A blog I follow totally surprised me with a Joel Olsteen clip this morning… Who needs coffee. The shock of agreeing with him was enough!! I’m awake now!!
Check this short clip out! He gets it right!!

**The reason we agree is that we accept what God said on this matter and act on it.
Shalom!



















































































































I’ve heard several preachers make remarks on this subject, most miss the point. Clean & unclean is NOT a HEALTH issue, it is an OBEDIENCE issue. Olsteen has kind of hybridized it, but he DID get the obedience part. Perhaps one day, soon I hope, he will understand Shabbat and holiness. Prayers in that direction. Shalom.

Thanks for commenting. You are exactly right, and I had that very conversation with a friend here a couple days ago. His schtick is ‘health/wealth,’ so I see why he paints it that way, but you rightly point out, the deeper issue is clean/unclean!
Sadly, someone told me (second hand, take with salt…) the Louisiana/Texas shellfish industry put enough pressure on him to make him retract at least parts of this statement… another lesson for us.
Shalom!
