FINAL WARNING: Setting the Stage for Destruction
Rev. Graham has allowed his message to be watered-down, and in
order to maintain his stature as a national leader, has turned a blind
eye to sin. He has shown support for churches that are clearly in
conflict with Biblical teaching; and he has ignored Scripture like 2
Corinthians 6:17, which says, “Wherefore come out from among them,
and be ye separate,” in order to promote a unified Christian Church,
and even one-world government. Could the guilt of all of this have
contributed to the statement he made on January 2, 2000, in an
interview with Fox News’ Tony Snow, when he said: “I’m not a
righteous man. People put me up on a pedestal that I don’t belong in
my personal life. And they think that I’m better than I am. I’m not the
good man that people think I am. Newspapers and magazines and
television have made me out to be a saint, I’m not. I’m not a Mother
Teresa. And I feel that very much.”
Ecumenical Movement of the Catholic Church
The Pope, leader of the Catholic Church, has been referred to as His
Holiness, Holy Father, Vicar of Christ, Head of the Church, Father of
Princes and Kings, Father of All Christians, Supreme Teacher of the
Universal Church, Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church, Viceroy of
Jesus Christ, Bishop of Rome, and Rector of the World upon Earth.
When he is elected, he is crowned with a triple tiara, which, according
to the Catholic Dictionary signifies the following:
“...first circlet symbolizes the Pope’s universal episcopate, the
second his supremacy of jurisdiction, and third his temporal
supremacy. It is placed on his head at his coronation by the
second cardinal deacon, with the words, ‘Receive the tiara
adorned with three crowns and know that thou art Father of
princes and kings, Ruler of the World, Vicar of our Saviour Jesus
Christ’ ... The triple crown the Pope wears symbolizes his
authority in heaven, on earth, and in the underworld– as king of
heaven, king of earth, and king of hell– in that through his
absolutions [pardons] souls are admitted to heaven, on the earth
he attempts to exercise political as well as spiritual power, and
through his special jurisdiction over the soul’s in purgatory and
his exercise of ‘the power of the keys’ he can release whatever
