Radio Broadcast of Cross Talk America ^ | May 11 05 | Dr. David DiCano

May 11, 2005 Host: Vic Eliason Topic: False Doctrine Guest: David DiCanio Description: Dr. David DiCanio is Pastor of Columbine Free Presbyterian Church in Columbine, Colorado, and is involved in Christian Media, which produces television-style documentaries on religious trends and movements. Vic Eliason presents two audio cuts. One features Robert Schuller being interviewed by Dr. David DiCanio after giving a keynote address at the 2004 National Association of Evangelicals meeting. The other cut features Robert Schuller interviewing Billy Graham. The two discuss their views concerning how people are saved.

Dr. DiCanio interacts with callers to discuss the opinions expressed by Schuller and Graham and the current move of some leaders in Christianity to preach a gospel that teaches salvation apart from a conscious, biblical awareness of Christ as the only way to God.

What happened to the "no man comes to the Father except by Me" clause,Billy?

Right. He's said it more times than I can recall in 40 years.

He said it on [& to] LKL, just prior to this last NYC thing.

Nothing new here. Schuller and Graham have said all this same stuff for years. There are a vast number of disturbing quotes and similar incidents going all the way back to the Fifties.

A typical page with annotated sources giving Graham's history of apostate belief system.

A few samples:
Graham's gospel and Roman Catholicism's gospel are, in reality, no different. In 1978, McCall's Magazine reported Dr. Graham's "updated" understanding of the way of salvation: "I used to think that pagans in far-off countries were lost -- were going to hell -- if they did not have the Gospel of Jesus Christ preached to them. I no longer believe that. ... I believe there are other ways of recognizing the existence of God -- through nature, for instance -- and plenty of other opportunities, therefore, of saying yes to God."

We should not be surprised, then, to learn that Graham also holds to Rome's false gospel of baptismal regeneration! The following quote is from an article written in October of 1961 after Graham gave an interview to Lutheran clergyman Wilfred Bockelman, who was then the associate editor of The Lutheran Standard: "I do believe that something happens at the baptism of an infant, particularly if the parents are Christians and teach their children Christian truths from childhood. We cannot fully understand the mysteries of God, but I believe a miracle can happen in these children so that they are regenerated, that is, made Christians through infant baptism. If you want to call that baptismal regeneration, that's all right with me" (10/10/61, The Lutheran Standard). [Note: Graham had his own children baptized as infants as well although he has pretended to be a Baptist all these years.]

Graham also believes that men can be saved apart from the Name of Christ. (Source: 5/31/98 television interview with Robert Schuller, as reported in the May-June 1997, Foundation magazine.):
SCHULLER: Tell me, what do you think is the future of Christianity?

GRAHAM: Well, Christianity and being a true believer -- you know, I think there's the Body of Christ. This comes from all the Christian groups around the world, outside the Christian groups. I think everybody that loves Christ, or knows Christ, whether they're conscious of it or not, they're members of the Body of Christ. [How can anyone love Christ or know Christ and not be conscious of it (Rom. 8:9,16; 10:14; 1 John 3:24; 4:13; John 3:18)?] And I don't think that we're going to see a great sweeping revival that will turn the whole world to Christ at any time. I think James answered that -- the Apostle James in the first council in Jerusalem, when he said that God's purpose for this age is to call out a people for His name. And that's what God is doing today, He's calling people out of the world for His name, whether they come from the Muslim world, or the Buddhist world, or the Christian world, or the non-believing world, they are members of the Body of Christ because they've been called by God. They may not even know the name of Jesus, but they know in their hearts that they need something that they don't have, and they turn to the only light that they have, and I think that they are saved, and that they're going to be with us in heaven.

SCHULLER: Well, what I hear you saying, that it's possible for Jesus Christ to come into human hearts and soul and life, even if they've been born in darkness and have never had exposure to the Bible. Is that a correct interpretation of what you're saying?

GRAHAM: Yes, it is, because I believe that. I've met people in various parts of the world in tribal situations, that they have never seen a Bible or heard about a Bible, and never heard of Jesus, but they've believed in their hearts that there was a God, and they've tried to live a life that was quite apart from the surrounding community in which they lived.
See the linked page for more info on the Graham/Schuller connection and his connections with various Roman clergy, grossly apostate liberal clergy and non-Christian imposters like Norman Peale. Or just google up something like 'Billy Graham apostate'. The info has been widely available for many years.

Graham has a long history of supporting the very worst modern versions of the Bible, of being a propaganda mouthpiece for repressive Communist regimes, of carrying converts to Rome and praising the Roman church while pretending he's a Baptist, of being a big supporter of National Council of Churches and charismania and every other trapping of modernism you can name. If he's missed one, I'm sure it's only an oversight.

Only rubes are taken in by Graham's little medicine show. Thus far, his son Franklin shows a stalwart and orthodox Christian bearing in his statements and he's no coward about saying it. But then, Billy started off much the same way back in the Forties and Fifties and apostasized after gaining his following. Time will tell.

In Billy Graham, we see the final result of embracing the New Evangelicalism. Graham's greatest dishonesty was in how he pretended to be a true fundamentalist while leading people toward New Evangelicalism. The damage inflicted by his career on American Christianity can only be compared to such disasters as the Oxford Movement or the work of Finney or the liberal leadership takeover among the traditional Protestant mainstream churches.

Here's something better than a transcript doubting Thomas. This is a link to a sermon by rev. David DiCanio. It is a mp3 sermon on Ecumenism. It has two sound clips including an interview between Dicanio and Robert Schuller, and also a sound clip of Robert Schuller interviewing Billy Graham.

Also, here is a few interesting pages wich testifies Billy Graham's Involvement with the Rcc, his support of homosexuality, abortion, the gospel of inclusion, and also his hidden lifestyle as a 33rd degree freemason. Especially interesting in my opinion is the blog comments in the last url:
