2:04. That’s all I have to say. There’s more people in that arena listening to Joel preach about god, and not question his judgement than there would be if god himself came down and decided to preach a few hours on a Sunday
@Arikm7 so basiclly you went from one end of the world to the other because you have contempt for Christians especially when they organize to do a simple act such as praise God. However I'm sure you will say different. I think it is a beautiful sight and a beautiful thing to have so many Christians gathered together to praise God.
Well Joel works for the evil empire so i don't think they will be trying to blow himself up any time soon. ( for anyone who misses the reference the church and the state generally share the same interests; real collusion for those who want to do useful things with their investigative time)
The best would be to prank the real guy, but have his real security guys in on the prank, and them escorting you into his office while kicking the real Joel out... and at the end show him it’s all a prank lol

Just to clarify, he is not a Pastor, he is a motivational speaker, he has never been to seminary, also he preaches the "Prosperity Gospel" which is totally against Biblical Christianity ✞
Mishelved you can be a pastor without going to seminary.... you do realize that right? 4 commas in a single sentence? Smh, you need a few lessons from the grammatical gospel.
Constitutional Conservative One of the most telling signs of Joel's true intentions comes from how he treated people in Hurricane Harvey. Not only that but his frivolous use of money and donation ticker are incredibly deceptive, tell me why he has a house worth 10.5 million dollars and doesn't instead donate that money. Why does he ask for other people to send in donations to Harvey victims instead of helping with his own funds that he clearly has. He is not a pastor looking to save people he is a con artist working to trick people into following him as if he is a celebrity.
This dude didn't do anything fraudulent bro.. I see what you're trying to say, but fraud isn't the right word. It presumes that this innocent guy has done something wrong when he hasn't..
It probably would have been more accurate to say he was looking for some adrenochrome or something like that maybe a baby to eat because that's what they do the Satan worshippers allegedly
Dude, please don't stop, this is Gold -- you can do this until that dude is old haahha, you found yourself a lifelong career. It is amazing though -- people's reactions, questions of faith and spirituality, deep topics for the best and most important comedy.

Remember how the guests trashed the Superdome at Katrina???? Some rapes, violence and the facility was TRASHED. would you open your private asset up to that kind of liability?????????????

Because doing good with millions of dollars would be too Christian
So you absolutely have to give out every penny?
If they are Protestant based then you know it's shit.
He could probably get hired on Osteen security staff as a body double. Make tons of money.
Jon honestly not a bad idea
But the Joel can get him a ticket right to the big party in the sky......

Aw wadddup council. This gets me stoked
Biggest test would be commandeering one of Joel's private jet for a joyride.
(never trusts the real Joel, he blinks too much)
He doesn't have a private jet.
Agree totally
He is nervous and also trying to remember his memorized message.
"I try to move around piously" hahahaha
I will never trust Joel. He shows too many teeth when he smiles.
Showing teeth is a sign of submission in primates.
It's because he has to make his Dental Arch look larger than his wife's. Otherwise people might catch on to what they really are
MelRay interesting, can you explain further what you mean? They’re both trans?
Joel Osteen was probably a Teeth model for Colgate before becoming a pastor.
He's showing off those veneers you can't afford
Satisfying and mesmerising
LOL. I love that he pronounces it Awe-steen. That's how I'm pronouncing it from now and if someone corrects me I'ma double down, Awwww-steen?
He should go meet Joel and say, "God sent me to take your place, you've done enough. Time for you to leave Earth."
