    I just watched a hour long training session for hunting dogs… labs specifically. My brother used to own labs and is toying with getting one and training it for pheasant hunting in the fall. Now that’s easier said than done because training takes alot of time and commitment. I view this just like I do for discipling a person. Rolling into town with a goal and doing a couple of sermons, I don’t believe is enough, especially if your going to a country like Poland that has been mostly Roman Catholic for centuries. They in fact broke with the Communists (Russians) domination because of the strength of the RCC and The pope who was a Polish citizen so what your doing is attempting to break that bond… good luck with that agenda. Now then, what’s Grahams long term goals to disciple these people after he has gotten them to walk the isle? How’s he going to administer to them & groom them… there is going to be a lot of friction in those families. I’m part Polish myself and the Polish in my neighborhood still say Polish & Latin masses every week, screw this goof of a pope nobody likes. Forget him! BTW, last time I looked, Franklin Graham isn’t a Slavic ethnic person … who lost his country to Nazi Germany and Commie Russia … now the RCC was there through those dark times & is credited for helping with both eradicating the Nazis and the Commies, thus making them a sovereign free country again… so let’s see how Franklin deals with that.

    2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

    Terrible attitude. You put down the gospel being proclaimed, calling it a show, but then you want this so called show for Americans.



    "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
    - Matthew 28:19-20

    Noooo, you are not hearing me. I wouldn’t consider this particular “show” profitable for anyone. The premise of this show is to have humans freely select God which I personally view as works based, Name it and Claim it (salvation) by your self. Look Lord I’m giving myself to you as a gift … because I’ve deceived to. Where is the interaction with the Holy Spirit? I don’t see it with Frankie. Go back to your testimonial attachment where the last woman deliberately tells us she decided to get saved. Did anyone corrected her?

    Much has been written about the Grahams. I've read about what is perceived as their easy believism, but I've never seen them accused of preaching name-it-and-claim-it.
    As for being in Poland, it's a much a mission field as WVA.

    I accuse them, me… I’ve decided they are false. But so have allot of other people… so open your eyes brother and see the truth. Most of these people will not accept this, they will go running back to the RCC for spiritual instruction. If not then the Orthodox Church, but Franklin Graham??? He is a quiet diversion to these peoples real worldview

    My eyes were opened close to 50 years ago. The folks I fellowship with withdrew their support back in the 1950s. IMHO, the Grahams are guilty of enough stuff, that I don't need to over charge them.

    The Man In The Mirror looks back at me
    I'm not now, what I use to be
    I can't erase the dirt on my face
    Not by my merit, only by his grace
    He opened my eyes, so I could see
    The Man in the Mirror who looks looks back at me... Brother Glen:)

    Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

    9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

    They are not a sovereign free country. They joined Nato unfortunately. They are under our boot.
