Hillsong’s Brian Houston Post Pic With These False Teachers, Calls them ‘Legends’
Still reeling from the latest scandal to hit Hillsong, where a bombshell report alleges that the church hid nearly $80M dollars from financial regulators, used church funds to enrich the leaders financially, and committed tax fraud and embezzlement, Brian Houston flew down to the United States to meet up with Steven Furtick and Joel Osteen, two of the most notorious racketeers operating in Christendom today, calling them “Legends” in a pic shared on Instagram.
Wife Bobbie Houston, who just sold their house for nearly $5M, is currently selling off her luxury goods and is herself in hot water for joining three others on a family vacation that cost $150,000, would add ” grateful for long distance faithful friends, who are not thrown off course by the winds of adversity, nor the fickle nature of todays dissenting and dividing world. “
Featured with the Houstons are Steven and Holly Furtick. Furtick is the Lead Pastor of Elevation Church. As head of a Southern Baptist-associated, 25,000-member multisite campus with 17 locations, he is known for having the term “narcegesis” (narcissistic exegesis) named after him based on his inability to exegete scripture in a way that doesn’t make every story revolve around him, as well as his penchant for wearing outfits that cost more than most mortgages and buddying up to Trinity-Denier T.D Jakes.
Two years ago, he replaced Kenneth Copeland at the always-heretical TBN, filling the role of the Innkeeper Monsieur Thénardier from the musical Les Miserables (TBN being the Inn), with these “Masters of the house” doing whatever is the theological equivalent of “Charge ’em for the lice/Extra for the mice/Two percent for looking in the mirror twice” in his efforts to promote his brand of prosperity preaching.
He also recently said that ‘God is a Molecular Structure,’ laughed at the notion of ‘Twerking for the Lord?’, went on a Wild, Wild, Willllldd Rant about Betas and Blessings, went on another Rant About Angels that got Weird Quick and screamed ‘I Am God Almighty!’ in a sermon—all that while saying that God Doesn’t Make You into a New Creation.
Also in the photograph are notorious prosperity heretics Joel and Victoria Osteen, two people who couldn’t preach the gospel if their life depended on it, but which apologist Mike Winger still consider brothers and sisters in Christ on account of having an orthodox statement of faith on their website.
Joel never mentions Jesus and only always talks about God in a vague, amorphous sense. There is undoubtedly nothing distinctly Christian or biblical about it. There’s nothing doctrinal or theological about the way he talks about God. Instead, He is an ethereal, shapeless, formless, customizable, singular being thing that is out there called God that functions like a cosmic vending machine whose sole purpose is seeming to bless you and make your life better. Even when he mentions God, it’s not ABOUT God, but it’s about what God can do for YOU.
Legends? We don’t think so.
