Osteen speaks out on "GMA" after facing criticism on social media when his megachurch, Lakewood, did not immediately take in Harvey victims, a decision he later reversed.

He wasn't going to open. He was going to let the city spend their money while he sat on his tax exemption until some PR rep told him to get off his ass and open the doors. He's about the almighty dollar NOT the Almighty! When a furniture superstore is more welcoming than a megachurch something is wrong. Joel Osteen needs to learn some ethics from Mattress Mack!

And it’s 2019 if you believe “Jesus Christ” is a white man you are finished lol the Bible tells you the depiction. No way around it! And some people say, I don’t care what color he was . That’s a damn lie because if not, then why the hell did they make him a white man?! And why all the people in the Bible are white? Why all the angels are white?! That what the slave master BEAT into us during slavery. Look it up! And if doesn’t matter, tell your pastor to take that white Jesus image off the walls in your church and put a black Jesus! He won’t because white people will leave that church so quick and it will mess up his money 😂 white people cant see a black man over them! It’s straight facts! It’s proven . Just look at society.

I live two blocks from Lakewood. He is lying. They were not remotely close to flooding. He is right that the main shelter is just a few miles away. I think what happened was he had hoped his church wouldn't be needed; he, like everyone in Houston, didn't anticipate just how much water there would be, especially after the dams were opened. He is lying. Yes, they still provided help with distribution, but Lakewood could've been opened days before and simple wasn't, and there was nothing preventing it from happening.

Heres a true story. In 2017 me, my wife and our 2 friends got stranded in Hurricane Harvey in Houston. We had to walk 2 miles to our apartment in the wind and the rain. I would find an awning for them and walk 100 or so feet in front to make sure it was ok in chest deep water then call them to where I was. I had even considered breaking into an Autozone that was on higher ground just to get my wife and friends out of the elements. By the time we made it we were all shivering amd cold and they were scared to death (for good reason). I will never forgive Joel Olsteen or his church for turning people away who went through this. We literally just wanted a A ROOF. Thats it. Just to get out of the wind and the rain and sit down and not feel impending doom or your car thats just flooded up the road. Thats the kind of people he turned away. Once Houston jumped on his ass he changed his tune. But I promise you they'll never forgive him. He lives in Houston but he will never be a Houstonian.

Assuming everything you say is 100% true. Joel Osteen is not obligated to help or do anything at all. It's his church, his organization. So, if I'm rich and have a lot you think it's mandatory that I help you? No , it's not. The fact of the matter is that he is helping, but I guess it wasn't quick enough for some people. How many people did you house in your home during and after the storm? Joel Osteen is a man NOT God. God will judge him and God will judge YOU. It's very easy to judge people but what are you doing? How many people have YOU brought to Christ? How many people have YOU helped? How much money and resources have YOU made available to people? Joel Osteen don't have to do nothing! He has a choice to help just like anybody else does, that's the real truth. People just assume he is supposed to do this that or the other. The truth is he doesn't have to do anything! Be grateful for what he is doing instead of criticizing him for what YOU think he should do.

The "not obligated to help" argument ^ has isn't the point at all. However, Joel himself stated in the fucking video that the church did flood in 2001, and then the news channel showed pictures from 2001. Fucking Trump supporters always quick to get on someone's ass and state an obvious point. He started letting people in as soon as the flooding from the flood gates started draining. How is this hard for everyone to comprehend? A door is near fucking impossible to open when it's flooded, SO THEY DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE THE RISK WITH 16K PEOPLE IN IT.

I never went down there myself but did see the pictures proving it wasn't actually flooded.

brandonisi There is no need to negatively judge this pastor. There was some water issues and probably needed it taken care of before focusing on bringing thousands of people in. He also stated his staff and members were held up getting due to the flooding and you can't very well accommodate people with no one to assist. They were taken in supplies first to have ready and he had ALSO stated in the beginning, working with the city of Houston, that when the CLOSER places of housing were full to capacity they would start bringing them to Osteen's church. Why is that so hard to comprehend? Have you ever been in charge of taking care of a crowd of people needing everything from clothes, food and toiletries and having it ready to dispense when they arrived? If not, then you don't get it.

Firewall - what is not true? There is no monotheistic god? The god of the OT was a pantheon of 12 annunaki who genetically modified hominoids into the blacks of africa... 24 to 23 chromosomes and the OT is a tale of the clashes of 3 clans of the annunaki..... the god the NT was all made up at the council nicea... and the cross (which came from druid pagan sex worship, represents/represented and erect penis) Where do think the name Jesus came from.. perhaps Heysus (a pagan druid son god) - next time you see your saviour hanging from an erect dick... think of me.... and to top it off... there is no first hand account of Jesus.... all are third party hearsay accounts..... But hey, if you believe you are right for you.. that is all that matters for you......

Maybe some of them. The flood wall is there, built after 2001 when the "lower bowl" (what is that? A run off reservoir basin?) was filled ten feet. You can see in that picture the bowl is empty because of the wall. I think the bigger picture is he contradicted himself so much and it's dubious that it was not safer than every other place around flooding much worse. He just didn't want any legal liabilities should it flood.

He told three different stories in one interview. He slicker then a can of grease. #1 we were flooded we had to wait to the water went down. #2The shelter down the road had their doors open taking in people. #3 His church flooded in 2001and they put up flood walls. So his church wasn't flooded during Harvey. But they just had to be sure before they open their doors to the church. So Joel just admitted that his church was doing nothing during the first couple of days after Harvey. I heard Joel say in another in view that he gave. That nobody asked him to open his church doors. WTH would anybody have to ask a pastor with a mega church. That can seat 16,000 people have to be asked to help his church members and community. I thought that is what pastors and churches do. Feed offer shelter clothes and comfort. To the less unfortunately. Nobody should have to ask. That should be the God in you to want to do it. He is not a man of the cloth he is a man of the bank a nd his wealth. Him and his family were dry and comfortable in their 10 million dollar home in Texas. You could tsken people into your home Joel. He only open his church doors. Because he was beening dragged through the mud on social media and the news. The coward finally open his doors. Over 32,000 people homeless. And he wanted to be asked to do something to help. Jesus!please take the wheel. I am praying for Texas. They will get through this and be better good.

Ok...after reading the article... honestly, I believe he didn't initially open his doors because he didn't want people destroying or taking things from his sanctuary. His response " Houston didn't ask me to open my doors". As a 'watchman'/religious leader of a mega church his door should've been open - asked or not.

You all have to understand that most of Houston was flooded, including main freeways (which is where Lakewood is) and needed to get to Lakewood. NRG didn't open the first day. Opening a shelter takes a team of people. All of you criticizing, what have you done to help? Maybe he didn't donate money, maybe he did? But if he had and made it known. Most people would criticize him for telling the world! When the team leader, of organizing this, was interviewed, mentioned a lot of their staff and volunteers were struck due to flooding.

Look I am not a religious man. In fact I revile any organised religion, but I respect people who do participate in this stuff and actually exercise the teachings that come with it, granted that it's not to anyone elses expense Mister Osteen is not one of those people. A church does not have to wait for other facilities to max out their capacity for sanctuary, nor does it have to be asked to give sanctuary. It should ALWAYS immediately accept those in need. Mr. Osteen may talk away the situation, but actions speak louder than words, especially in times of crisis.
