Billy Graham's sad, downward spiral into the mire and slime of biblical apostasy continues unabated. The famed evangelist's newest outrage is his endorsement of the grotesque New Living Translation of the Bible (formerly called The Living Bible).

In last month's Flash-point newsletter, I reported on Graham's disgraceful action in promoting the false, new bible version. That account was, however, incorrect on one point: The New Living Translation does not begin the Lord's Prayer with "Our Father/Mother in heaven" This had been inaccurately reported as fact in the usually reliable Christian News newspaper (Sept. 30, 1996, p. 7; and Sept. 22, 1996, p. 23) and in the publications of the International Council of Christian Churches.

Researching the facts, we discovered belatedly that it is the New Testament and Psalms Inclusive Edition, published by Oxford University Press, which has the offensive words included in the Lord's Prayer.

Therefore, we are happy to report that Billy Graham has not, so far as we know, ever endorsed the concept of a "Father/Mother God" in heaven.

However, the new Tyndale House Bible version endorsed by the evangelist does have many other atrocities and misrepresentations of scripture within its flawed pages. Unconscionably, the politically correct New Living Translation eliminates the word "man" in what appears to be an attempt to neuter the Bible and to promote radical feminism. This striking example of apostasy in the New Living Translation is found in Genesis 1:26.

Compare for yourself the reliable King James Bible wording in Genesis 1:26 with the unholy version of Billy Graham's new "bible:"

King James Bible: "And God said, Let us make man in our image"

New Living Translation: "Then God said, Let us make people in our image"
The Tyndale House version distorts the meaning of the original Hebrew word, which can only be translated as man, substituting for it the politically correct term, people.
Hillary Clinton, Bella Abzug, Gloria Steinem, Matthew Fox, and the entire gay rights movement will surely love this Billy Graham-authorized departure from the true Word of God. The devil and his human agents will also enjoy what the New Living Translation has done to the prophetic passage in Revelation 13:18. The King James reads: "Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is six hundred threescore and six."

But, in a footnote, the New Living Translation suggests a shocking alternative: the words "Or of humanity." Thus, the passage would read "for it is the number of humanity."

In other words, the reader of this false "bible" is dangerously led to believe that the number 666 can either be that of a man, or it can just be a generic number for all of humanity. What a travesty! Students of prophecy are fed the lie by this new translation that there may not be an evil man to come known as the beast, or antichrist.

Over the years, many brokenhearted and faithful Christians, aware of Billy Graham's false teachings, have begged me to disclose to people the truth about the famous evangelist. Finally, after much prayer, I do so in great detail in this month's Intelligence Examiner investigative report. May our Lord and Saviour help us to get the word out before millions more are led into spiritual apostasy and eternal misery by the misguided teachings of this man.

In the U.S.A., the world's most beloved evangelist, Billy Graham, has assured passage of a shaky congressional bill conferring "Most Favored Nation" trade status for Communist Red China by writing a letter strongly supporting the bill. Hesitant legislators on the fence quickly caved in to White House demands and voted for the bill after receiving Billy Graham's politically charged letter. (Reuters, June 23, 1997)

This same Billy Graham is the man who once raved about butcher Mao Tse Tung's sayings, favorably comparing them to the Ten Commandments. Graham also once complimented a gulag-ridden Soviet Russia during the dark era for its "freedom of religion," and he called North Korea's vicious, bloody dictator, the late Kim Il Sung, a "great leader."

Now Billy Graham aids the Illuminati agenda as he seeks to gain financial advantage for a barbaric Red China. Red China's leadership slaughtered thousands in Tiananmen Square and, even now, persecutes and locks many Christian Chinese up in filthy jail cells.

Billy Graham has long been a water carrier and an errand boy for the Rockefellers, the Presidents, and other political and financial bigwigs. His recent scam, helping Communist China at President Clinton's behest, is just the latest in a string of political favors that Graham has tendered his influential and powerful friends in high places.

The unseemly behavior--and the political and moral compromises--of the world's most famous "evangelist" is one signal that the great falling away from the Truth foretold in Bible prophecy is underway (II Thess. 2).

Billy Graham was on the Larry King Show (CNN) in 1997 and what he said was right in line with Schuller’s teachings. Asked what he thought of Mormonism, Catholicism, and other such faiths, Graham responded, “Oh, I think I have a wonderful relationship with them.

Billy Graham was especially com-mendatory of Catholicism. He explained, “I am very comfortable with the Vatican. I have been to see the Pope several times. He and I agree on almost everything.”

“Well,” said King, “are you comfortable with Judaism?”
“Very comfortable,” answered Graham. “I depend on a Jewish rabbi, Rabbi Tannenbaum in New York, constantly, theologically and spiritually in every way.”

Now, since the Bible clearly states that a man who does not have Jesus does not have God the Father either, one is puzzled to figure out just what an unsaved man, Jewish Rabbi Tannenbaum, has to offer a supposed Christian evangelist like Billy Graham in the way of spiritual advice.

Possibly the advice given Graham by a Jewish Rabbi is similar to the spiritual advice that Episcopal Bishop John Shelby Spong would give. Bishop Spong rejects the virgin birth, the resurrection, and ascension of Jesus and favors ordaining homosexuals. Bishop Spong even claims that the Apostle Paul was a homosexual. The Episcopal hierarchy loves the guy, and certainly men like Billy Graham and Schuller would never, but never, criticize a fellow “Christian” leader. They’re way above that.

Here, well-documented, are the shocking, .. facts about Billy Graham's turn toward evil and about his worldly compromise .... Here is undeniable proof that Billy Graham is a promoter of the Vatican and the Pope and that he does not believe in a perfect Bible. Graham also does not bellieve that Jews, Buddhists, Moslems, Hindus, and tribalists need to know Jesus to be saved. Here is proof that at Billy Graham's Crusades, people are sent back to Jewish synagogues and Catholic churches and told they must stay a member of those faiths. Christian researcher Brad Gsell also unmasks Billy Graham's endorsement of raw Communism and the playing of heavy metal rock music at Graham's latest crusades. He asks, "Are these the legacy of a true Christian leader?"
