preachers

Watching 60 minutes , in a moment of weakness/illness , Joel Osteen s interviewed . nice stuff . sadly , a critical point is lost conservative believers would call crucial ; he writes and speaks 'motivational messages' . then , in there , somewhere after the fact , he uses scripture to support his beliefs . sad way to live . ' life coach' ; replacing Jesus words and Holy Spirit's work . without due concern for saving Grace message , he purports to ' have people leave better than when they came'. HHhhhhhhhhmmmmmmm ............
even Byron Pitts caught the lack of biblical teaching , and didn't even use the word 'doctrine' in pointing out deficiencies to Joel . think of it a minute . our world is in serious change , lacking discernment or Spirit leading . we all sin , that isn't my point . the point is , why water down grape juice long before it is fermented . oddly enough , water down grape juice and you will never have the wine . water down Christ message of saving Grace , you will never have a message of salvation to give . follow closely and see , water comes later , for washing and cleansing ......... not diluting , eh??
sometimes defiant people of the world understand more than believers . we forget , " be wise as serpents and harmless as doves." wise ......... yeah , smarter than Byron , for crying out loud .
pops reflecting on passing of generations .......... and wisdom
