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?

God Bless You Billy.....there will never be another evangelist like you. You have touched so many lives and Ruth too. God Bless her memory.

“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...

@rdijones

"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

[Rylucero]

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.

[Rylucero]

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.
