Three Points About Victoria Osteen Being Sued…
Posted by Pastor Kurt | Filed under Christianity In Crisis, My Faith, Randomness, Web Clips
Their has been much news lately about the lawsuit filed against Victoria Osteen (Co-pastor of Houston’s Lakewood Church - one of the largest churches in America and wife of Joel Osteen) for assaulting a flight attendant on a 2005 Continental Airlines flight to Vail, Colorado.
While I have many opinions about Victoria Osteen and the Lakewood church, I will keep them to myself. I would however like to share some thoughts about the law suit and all the publicity surrounding it.
- Christians Need to Guard their Testimony - How precious is the Christian testimony. What I mean by testimony, is the Christian’s demeanor, attitude in the public eye and how people perceive a Christian. All it takes is one fit of rage to destroy a Christian’s testimony. We don’t know exactly what happened on the plane with Victoria Osteen and Continental Airlines flight attendant Sharon Brown, but we can assume that something did occur. Now they are in court and things can only get worse.
- Satan Is Enjoying Every Minute of It - Anytime the Christian religion can get some bad publicity, it is good for the enemy. We never hear about all the good that comes out of the body of Christ, but when one prominent Christian fails miserably, it becomes front page news.
- Jesus Christ is the Real Victim - How a Christian behaves in public, either glorifies Jesus Christ or puts Him to an open shame. How many times has the name Jesus Christ been unintentionally dragged through the mud, because of some careless Christian? - God have mercy on us!
If you have any comments about this subject, I would love to hear from you. - Kurt
