“Billy Graham endorsed Mitt for crying out loud!”

Billy Graham has also endorsed Hillary Clinton.
Your move.

In stark contrast to biblical truth, Billy Graham has also said this:

“I used to believe that pagans in far-off countries were lost—were going to hell. I no longer believe that. I believe that there are other ways of recognizing the existence of God—through nature, for instance.” (McCall Magazine Jan. 1987).

“I respect other paths to God,” (Billy Graham, Parade Magazine, Oct 20th 1996)

And then on Robert Schuller’s “Hour of Power” he had this exchange:

Dr. Schuller: “Tell me, what is the future of Christianity?”

Dr. Graham: “Well, Christianity and being a true believer, you know, I think there’s the body of Christ which comes from all the Christian groups around the world, or outside the Christian groups. I think that everybody that loves Christ or knows Christ, whether they’re conscious of it or not, they’re members of the body of Christ. And I don’t think that we’re going to see a great sweeping revival that will turn the whole world to Christ at any time. What God is doing today is calling people out of the world for His name. Whether they come from the Muslim world, or the Buddhist world, or the Christian world, or the non-believing world, they are members of the body of Christ because they’ve been called by God. They may not even know the name of Jesus, but they know in their hearts they need something that they don’t have and they turn to the only light they have and I think they’re saved and they’re going to be with us in heaven.”

Dr. Schuller: “What I hear you saying is that it’s possible for Jesus Christ to come into a human heart and soul and life even if they’ve been born in darkness and have never had exposure to the Bible. Is that a correct interpretation of what you’re saying?”

Dr. Graham: “Yes it is because I believe that. I’ve met people in various parts of the world in tribal situations that they have never seen a Bible or heard about a Bible, have never heard of Jesus but they’ve believed in their hearts that there is a God and they tried to live a life that was quite apart from the surrounding community in which they lived.”

Dr. Schuller: “This is fantastic. I’m so thrilled to hear you say that. There’s a wideness in God’s mercy.

Dr. Graham: There is. There definitely is.”

I would love to hear him explain why he believes he is smarter than the writers of Holy Scripture. I would also like an explanation for why his organization has deleted all references to the LDS as a cult from their website. Do they stand for the gospel truth or not?
