Billy Graham on Divine plurality & the unseen realm

1918 – 2018 · SOUTHERN BAPTIST / EVANGELICAL
NOT LOCATED IN A SOURCENO POSITION FOUND
NO STANCE — AND WHY

No position located on this map

Searched in the sources read for this figure and not found. A limit of the reading rather than a claim about the figure — a source not yet read could settle it.

THE POSITION

Nothing found. Searches for Psalm 82, "ye are gods" and the divine council on billygraham.org turned up only a Minute where "our gods" means fashion and fortune. An unofficial copy of Angels (1975) touches Genesis 6:2 but does not answer this locus. Not found in what was read, not a claim that he never framed the question.

ABOUT THIS FIGURE

Evangelist of the citywide crusades from 1947 to 2005, ordained a Southern Baptist minister, founder, with L. Nelson Bell, of Christianity Today (1956) and convener of the 1974 Lausanne Congress. He is generally reckoned to have preached in person to more people than anyone before him and was the public face of postwar evangelicalism. This entry rests on sermon texts dated 1951 to 2005 that the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association republishes on the Decision magazine website, his recorded Billy Graham Minutes, his daily devotions, interviews he gave to Time, Christianity Today, Newsweek and Robert Schuller, and the My Answer column that ran under his name. By the standard account the column was written with staff, so cells that rest on it say so.
