It's interesting that truth is woven in and distorted by the passage you posted. Imperfection is the problem, but the solution is not found in our positive thoughts, only in the only Person who has ever achieved perfection.Chris Denninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09055213862546094730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478279106730902739.post-88247725796807147692009-01-22T22:37:00.000-05:002009-01-22T22:37:00.000-05:00I have a very close friend who buys into this stuf...I have a very close friend who buys into this stuff too, thank you Oprah. It's leading people to an area of false hope. It's self-reliance at it's worst. It's false teaching. I wish more Christians would educate themselves about this stuff so that they could explain, gently and in love, how foolish this thinking really is.Burkulaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15165443676927374968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478279106730902739.post-38419060228159077782009-01-21T11:33:00.000-05:002009-01-21T11:33:00.000-05:00So important, Tony...thanks for posting this.David...So important, Tony...thanks for posting this.<BR/><BR/>David's right..people want POWER and they think what THEY do will give it to them. The power is in letting go and praying........As Jessie said, prideful minds don't allow total humility and this book just fans the flames of a prideful, "I CAN DO IT ALONE", mind.<BR/><BR/>Matt here mentions Osteen...he's cute and so charming! But, I'll never forget watching him on Larry King...an avowed man of the Christian Faith is asked "So, Osteen, are you telling me the only way to heaven is through belief in Jesus Christ!?" I held my breath.."Surely a PASTOr would agree.." But, I heard..<BR/><BR/>"WELL, Larrrrryyyyy..........!" WHY won't people stand up for their beliefs? Other faiths SURE DO!!<BR/>And then HE goes on to very much echo this book you feature here..NAME IT AND CLAIM IT! SEE IT IN YOUR MIND and HAVE IT!<BR/><BR/>WOW. What a lie. I grieve for your friend and her disease and the bill of goods she's buying.Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15989573357446569262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478279106730902739.post-35963227043238864882009-01-19T16:18:00.000-05:002009-01-19T16:18:00.000-05:00TonyI'm glad you posted on this... as the others s...Tony<BR/>I'm glad you posted on this... as the others said, I'd seen the book on shelves, and the cover's catchy design made me want to purchase it, but something's always kept me from it.<BR/>Now I'm glad I didn't - I don't have money to waste on stuff like that.<BR/>keep up the good work - and thanks for visiting my blog as well!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09214441460062591291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478279106730902739.post-40377883793041734202009-01-19T14:44:00.000-05:002009-01-19T14:44:00.000-05:00Sadly, I can relate.

I know a lady who has bought into Osteen's positive thinking spirituality and believes this will bring her husband out of his coma (of nearly a year). People never learn to accept loss. They only learn to try to cling to what they have for as long as possible.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478279106730902739.post-86553639145623619742009-01-17T18:47:00.000-05:002009-01-17T18:47:00.000-05:00Tony, thank you for stopping by my blog and leavin...Tony, thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving your encouraging comments.

What the heck is the church doing?<BR/><BR/>The reason that this stuff sells is that people want power. They want to control that which they can't seem to control. The last I read, the church was to have superior power. (Satan has power too)<BR/><BR/>My point is that the church needs to be the "power plant." Because we have gotten so much into how to fix ourselves and get through the week, that we have lost sight of the relationship with the All Powerful.<BR/><BR/>I have rarely been in a church with regular healing prayer or well managed prophetic teams. Forget even seeing the other gifts in action.<BR/><BR/>I am not suggesting that the Lord is our spiritual bellhop, but if there is power to be had for healing, He is the creator of it. I'd start at His house.<BR/><BR/>Another reason that this junk sells is because the power of positive confession is a biblical principal that will work for anyone. God is sovereign, and it may not always produce the desired result, but it will work. Tests show over and over that positive people live longer, and heal more easily.<BR/><BR/>What is sad is that Jesus is the only One that can "work all things for good." Without an eternal relationship we are simply trying to control the universe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7478279106730902739.post-32455442249163422652009-01-15T14:51:00.000-05:002009-01-15T14:51:00.000-05:00Wow, that is so scary that people will buy into th...Wow, that is so scary that people will buy into that thinking.

It is amazing to me how people will take from the truth and twist it all up. If they would spend as much time and energy in reading, meditating on, and believing in the Word of God and the truths within as they do in trying to reject them...oh Ack. That would just mean they would have to accept all of it. You know the Jesus part and His blood. They want to believe and accept the blessings and power without the acknowledgement and repentance of personal sin and humility. All of that stuff a prideful mind just doesn't want to bow down to. So they mess it up, package it up, and untold numbers of people get caught up in it, suffer, and die. It's sad. Very, very sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
