Billy Graham Endorses New Age Occultist...Sir John Marks Templeton
As you have seen so far, we have
provided many of Graham's links to Freemasonry and awards that Freemasons have
presented to him.
Many of you out there are still
skeptical about the character of Billy Graham. Presented in this article is
irrefutable evidence that Graham has truly departed from the faith and now
endorses a New Age Billionaire.
Here is the book authored by John
Marks Templeton entitled "Discovering the Laws of Life." As you can
see 33rd Degree Freemason Norman Vincent Peale wrote the foreword to the book.
Christianity Today (4/24/94) placed an advertisement for this book including
quotes from 33rd Degree Freemason Robert Schuller and also 33rd Degree
Freemason Billy Graham endorsing this evil New Age book.
One extract from this book states
the following...
Calling the belief that Christ is
the only way to heaven, dogmatism and pride, Templeton declares: "[T]he basic
principles for leading a 'sublime life'... may be derived from any religious
tradition, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist and others, as well as
Christian" (pages 6-7).
Another New Age teaching we can
attribute to John is the false doctrine that God is within all people and that
there is no sinful nature in mankind.
"Our innate goodness is an
essential fact of our existence. When we perceive this truth we will experience
Heaven on Earth - peace and the presence of God within us...be honest and true.
Love all parts of yourself, the GODHEAD within you."
Templeton and his neopagan views
were first introduced to the church and promoted to evangelicals in 1986 by
Robert Schuller, who continues to endorse him. Schuller's Possibilities
magazine put Templeton's picture on its front cover, and its major article in
that issue was an interview with Templeton. In it he expressed his
Unity/Religious Science/New Age beliefs: "Your spiritual principles
attract prosperity to you... material success... comes... from being in tune
with the infinite.... The Christ spirit dwells in every human being whether the
person knows it or not... nothing exists except God." (Possibilities,
Summer 1986, pp 8-12).
This is rank New Age heresy! Jesus
said "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the
Father, but by me." There is NO OTHER WAY to God but thru JESUS CHRIST.
The Word of God teaches that only
those who have placed their faith in the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ to
cleanse their sins and are truly born again have God dwell inside them.
Why would Billy Graham endorse such
a book that contains such anti-biblical teachings?
The answer is simple! In 1982,
Graham was awarded the Templeton Prize for progress in religion.
This award is currently the highest
paid in the world, at an estimated 1 Million US dollars.

Billy Graham receives the 'payoff'
from Freemason Prince Philip.
This is what I define a Masonic
award.
These awards have Masonic
connections.
In this case Graham's award is
presented to him by a Freemason. Also seen at my Masonic Award and Praises for
Billy Graham page is Graham receiving his medal by two 33rd Degree Freemasons.
Why are Freemasons involved in
awarding Billy Graham?
Another Masonic connection: John Marks Templeton is a Rhodes Scholar.
Cecil Rhodes was a member of the
Illuminati and a friend of the Masonic Rothchild family.
Many Masons that have been in a
powerful position in society are also Rhodes scholars such as Bob Hawke the
ex-PM
Denslow's 10,000 Famous Freemasons
also lists Prince Philip, the Duke of
"Philip was initiated in Navy
Lodge No.2612 of
Other recipients of the Templeton
award include Charles Colson and Bill Bright.
Billy Graham has received 2 other
Masonic awards that I am currently aware of.
This information will be posted as
soon as possible.
