Billy Graham was born on November 7, 1918, in a Presbyterian home (4 days before the end of World War 1 on November 11, 1918). Billy Graham traces his conversion experience back to 1934 with the preaching of a traveling evangelist named Mordecai Ham. After graduating high school in 1936 Graham began attending Bob Jones University but took issue with the strict discipline there. Graham later switched over to Florida Bible Institute. In 1938, Graham was baptized by immersion in a Baptist church, and in early 1939, Graham was ordained to preach by a Southern Baptist congregation. In May 1940, Graham graduated from the Florida Bible Institute. Graham joined Wheaton College in September 1940, and he graduated from there in 1943. In 1950, the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association was formed.
The Roman Catholic connections of Billy Graham date as far back as 1944 when Catholic Bishop Fulton Sheen first met Graham.
Fulton Sheen died in December 1979, and Graham reacted by stating that he had “known him as a friend for over 35 years” (Religious News Service, Dec. 11, 1979).
Other examples of Billy Graham’s Romanist connections and ties extend beyond Fulton Sheen.
Beginning in 1950, Boston’s Catholic Archbishop Richard Cushing also had a special influence over Billy Graham, and even praised Billy Graham in his diocesan paper:
“Another significant thing happened in the early ‘50s in Boston. Cardinal Cushing, in his magazine, The Pilot, put ‘BRAVO BILLY’ on the front cover. That made news all over the country. He and I became close, wonderful friends. That was my first real coming to grips with the whole Protestant/Catholic situation. I began to realize that there were Christians everywhere. They might be called modernists, Catholics, or whatever, but they were Christians” (Bookstore Journal, Nov. 1991).
By the end of 1950, Graham had formed a permanent team of staff members to help organize his meetings, one of which was Willis Haymaker. One of Haymaker’s jobs in the early days of Graham’s crusades was documented in Graham’s autobiography:
“He would also call on the local Catholic bishop or other clerics to acquaint them with Crusade plans and invite them to the meetings; they would usually appoint a priest to attend and report back. This was years before Vatican II’s openness to Protestants, but we were concerned to let the Catholic Bishops see that my goal was not to get people to leave their church; rather, I wanted them to commit their lives to Christ” (Graham, Just As I Am, p. 163).
A few pages later in Graham’s autobiography, Graham admitted that he was drawn close to Rome very early in his ministry:
“At that time [March 1950], Protestantism in New England was weak, due in part to theological differences within some denominations, the influence of Unitarian ideas in other denominations, and the strength of the Roman Catholic Church. In spite of all that, a number of Roman Catholic priests and Unitarian clergy, together with some of their parishioners, came to the meetings along with those from Evangelical churches. With my limited Evangelical background, this was a further expansion of my own ecumenical outlook. I now began to make friends among people from many different backgrounds and to develop a spiritual love for their clergy” (Graham, Just As I Am, p. 167).
The Roman Catholic Church is NOT a Christian Church, the Roman Catholic Church is condemned in Revelation 17 and Revelation 18 as Mystery Babylon, Billy Graham was nothing more than an agent or pawn used by the Jesuit black Pope and his henchman the white Pope to attempt to draw America under the control of Romanism.
