What hidden in the dark shall come to the light.

In the year 2008, I sent a letter to their pastors asking for prayers for me and my family.
in return, they sent me a letter asking for CASH DONATIONS to their church!! 
Those practices are NOT Bible based.

I'm tearing out my bathroom wall right now ! Wish me luck !

That is one honest worker. Respect to him for reporting what he found instead of swiping it. The love of money is the root of all evil.

It doesn’t look like a church, it looks like a business complex - which I guess it really is to be honest.

[brandy]

The fact that a church has 600, 000 laying around is absolutely disgusting.

[bittersweet]

Brian Houston, Joel Osteen, God is exposing them for the false teachers they are!

[Gcanno]

If only Osteen and his church were as honest as the plumber.

Olsteen locked people out of his church during that bad flood. Not very Christ like sir.

This shows me how damn honest a real tradesmen is ! I am a mechanic and I have returned cash, extra tools, keys, credit cards etc all found while I was working on peoples cars. Good on ya plumber 👍

“It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves.”

If you're claiming to be a pastor, and your home costs more than your congregation's, something ain't right. Prove me wrong...I'll wait.

When a “man of the book” wears $2000 suits, lives in mansions with several “vacation properties”, and has multiple luxury cars/ man toys, people should question his motives…..Not send him their hard earned money like mindless goats!

[MiamiPushtheLimit]

These wicked, evil, greedy people are not followers of Christ.

[mattdarbyshire]

Remember when this "church" closed it's doors on the public when hoston flooded? Mattress mac opened his and let hundreds of ppl sleep on his brand new mattresses and furniture he was selling at the time. He took a major loss, while Joel Osteen did a p.r. circuit. One's a man of God, the other one is Joel osteen.

[kellycoleman]

$600 k, huh? That’s almost enough for Joel and Victoria to remodel one of their guest bathrooms.

[MeeMee-gzvp]

Lakewood Church should donate that money to help the homeless

[iammrbeat]

Maybe they can start paying taxes now.

[BarbrajoanOriginals]

When will people realize this is a business, not a church. This is a business run by slick, smart business men, and count on people believing what they say.

Joel Osteen is one of those people who is suspiciously "too good to be true." Gives me creepy vibes.
