Before Joel showed up, there was Billy

False gospels, false teachers, false apostles, false leadership has been going on long before Joel Osteen showed up on the world's stage. Billy Graham and his universalism (on top of many other doctrines) have been leading people astray for years.

In this clip above you will hear him clearly state on May 31st, 1997 that if people (no matter who) are so much as searching for something they call God, they are part of the Body of Christ, and that we'll no doubt see them in heaven. Oops. That's found no where in the bible. This was (from where we are now) 21 years ago.

Since then, pastors and ministries have looked up to Billy Graham, emulated him, copied him, tried to follow what he does in hopes of being more "Christ-like" no doubt, and the result? Mass confusion, the church on your street corner, and Joel Osteen.

Without a doubt people will all come together in the future to worship the antichrist, as he will proclaim that he is God, and everyone will fall for it. The "seeds of universalism" essentially set the seat for him already in that manner, but make no mistake, The Lord Jesus Christ is to be preached according to the revelation of the Mystery today (Romans 16:25-26), with the Apostle Paul as a pattern (1 Timothy 1:16) and universalism has no place in this.

Universalists today using bible doctrine will even run to 2 Corinthians 5:19 to prove their wayward point, stating that since Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay for sin, then everyone must be saved. And that's not the case. Salvation is available to all, however one must believe this to be so, according to the bible rightly divided (1 Corinthians 15:3-4). It's too late to tell Billy Graham Sr., but not Billy Graham Jr.
