Welcome to ApostasyRevealed.com. My name is the Rev Clive J Smith J.P., Ph.D., D.G. This website is a collection of articles that I have personally written that addresses the issue of Apostasy in the Christian Church. Click here for our Doctrinal Statement.





BILLY GRAHAM

Perhaps the "greatest Counterfeit" Christian in the World today is Billy Graham. His misdeeds are many, yet his supporters also vociferously defend him. He is invited into the inner Sanctum of the White House and enjoys the company of Presidents. Most of the Churches including Pentecostals, nominals, evangelicals alike all acclaim him. He certainly has an aura of respectability and many, I believe, have chose not to expose him because of his advancing years & Parkinson's disease. He, and his organization are the masters of "double speak" and he himself is openly referred to on the Internet as "Billy Liar". Let's look at some of the things that he has done.

1. At a New York Crusade he refused entry to "street people" - he did not want dirty people in his meetings. (Contrary to the Nature and teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ.) We should not be partial to anyone coming to Christ.

2. In 1982, he accepted "The Templeton Prize for progress in religion" of about $1 Million US & gave the foreword (along with Robert Schuller, another imposter to Christianity) for and endorsement of Templeton's Book. Templeton is a New Ager & an Occultist and no good Christian would ever endorse a book from such a man. Templeton's New Age Unification principles & teachings were introduced by Robert Schuller in 1986 and Schuller also endorses his doctrines.

3. In The Charter on Masonry and teachings of Albert Pike, it clearly says that they worship Satan who is the God of light, Adonai, and that Jesus is the dark one who opposes all that is good. Billy Graham has reached 33rd level in Masonry which is very high status and his name appears on the Mason Charter under "Famous People". He and his "double speak" Organization deny all involvement in Masonry, yet most of Billy Graham's people are all Masons. A famous Mason named Jim Shaw, was called for induction to the 33rd level, and he has since converted to Christianity. He exposed in his Book, "The Deadly Deception" p.104-105 the fact that Billy Graham was present there at his induction. (Only very High level Masons are allowed to witness such events.) The Publishers of his Book, Huffington House refused to publish it with Billy Graham's name there and he was forced to remove his name and replace it with "a well known evangelist". You can only guess where the pressure came from for the suppression of Billy Graham's name. Robert Schuller (Crystal Cathedral), Norman Vincent Peale (Positive Thinking Guru), and Oral Roberts (Godfather of the 'seed faith' doctrine} all admit that they are 33rd degree Masons.

4. In all his meetings, he never encourages Catholics or Jews to leave their faith and to follow Jesus. He sends them back to their old ways. His thinking is that Jews do not need to be saved, as they are already part of the body of Christ and are "ingrafted into the Christian Church" and actually criticizes anyone who proselytes Jews. (contrary to Rom.1:12; Jn.3:3; Jn.14:6 and many other Scriptures). His Papal links are patent. He received an Honory Doctorate from the Catholic Church. When questioned concerning his own beliefs he stated, "My beliefs are essentially the same as Orthodox Catholics". Graham believes the greatest religious leader in the modern world is the Pope.

5. He has been involved with others, even non Christians in prayer to Allah, the God of the Muslims. Allah is nothing but a demon spirit who holds countless millions in Bondage & error. I ask you, what sort of example does this set for non believers. Surely it would encourage them to continue in the darkness of false religion. At that gathering were many Christians, Jews and Muslims as well as representatives of many other Faiths - together they are praying to the God of Islam as the God of Abraham. What a farce. Graham was quoted in an interview with Schuller as saying that there are "many paths to God" and he respects them all.

6. Of late it is disturbing to see he and his family being promoted by "The Purpose Driven Church", a very spurious organization with links to Rick Warren who went to (guess where) The Robert Schuller Bible College. Schuller has an entirely different 10 Commandments than the Church founded by the Lord Jesus Christ has - you should hear them. The Purpose Driven Life is being promoted by Baptist and Assemblies of God Churches (to their shame) as well as other Purpose Driven Churches.

7. Billy Graham and his Organization for years denied that he had spoken 'anti semantically' in the White House (despite reliable sources reporting otherwise). After some decades, the Nixon Tapes were released with Billy Graham saying, "If they only knew what I think of them (the Jews)" For years a constant stream of denials but in the end truth of his Anti semeticism was exposed.

8. He was rebellious from the start of his walk with God so many decades ago and many Godly men who were his teachers tried to turn his way unto the path of righteousness but he stubbornly refused their counsel and went his liberal way into error and apostasy, whilst labelling those who opposed him as the ones who wanted to lead him down the liberal path. The evidence surely speaks for itself who was liberal and who followed God's Holy Word. In the Book, "The Assimilation of Evangelist Billy Graham into the Roman Catholic Church" by Erwin Wilson, the renowned Bob Jones wrote the foreword saying, "Some of us who grieved over Graham's first downward steps towards compromise with apostasy and biblical unbelief knew that he was pursuing a direction from which there would be no turning back. While we grieved over him and prayed for him, we had to warn men against his ministry as we had warned Billy against his direction."

9. In 1992, on Graham's Radio Program, "Embrace America 2000", after George Bush Senior's now infamous New World Order Speech, he openly advocated that all should embrace "The New World Order". Jesus, when asked by his disciples in Mt.24: 3-4, what would be the sign of his coming and the end of the age, said, "Beware lest any man deceive you." The Church Age is drawing to a close, with apostasy abounding; evil men creeping in unawares Jude 3,4; some coming like angels of light to deceive 2Cor.11:4; all lying signs and wonders 2Thess.2: 9-12; the advocacy of ecumenism & Grahams strong support for The World Council of Churches WCC & The National Council of Churches NCC (where belief in Jesus Christ are not essential), coupled together sets the stage for a "One World Church", a "One World Government" & is being ushered in by subterfuge, by counterfeits pretending to be Godly men but inwardly "they are ravenous wolves".

My brother, my sister, remember the words of Jesus, "Beware lest any man deceive you.

Next - Will the apostates actually be operating in God’s elect church in the last days?

Billy Graham's 33rd Degree Masonic File


Beware of Robert Morey also. Below when he states that it is absurd to label Masonry as a Luciferic organization he covers up for the Masonic Lodge. The Masons usually quote favouribly from Morey's work to show people that Lucifer is not worshipped in the high degrees of Freemasonry. I would like Morey to read Do Freemasons Worship Lucifer/Satan which is a collection of the most esteemed and highest ranking Mason's praises for Satan. My best source believes he is a 'Closet Mason'. His book while it attacks some aspects of the Craft (Witchcraft) defends others and contains many lies.







Morey gives his thanks to the Librarian of the Masonic Headquarters. Strange that the Lodge helped a supposed 'Anti- Mason' Morey do his research at their own 'sacred' Temple. One of my informants got kicked out of a Masonic Temple when he tried to take a photo!
This page is not finished yet. I am going to add a letter from Robert Morey stating that he had a chance to examine Billy Graham's Masonic file soon.
List Of Freemasons Who Have Worked For Billy Graham
    William M. Watson - Director of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. He is a Freemason and also a member of the development council of Masonic run and founded Baylor University. (Billy Graham received a Baylor 'Masonic' Award) He also was a member of the advisory council to the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth which had at least 3 Freemasons on its board of trustees, and likely more.
    David M. McConnell - Director of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. David is also a Freemason. He was also U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.
    Arthur Lee Malory - Co-Chairman of the Billy Graham Crusade Advisory Committee for the 1973 St. Louis Crusade. Arthur is a 32° Degree Freemason and a deacon in the Southern Baptist Church.
The information for this page was taken from "Newsletter From A Christian Ministry" July 1, 1993 by Fritz Springmeier. Many thanks to Fritz as I have used a lot of his material on my web site.
