Billy Graham - Still a Collaborator With Enemies of the Gospel
Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony sent his priests an Oct 6 letter outlining his thoughts on the Billy Graham Crusade to be held at the Rose Bowl Nov 18-21. 'His Eminence' assured his priests that Billy is NO threat to them.
As is Billy's practice - he will be giving Catholic names back to local Catholic authorities. During World War II in Europe, they had a name for those who worked with the enemy and turned in names - such a person was called a "collaborator."
Mahony wrote:
"A tremendous opportunity for evangelizing and WELCOMING BACK ALIENATED AND NONPRACTICING CATHOLICS (emphasis mine) to full sacramental life will be presented to us this November."
"These officials (Billy Graham's staff) have assured me that, in keeping with Dr Graham's belief and policy, there will be no proselytizing, and that anyone identifying him or herself as a Catholic will be referred to us for reintegration into the life of the Catholic Church."
Mahony has also assigned a priest and deacon to work with the Graham staff to:
"Coordinate our response to those who indicate through the crusade that they wish to join or become again active in the Catholic Church."
In addition - the Los Angeles archdiocesan website carried a listing of where Billy's crusade counselor classes could be taken - so that Catholics could be "counselors" down on the field when people go forward.
Billy Graham - bringing a "gospel" that Rome let alone does NOT fear, but in fact welcomes!! We must wonder what "gospel" Billy is preaching?
As he has for 50 years - Billy continues to send people back to worship wafers, pray for the dead, confess to priests, say the rosary, believe in purgatory, trust in the pope, 'ad nauseum.'
Christ is certainly capable of saving people without ANY compromise with Rome. Did our Lord ever send anyone back to the temple of Zeus? Did Paul ever send some back to worship Aphrodite? Yet Billy sends people back to Rome - and even gives their names to the priests, thus making sure that the priests will keep an extra eye on such wandering Catholics.
May our Lord pull the mask off Billy Graham and expose for all to see the great ecumenical harm he has done. Lord, protect Your church from the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association!
