“Woe to you, when all people speak well of you, for so their fathers did to the
false prophets" Luke 6.26.
"Don't you know that friendship with the world is emnity with God?" James 4.4.
Read your bibles folks, the world doesn't need evangelists. It is the Holy Spirit who touches us, not mere men like false teacher Graham. Remember the Bible says that God's ways are not our ways and his thoughts are not ours.
Also: "That which is highly esteemed among men is an abomination to God" Luke 16.15.
God bless Billy Graham, the humble farmboy from rural Mecklenburg County, who has had such an amazing life with his Preaching around the world that has impacted so many people, and brought millions to Christ.
TurtleShroom, as one Baptist to another I'm sure you just forgot that in the Bible the word "saint" refers to any Christ follower, not just to those who excell in their walk with Him. I too love Billy Graham. In 1973, after hearing him preach the gospel on T.V., I committed my life to the Lord Jesus. One day in heaven God will say to Billy, "Well done My good and faithful servant"
Pretty video... this man, this family really inspire me to serve God, I mean I see in Billy and Ruth Graham´s life that is possible to live a saint life giving all of me to serve God. Billy Graham is one of my really heros (in two years I hope go out to missions in window 10/40)... You must see the movie... 100% recomended...
Prophets have been called by God to speak for Him and to be His messenger. God speaks to these men who are commanded to reveal to mankind His plan of salvation, His will, His character, and His truth. A prophet testifies of Jesus Christ as the Son of God, that He died for our sins, they preach of repentance, condemnation, judgment, sin, and eternal torment. These are the things that prophets of God do, but that Billy Graham as a false prophet does not.
Billy Graham was asked in a profile for Newsweek Magazine by managing editor Jon Meacham whether those who belong to religions that reject Christ as savior will be saved. Graham responded that those are decisions only the Lord will make, it would be foolish for me to speculate on who will be there in heaven and who won't. Salvation however is based exclusively upon believing in Christ, whom we place our complete trust in for eternal life apart from there is no possibility of being saved.
"Come now & let us reason together, says the Lord. Though your sins are as scarlet they will be as white as snow..." Isaiah 1:18 was the verse God used to reach me the night I listened to Billy Graham preach on T.V. in '73
praise God...see you in heaven friend...God used Billy to reach my children and also my wife...I was saved before I went to my first crusade but he impacted my life in an astounding way...thank you for sharing that
Lord ThankYou for this beautiful couple that reflected your Glory & always pointed to Christ - Be especially close to Billy during this time without Ruth ' & Lord please give me someone that I can can spend the rest of my lifd with that will also reflect your Glory just as Ruth & Billy did
louisalit. Look to Jesus as your source of strength. Do not look to the world. Friendship with the world is an enemy of God. Walk with Jesus the narrow road not the broad road like the people of Indonesia. See the wraths of God being poured out mainly in Indonesia. The people of Indonesia are very heartless and evil.
It's very shallow of you to say such things. You must have had bitterness towards Indonesia or something. Indonesia has 234,693,997 population of people and you call them ALL heartless and evil?
Feel sorry for you,steventansteventan!You have no right to judge people,moreover because your a christian!If you really are a christian please pray for ppl from everywhere and also for you ,and pray to not judge ppl anymore !Blessings!
All the people who doubt Billy Graham or call him false,etc. The message he delivers is not whether Billy Graham,Billy Sunday,Pastor John Whoever is telling is real or false. The message is the following.
Amen! Billy Graham has ALWAYS preached the same message, the simple gospel of Jesus Christ. That anyone who wants their life changed, their sins forgiven, and have eternal life can have it, just for the asking. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Billy Graham and Ruth Graham are loving couple. They are a blessing from God.
I was sad because I heard one preacher preached BIlly Graham will go to hell in you tube. I was also very surprised that Billy Graham made comments with another preacher on salvation. However, salvation is from the Lord Jesus Christ not from any man or pastor for Jesus is the salvation judge. However, work out your salvation with fear and trembling and do not take it for granted.
Growing in a comunist country ....I remember my dad listening to the radio (free europe) every sunday to hear Billy Graham preach ... back in those days anyone listening to that station was severly punished! Oh, how well he spoke! Many, many blessings to the Graham family!
well they made me see there is a bit of billy and ruth graham in all of us if only we take that step of faith well i love the music coz michael w smith is my all time favourite singer he is on talented guy
Whats sad to see is that millions have been touched by Billy Graham, and yet there is only a few posts thanking him/Ruth. Well, I say thank you to you Billy and I pray God sustains you and your entire family during this time of loss. Even tho we know that Ruth is now in a much better place, she will be missed by many. God bless you all and thank you for this wonderful and moving tribute.
You're right....it is sad to see how few postings there are. Billy and Ruth deserve better from the people they have touched but the one that matters most is Jesus and He knows how many have heard the Gospel through Billy and Ruth. I still can't believe she is gone...Billy and family, I continue to pray for you. God Bless.
What a wonderful tribute. My thoughts and prayers are with you, the entire Graham family. I gave my life to Christ when I was 21 and then "life" happened...I thought God didn't want me anymore. I watched a Billy Graham Crusade and it was God speaking through him that made me see that God hadn't given up on me. I asked for forgiveness and have never looked back...just up. Thank you Billy. Ruth was a treasure and will be missed.
Our entire family appreciates everyone's prayers during this time. We (grandkids) have lost our best friend. Make sure to post your story or tribute our website.
I remember meeting Billy at Eurofest 75 backstage, and then 2 hours later I was coming up the steps in the Brussels stadium, and lo, Billy Graham was walking down towards me, and he said "Hello Bill" which was my name too !!

"reason" (?),
How old is planet earth, why the deluge?
why were the Jews chosen? why did it take so long for the message to reach the world? Why so much violence in the Old Testament?
"Sin" exactly what is it? also ignorance? or a human construct to keep us guilty and subserviant to the priestly class?
what have you reasoned about since your conversion 40 years ago?
history will judge Billy differently I feel
the history of "reason" that is!
salvation if there is any is via true reason

Billy Graham is so incredibly amazing. He's a blessing.
I seriously think they should make him a Saint, and I'm Baptist!
He is a full canidate for sainthood. I've never seen one man lead so many to Christ. He's a blessing to the faith, regardless of denomination.
Who has led so many to Christ, who else is attributed to so many saved lives in God's name? I can't think of one since the Apostle Paul.
Who else agrees that Billy Graham should be a saint? Can you petition the Pope?
