Maher and Osteen (rerun) Joel Osteen trivializes Christianity and Bill Maher mocks Christianity--which one is worse? Pastor Mike starts the show by looking at Bill Maher's YouTube video titled The War On Christianity (link to video is not provided due to explicit language). In this video Maher blasts Christianity and Christians and claims that if you are a Christian, you are not a rational thinker. On Judgement Day, we will all stand before God, and so will Bill Maher. We should pray that God will open Bill Maher's eyes. If it was not for the Salvation of God, we would be just like Bill Maher (probably even worse). We have been rescued by our Sovereign Lord Jesus and God has saved us from this foolish thinking. We are also saved from the opposite extreme from Bill Maher--Joel Osteen. Osteen, who is proclaimed by many as America's Pastor, is worse than Maher because he tourques the Bible and twists the Scriptures. Osteen cuts the Bible up to fit his personal agenda and to satisfy his personal greed. Pastor Mike reads some headings from his books--including one that says you can make every day feel like a Friday--and shows Osteen's many errors. Pastor Mike finishes the show by responding to a listener's recent e-mail.
