“ Great Sermon! ”
Years ago I used to read the news for Billy Graham on his radio station in N. C. I began to see how he had compromised and when he was appearing at a Crusade in St Louis, Mo. in 2001 I went to his press conference and ask a question, I said, "Dr Graham, Jesus said in John 15:19 that his followers would be hated by the world but each year I would see the most popular lists, his name was at or near the top. I asked him, "how was this possible?" He replied, "well, it's not that way all over the world." I had laid out a fleece to the Lord. I had said, "Lord, if he asks me why I think that is? I will reply by saying, "The Billy Graham of 1948 used to say that the three greatest threats to our country were Communism, Catholicism and Islam would THAT Billy Graham be at the top of the lists? He never asked so I didn't but I believed the point had been made. It's so sad. We can all learn a lesson from that. It's never easy being a John the Baptist or say things that Jesus said in Matthew 23 but rebuking and exhorting is a lost art in the Christian church today but that is why many are departing from the faith giving heed to seducing spirits and looking for teachers that will itch their ears. |
