I think you should have been spared the task in this case.<br /><br />Besides Graham's compromised approach to Roman Catholicism we have to remember his inclusivism towards liberal unbelief (for example in platform cooperation with liberals and willingness to direct his converts to non-evangelical churches.<br /><br />Does Nüesch have anything to say about the "legacy" of false professions of faith? I remember speaking to one pastor and his wife (anecdotal, I know) who told me of a Graham crusade in their country which had produced 200 "conversions" for them to receive. Not a single one, they told me, had been added to the church.<br /><br />Did anyone do greater damage to the cause of the gospel in the twentieth century?Benhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02072015658089535103noreply@blogger.com
