young billy graham

young billy graham in black and white
shouting what would jesus do?
quickly telling bible stories
comparing then to now
proclaiming the end
is near. Speaking

out against military power.
jeremiah warned the people
and told them to repent of their sins
and jesus asked the disciples
who do you say that I am? and peter said
the messiah, the son of the living god.

if you’ve seen him before, you know
where this is going. billy graham is
introducing you to jesus.

when jesus was working in the carpentry shop
and cut his finger he bled warm blood,
just like you. no matter what you experience,
death, he’s been there. he fell asleep on a boat.

but jesus was more than man; he was god.

he quotes scripture and current events.
shouting i wrestled with that question for days!
he was a deceiver, a maniac, or the son of god.
he said love instead of hate, turn the other cheek,
forgive 7 times 70 times.

he healed on the sabbath day.
he’s a living savior; he’s alive today.
billy graham testifies: if I found out jesus never
lived it wouldn’t affect my faith because i’ve experienced it!
it goes on and on. billy graham covers it all:

it’s a matter of faith.

whether you like it or not, you’re going to make a decision today.
he lays it out. everything. neglect can become rejection. you can miss the plane. you’re hardening your heart. he’s saying why you might reject or receive him; he’s saying it might be too late; he’s preparing you for, talking you through, the decision. he says there’s NO MUTUAL GROUND. billy graham has done everything a man can do to bring you to this point:

like it or not, you have a decision to make.

he tells you, based on his experience, the experience of millions of others, and the bible, that your life can change, today, right now. he says you’ll still have problems. billy graham doesn’t sugarcoat it. but jesus will be with you. night after night,

billy graham
brings people
to this decision.
