Billy Graham
The greatest evangelist/preacher of the Gospel in modern time has passed away. Dr. Billy Graham was a man of integrity with no bad marks on his ministry. I find no fault in him. I am sure he has seen Jesus and has heard Him say "Well done, thou good and faithful servant." Now he has also joined Cliff Barrows and George Beverly Shea in the Heavenly Choir.

A man that was truly called to preach "The Gospel!" Billy Graham started out wanting to be a baseball player but God had other plans. He preached from the "Word of God," and kept the message simple and focused on The Gospel, which is The Good News about Jesus Christ! I am sure that Billy Graham heard those words, "Well done thy faithful and good servant! Come enter the place prepared for you!" To God be The Glory!

Per, you are correct; and this thread is not about Religion: is about a man who is widely loved & respected. I can't say for sure that Billy Graham loved steel guitar music, but how could he not love this wonderful God given musical talent gift to people. ...
Peace brother. ...

Billy Graham
I posted this on here as a tribute to a great man. No, he was not a steel player, but neither was Jim Nabors, David Cassidy, or Chuck Berry and others whom we [in our own steel guitar community] have paid tribute to. This is not about religion. It is about a man who did not preach religion, but relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Religion will kill you. A relationship with Christ will bring life to you. Steel guitar music will soothe the soul, but Jesus will save the soul. In America, it is OK to love them both...and I do!

To each his own. As the father of two children who are half jewish, he'll always be the anti-semitic hypocrite he always was. You know a man, not by what he says in public, but by what he says when he thinks no one is listening. Here is Billy Graham talking to Nixon about his opinion of jews:
"''They're the ones putting out the pornographic stuff,'' Graham said to Nixon - "the Jewish stranglehold has got to be broken or the country's going down the drain,'' he continued.
Graham also confided in Nixon that he hid his true feelings about Jews from them: ''I go and I keep friends with Mr. Rosenthal (then executive editor) at The New York Times and people of that sort, you know. And all -- I mean, not all the Jews, but a lot of the Jews are great friends of mine, they swarm around me and are friendly to me because they know that I'm friendly with Israel. But they don't know how I really feel about what they are doing to this country. And I have no power, no way to handle them, but I would stand up if under proper circumstances.''

It might have come from here....That statement about Billy Graham sounds like hearsay to me. I would like to know where that statement came from.
Sounds like fake news.
