The Rev. Billy Graham ministry removed Mormons from their list of cults - so you were wrong about that, too. Or do you really propose to criticize the Rev. Billy Graham and pooh pooh his spiritual judgment? God help you if you do.

Keep up to date SD - mormonism is back on Graham's list of cults. They realized the folly of politics over gospel truth.

Here is an article where Eric Johnson (we have mutual friends) explains what happened when he called BGEA about if they still considered Mormonism a cult.

“We called the BGEA on October 24 and talked to a representative. When we asked if the media were putting words into BGEA’s proverbial mouth—that “Mormonism was no longer a cult”—the spokesman fully agreed that the BGEA’s action was being misinterpreted. He added that nowhere did the association ever make such a statement. According to Ken Barun, “We removed the information from the website because we do not wish to participate in a theological debate about something that has become politicized during this campaign.”

It can be debated whether this move was the wisest decision. In hindsight, the BGEA leadership must now understand that taking the article down created much more of a stir than if the article had just remained on the site. By deleting it, the media was able to twist this action into saying that Billy Graham must somehow no longer think that Mormonism is a cult. This simply is not the case.”

So, Sandy, I’m sorry, but Graham didn’t change his mind - he still thinks Mormonism is a cult. I will post this quote every time Sandy makes the false claim that Graham changed his mind. Be warned.
