Prophecy Sign: The falling away from Biblical Christianity
Been quite an interesting last couple of weeks for Mega-Church leader, Joel Osteen. First he said that Mormons were just an odd brand of Christianity, (no they are not). Now he has had the Queen Priestess of the New Age Spirituality in his church; That person being none other than Oprah Winfrey. While not something that is wrong in and of itself, (we would welcome any unsaved person into our church, including Oprah Winfrey), it is very disconcerting to watch the video, (see below), which shows the rousing ovation and cheer she received from an audience of "Christians". As the notation in the attached article mentions, she was cheered for as some sort of Goddess.
Very, very sad to see how the Church has become so deceived in these last days. No longer follows the tenants of biblical Christianity and no longer has any ability of discernment for worldly influences that are entering into their churches.

But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Peter 2:1 NIV
From the article:
Some Christian viewers were a little less than thrilled to see pastor Joel Osteen welcome television mogul Oprah Winfrey to an 11 a.m. service last Sunday at Lakewood Church . "Awesome to have you!" said Osteen, acknowledging the presence of Winfrey and fellow media mogul Tyler Perry, who accompanied her to the service. "We're so honored to have you both here, and we just celebrate and pray for you guys with what God is doing in your lives."
Many Christians have been criticizing Winfrey's appearance at the church, not only questioning her religious beliefs, but also expressing disgust at the apparent girth of Winfrey's celebrity and power. "I am not worried about Osteen as much as about the thousands in the audience who cheered for Oprah as if she were a goddess," said commenter Aurelian Botica in reaction to The Christian Post's original report on Winfrey and Perry's visit to Lakewood Church .
