@@jameschang2873 Many false pastors, preachers, teachers, etc. exist nowadays. Most followers of Yeshua (Jesus) that I know of, don't follow tv preachers like Joel Osteen, but we hope that he repents and follows Yeshua as well.
Please, that's the last person you will hear from....
I encourage people to watch the interview Justin, the plumber, did for KPRC 2 on December 5th. He wanted Joel to contact him to tell him he did the right thing or talk about what he did in his sermon. He said he was “a little upset” and feels like he is getting “punished” because he didn’t get the reward money. Lakewood Church donated $20k to Crime Stoppers as an award to the tip that lead to an arrest. Crime Stoppers turned around and gave that money to Justin. How is this man surprised they gave him the reward money after he publicly said he thought he deserved it for “doing the right thing”?!
That was Joel's stash. The cops are investigating him now. Bye Felicia.....and hello Honest Plumber!
If the evidence was collected properly, DNA and finger prints should be able to be collected. This could crack the case. Statue of limits be damned. 10 % to the honest plumber.

@A. Pilgrim. How did Ananias and Sapphira get off lightly when they dropped dead? I don't see your logic here. I do agree that a number of televangelists do "make merchandise of peoples' souls" as 2 Peter says. Joel Osteen will get his due at some point. His view of Christ's atonement (the born-again Jesus in hell) is going to earn him eternal destruction.
He can't respond yet. He's trying to come up with an excuse as to how it got there. You're being punished because you weren't supposed to find it!

He is like any tv pastor, he is in it for the money , you don't need his thanks, your honesty is what really matters.
Why he did not keep his mouth shut and took all that money and gave it to a real church to help needy people.

That tax exemption is not 'free', it comes in exchange for the government controlling what is and more importantly what is not preached about in church. So our government thinks controlling what is preached in the church of higher value than taxing them.

You kind of contradict yourself saying don’t expect anything from anyone and then turn around and say “they are supposed to be issuing him a reward”.
Why do people make these pastors rich? Can't they not see with they're eyes what's they're true motivation? And about the plumber? I have no words for him.
So he wants praise and applause for doing what is right ? 🤔 Shouldn’t expect anything for being a good person 👍
You ruined his “just in case”escape money!
Imagine if the pastor would have allowed the people who was flood victims after the hurricane that hit Houston and they found the money. Hurricane Harvey, PPE loan return and stacks of cash in a wall at lakewood.

I go to Lakewood church, Joel Olsteen and is family are good people.who have helped many people (which they show us every week through testimonies and videos from people all over the world, including the recent Kentucky tornado victims) Why does this plumber need praise & recognition? You’re supposed to be modest and humble about the good deeds you do. If he actually listens to the sermon for anything other than his name, he would know that !
