Don't know anything about Franklin... having known many minister's kids, most weren't angels, and seldom live up to their father's legacy... but maybe he has.

Anyway Billy has a legacy, he brought the story of Christ to millions, I truly feel he was led by the Holy Spirit. Yet he was a man and all men are unperfect.

It's the exact way I feel about Paul. Of course I will be attacked for saying this about Paul... Paul brought Jesus to the masses, he did a good job as an unperfect man, he was led by the Holy Spirit. But his words are his, not God's, same as Billy Graham.

Good works like helping your fellow man is a natural byproduct of following Christ, it can't be taught or forced, it just is.

Except he wasn't perfect either, will probably relate to your inquiry.

Apparently Billy Graham modeled his ministry after that of Charles Finney who was the primary figure in the Revivalist movement.

Charles Finney denied original sin, denied the substitutionary work of Christ and taught a governmental faith of works. Had the American church convened to consider his teachings (as it should have) he would have been rightly labeled a heretic and his teachings heretical.

Since Finney became influential pretty much any movement in America that is supposed to be Christian is influenced by this man and his teachings.

Make up your own mind about Billy Graham but this influence can’t be denied. It is a fact of history.

Nobody's got it right, not Billy, not Paul, not Joseph Smith, not Mother Terisa, not the Pope... not me... God didn't expect for us to get it right 100% in this world... and that's Jesus's life lesson... it's very simple.

I’d make my bet that God didn’t intend for anyone to get it THAT wrong.

I'm not asking this in an accusing way or to cast F.G. in a bad light but does anyone know if he did as Steve Hornady and require his people to be vaccinated? He employs quite a few people. Just asking, not saying.

yes, if you are equating old school vaccines with this new mRNA test gene-therapy, I'm going to have to call you an idiot. Wake up.

Another death in my community last week, 53 yr old male, got the JNJ shot one day, dead the next. All these spiked proteins react to some peoples system and cause blood clots and heart attacks.

Brother Kent;
Top of the morning to you my cyber friend and brother, I hope it's a good day for you folks down in your area and all in your wonderful family are doing okay.

Way, way back when, Billy Graham came to Vancouver for a crusade and of course the local TV station sent some keener reporter down to interview him and possibly find some fatal flaw to expose.

As I recall, Billy Graham and about 6 other folks went down to a local grocery store, picked up a van load of groceries, went to a local food bank and then Billy Graham spent at least an hour talking to the folks there - both the ones working and the folks coming to receive the food.

The reporter more or less quietly said they were pretty moved by the whole experience.

I've read Franklin Graham's book back when too, might still have it in fact. When the girls were little we got involved supporting Samaritan's Purse, especially Operation Christmas Child and we still do. I'm not sure that the girls don't too now that I think about it.

Anyways, a little town two valleys over had a catastrophic flood a couple springs ago Kent and naturally the part of town containing a mobile home park which was build on a flood plain got savaged. Funny how any natural disaster seems to hit the mobile home parks, you know?

Before any Canadian government whatever was in helping and before the Canadian Red Cross - there were boots on the ground from Samaritan's Purse helping folks there. They were helping with clean up, food, whatever they could.

Again the local news station out of Kelowna came away impressed.

That's all I know about that Brother Kent, which admittedly isn't much.

As you said, we're all human and most days I'm "extremely human" and struggle to keep my own life between the ditches. Some of my fellow humans do a much better job assisting other fellow humans than I do, that much I'm sure of Kent.

I'll add Franklin Graham to the list of folks I pray for daily for sure.

All the very best to you all as we head into cooler and much shorter days.

Dwayne

I dont follow good works philosophy. I made a commitment with I was 18 yrs old. I am sanctified and justified and one of the elect. I have security of the believer as well.

I do the boxes and have done them for almost 20 years. I think it’s a great think to bring a little bit of happiness to some dirt poor kid who lives in a miserable shîthole.

Our church buys the boxes and for $5 you can pour all types of needs in it. When school starts every year, they put those spiral notebooks on sale for like .25 cents and same on those crayons. Big time loss leaders.

Instead of filling the school bus outside for entitlement ghetto rats in the walmart parking lot. I send my stuff around the world

Most my upstairs bonus room, I have bins with stored up and organized with all that type stuff. Keep an eye out all during the year for things that might make a cool addition to the box.

slumlord;
Top of the morning to you sir.

Good man and good post.

I'm with you on spreading some happiness if we're able to. Why not, right?

Good luck on your hunting and all the best.

Dwayne
