LATE LAST WEEK A HOAX WAS POSTED
The Full Story Here: http:// global.christianpost.com/ news/ joel-osteen-resigns-a-hoax- pastor-attacked-with-false -statement-93453/
I re-posted part of the hoax as a "lead in" to this article.
WHAT ARE YOU READY TO BELIEVE IN?
The Post was about Joel Osteen having a "crisis of faith" and resigning which any "man of God" can tell you does in fact happen to every Man of God without exception because we have no faith unless it is tested.
Some actually do "fall away" "do a prodigal" "take a sabbatical" "fast and pray" or in some way do some soul searching.
Even Jesus did this in the Garden of Gethsemane.
SO THE FACT OF CRISIS could have been actual.
The post was hoax.
Interesting enough the HOAX is a good lesson for you and I.
HOW DID YOU REACT TO THE NEWS?
I found some interesting remarks by some people who varied from rejoicing to outright ungodly statements about a Man of God.
(#Note I am not endorsing Joel Osteen I am stating a fact: He is a Man of God and as such is accountable to God).
Oddly as I read the letter I was sad. My first reaction was the Jim Bakker PTL CLUB thoughts that though the man failed the ministry had succeeded in many salvation and people getting to know Jesus.
I thought about Joel and said a quick prayer while I looked for sources to validate the claim.
OBVIOUSLY THE POST WAS FALSE and that was soon easy to tell.
The post also reminded me of the MANY MANY POSTS I tell people are "FALSE" and they get upset.
They have 're-posted' some 'nice idea' they got on the Internet and found on Facebook and often react emotionally to being told their post is false in some way.
AND THEY DON'T LIKE THE TRUTH OF IT BECAUSE THEY WANT TO BELIEVE IN WHAT THEY POSTED
Most people I tell "FALSE" to I know they know better.
They are normal what most would say "good" people on the outside and just played a little "gossip" of "flesh test" without really thinking about it.
BUT THE DAMAGE POSTS CAN DO ARE MEASURED DIRECTLY by the words Jesus said and the goals that should be in our life.
TRUTH.
"...and every idle word man shall speak shall be held accountable to him"
ATTITUDE often is revealed by words; but not always. Transference occurs a lot on FACEBOOK and the INTERNET when a person reads a post in a bad attitude then "PROJECTS" that attitude to the post they are reading or the comment.
THEY SEE what they are FEELING INSIDE.
Another interesting thing about FACEBOOK and REPOSTS is people don't read the post but only "REVIEW" the title.
BASED ON THE TITLE, they will then pass on fact, fallacies, lies, spam, ads, viruses, slander, things they may not do in public, but thinking they are in private, redistribute information they are accountable for.....,
THAT ACCORDING TO RESEARCH more than 50% never read.
WHAT ARE YOU READY TO BELIEVE IN?
Is it the Truth? or just something......
