Billy Graham? What do you think of him?

For someone who preaches about God, he has been known not only to be a liar but has been a pastor to many presidents in office, most of whom initiated wars? I'm just curious as to what people really think of him. In the USA he is regarded as 2nd to God! Dah

i think he is a man who does love God, but has led thousands to believe in a false sense of salvation.... something which he will have to stand before God & answer for.
he, himself, being saved by the sinner's prayer (specifically he was converted in 1936 at a "billy sunday-style crusade)
.... which is NOT biblical.
NOWHERE in church history was such a belief of conversion through the sinner's prayer recorded.

for all the scripture Billy Graham used, he NEVER 1CE used the rebirth formula the apostles used in the 2nd chapter of the book of Acts. this biblical ERROR kept him away from the most powerful conversion event in all of church history.

i do not raise him above the standards of the common man & i have a difficult time understanding why so many people put him on the pedastal of which you speak.

As to his lies he was contributeing to a political party when they receive a tax free basis for being a religon and seperate from religion. When they and everyone knows they support the Republican Party and preach as such.
They can lie about it but the truth remains. They are knee deep in politics and receive a religous tax free statis.
They support big business and religon and them are big business. They are rich millionairs and do very little good with that money. They build churches and hospitals and colleges but they are none of them free. They are money making ventures. Let's fact it they rip people off.

Billy Graham did not believe what he preached. He admitted it to an acquaintance in Nashville many years ago. He said if he preached the truth, no one would come to hear him.

He cared more about the crowds and the money than the truth.

I am a Christian that studies and tries to live by the Bible. I am not one in name only, but can defend what I believe using the Bible. Most here can't.
