Gods will is that ALL men come to repentance and faith! Many millions of lost souls flock to the dead church this time of the year to hear a dead message that Jesus loves them IN thies sins, and IF they just believe in Him, they are saved!

This is a doctrine of demons, promoted by the likes of Billy Graham, many will scoff at the narrow way gospel that was lost about 500 years ago, when the reformers came in and added in thier original sin, do nothing, substitution gospel!

If the preachers today had the courage to preach the truth, calling the sick to repent or perish, go and sin no more, depart from iniquity, seek first His kingdom, cleans yourself, and preach a message that would cut the masses to the heart, where we would see repentance on the scale of Nineveh, with much satcloth and ashes, then most churches this holiday season would be empty!



Open your eyes and listen!




Mat 13:16 But blessedareyour eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.



Mat 13:17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteousmenhave desired to seethose thingswhich ye see, and have not seenthem;and to hearthose thingswhich ye hear, and have not heardthem.

The word of God appeals to many God given senses, such as seeing with your eyes, and hearing with your ears, but Jesus Himself warned us to be careful how we see and hear His word and truth.
Today there seems to be legions and legions of Bible scholars, reformed teachers, Doctors of divinity, mega preachers, and high powered ministries that enthrall a form of godliness but deny its power!
But Jesus made it clear in His great teachings:
2Co 11:3 But I fear, lest perhaps as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ!
The message is simple, Jesus also said a child would perceive the truth more that most scholars who have been so deceived by the reformed doctrines, they cannot see or hear the simplicity that is in Christ.
Mat 18:2 And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,
Mat 18:3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Jesus preached a simple message as well as the profits of old, which was repentance and faith both proven by deeds (conduct, heart purity) over the very popular message multitudes have been deceived by, that tells them they were born sinners, Jesus was their substitute, took their wrath on the cross, and now by just believing as the devils believe, you are eternally secure, all sins pre forgiven, nothing else to do but sit back, enjoy the ride, waiting for the rapture to come and wisk you up into heaven with Christ.
Jesus mainly preached to the simple people of His day, making His powerful message available for all, the simple, and poor in spirit, to see, hear and understand His simple message, that has been totally distorted and confused with an exchange gospel getting sinful mankind saved IN their sins and disobedience. While waiting for God to miraculously make them stop. When in reality God is asking His creation to repent (stop) their sin and rebellion against Him, first as scripture clearly teaches, then seek His mercy, instead of waiting for something that usually never happens! ISA 55-7.
They wait and wait, while their sight and hearing go blind and deaf, they love to quote these high powered Bible scholars and their favorite reformed preachers, who all endorsed many false and pagan teachings making Christianity what it is today! Poor, blind and naked!
1Co 15:34 Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame!

Agree in almost whole your post!Let we call the things by original name!

West Europe with Papal doctrine of infallible man expelled Godman Jesus Christ as something redundant and reduced HIM to the extent of the sky,after some 500years after it came Protestants with doctrine of infallible of hole men kind.By running from whole-heresy of Papal infallible,they didn't came back to the Spring of All Truth,but just rised old heresies,which were defeted by the Holy Spirit,WHO is with HIS earthly Church in all time,until end of world!
The TRUTH is only 1 and it has been established in HIS Church and any adding of even 1 letter will twist that TRUTH and that new Jesus wont be our Savior!

I'm sorry but you are wrong.. it is because we believe he died on the cross and rose again and it's because we believe he is the alpha and omaga we are not only saved from the dispicable sin but god considers us his children. As if we were born from him as jesus was not because of anything we have done but because of what jesus did for us. From the begining of the world that was his plan all along and it pleased him, this does not mean of course that we may do as we please, because as jesus said if you love me you will obey my commands. So if we have truly accepted him and we really do love him we may have no fear and we will naturally obey his commands because we love him and want to please him. Isn't that beautiful?

I send you the word of God, if you mean Billy Graham, he teaches a saved IN sin, substitution false gospel, he is a false teacher leading millions into perdition, abiding IF you think Billy is a sound teacher, I have nothing furthur to say to you, as you do not want truth, cannot see through your saved IN sin gospel, and do not believe the word of God, I urge you all to repent of your false ways, crucify your flesh with Christ, and follow Him on the narow road!

My messages are for those who have ears to hear, and are not under the strong delusion God promised to send to those who do not love the truth!

2Th 2:10 and with all deceit of unrighteousness in those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, so that they might be saved.
2Th 2:11 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie,

But sin is no longer to be feared when we accept christ, it is irrelavent now. what we should focus on now is saving others and showing them god's love. The lie is that people still for some reason post scriptures to show people to repent for their sins and really cause more harm than good. love is gentle, patient, kind. even if someone is for example gay, you do not say repent you sin or you will die and go to the eternal fire! you kindly and slowly lead them to christ. Just by giving them acceptance and words of encouragement will do that. So don't waste time speaking of the ways of sin, and help the least of his sheep.

Has our LORD ever not boldly told people to repent, to turn from there sin. What did God tell Jonah to tell the people in Nineveh?
Jonah 1:1-2 1. Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
2. Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.
- Bible KJV

God did not instruct Jonah to go speak real nice and gently break it to them that they are doing wrong.
God has always spoke very clearly and to the point against sin of every kind

What happens if you are ever so gently working up to showing someone they are living in sin and that person dies in an auto accident before you tell them? There blood will be on your hands because you did not warn them.

We must teach others what is sin and what the wages of sin is.

No we do not just storm people and tell them they are a sinner going to hell.
But we must inform them that if they continue in there sin they will die an eternal death being cast into the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone.

Then i guess I will take my chances, Maybe my way is different from yours but this is what I believe god would want. But either way I think posting things about sin and to repent is counterproductive, And i suppose i am just to nice to tell people the things you believe in but god looks at the heart.

Another weird post. Starts off attacking Billy Graham and then makes a false assertion that if we all shred our clothing and dump ashes on our head everyone will want to be like us.

Matthew 7

Judge not, that ye be not judged. 2For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. 3And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? 4Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? 5Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.
6Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

7Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 9Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

12Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.

13Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

15Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. 18A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. 19Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. 20Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

24Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

28And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: 29For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.
Feed yourselves of the Good Message.

Is that how Paul taught? I see him clearly rebuking sin and warning people to flee the wrath of God lest they perish in their sins and lose their souls.

1Co 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
1Co 6:10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
Gal 5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
Gal 5:21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

Eph 4:17 This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,
Eph 4:18 Having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart:
Eph 4:19 Who being past feeling have given themselves over unto lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greediness.
Eph 4:20 But ye have not so learned Christ;
Eph 4:21 If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus:
Eph 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
Eph 4:23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; [THIS IS A DIRECT PARALLEL TO JAMES 1:21-22, you CANNOT be renewed if you don't put off the former wicked conduct)
Eph 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Eph 4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
Eph 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:
Eph 4:27 Neither give place to the devil.
Eph 4:28 Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth.
Eph 4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Eph 4:31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:
Eph 4:32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
Eph 5:1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
Eph 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
Eph 5:3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
Eph 5:4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
Eph 5:5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Eph 5:6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
Eph 5:7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.

Eph 5:8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

Who is by the way Billy Graham?
Billy Graham is a famous and very popular evangelist.

He preaches from a reformed theological perspective. He basically teaches that all one has to do to "be saved" is "accept and trust in Jesus." He does not preach the strait gate and narrow way Jesus taught. He does not teach that old man must die in repentance, thus his message when it is stripped of all the smooth sounding rhetoric is really just a false gospel which cloaks the ongoing rebellion of a sinner. He denies heart purity is possible and thus supplants it with the obedient track record of Jesus being credited to the sinners account, thus salvation to Billy Graham is purely an abstract book keeping entry and has nothing to do with actual conduct.

BGEA: Billy Graham Evangelistic Association
Billy Graham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Billy Graham is a wolf who appears outwardly as a lamb. He has deceived untold millions of people with his false gospel.



Here is a video which examines the fundamentals of what Billy Graham teaches and compares it to the Scripture.

Well I am not paul, I follow the teachings Jesus made in my heart. I make my own path and save others with kindness and gentleness. Are we supposed to mirror paul? No, he had his own style of teaching and saving and everyone is different. I choose to save and help others with love and encouragment because thats just who i am if you disagree with me then that's ok because like me you have your own way and you make your own path

I have never seen you post Graham's teaching on repentance. Please post it again, I don't watch or read these boards all day long.

Here is what Billy Graham teaches in regards as to how to get saved...
http://www.billygraham.org/

Step 1 - God so loved the world

Does God love me? The answer is in the Bible, God’s Word:
“I have loved you with an everlasting love.” — Jeremiah 31:3
God loves you, and He loves you with a love that you don’t know anything about, because there is no human love comparable to divine love. God loves you. He wants to forgive you. He wants to have fellowship with you.
“God is love.”— 1 John 4:16

It doesn’t make any difference how far you try to run from God. He loves you. His eye is on you. He sees you. God loves you, and the Bible says that God sent His Son from heaven to this earth for you. Jesus Christ came to this earth to take your sins upon a cross. God has a plan for your life.
“‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord. ‘Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future.’”
— Jeremiah 29:11
God created us in His image, and you are important to God.
“Indeed the very hairs of your head are numbered.”— Luke 12:7
Step 2 - That He gave His only Son

Who is Jesus? What does His life, death and resurrection mean for me?
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” — John 14:6
Many go through life unfulfilled, unfocused, searching − a blank canvas waiting for a picture of purpose to be painted on us. What does it all mean?



Step 3 - That whoever believes in Him


Can God really change my life?
No matter who you are or how you’ve lived your life, God will receive you into His family. He will change you and make you complete. Trust Him as millions of others have done and experience His mercy for yourself.
“I am the Lord, the God of all mankind. Is anything too hard for me?
— Jeremiah 32:27

“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in.” — Revelation 3:20
“The Spirit of the Lord will come upon you in power, … and you will be changed into a different person.” — 1 Samuel 10:6
Step 4 - Should not perish

What do I have to do to go to heaven?God isn’t waiting to judge you. God isn’t waiting to condemn you. He’s waiting to receive you with mercy, with love, with open arms, and forgive all your sins. Will you come to Him? Will you turn from your sin and promise to live for Him?
“If you confess with your mouth, Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.” — Romans 10:9
“To all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.” — John 1:12
He asked, “‘What must I do to be saved?’ They replied, ‘Believe in the Lord Jesus and you will be saved.’” — Acts 16:30,31

http://peacewithgod.jesus.net/

It is summed up with...

God knows who you are, He loves you, and He wants you to know and love Him.
How do you do that?
You must first admit that, like everyone else, you are a sinner. Being sinners means that we are imperfect and do wrong; we fall short of God’s perfect standard. It also means we are separated from Him and deserve His judgment.
But He loves us! God sent His own Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins. He died for your sins. He was punished so you don’t have to be. Not only that; death did not defeat Him. After three days, Jesus rose from the dead, alive again!
Trusting in Jesus’ sacrifice for you is the only way to find forgiveness from God and to begin a relationship with Him. We urge you to take this step of faith today. To do that, simply talk to God – this is called praying – and tell Him you believe in His Son. We suggest a prayer like this:
“Lord Jesus Christ,
I am sorry for the things I have done wrong in my life. I ask your forgiveness and now turn from everything which I know is wrong. Thank you for dying on the cross for me to set me free from my sins. Please come into my life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and be with me forever.
Thank you Lord Jesus, Amen.”
Billy Graham's false lying gospel is a compilation of isolated scripture used to prove a gospel message which omits the strait gate and narrow way, omits the crucifixion of the flesh with the passions and desires in repentance, omits the escaping the corruption that is in the world through lust, omits the requirement of having to add to your faith, omits true manifested heart purity, omits all the conditions laid out by God that must be adhered to that mercy and entrance into the kingdom be granted.

Billy Graham teaches Original Sin and thus teaches that sin is a disease as opposed to a crime. Billy Graham teaches Penal Substitution and the transfer of Jesus obedience to the sinners account which means he believes that salvation is merely a book keeping entry and is thus completely abstract from the manifest conduct of a believer.

Strip all the fluff and you have "Ye can sin and not surely die."


My conscience is very clear before God in regards to speaking against the lying gospel of the false teacher of Billy Graham.

Tommy, I get it this way... NOT ONE OF GOD'S APPOINTED OFFICE BEARERS WERE "JUST A MAN".

Come let us all learn something about GODLY APPOINTED MEN! God does not appoint sinners to do HOLY work. Get this into your hearts, heads and souls.... GOD HIMSELF APPOINTS HIS TEACHERS, Like Paul. Read Eph 4:11 to 13. BLAIN read Eph 4:11 to 13. And then read 2 Peter 1:21.

Now look what God says about HIS APPOINTED PREACHERS... They are ALL MEN DRIVEN/MOVED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT! WOW! God moves these men, sorry HOLY MEN! They ARE NOT MEN! They are HOLY MEN!

Here is the difference.... MEN are like me, JUST A MAN.... HOLY MEN ARE LIKE JESUS.... NOT JUST A MAN! If only I could be one of these....

Here is the text to make it clear...
Eph 4:11 to 13....
And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;
Eph 4:12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:
Eph 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

2 Peter 1:21...
For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they weremoved by the Holy Ghost.

Well I am not paul, I follow the teachings Jesus made in my heart. I make my own path and save others with kindness and gentleness. Are we supposed to mirror paul? No, he had his own style of teaching and saving and everyone is different. I choose to save and help others with love and encouragment because thats just who i am if you disagree with me then that's ok because like me you have your own way and you make your own path
Are we supposed to mirror Paul? Yes we are to mirror Paul. We are to mirror Paul because he mirrored Christ and we are to mirror Jesus Christ.

1Co 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ.

Paul was simply following Jesus Christ. Paul was not teaching anything that contradicted Jesus Christ.

Paul preached repentance proven by deeds for this is what Jesus commanded him to do.

Act 26:14 And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
Act 26:15 And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
Act 26:16 But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;
Act 26:17 Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee,
Act 26:18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
Act 26:19 Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:
Act 26:20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance.

Jesus preached the same thing...

Mat_9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Luk_24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.


Luk 13:2 And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?
Luk 13:3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
Luk 13:4 Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?
Luk 13:5 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
Luk 13:6 He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.
Luk 13:7 Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?
Luk 13:8 And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:
Luk 13:9 And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.


Mat 21:28 But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard.
Mat 21:29 He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went.
Mat 21:30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not.
Mat 21:31 Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.
Mat 21:32 For John came unto you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the harlots believed him: and ye, when ye had seen it, repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.



Yet you say...

But sin is no longer to be feared when we accept christ, it is irrelavent now. what we should focus on now is saving others and showing them god's love. The lie is that people still for some reason post scriptures to show people to repent for their sins and really cause more harm than good. love is gentle, patient, kind. even if someone is for example gay, you do not say repent you sin or you will die and go to the eternal fire! you kindly and slowly lead them to christ. Just by giving them acceptance and words of encouragement will do that. So don't waste time speaking of the ways of sin, and help the least of his sheep.
Where does the Bible teach that "sin is no longer to be feared when we accept Christ' ????????

You claim to be making your own way and following the teachings of Jesus in your heart.

This Jesus you speak of sounds like "another" Jesus to me.



Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Mat 7:23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

tommy your a quack Billy never preached what your saying he did
and noone preaches we go sin willy nilly.
Besides billy was just a man....are you preaching the whole councill of God?
what did Jesus mean when He told the Pharisees they had no mercy?

Ive been in lots of churches that preach the true gospel
Yet you claim noone does. have fun
Another weird post. Starts off attacking Billy Graham and then makes a false assertion that if we all shred our clothing and dump ashes on our head everyone will want to be like us.
While I agree the post seems a little weird, there is some truth here about Graham.

skinski how does your conscience allow you to continue with this you know
i already put up Grahams teachings on repentance just as you claimed he didnt teach
cant you get you own material honestly yourself or are you a puppet
Let's see for ourselves what Graham believes. Don't post against my statement UNTILL you watch the whole thing.
