Houston is the home of Lakewood Church – the mega-church that meets in an old sports arena that seats tens of thousands every Sunday. The leader of that church, televangelist and best-selling author Joel Osteen, gave the opening prayer as Houston inaugurated Annise Parker as mayor last week. Parker took the oath on her grandmother's Bible, held by her partner, Kathy Hubbard.
That's right, Mayor Parker is a lesbian..
Osteen blessed the new mayor, praying at her inauguration:
"God, we just thank you for raising her up. We honor her today and other elected officials . . . We count it a joy and an honor to be here."
Michael Jones over at Change.org celebrated Osteen's appearance at the inauguration: "But give both Osteen and Parker some credit. Today was a day for the history books for LGBT politicians, and also a day where a socially conservative evangelical leader and a progressive lesbian mayor found some common ground in celebrating a victory."

re: 'day for the history books'
History was made 1-4-10 as Houston became the largest U.S. city with an openly gay mayor. History was also made because a perceived-to-be christian 'preacher' sanctioned the 'gala' event and gave the opening prayer. And that's not all. Looking closely and comparing the two photos, a strange irony is apparent: who is using a bible and who is not?
It does not get much more much pathetic than this.
The Word of God foretells of the corrupted condition of the 'outward professing church' as being the final state of Christendom, and tells us that at that time it will merge into and become part of the global system of the Antichrist. This is biblical prophecy (Rev. 3:16-17). The true church, as opposed to the "outward professing" one, is to be separated out from this corrupted parody of religiousness (2 Cor. 6:17).
That time has come. The apostasy of the outward-professing church is absolutely out of control, as epitomized by the likes of Joel Osteen with his brand of 'self' help/empowerment, 'worldly-success' seeking, devoid of scriptural truth, and with no Godly standard to uphold in the first place pseudo-christianity.

If you will not separate, you will become a partaker of her sins, as have the homosexuality-blessing, bible-less 'preachers of Laodicea' circa 2010, of which Osteen is the poster boy. Rev. 18:4

Truly a sign-O-the times. Revolting and not doubt to get worse.
