Who Is Your Favorite End Times Teacher/Pastor?

I was thinking that maybe Osteen does serve a purpose. He might be non threatening enough to encourage an atheist to at least walk through that doorway to belief…

But of course, a true believer needs to keep going and not remain in that doorway…
That’s why I don’t discourage her from watching him. At least she is hearing some scripture and it may give her a curiosity or desire for the real thing.
 
He lost me when he said “it’s the mark” about the jabs and many weeks went by and he never changed his statement or clarified. I felt that was very irresponsible. We know the jabs were bad news but to say they are the mark is, well, reckless. And silly. Since when do people receive a vaccine in their hand or forehead? I know that what he meant was that during the trib having to receive a vaccine could become a requirement to receive the mark, which to me is plausible but there is zero scriptural support for that. I love the man by the way.
Yes, that comment actually made me stop listening to him for a while. Especially since I (very reluctantly!) had gotten the J & J vaccine! But anyway, he did later clarify that he did not mean to imply that the vaccine was the actual mark. Which would be ridiculous to say, since we will be in Heaven with Jesus by that time…

If Joel's on a network that broadcasts other Christian programs, maybe the meat-and-potatoes comes on right after him, and the TV stays on . . .

Depending on the program and where the network or cable company ends it with commercials, there's at least a brief Gospel and a phone number to call at the end . . .

I remember a few times early on him saying the vaccine was not the mark... yet. An important distinction for sure!

I also reluctantly got the j and j and wish I hadn't. But hindsight is 20/20 and you never know how things would have worked out alternatively, so it is what it is.
 
I received a little book called 'Darkness and Dawn' by the Rev Buckhurst Pinch as a gift from the retired Pastor and his wife when I was in AOG. Written by an Anglican Vicar, it's unusual because the Anglican church is not really known for standing for the truth, but the Lord has his people anywhere. Why I really like this book-it was written in 1948 just before the return of Israel and he hits the nail on the head with everything. He grasps the significance of the return of Israel and that it has started the final countdown, he points out what will happen in the years following the return of Israel and before the return of the Lord. Just sad that the author did not live to see everything happen that he wrote about but I believe many if not all of us here will live to see the return of the Lord. God Bless You All :)

Exactly! Maybe we should think of Joel as the “appetizer” before the entree…:giggle:

That is amazing, especially coming from the Anglican Church! But as you said, He has His people everywhere…

Every so often the Anglicans come out with something right. It's sad that it surprises me more when it happens than the other way around, but there are still some believers in that apostacy-ridden church.
 
My neighbor is an Anglican priest. I asked him, “who is Jesus to you?” He looked surprised and almost indignant for a moment and said very affirmatively, “He’s my Savior!”
That was enough for me. 😊
This is probably wrong but I immediately pictured you standing there with your hands on your hips daring him to give you the right answer. :lol:
 
I'll add Barry Awe in with a grain or three of salt. He definitely goes to the silly side, which I appreciate. But lots of good research and study on the Feasts of the Lord, even if it gets really really close to date setting. In most of his stuff there's usually something I disagree with or at least am left scratching my head on, but still worth listening to with my Berean thinking cap on.
