Bible Note: Cyclist, thanks for your kind words and we've missed you! No, I'm not acquainted with the Joel Osteen broadcasts and thus am unable to comment upon them. There are on the airways and on the internet teachers and preachers, both good and bad, genuine and charlatan, true and false; and it is of prime importance that one take every measure to separate the sheep from the goats lest he be led astray into error and false doctrine. It's always good to play the role of a Berean and to measure carefully with God's plumb-line, the Scriptures, whether what we see and hear is true to the eternal word of God or is false and misleading doctrine. Grace, mercy and peace to you, Cyclist, and a belated wish for a good new year. --Hank |
