“ Honest appraisal ” His life should provide a cautionary tale for all young ministers out there looking to take the world by storm, and make a name for themselves. You are neither more nor less than what God thinks of you. The fame and opinion of this world of empty show are not only irrelevant, but detrimental to a Christian. If a Christian minister has the fame of this world, he probably is riding fences he ought not to ride.
I think Billy Graham started out with good intentions. He may have originally thought that by making certain deals, such as with the Catholic church, the end would justify the means; that he could parlay his fame into a ministry that would get him to reach unreached peoples. Unfortunately, that's not how fame works. You can't play the devil's game, and win it for Christ. The only way to win against the devil, is not to play.
What he ended up accomplishing is a staggering number of people who think they have "Get Into Heaven Free" cards because they suffered the embarrassment of walking an aisle once, and thus, they never have to worry about it again. Unfortunately, they were never given to understand that they have to pick up their cross and die daily, and that they are bondservants bought with a heavy price. They need our prayers for a real conversion.
“ Billy Graham: Rebellious Apostate ” This sermon shows why Billy Graham was a rebellious apostate. This apostate pastor lead America in rebellion against Yehovah, especially with his appearance on the Crystal Cathedral's Hour of Power on 31 May, 1997. Billy Graham lived up to his reputation as America's Pastor since Mr. Graham partnered with other rebellious apostates across America and around the world. Apostasy in the church is a sign of the coming Antichrist and Billy Graham's apostasy was evidence that America is preparing the world to receive the Antichrist. While this sermon primarily mentions Billy Graham, it is a warning that apostasy is a sign of rebellion against the Righteous Authority of Yehovah and His Anointed Messiah, Yeshua Hamashiach, which is the Name of Jesus Christ in Hebrew.
“ Billy Graham: America's Apostate Pastor ” Billy Graham (November 07, 1918 – February 21, 2018) definitely lived up to his reputation as America's Pastor. Mr. Graham promoted and propagated apostasy from America to all around the world. Only an apostate pastor like Billy Graham would seek worldly honors in Satan's Kingdom like being called "The Pastor Of The U.S. Presidents." Not to mention that Billy Graham had the worldly honor of lying in the U.S. Capitol where the United State Congress is based. Of course, Jesus and His Apostles would be at odds with the dignitaries of this world, including the politicians, presidents, popular musicians, congressional legislators, supreme court justices, professional athletes, and even worldly pastors. Billy Graham's apostasy was most evident in that most evangelicals feel at home in this ungodly world, whereas Jesus Christ and His Apostles were persecuted by the unrighteous world. It is worth noting John 15:18-21 in times like these.
“ Great Sermon! ” Thank you Pastor Thomassian for your straightforward presentation. Of course, we will never know for sure, until we get to Heaven, Dr. Graham's impact on the Gospel presentation. God will use who he will to accomplish His purposes in Salvation. However, Dr. Graham's associations with Liberal theologians and his apparent acceptance of Rome were, of course, problematic. Apparently, he shunned the pleas of Bible-believing fundamentalists in the 60s to abandon his leanings toward befriending liberals. This was his ultimate undoing.
“ FAITHFUL PREACHING ” Exodus 32:30-35 continued....
30 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the LORD; peradventure I shall make an atonement for your sin.
31 And Moses returned unto the LORD, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made them gods of gold.
32 Yet now, if thou wilt forgive their sin--; and if not, blot me, I pray thee, out of thy book which thou hast written.
33 And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.
34 Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them.
35 And the LORD plagued the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.
“ FAITHFUL PREACHING ” Exodus 32:15-35 King James Version (KJV)
15 And Moses turned, and went down from the mount, and the two tables of the testimony were in his hand: the tables were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other were they written.
16 And the tables were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, graven upon the tables.
17 And when Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said unto Moses, There is a noise of war in the camp.
18 And he said, It is not the voice of them that shout for mastery, neither is it the voice of them that cry for being overcome: but the noise of them that sing do I hear.
19 And it came to pass, as soon as he came nigh unto the camp, that he saw the calf, and the dancing: and Moses' anger waxed hot, and he cast the tables out of his hands, and brake them beneath the mount.
20 And he took the calf which they had made, and burnt it in the fire, and ground it to powder, and strawed it upon the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.
21 And Moses said unto Aaron, What did this people unto thee, that thou hast brought so great a sin upon them?
22 And Aaron said, Let not the anger of my lord wax hot: thou knowest the people, that they are set on mischief.
“ Billy Graham: Promoter of Apostasy ” This sermon shows why Billy Graham promoted apostasy from the very beginning of his "ministry" all the way to the end of his life. If we examine Billy Graham carefully, we will realize that Billy Graham promoted apostasy, especially apostate liberal denominations, including those affiliated with the World Council of Churches, theological liberalism, and Roman Catholic popery as well. All this means that The Lord will hold Billy Graham responsible on Judgment Day for promoting the aforementioned apostasy like popery and theological liberalism.
“ Great Testimony ” What a Wonderful story of how God is faithful. This woman’s faith and perseverance challenge me and encourage me. I have had nowhere near the challenges she had and yet have not been as faithful as Kim. Great message!
