Ecumenical evangelist /papal ambassador Billy Graham said:John Paul II is the moral leader of the world" (Billy Graham, Religious News Service, Sept. 27, 1979). A timely message . . 1) Dr. Billy Graham - The Pope's Cheerleader - Rev. Ian Brown Comment from a listener . . MarcelContact via email (7/7/2005) from Canada “ Needed information! ” Billy Graham is a Christ denying, pope flattering apostate. Graham like fellow apostate Robert Schuller believes that people who have never heard of Christ can be saved. The pope is the AntiChrist and Graham is a friend of the pope. No true servant of God can flatter the son of perdition. You cannot serve both God and Beelzebub. http://www.timef orchrist.ca Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

Billy Graham: Servant of Rome, Not Servant of Christ /Pastor Shaun Willcock, a faithful servant of Christ - Excerpt . . What was Billy Graham?"He was, at the very least, a deceived man, and a false preacher of a false gospel. But there is more to the Billy Graham story, as shown above: a sinister aspect, the evidence pointing to him being a deliberate, but clandestine, servant of the Papal Antichrist. Was he a Jesuit agent, or merely a tool in the hands of the Jesuits? Their tool he most certainly was, and a willing one at that who knew what he was doing for Rome – all the evidence given in this article, and much more besides, proves this beyond all shadow of doubt. But whether or not he was a Jesuit himself, acting under orders and pretending to be a Baptist minister, we do not know at this time, and we may never know. Either way, however, he did more to promote the false “gospel” of Roman Catholicism than any other “Evangelical” has ever done; and he promoted so many other false doctrines, sinful activities, etc., that no true Christian should ever, in any sense, hold him up as having been a great man of God – for this he most definitely was not. He served Antichrist, not Christ. And he did so knowingly, deliberately, and without any conscience about it." |

Promoting the papal Antichrist's doctrine is not “doing the work of an evangelist” (2 Tim. 4:5)Article: Billy Graham: Servant of Rome, Not Servant of Christ By: Pastor Shaun Willcock, Gospel Minister / Bible Based Ministries – South Africa From the Article: In 1973, in his “Key ̓73″ crusade, Graham recommended Roman Catholic literature, especially a biography of the pope which contained hundreds of pages of Roman Catholic doctrine. This did not trouble Graham, who called it “a classic in devotion.” And in the same year he also participated in a Roman Catholic mass! – the central blasphemy of Rome.[37] In fact, on 21 October 1973 he said that he preached in a Roman Catholic cathedral, and he said of the blasphemous sacrament of the mass that it “was a very beautiful thing and certainly straight and clear in the gospel I believe.”[38] Think about this! And ask: if this man believed that the abomination of the popish mass was part of the true Gospel, then was he a Protestant…or a closet Papist? ------- Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD? 2 Chronicles 19:2 Citations: [37]. The Revivalist, June-September 1989. [38]. As quoted in An Open Letter to Dr. Billy Graham, by Wilson Ewin, 5 May 1992. |

This article has to do with the pope as does this relevant and timely article:From Antichrist to Brother in Christ: How Protestant Pastors View the Pope / Jan. 2016 Excerpt: “LifeWay asked 1,000 Protestant pastors in America about their views in a phone survey from September 8–21, 2015, shortly before the pontiff’s visit to the United States.” Here are some of the results of their survey: More than half of evangelical pastors say Pope Francis is their brother in Christ. More than one-third say they value the pope’s view on theology, and 3 in 10 say he has improved their view of the Catholic Church. Nearly 4 in 10 say the pope, known for his humility and concern for the poor, has had a positive impact on their opinions of the Catholic Church. Almost two-thirds view Pope Francis as a genuine Christian and “brother in Christ.” With survey results like these, many of the Pastors surveyed should not be called Protestants, but rather non-, or even more appropriately, pre-Roman Catholics. Historically, Protestants have viewed the Pope as Antichrist. Source: The Trinity Foundation http://www.trinityfoundation.org/horror_show.php?id=59 |

A most relevant and insightful comment re: Rev. Ian Brown's sermon entitled: Dr. Billy Graham - The Pope's Cheerleader https://www.sermonaudio.com/sermoninfo.asp?SID=5200517315 MS (11/10/2017) “ Needful ” Thank you for such a truthful exposition of Pope Billy Graham and his stranglehold on duped professing Christians. Even though this was preached 12 years ago, it's still just as relevant today. MANY are deceived by BG and his BGEA business organization. ------ Ephesians 5:11 "And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them." |

This is what passes for evangelism in the Graham camp . . Billy Graham: Servant of Rome, Not Servant of Christ By: Pastor Shaun Willcock, Gospel Minister / Bible Based Ministries – South Africa After Graham’s death, I received an email from a lady in France, just one of the many thousands who from personal experience knew that Graham did, indeed, send Roman Catholics back to the Papal religion. She wrote: “I was a counsellor and follow-up worker at his 1986 crusade in Paris, and we had strict instructions that if someone had written ‘Catholic’ on the card they filled in after coming forward, we had to give their card to a Catholic church in their neighbourhood. I found that absolutely tragic…. If, as you write, it was a deliberate ploy by the Roman Catholic cult, it worked. Very sad and disappointing. In fact, when I think about it, it reminds me of what Switzerland did during the Second World War, when it sent Jews fleeing the Nazi persecutions back to Germany!”[9] Precisely. But of course, although those poor Jews were sent to their physical deaths, what Graham did was infinitely worse, in that he was guilty of entrenching his “converts” in a religious system of spiritual death. |

On Nov. 11, 1957, Graham told the San Francisco News: “Anyone who makes a decision at our meeting is seen later and referred to a local clergyman–Protestant, Catholic or Jewish.”Christ is not preached in Judaism. Roman Catholicism preaches another gospel which is not the gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, for which they are "accursed". Galatians 1:6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Galatians 1:7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. Galatians 1:8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. This is what passes for "evangelism" in the Graham camp. 1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. |

CES wrote: This spoke volumes: “Those same leaders will even DEFEND the Graham ministry, before they DEFEND the Gospel of Jesus Christ”. As do a few on this very same thread! Yes and that is so very tragic. This is born out by the many "Christian leaders" who have aligned themselves with Billy Graham and papal Rome. for to do so is nothing short of endorsing Rome's gospel, which is no gospel at all. - Gal. 1:6-7 How relevant are the words of the prophet Elijah: 1 Kings 18:21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. ----- As you say, the words of this former Roman Catholic, lance goodall speak volumes, and are words that bear repeating . . "Most “Christian” leaders across the world simply pat the Graham’s on their back, and tell them how wonderful they are, without EVER addressing the FALSE gospel of Rome. Those same leaders will even DEFEND the Graham ministry, before they DEFEND the Gospel of Jesus Christ!" Thanks be to God for this man's bold witness for the truth. Thanks be to God for his true servants who are . . "set for the defence of the gospel." Phil. 1:17 |

"Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD?" - 2 Chronicles 19:2A Testimony of a former Roman Catholic against Billy Graham, BGEA, et al Article: Billy Graham – An Era of Compromise / February 23, 2018 Author: lance goodall I was set free from the false and demonic gospel of the Roman Catholic church, and the Graham organization works hand in hand with them, without missing a beat. The church of Rome is filled with so many false doctrines that it is not even funny. Most “Christian” leaders across the world simply pat the Graham’s on their back, and tell them how wonderful they are, without EVER addressing the FALSE gospel of Rome. Those same leaders will even DEFEND the Graham ministry, before they DEFEND the Gospel of Jesus Christ!We must remember that apostasy has also been prophesied about in the Bible, and the Graham organization, and countless other ministries, are simply flowing along with the scriptures! I encourage YOU to read “Foxe’s Book of Martyrs” and compare theFAITHFULNESS of those Christian Martyrs who stood against the Roman Catholic church, to the APOSTASY of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association over the last several decades. ------ Rev. 18:4 " . . Come out of her, my people . . " |

"Popery is contrary to Christ’s Gospel." - C. H. Spurgeon"Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the LORD?" 2 Chronicles 19:2 1) Article: Revival headliner Franklin Graham has trail of support, polarizing comments For those in the scores of Protestant and Catholic churches supporting it — stuffing envelopes, putting out lawn signs, training to be ushers and counselors — the Aug. 15-17 revival to be led by the Rev. Franklin Graham is something of a Super Bowl of spiritual life here. The festival is also drawing cooperation from a dozen Roman Catholic parishes in the region. Bishop David Zubik said the festival dovetails with calls by recent popes to a ”new evangelization,“ bringing back cradle Catholics who drifted or became estranged from the faith. ”We felt as long as there was a Catholic component to this particular crusade, we wanted to be a part of it,“ Bishop Zubik said. Those who respond to Rev. Graham’s invitation to make a decision for Christ, and who identify as Catholic, will be given the opportunity to go to Epiphany Church — adjacent to the Consol Energy Center — for the sacrament of reconciliation, or confession. ”We’re right next door,“ Bishop Zubik said ------ Citation: 1) Source: Pittsburgh Post-Gazette / Aug. 10, 2014 |

CES, I will be sure to check out the lecture of Dan Greenfield.God be thanked for the discernment He has given me in this regard and for those faithful servants of the Lord who have examined Billy Graham's unscriptural alignment with papal Rome and his compromise of biblical truth. How tragic that countless souls have been led by so-called Christian evangelists into the bondage of Rome to be taught of blind leaders of the blind who proclaim a gospel which is no gospel at all. That is precisely what the late Billy Graham did and what his son, Franklin Graham continues to do at their “crusades” / "festivals". For ex. According to The Florida Catholic (Sept. 1983) 600 people were turned over to the Catholic religion as a result of the Orlando crusade. As Pastor Shaun Willcock of Bible Based Ministries so aptly put it in his well-documented article entitled: Billy Graham: Servant of Rome, Not Servant of Christ “He served the Vatican’s interests! He was the greatest instrument for ecumenism, the Romeward movement among professing Evangelicals, during the twentieth century.” Trusting God to bless the endeavors of the Lord's watchmen cited here who have warned the flock.

Lloyd Jones gave Graham this response: “I said I’d make a bargain: if he would stop the general sponsorship of his campaigns – stop having liberals and Roman Catholics on the platform – and drop the invitation system, I would whole heartedly support him and chair the Congress.

The AntichristC. H. Spurgeon 1834–1892, Baptist pastor of the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London “We must have no truce, no treaty with Rome. War! War to the knife with her! Peace there cannot be. She cannot have peace with us—we cannot have peace with her. She hates the true Church; and we can only say that the hatred is reciprocated. We would not lay a hand upon her priests; we would not touch a hair of their heads. Let them be free: but their doctrine we would destroy from the face of the earth as the doctrine of devils. So let it perish, O God, and let that evil thing become as the fat of lambs. Into smoke let it consume: yea, into smoke let it consume away.” “We are not praying against Babylon, we are not praying against the Man of Sin, we are not praying against the real foe of Britain: it is time we started to pray again. It is the bounden duty of every Christian to pray against Antichrist, and as to what Antichrist is, no sane man ought to raise an objection. If it be not popery in the Church of Rome, there is nothing in the world that can be called by that name. If there were to be issued a hue and cry for Antichrist, we would certainly take up the Roman Church on suspicion, and it would certainly not be let loose again, for it so exactly answers the description. |

1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.1) Article: Billy Graham: Servant of Rome, Not Servant of Christ By: Pastor Shaun Willcock, Gospel Minister / Bible Based Ministries – South Africa His Brazen Promotion of Roman Catholicism Always hovering approvingly in the background: a priest of Rome and Billy Graham On 29 December 1955, he said that he would always tell his “converts” (those who “came forward” at his “altar calls”) to go to the church of their choice, whether Roman Catholic or Protestant! He repeated this on 17 September 1956, in front of 1100 people, and again in 1960.[6] And he kept his word on this matter, decade after decade. Here is just one example: At Graham’s “Mission ̓89″ in England, he was publicly welcomed by Rome’s cardinal, Basil Hume, and had private meetings with him and other Romish bishops.[7] And of the 35000 people who “went forward” when he gave his “altar call”, 2100 were Roman Catholics – and these were referred by Graham to parish priests for “counselling”![8] ---------- Citation: 1) Link http://www.biblebasedministries.co.uk/2018/03/16/billy-graham-servant-of-rome-not-servant-of-christ/ |

Re: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS & ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH – Rev. 17:5“The historic interpretation has been embodied in the most solemn confessions of the biblical world. It forms a leading part in the testimony of martyrs and reformers. Like the prophets of old, these holy men bore a twofold testimony, a testimony for the truth of God, and a testimony against the Apostasy of those professing to be Christian. Their testimony was that Papal Rome is the Babylon of prophecy, “…that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth,” (Revelation 17:18) and that its head, the Roman pontiff, is the predicted “Man of Sin,” or Antichrist.” Author: Former Roman Catholic priest & Biblical Apologist . . the late Richard Bennett Source: Article Online: 'Antichrist Unveiled' https://bereanbeacon.org/antichrist/ Revelation 18:4-5 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
