He richly deserves this honor.
In younger days he looked a lot like James Arness...but he was a bit shorter at 6'3" Arness was 6'6"
Well that should make a lot of heads explode in D.C.! I hope he’s well-guarded.
Very few people are accorded the honor of lying in state in the US Capitol.
Its a fitting tribute to the Rev. Graham, known as “America’s Pastor.”
May he RIP.
Waiting for the ACLU to file its lawsuit in 5...4...3...2...1.
He was an amazing person and great pastor.
I saw him in Los Angeles in 1986. He was the most inspirational and uplifting speaker I had ever heard in my life to that point.
No question that he is now at home with Our Lord.
Who was the last non-governmental person afforded this honor?...................Hint: it was a WOMAN.................

While Graham lies in honor, the MSM will lie in dishonor.
Graham is gone. For the believer, "We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord." (2 Corinthians 5:8).
His dead flesh is all that remains on earth.
For the unbeliever, Jesus in Luke 16:19-31) describes that man's experience immediately after death.
What a great time for the Rapture of the church!
Billy Graham laying in state at the capital building - the eyes of the world are upon him, and suddenly . . . HE’S GONE!
but at the same time (well, a twinkling of the eye later) the rest of the living saints are vanished and evermore with their Lord!
Think the world will take notice?
NOTE: Methuselah lived the longest of the OT persons, and when he died the Bible tells us that the flood came.
I’ve sometimes conjectured that Billy Graham might just be the ‘Methuselah of the church age’ . . .
This would not be happening if Trump were not President.
Than’ you for the respect you are showing Rev Graham, Mr President. He will have been proud to call you President

Hope to take a drive down from Jersey next Wednesday. My hope is that thousands and thousands of people from around the US arrive to show their respects not only to honor Billy but also to demonstrate that the only hope of this country is a spiritual awakening. This knowledge was at the heart of Billy’s simple message and what he hoped and prayed for.
Have been disgusted to see that Drudge has had nothing on its page the past couple of days about Billy Graham, and especially this news.
I thought that only president’s or vice-presidents could lie in state in the Capitol. Am I wrong?
