Billy Graham and Catholics

Peter and Paul Ministries

Should a Catholic attend The Billy Graham Crusade or any other Protestant sect?

Answer: No Catholic should be associated with these organizations because their teachings are diametrically opposed to Christ�s One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church. The Billy Graham Crusade and other Protestant sects reject: The Roman Pontiff, The Four Major Dogmas about the Blessed Virgin Mary, Purgatory, The Intercession of the Saints, Justification by Faith and Works, The Holy Eucharist, The Necessity of Baptism, The Sacraments of Confession and Confirmation, Original Sin, Holy Orders, Extreme Unction, and many other doctrines.

Every Catholic should know that the Holy Roman Catholic Church has infallibly declared and still professes:

"The most Holy Roman Church firmly believes, professes and preaches that none of those existing outside the Catholic Church, not only pagans, but also Jews and heretics and schismatics, can have a share in life eternal; but that they will go into the eternal fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels, unless before death they are joined with Her; and that so important is the unity of this ecclesiastical body that only those remaining within this unity can profit by the sacraments of the Church unto salvation, and they alone can receive an eternal recompense for their fasts, their almsgivings, their other works of Christian piety and the duties of a Christian soldier. No one, let his almsgiving be as great as it may, no one, even if he pour out his blood for the Name of Christ, can be saved, unless he remain within the bosom and the unity of the Catholic Church." (Pope Eugene IV, the Bull Cantate Domino, 1441.)
