speaks about judging this entire world in versus of (Mathew 25:31). Jesus sits on his mighty throne and will separate the sheep from the goat. The people will be judged according to their sins and how well they have been serving and carrying the word of God. This is a power in which Jesus can alone exercise.

The third thing which reveals the clear sign of Jesus self understanding during the charge of condemnation filed over him. When reading through bible of (John 19:7) chapter “he has made himself the son of God”. Matthew tells to the high priest to have said at the trial, “I adjure you by the living God; tell us, if you are the Christ, the Son of God” (Matthew 26:63). Jesus commented to this by, “You have said so. But I tell you, hereafter you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.” (Matthew 26:64).
