On Thursday 2nd of May 1996 Billy Graham and his wife Ruth received the Congressional Gold Medal - the highest honor which Congress can bestow upon a citizen - in the Rotunda of the US Capitol in Washington, D.C.
To most people this is just another award that the Graham's are deserving of, but upon research of the characters in the photographs shown below reveals that some men present are 33 Degree Freemasons. ( present below in the photo are House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Vice President Al Gore, Senator Storm Thurmond, Bob Dole, Senator Jesse Helms and Franklin Graham)

To the left are quotes .. praising Billy Graham

House speaker Newt Gingrich, host for the event, called Mr Graham, "one of the great civic leaders of the 20th Century", who together with his wife have "given up their lifes as a model for serving humanity, and stand as role models for generations to come. By receiving this medal, you join about as exalted a group of citizens as we have in this country, and you frankly honor us by being here to receive it."

In his remarks, Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole said, "When the idea of awarding a Congressional Gold Medal to Dr Graham was first raised, it received something rare in this building - unamimous approval. So too, did the idea of honouring Ruth Graham, Billy's remarkable partner of 53 years and a distinguished communicator of God's power and peace in her own right. There has never been a time when Mr Graham's voice and his message are more revelant," Senator Dole continued. "Billy, I can't even remember disagreeing with you, but I know I speak for millions around the world in saying that no-one will ever preach the Word of God better then you, and no-one will preach it with a better partner at his side than Ruth."

Editor's note: We have deleted a few comments from this page to keep from getting in trouble. But this page was downloaded from the geocity website below and you can tell the endtime ministry had plans to expand the website. Something happened to stop it. He writes:

 

"This page is not finished yet. Also Billy Graham has received other Masonic awards of which I have obtained some photographs and will add them to my pages soon. I will later add more to this page to show more high ranking Masons praising Billy. Please be patient and in time you will see the true Billy Graham which the media and church have tried to mask for so long.
