When was Billy Graham Born

7 November 1918 (close to 11.11)

Some prophetically minded people feel that the (future) passing of Billy Graham into glory could herald the end of the Church age, and possibly the final outpouring of the Holy Spirit on all flesh that would catapult the Church into the Rapture.  It is, however, worth reflecting on when he was born:  7 November 1918!!  Yes, just four days before the signing of the World War 1 armistice at 11am on 11 November 1918 (11.11.18).

Billy Graham's life and ministry has spanned over 98 years!!  The impact of the Billy Graham meetings in Australia was immense (I still recall attending a meeting at the Sydney Cricket Ground when I was young).  Many do not look at the impact of the Billy Graham properly, focusing on how many of the converts remain as believers today.  However, the impact of the Billy Graham meetings has flowed down to so many who found Christ indirectly through the witness of the initial converts, including within families.

Billy Graham remains the most known evangelist in Australian homes today.  While we hope he lives on, the passing of Billy Graham, whenever that is (the Lord only knows!), could be one signal of the final revival in the Church and headline the imminent Rapture!!!

A final note of caution.  While the charisma of Billy Graham’s preaching was so very effective for good, a great harvest of souls, the charisma of the Antichrist and the False prophet could deceive many, including Christians.
