Rev. Billy Graham: A Prince of War Exposed
September 27, 2007
'The Rev. Billy Graham, a darling of the Evangelical Right, has never seen a U.S. war that he couldn’t bless. He once advocated that President Richard M. Nixon bomb the “dikes” in the north of Vietnam. He also criticized the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. for speaking out against the war. A new book, “The Prince of War: Billy Graham’s Crusade for a Wholly Christian Empire,” by Cecil Bothwell exposes the camera-mugging preacher as a serial warmonger.'
“The shepherd always tries to persuade the sheep that their interests and his own are the same.” - Stendhal
The propaganda machine of the Evangelical Christian Right will soon be in counter attack mode. One of its darling preachers is about to take it on the proverbial chin. The Rev. Billy Graham, who has created a multimillion dollar media empire, that a Rupert Murdock would envy, is the subject of a shocking expose’ due out on Nov. 15, 2007. It’s entitled, “The Prince of War: Billy Graham’s Crusade for a Wholly Christian Empire.” The author is Cecil Bothwell. He hails from Asheville, North Carolina and is an award winning investigative reporter. Bothwell’s unflattering portrait of Rev. Graham shows him as a wily warmonger and a lackey for the Establishment. He describes Rev. Graham as a public figure who: “Undermined the Founders’ skeptical Deism and sought to rebrand the U.S. as a Christian nation, [and] its armies [as] the rightful instruments of [a] Christian crusade and empire.”
Bothwell documents that there wasn’t a war the U.S. was involved in that Rev. Graham couldn’t bless. In fact, he reveals that during the horrific Vietnam conflict, (1959-75), he had urged the then-President, Richard M. Nixon, to bomb North Vietnam! In a 13-page letter, that Rev. Graham had forwarded to the White House in April, 1969, it was stated: “There are tens of thousands of North Vietnamese defectors to bomb and invade the North. Why should all the fighting be in the South?...Especially let them bomb the dikes which could over night destroy the economy of North Vietnam.” Mr. Bothwell underscored that such a military action against the dikes, a huge complex of earthworks, would probably “kill a million people and wipe out an already poor nation’s agricultural system” He added that the advice in Graham’s transmittal “fell on receptive ears. Not longer after, Nixon moved the air war north and west.”
There is more. After the deadly Kent State U. affair, (May 4, 1970), where four students, who were protesting the Nixon-Henry Kissinger-inspired bombing of Cambodia, were killed by Ohio’s National Guard troops, Rev. Graham invited the mostly unbalanced Nixon to address his crusade. It was held in Knoxville, TN. While parents of the students were still grieving and burying their dead, Rev. Graham shamelessly shilled: “All Americans may not agree with the decision a president makes--but he is our president...”
Also, every chance Rev. Graham got he ripped into antiwar protesters in this country, while the Vietnam inferno was raging. After a large pro peace demonstration in late 1969, he railed in a letter to Corry Harpers, that the protesters were “radicals and those seeking to overthrow the American way of life.” When the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. spoke out, in 1967 against the war in a sermon at the Riverside Church in NYC, Rev. Graham, jumped right in and tagged his criticism as “an affront to the thousands of loyal Negro troops who are in Vietnam.” When Dr. King marched for Civil Rights in Selma, Alabama, Rev. Graham was no where to be found. And, after Dr. King was gunned down in Memphis, TN, he couldn’t be bothered to attend his funeral either.
Rev. Graham made a career out of sucking up to U.S. presidents. Mr. Bothwell wrote how he loved those “endless photo-ops” at the White House, and how he was always, “so eager to shake the hands of...despots, movie stars and industrial kingpins, and to offer grandiose approval of their greatness. Obsequy, more than money, seemed to drive the man--though his pockets were never empty.” Fortunately, not all the presidents bought into Rev. Graham’s bogus act. One of my favorites, President Harry S. Truman, who was born in Lamar, MO, knew a wide variety of people from political bosses to political hacks. He had a built in b... s... detector. This is what President Truman had to say about the war-loving, camera-mugging preacher: “Graham has gone off the beam. He’s...well, I hadn’t ought to say this, but he’s one of those ‘counterfeits’ I was telling you about. He claims he’s a friend of all the presidents, but he was never a friend of mine when I was president. I just don’t go for people like that. All he’s interested in is getting his name in the paper.”
Just before Bush 1 (George H.W. Bush) launched the Persian Gulf War, he invited Rev. Graham to the White House. On Jan. 16, 1991, they both watched the “air war against Iraq on CNN.” Later that same evening, he prayed “three times” with the president before he delivered a “televised address to the nation.” In a phone call to Bush 1, prior to that White House invite, Rev. Graham had supposedly referred to Saddam Hussein as the “Antichrist.” This conversation reportedly helped Bush 1 to resolve “all the moral issues in my mind. It’s black and white, good versus evil.” Can anyone imagine Jesus watching a war on TV, without weeping aloud for its innocent victims, and demanding that it be stopped immediately?
As for the ongoing Iraq War, started by Bush 2 (George W. Bush Jr.), and based on a pack of rotten lies, not one word of criticism has been heard from Rev. Graham. Even after the notorious torture scandal at Abu Ghraib was revealed, the preacher maintained his vow of silence on this country’s worst president, a man who deserves impeachment and jail time for violating his oath of office. (1) The country has lost 3,801 of its finest sons and daughters in Iraq and wasted $455 billion there. Another 27,000 U.S. troops have been seriously injured. An estimated one million Iraqis are now dead and about 3.7 million have become refugees. Yet, Rev. Graham, a supposed follower of the “Prince of Peace,” has remained mute in his criticism of the outrageous conduct of this president and his insane policies. Why have we rarely heard Rev. Graham preach about Jesus’ “Sermon on the Mount?” Why have we rarely, if ever, heard him repeat these words that came directly from the mouth of Christ: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God?”
Mr. Bothwell suggests a possible reason why Rev. Graham has failed to speak out about the unjust Iraq War and Bush 2’s responsibility for it. At p. 164, he relates how the preacher, in 1985, had supposedly “saved” Bush 2 from perdition. It was at the family compound at Kennebunkport. Bush 2 was drunk and had allegedly “insulted a friend of his mother.” It was around the time of Bush 2’s 39th birthday. Mr. Bothwell writes: “George senior and Barbara blew up. Words were exchanged along the lines of something having to be done. George senior, then the vice-president, dialed up his friend, Billy Graham, who came to the compound and spent several days with George W. in probing exchanges and walks on the beach. George W. was soon ‘born again.’ He stopped drinking, attended Bible study and wrestle with issues of fervent faith. A man who was lost was saved.”
We now know that Bush 2, although he may have stopped hitting the bottle, never did anything in the realm of therapy about his alcoholism problem. He’s known by the experts in the field as a “dry drunk,” a potential danger to himself and to others. (2) As for Bush 2 being “born again,” the question must be asked: “Born again for what?” To kill Iraqis? Invade Iran? Bankrupt our Republic? “Brother” Elliott Nesch, an Evangelical and Peace advocate, believes that pro-War Christians “should repent.” (3) I agree with him. The bottom line is clerics, like Rev. Graham, dominate today much of the Religious Right in America. Bothwell’s tome deals, however, with a lot more relevant issues than just the preacher’s disgusting war addiction. It’s an insightful book that I am highly recommending. It’s well documented, too, with 274 footnotes.
Finally, I wrote last year that “Rev. Graham wasn’t a Phil Berrigan.” The latter, an ex-priest, was a true apostle of peace, who spent 11 of his 79 years behind bars in the cause of justice. Unlike Rev. Graham, who skipped out of WWII, Berrigan was involved in the Normandy invasion and the “Battle of the Bulge” as a member of the U.S. Army. (4) I’m convinced that unless the Christian community in this country, Protestant and Catholic alike, opens its eyes to what Rev. Graham and his Establishment-serving ilk have been doing “in Christ’s name,” this nation is headed for a fall that will make the collapse of Rome look like a Sunday picnic.

Yeah! Let's pile on an old sick widower! I bet the Rev. Graham even had lustful thoughts as a young man. Billy Graham has done more good works than you and the author could ever accomplish if you both lived a thousand years. This is a steaming pile. So the man didn't agree with the authors extreme left wing politics, whoopy! This guys going to regret destroying his own career. Hell, I don't care for religion, but BG is just as beloved and respected as JP2 and Mother Theresa.  |

To 3dvd From IAM1,
WRONG! You need to do more research. Billy Graham is a known and exposed satanist and SRA predator! He has worked with many corrupt governments, including the USA mostly.
Billy Graham, is the phony "Christian" hero who has been funded from the start by the top Illuminati families and operatives like the Rockefeller's and newspaper tycoon, William Randolph Hearst. Satanist, involved in mind control projects, close friend of Bush and Kissinger. Bloodline of the Satanic Illuminati Frank family, which created the Satanic movement known as Frankism.

Just because people like him doesn't mean he is a good guy.
I've also heard that people who worked with Mother Theresa didn't like her either. They said she was nothing like the way she was portrayed in the media. |

| Was Mother Theresa a Satanist too? I am well aware that some thought her work was basically being an enabler to keep people poor. It's kind of a stretch from disagreeing with her policies to castigating her as the epitome of evil as IAM1 does with Billy Graham. Doesn't posting such obvious disgusting and ludicrous ideas call all the junk he keep bumping into question? |

I'd have to first believe in Satan. 
My point is that just because people like someone, it doesn't mean they are as the media says they are/were.
Maybe Graham did do these things. If so, you decide if they are "good" or "evil". Before just reacting on the basis that many people like him, read what this author says, then judge.
There are many sides to all stories. |

I understand that the author has a different view of BG's stance on the wars. I don't like the insinuations he is worming into his work. IAM1, on the other hand, crosses all lines with his libelous spew. It is one thing to disagree and another to resort to blatant lies.
I also agree with you about the devil's existence. |

3dvd, you need to chill out and take a break from being in the blindness box you so love to be in. You make comments and don't research but say you do. There is evidence everywhere and witnesses that have seen and experienced Billy Graham's satanism and more.
Now if you'd done your research you'd know that satan isn't some religious devil the bible stories created. Go to my
"illuminati/Draconian/Luciferians rule/control the world?" thread and you'll learn/see or figure out, possibly, what I mean.
And who are you to judge what is a lie or not? Investigate, do some research, before you start calling people liars! . Prove what I've posted here wrong! I'd really like to see it |

All the Evidence points to Billy Graham as being a 33° Degree Freemason
'Freemasonry is the oldest and largest world wide fraternity dedicated to the Brotherhood of Man under the Fatherhood of a Supreme Being' and that being is pure evil!
Dr. Chris
September 28, 2007
The Committee of 300 is where it's all happening, as far as the New World Order is concerned. Included in the membership Committee of 300 are the old families of the European Black Nobility, the American Eastern Liberal Establishment (in Freemason hierarchy and the Order of Skull and Bones), the Illuminati, or as it is known by the Committee "MORIAH CONQUERING WIND," the Mumma Group, The National and World Council of Churches, the Circle of Initiates, the Nine Unknown Men, Lucis Trust, Jesuit Liberation Theologists, The Order of the Elders of Zion, the Nasi Princes, International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Bank of International Settlements (BIS), the United Nations (U.N.), the Central, British Quator Coronati, Italian P2 Masonry - especially those in the Vatican hierarchy - the Central Intelligence Agency, Tavistock Institute selected personnel, various members of leading foundations and insurance companies, the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, the Milner Group-Round Table, Cini Foundation, German Marshall Fund, Ditchley Foundation, NATO, Club of Rome, Environmentalists, The Order of St. John of Jerusalem, One World Government Church, Socialist International, Black Order, Thule Society, Anenherbe- Rosicrucianists, The Great Superior Ones, and literally hundreds of other organizations.
— John Coleman, Committee of 300, pp. 159-160
A lot of this information is old information that needed to be updated. And so this information has been edited to remove overly religious connotations and update the material. It is important to know that the Illuminati have long conspired to establish a New World Order. To achieve this/their goal, there are three main areas they need to infiltrate and thoroughly subvert...they are:
1. Political System/Government to form a One World Government
2. Religions to form a One World Religion/Belief System
3. Economics/Finances to form a One World Economy
It is by placing key 33rd degree Freemasons at the apex of political, religious, and economic institutions that their deceitful goals can be reached. Billy Graham has been selected and used by the Illuminati to work to bring about a One World Global Church based at the Vatican.
Exposing Billy Graham's Masonic fellowship and affiliations includes:
* Billy Graham attending his 33rd Degree Masonic initiation, or was that Jim Shaw's?:
Fritz Springmeier of Portland, Oregon has written a tract, "Billy Graham and the Bible." He gives evidence of Billy Graham being a 33rd degree Mason who has taken secret oaths in blood. In this tract, Springmeier states, "Billy Graham took part in the initiation rites of Jim Shaw as a 33rd degree Mason." (9/14/92, Christian News).
http://www.rapidnet.com/~jbeard/bdm/exposes/graham/general.htm
Billy Graham - General Teachings/Activities
* Billy Graham's endorsement of DeMolay, Masonic youth group:
In a Masonic book, "The Clergy and the Craft", in which the author states "The clergy represented in this volume are proud to be both Masons and Ministers of God [The "God" that's being spoken about here is the occult kabbalistic dark God, if you know what I mean?]. 23 We find this statement by Graham in this Masonic clergy book:
"There are the young people upon which the hope of America's future rests and DeMolays are part of this group....May God richly bless all DeMolays as they continue their good work." 24
What did Billy Graham just say? "May God richly bless all DeMolays as they continue their good work"!
Let us review some facts that demonstrate how horrific this Graham statement is.
"Even though the youth groups such as the Rainbow Girls, Job's Daughters, and the DeMolays, seem like innocent organizations, we must remember that these associations are considered to be 'feeder groups'. The adolescents in these societies are being groomed for potential membership in Masonry and the Eastern Star when they reach adulthood. In fact, according to The New Age, a Masonic journal ... about 50% of DeMolays join Masonry when they reach 21 years of age." ["Hidden Secrets of the Eastern Star", by Dr. Burns, p. 366]
"One former DeMolay member goes so far as to call the DeMolays a 'kindergarten for Satanism', for he believes it was a major stepping stone for him into occultism and witchcraft." [Burns, p. 368, quoting Bill Schnoebelen, "Masonry", p. 110]
"Former Grand Sovereign Commander, Henry C. Clausen, brags: 'Masonry long has used the great inspirational story of Jacques DeMolay to illustrate its truths." [33rd Degree, Henry C. Clausen, 'Clausen's Commentaries On Morals and Dogma, Supreme Council, 'Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry", Southern Jurisdiction, USA, 1974, p. 168; quoted in Hidden Secrets of Eastern Star, p. 129]
http://cuttingedge.org/detail.cfm?ID=10
Cutting Edge Bookstore- Detailed Item Information
The DeMolay young men's group is based upon the "Great inspirational story of Jacques DeMolay" Let us discuss Jacques DeMolay:
"In a book entitled, "The Guilt of the Templars", we are told that the 'Knights Templars' confessions show them to have been basically a homosexual warrior group, like the Japanese samurai'. Other charges were that the Knights Templar participated in Black Magic and Pederasty (anal intercourse, usually with a young boy). They practiced Phallicism or sex-worship and Satanism, and venerated 'The Baphomet', the idol of Templar initiation. There was also a 'ritual kiss', which involved a series of four kisses, the last one being a kiss on the anus or on the private parts." [Burns, p. 128]
This connection between The Baphomet and Jacques DeMolay of the Knights Templar is so powerful and so devastating that Freemasonry has devoted strong resources to discrediting these revelations, based largely on the fact that the French King used extreme torture to extract these confessions; after all, as anyone will know, a person being tortured will agree to anything just to stop the torture. However, former Satanists with whom I have worked have uniformly confirmed that Jacques DeMolay and his Knights Templar were guilty of all the charges against them. Indeed, several Masonic writers have confirmed that DeMolay and Knights Templar were guilty of the king's charges. 24a
Now, can you properly understand how devastating it is that Billy Graham praised DeMolay and prayed "God's" continued blessing upon them? [I wouldn't expect anything less from a high degree freemason/satanist!]

"Being a Freemason was an important part of the life of Norman Vincent Peale, and the Scottish Rite meant a great deal to him. He passed away on December 24, 1993, but I am keeping his message flowing out through both Peale Center and Guideposts magazine." 90

FREEMASONS PAY TRIBUTE TO BILLY GRAHAM
* Robert Morey's knowledge of Billy Grahams Masonic File:
Robert Morey, while doing research on Freemasonry at the House Of The Temple, asked the librarian if they had Billy Graham's Masonic membership file. She replied that they did have such a file on hand. On page 23 of Morey's book entitled "The Truth About Masons" he refers to Billy Graham when he states " Or that one of the most well-known evangelists in the world is a Luciferian because he is a thirty-third degree Mason? "
Also of interest is Morey's mention of Jesse Helms being a 33 Degree Freemason as Helms was present at Billy's Masonic award in Washington, D.C.
http://www.geocities.com/endtimedeception/file.htm
Billy Graham's 33rd Degree Masonic File
* Freemasons that are employed by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA):
# William M. Watson - Director of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. He is a Freemason and also a member of the development council of Masonic run and founded Baylor University. (Billy Graham received a Baylor 'Masonic' Award)
He also was a member of the advisory council to the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth which had at least 3 Freemasons on its board of trustees, and likely more.
# David M. McConnell - Director of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association.
David is also a Freemason. He was also U.S. ambassador to the United Nations.
# Arthur Lee Malory - Co-Chairman of the Billy Graham Crusade Advisory Committee for the 1973 St. Louis Crusade. Arthur is a 32° Degree Freemason and a deacon in the Southern Baptist Church.
* Billy Graham gets million's from a New Age Occultist and more:
Rev. Billy Graham -- Dr. Cathy Burns wrote in her 788-page book, "Billy Graham and His Friends", to illustrate Dr. Graham's exceedingly numerous ties to the Illuminati. To single out the most infamous ties would be a most daunting task; however, Dr. Burns feels that Billy Graham was selected by the Illuminati as far back as 1942 to become the foremost "holy man" in America! Listen:
"At that time (1946) no one in the Christian community knew that the World Government had begun to build 'AN ICON' that later would be accepted by large masses of people, 'A HOLY MAN', speaking for God." [Burns, p. 54; Emphasis was in original]
Billy Graham was that "Icon", that deliberately created "Holy Man", offered to the masses of undiscerning people. But, why should we be surprised, for Dr. Graham himself admitted he was an Ecumenicist, not a Fundamental Christian. Listen:
"In 1950, Billy Graham held a Crusade at Boston. Listen to what he says about the Unitarian Church: 'At that time, 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 ... 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'. Did you notice that, over 50 years ago, Graham had developed a 'spiritual love' for the Unitarian clergy?" [Burns, p. 71]
Further, Graham personally defines himself as holding to an " ecumenical outlook"!
New Age and New World Order authors make it quite plain that the Ecumenical Movement -- also known as the "One Universal Church" -- is a most important organization designed specifically to unify all the world's religious religions. [Read NEWS1165 for full details]. The Ecumenical Movement is a precursor to the One World Church of Antichrist! When I was sneaked into the Members Only seminar at the Boston House of Theosophy, the New England Director boldly stated that the Roman Catholic Pope was leading the global spiritual drive to the global religion of Antichrist, known primarily as the Ecumenical Movement [Read NEWS1052].
http://www.cuttingedge.org/NEWS/N1165.CFM
SATANIC SOURCES CLAIM KNIGHTS TEMPLAR TO BE SATANIC! THIS IS MORE PROOF THAT FREEMASONRY IS ALSO SATANIC- Christian Updates - New World Order.
This is the dream of Rev. Sun Moon and all his organizations. Thus, he must have been very pleased with Dr. Billy Graham during the 1991 Gulf War, when President Bush (Sr.) asked him to come to the White House to lead the nation in prayer for the war that Bush had already declared to be a New World Order war! Listen to Dr. Graham's public remarks after he came out of the "prayer service" in which he preached a short sermon:
"Perhaps out of this war will come a new peace and -- as has been stated by the President -- a New World Order." [Burns, op. cit., p. 63-4]
Dr. Graham financially plugged into the Illuminati one spot above Rev. Moon. He received much support from the Rockefeller groups, who is, in turn, owned by Phillippe Rothschild! [Burns, op.cit., p. 388] Graham also has received support from: Vanderbilts, Whitneys, Goulds, Dodges, and Phelps, and even Standard Oil Company (another Rockefeller connection). [Burns, op. cit., p. 31]
In 1982, Billy Graham received the Illuminist Templeton Award [In brackets here you can read about the Templeton Award>Bill Bright was also the 1996 recipient of the Illuminist Templeton Prize, making him One Million Dollars richer. The Templeton committee is "made up of leaders from the world's five major religions ('Christianity', Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam and Judaism)". They meet annually meet to decide the recipient of the One Million dollar prize. Templeton himself has been described as a "New Age pantheist/science-of-mind Universalist/investment guru."] Even though Templeton is a pantheist and Illuminist through and through --- Graham praised him greatly. [Burns, op. cit., p. 489]
*The Rev. Sun Myung Moon and Billy Graham:
"Moon is the founder of the cultic (and occultic) Unification Church (better known as the 'Moonies') and has had help from the Rockefeller's. Also of interest is that the prominent political figures that have endorsed Moon are those with ties to the NWO (New World Order), and include Ted Kennedy, Mason Mark O. Hatfield, Mason Jesse Helms and Illuminatus William F. Buckley." ["Billy Graham and His Friends", by Dr. Cathy Burns, p. 103-4]

[Being knighted by the Queen is a ritualistic satanic/illuminati/freemasonic ceremony!]
'That should speak volumes to anyone who has understanding of the Illuminati pyramid power structure and the most powerful Merovingian blood line of the Royal Family.'
What we are seeing is how important it is to the Illuminati to keep Billy Graham's membership secret.

* Billy Graham receives award from a powerful Masonic Lodge
Above, Billy Graham receives the 'payoff' from Freemason Illuminati satanist Prince Philip of the British Monarchy (He had Princess Diana ritualistically sacrificed).
These awards have Masonic connections, and in this case Graham's award is presented to him by a fellow Freemason.
Another Masonic connection: John Marks Templeton is a Rhodes Scholar -
Rhodes scholarships were founded by Cecil Rhodes who was a Freemason according to the Masonic reference book called "Denslow's 10,000 Famous Freemasons". (Vol IV page 29-30)
Cecil Rhodes was a member of the Illuminati and a friend of the Masonic Rothschild family. Many Masons that have been in a powerful positions in society are also Rhodes scholars such as Bob Hawke the ex-PM Australia and Bill Clinton, to name a few.
Denslow's 10,000 Famous Freemasons also lists Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh as a Mason.
"Philip was initiated in the Navy Lodge No.2612 of London on Dec 5, 1952. Present at the initiation were the Earl of Scarbrough, grand master, q.v., and Geoffrey Fisher, archbishop of Canterbury." (Vol 2 p6)
Other recipients of the Templeton award include Charles Colson and Bill Bright.
More awards and honors for Billy Graham listed from the Freemasons:

* Billy Graham receives more worldly honors and awards:
In 1971, Graham's hometown of Charlotte held "Billy Graham Day," at which President Nixon made an appearance. On May 30, 1999, Graham was invited to give the pre-race invocation at the Indianapolis 500. On May 31, 2007, the $27 million Billy Graham Library was officially dedicated in Charlotte. Graham was present along with former Presidents Jimmy Carter, George H. W. Bush, and Bill Clinton. A highway in Charlotte also bears Graham's name. In addition, in 1986, Graham was given North Carolina's highest honor, the North Carolina Award, for public service.
In addition in 1971, he received an award from the National Conference of Christians and Jews; after the Nixon tapes appeared, Abraham Foxman of the Anti-Defamation League called for Graham to return the award.[12] He was honored by the American Jewish Committee with its National Interreligious Award for his efforts on behalf of Jewish-Christian relations; the committee called him one of the century's greatest Christian friends of Jews.
Illuminati family and friends helped start Billy Graham’s ministry:
'Stu PAK is associated with the Stewart Title Company. Stu Pak provides funds for Billy Graham and others. The head of Stu Pak is friends with Billy Graham and George Bush. The company has a lot of relatives running it. The Morris family is also tied to it, The people of Stewart Title Company are ruthless. The Van Duyn Illuminati family in California also helped Billy Graham’s ministry get started. One of the ways the Illuminati funneled money to Billy Graham was through a monthly check delivered to Jeanne Dixon’s office, which was picked up every month by Billy Graham’s staff.'

The Deception of Billy Graham. A Mind Controlled Front
*Billy Graham's and Randolph Hearst's lucrative public influence and their Illuminati connections:
David Hill knew that William Randolph Hearst was part of the Illuminati, He was part of the branch Illuminati -- at what could be termed the 6th degree. William Randolph Hearst was totally into paganism. That is very obvious by a tour of his mansion in California which has been turned into a museum. It was William Randolph Hearst who financed the first three years of Billy Graham’s Crusades.

The Deception of Billy Graham. A Mind Controlled Front
"In 1949, William Randolph Hearst, head of one large publishing empire, and Henry Luce, chief of another, Time, Inc., were both worried about communism and the growth of liberalism in the United States." "Billy Graham, an obscure evangelist holding poorly attended tent meetings in Los Angeles. Hearst and Luce interviewed the obscure preacher and decided he was worthy of their support. Billy Graham became an almost instantaneous national and, later, international figure preaching anticommunism. In late 1949, Hearst sent a telegram to all Hearst editors: "Puff Graham." The editors did - in Hearst newspapers, magazines, movies, and newsreels. Within two months Graham was preaching to crowds of 350,000." (from Ben Bagdikian, The Media Monopoly, Boston, Mass Usa: Beacon Press, 2000 6th ed., p. 39 ff)
*In this article Billy Graham's son, Franklin, carries on his fathers ruthless tactics of manipulation and deception of the world:
'Operation Christmas Child is run in Britain by Samaritan's Purse International (SPI), a charitable company linked to the US charity Samaritan's Purse. The latter's chief executive is a rightwing fundamentalist, Franklin Graham, son of the celebrated evangelist Billy Graham and a close friend of President Bush.
Franklin Graham, who is also the international president of the British charity SPI, has caused controversy in the US by branding Islam "wicked, violent and not of the same god".
Many staff of established humanitarian charities are increasingly concerned at the activities of evangelical relief agencies in the developing world. Brendan Paddy, of Save the Children, says it is dangerous when charities mix humanitarian work with the promotion of a particular religious or political agenda.'

Hi Questioner 101!
Great link, thanks!  Yes, you are right about what you said above, and about McPherson too, who carried a long legacy that still exists today in the four square church. A fellow named Brant Baker was an offshoot of her ministry, he was flamboyant and charismatic but concealed his homosexuality from church members and followers of his Shekinah ministry at the four square church. He was a young evangelist who exhausted himself in his preaching and barely had time for a social life. He was engaged to be married to a young and naive female member of the four square church and Shekinah ministry but he died in his early 30s from AIDS.

3dvd, you're a child and behave like an immature idiot at that! I'm sure you take a lot of medications, in all forms, to cope with yourself. You go around this board and try to insult people who you don't agree with and who don't agree with you. Take a deep breath and try not to choke  . And stop trying to derail this thread because I've posted information on it you don't like, too bad! Take a bite of life and swallow it. The truth will go down hard if it gets past your foul attitude. You can't have your way in life as you wish - handed to you the way you wish all on the premise of being a spoiled brat! |

Mind-Control Using Religious Fronts
Excerpts from the book about Monarch Mind Control
Everyone in the Illuminati of any significance has participated in grooming the public to believe that Billy Graham was/is a great man of God but, who and what God? Billy Graham has stood beside many of the Presidents and the Popes. The Illuminati don't just program individuals, they program entire nations. The public has been led to believe in a television image. But what if the media's image of Billy Graham isn't real/true? You can begin to see the extent of how America's institutions have been corrupted by the horrors of trauma-based mind-control but, only if you dare to open your mind to the truth that is exposed here.
A great deal of Monarch (mind control) programming and slave abuse, (as well as the drug trade) is/are done under three major covers and/or fronts:
1)Religious Fronts.
2)The Fronts of National Security, the Military.
3)The Entertainment fields - especially the Country Western Industry, the Rock Music Industry and Hollywood.
These Religious Fronts have been popular for centuries, especially when groups such as, the Jesuits, the Assassins, and other religious groups held immense power. Religious fronts from the past are still being used, they just morph into others such as, J.Z. Knight, Elizabeth Claire Prophet's church/ministry, the Church of Scientology, the Charismatic Movement, Jim Jones & Jones-town, and David Koresh's group etc. Billy Ray Moore's Lord's Chapel is entirely a mind-control operation. There is a non-denomination Pentecostal church in southern Washington whose entire membership is Satanists under mind-control. Various overseas "missionary" groups are fronts/covers for the CIA & mind-control. These religious fronts are part of the total trauma-based mind-control system that operates to protect mind-control, along with corrupt and deviant factions of the CIA. [See IAM1's "Codename Artichoke" and "Operation Paperclip" thread in this Conspiracy forum, for more information on this subject]
Some of the deceptions such as the lone assassin idea have been used for centuries as a cover for assassinations planned by the occult hierarchy. If we are going to reveal how the Monarch Mind-control is done, we will have to explain how the deception is done. If one describes a chameleon only by saying "it is | | |
