If you watch old celebrity roast Billy gram went to some of them siting on the Plat from with Movie stars no wonder why America was blessed even it was not right it had a respect for God
Amen! He was here to teach the word of God& to teach the world how important it is to be born again,also the importance of prayer,worship& praise; to establish& keep a close relationship with God. There will never be another man like him to have such a powerful influence on the world.
Even though his politics were not the same as mine, he still did a good job of being the best Christian that he could be. He was a class act, all the way around.
Anyone that knows Jesus should be saying the same things to everyone but many believer's will not speak up even when they are asked to give an answer !
@@Tiffany4Jesus1 i’ve always stayed away from evangelist who were multimillionaires. Because of Jesus’s teaching. But I always liked Billy Graham very much. However, recently I found out he was worth $25 million. I’m not sure what to think of it. We all know that Jesus said “it is easier for a camel to cross through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to make it to heaven“.
Billy Graham is a man of God. He surrender his life to God at a young age until his last breath. R.I.P in heaven. God welcome you in heaven with an open arms and said well done my true follower and faithful servant.🙏❤️
@@joebiggs4387Billy was truly one of the greatest men of God. Through one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit, some people, including me, are able to DISCERN that (1 Corinthians 12:7-10) Jesus Christ does not dispute being rich. In the verse you are referencing I believe Jesus meant that it is hard for most rich people to enter the kingdom of God as most idolize their worldly richness thereby struggling to prioritize, love, honor and serve God wholeheartedly. I believe He meant that rich people set their identity anf hearts on their worldly richness instead of striving to have a personal relationship with God as we ought to. God says we should take care of the needs of the poor at various levels. And we won't be able to do that in lack. In conclusion. I believe God can bless you financially. However, your finances ought not be your God. When you prioritize your call. God will instruct you on how to be a blessing to others with your finances. All for His Glory. 🙏🏽 I hope this changes your perspective on being rich. Better yet. Inquire with the Lord on the matter. I know for a fact that God through His Holy Holy will give you a response when you seek Him wholeheartedly on the matter

I remember as a 13 year old in '67 watching his summer crusades. Then one evening when he gave an invitation to accept Jesus - I did. From that point on, I can see his hand on me even when I suffered a stroke just as I returned stateside from serving in Iraq with the Army. As I laid in the ambulance, I asked God what could I learn from this experience to help the next guy. I heard "Nothing more will happen to you." Then the driver asked my attendant "Slow or fast?" The attendant replied "Slow. I think we're good." THAT was my conformation! I have no debilitating effects from my stroke. Praise God!
People don't realize how God will preform miracles, if you ask. I have seen many in my life. Every day God is doing things for you and me. Praise his mighty power.
As a boy, I deeply feared death. Then I trusted Christ as my Savior and Lord at age 16. I no longer fear death. Jesus conquered death and I have peace.
@@jaymercha3859 well then imagine how much safer you would feel if you could be assured of eternal life rather than having to toy with the possibility of annihilation. That assurance is only through Christ.

You said the greatest quote, exactly what I would say and how I feel. People had respect for each other even if they didn’t agree. Today Billy would be canceled and not allowed on the Tonight Show, “He’s evil he doesn’t agree being gay is alright” no room for debate or open talk anymore
@@michaeljames4057 Ikr. Today's "talk" shows have them all yelling at each other all at once like a bunch of wild animals fighting for a scrap of meat. Me Monsters the great comedian Brian Regan calls them.
I was born in 1958 and my dad worked for Delta so we flew alot. My mother told me one time while standing to get off the plane in New Orleans which is where we lived, she noticed a very tall man with the bluest eyes she had ever seen standing behind us staring down at me. She realized it was Billy Graham and said hello to him. He put his hand on my head and said a prayer over me right there on the plane standing in the aisle waiting to get off. I would love to know what he prayed but that was between him and God, but I sure do appreciate doing it.
So here’s a story I got from another fellow RUclips commenter, I’m not going to disclose their name, but I thought it might give a different perspective: “When I was a young boy, Billy Graham had a religious advice column. He gave a woman a piece of advice that I will Never forgive him for. It was from a woman whose husband regularly beat her. He had been beating her for decades, and she was at the end of her rope. She said that she didn't know how she could go on living, that she had lost hope of her husband being less violent towards her, and that she had prayed for years without any help from God. She asked Billy Graham what she should do. Did Billy Graham tell her to go to the police? Did he suggest she go to a woman's shelter? No. He told her that she should endure, and continue to pray for her husband, as a supportive Christian wife should. That was his advice to this poor Christian who made the mistake of writing to him. I always wished that I could have somehow written to her and told her not to listen to this idiot's advice, and to escape immediately. I'm sure she continued to make a fine punching bag for her husband, until she died of abuse or until he died, forever unpunished. Without God ever intervening to help her. Or Billy Graham convincing her to escape her lifelong hell. That is how Billy Graham deserves to be remembered. With utter contempt at his inhuman hypocrisy.”
One of the things that doesn't get recognized enough about Rev Billy Graham is his intellect. He was not only a good man and a devout follower of Christ, in my mind, but also a person of high intelligence. Listing to him speak is like reading a book filled with wisdom.
@@sherrykendrick1765 He pushed for war in Korea and Vietnam, and then wanted them to be escalated. He had the ear of powerful people, including presidents, to make that happen. Billy was a ruthless Machiavellian. A little more terrible than some people.
THIS is how a man of God should represent himself and God in an interview...Billy Graham spread the gospel to as many as he could...he didn't sugarcoat anything, he just spoke God's word, directly...
What I most appreciate about Billy Graham is when he talks, teaches and lives - He bases it always on the "What The Bible says." Not what Billy thinks or feels about a subject - But what God has revealed in the Bible. He is missed in this world.
Not to diminish from this amazing man's witness but I personally have not found a lot of information about what would be expected of us in heaven besides worship. Visiting other planets and working did not show up but hey with a lack of info we can all speculate.
@@realitywave What was he worth? . . . .I will cut to the chase. $25 million net worth when he passed away. Really? That is what you're ranting about? Yea I know most people don't have $25 million worth of assets when they die but honestly, for a guy who has been in the public eye for 75 years, that's reasonable. Get off of your soap box and move on to something more legit. This issue is not worth your steam.

This was an awesome interview. I miss good old fashioned respect and kindness. Seems like it's a lost art. I pray for more leaders like Billy Graham. He was truly a man of God!
Billy never said to repent Billy never said you must be born again.. Billy’s sinners prayer gave comfort to people but not salvation You can’t say a prayer like that But live a wicked life afterward Your not saved by saving his sinners prayer… A broken and contrite heart I will not despise says the LORD I will give you a heart of flesh and remove the heart of stone says the lord!!!! Stop worship billy Worship and praise and give honor to Almighty GOD thru hid Sid son the savior Jesus Christ! You people that praise billy are either lazy/stupid/blind etc Christ said NOTHING hidden will remain a secret! Billy was wicked…why won’t you see it? Maybe because your lazy/ And love Billy’s speeches But hate Jesus Christ because your not truly born again! Please save your DONT judge others speeches… we are to righteously judge others that are deceived/deceivers! If two walk blind will they not both fall in a ditch?
2024 here im watching this video for the first time, wow 👌 👏 for sure Billy Graham was a great Man of God and the best preacher of the 20th century ❤❤❤
I'm surprised Johnny would even give him a chance to be on his show. I've not yet made up my mind if Billy Graham was just a con artist making money, or if he really believed that nonsense.
When we lost him on earth..we lost a lot of morality in America. His son, Franklin and his ministry, Samaritan's Purse, does SO MUCH in America and around the world to help during crisis and you NEVER, NEVER heard about his work on liberal news.
I give Johnny a lot of credit for this show, having Billy Graham on and asking great questions and taking such an intense interest in spirituality. I think it helped him and hopefully he got saved.
ALL are ultimately 'saved'....God will ultimately redeem ALL persons ever born, either in this life, or the next.....e.g. 1 Corinthians 15:22 ►For as in Adam ALL die, so in Christ ALL will be made alive

(para). Everyone will not go to Heaven to be with Christ, God, and the Holy Spirit. There will be many, maybe even most, that will NEVER see the gates of heaven. That is the FACTS. A more endepth study of the Bible would be in order for you. Your theological understanding has erred.
@@TheBlueCream ..........The wages of sin may be death but the gift of God is eternal life to all who trust in His substitutionary death and glorious resurrection. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. His life, imputed within, is one of the many things that takes place in the life of a Christian the moment he trusts in Christ as Saviour. He is taken out of Adam and placed IN Christ. What an incredible contrast there is between the first earthly man - Adam and the second heavenly Man - the Lord Jesus Christ. All that are born IN Adam are dead in their trespasses and sin, estranged from God and without hope in the world. But in His grace God sent His only begotten Son as the one and only sin-substitute for the entire race of fallen humanity. Those who believe in Him are redeemed, they are not condemned and are eternally positioned in Christ - but those who do NOT believe in the only begotten Son of the Father, are condemned already. .......................🏴
I was really moved that I cried when I saw the big crowd from Seoul, Korea waving their goodbyes to Billy Graham and his wife. That was an amazing sight.

Fabulous interview! No one talked over anyone. Such great etiquette and professionalism. I miss Johnny on Late Night Television. He was truly a gentleman and so was Dr Graham.
Yes sir I agree. Johnny is a class guy . So dapper and a true gentleman,the man was Presidential in style and fashion.Always seemed to have poise and humor for the awkward moment.Todays hosts would instantly resort to vulgarity to get through those moments.Love him and miss him. No disrespect to the present late night shows but Johnny's in a class all by himself.
Reminds me of seeing Kanye West talking to Jimmy Kimmel around the time he released his Jesus Is King album. Obviously they have very different styles, but the boldness is similar.
Amazing how even Johnny didn't want to cut to commercials..and seemed interested in giving Billy all the time he could squeeze out of the clock..today they would not even recognize this man even existed.
Carson was a major financial supporter over the years of the James Randi Educational Foundation and regularly featured skeptic James Randi, who exposed several televangelists on the show. Randi treasures a letter from Carson in which he quoted the philosopher Francis Bacon's admonition that "a credulous man is a deceiver." Quiet and reclusive in his private life, he preferred to avoid public events and interviews but occasionally engaged in them. "In my living room I would argue for liberalization of abortion laws, divorce laws, and there are times when I would like to express a view on the air. I would love to have taken on Billy Graham. But I'm on TV five nights a week; I have nothing to gain by it and everything to lose." (Life magazine, Jan. 23, 1970.)

I so regret not discovering Billy Graham earlier. I'm 25 now, I take this mans words seriously now more than ever; still wish he was around though. God Bless Him!
I had the pleasure of seeing him in 2002 at Texas Stadium ( former home of the Cowboys) although I’m not a deeply religious person I’ll admit I was deeply moved by his very simple message of hope and salvation.

Everyone shows Billy Graham much respect , today it would be different , but back then was a bit or alot more respect than now , even with Covid people do not learn , crime is way high , guns are everywhere , religion is so divided , more cults

Since I've committed my will to God I find those feelings of guilt and shame and hate and jealousy and fear have diminished greatly! There's power in the blood spilled on the cross of Jesus that is done for the glory of the One Living God! I pray you find the Peace and Mercy and Love of God!
The fact this was allowed on television shows how much times have changed for the worse. Johnny was honest, asked questions and allowed to respond. Could you imagine if it was Jimmy Fallon etc.?
Jimmy Fallon Jay Leno and score of others - late-night talk-shows, format is entertainment and more-or-less comedic - Johnny Carson middle-of-the-road - but we remember people like Charlie Rose, Tom Snyder, and William Buckley, whose specialty was serious and intelligent conversation
Johnny Carson will never be topped. Not even close, either... This was a very illuminating interview into who Billy Graham was. Intelligent, wise, gracious, witty... God used that man in many ways.

Billy Graham on the most watched late night show in America in 1973. You would never see such a balanced, calm interview now. The video of the message brought in Korea is deeply moving. Anyone with half a heart will choke back tears. So many people hungry to hear a clear, unfiltered, undiluted message of love. Nobody has time for that in America anymore. The fact that Johnny gives Billy a moment to calmly explain the gospel, heaven and even hell without any serious interruption right there on the show tells all. Factually, 99% of church-goers are more or less just like Billy Graham - relatively calm, patient and seeking to bring a message of hope. But look as we may, we will not find such a fairly-broadcasted presentation of the Judeo-Christian worldview in our day, where Christians are depicted as axe-murderers. Times have truly changed. And to think this was only just in 1973.
I loved that he didn’t “preach” to us. But explained. And had such a fun humor as well. And isn’t about asking for money or saying how horrible we are cuz he even continuously called himself a sinner
Sharing what one believes and consistently living it is a greater testimony than any yelling, screaming, trying to induce fear etc in other people. Billy Graham did this.
Repent and believe the gospel narrow is the way to eternal life, those that have ears let them hear, today is the day of salvation. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
A Christian is not a continuous sinner. That’s like saying “a lifeguard saved me from drowning, and even though, i am out of the water, I am still drowning.”
@@moodymoosecannon4986 He was a Machiavellian disguised as a man of God who had the ear of the powerful because he shamelessly stroked their egos, and then whispered some poison in their ears. Only President Truman saw right through Billy and called him a "counterfeit."
So glad I took the time to watch this interview in its entirety. As he spoke of people in crowds still suffering from "cosmic loneliness," it made me wonder what Billy Graham thought of social media before his death 4 years ago. Social media has an deceptive ability to distract us endlessly so many don't even recognize just how truly lonely and spiritually bankrupt we truly are. His message of the light of the gospel is still very much needed today! R.I.P., man of God (1918-2018).
I heard the 1900's (the 20th century) began the end of the last days. Because of the two world wars and the great increases of technology. Now the technological advances are going faster than ever. Without this incredible technology, it's doubtful an all encompassing one world system could be implemented.
What? A talk show, with a preacher on as a guest?? And they were allowed to talk freely about Jesus?? And preacher was allowed to inform us how we could be saved....what??
@@Jsteelies because of a thing called "Politics" getting involved and networks finding people who disrespect freedom of religion... Johnny Carson (and the living Jay Leno!) was a man of pure class and knew what was relevant to his audience, something sadly that today's hosts, network executives and politicians will never understand to a full extent.
@naaim sharif You are wrong on this point: Christianity is not the White man's religion. Christianity was in Africa long before the White man came along.
A million people came to see Billy Graham ! I remember him very well he was such an amazing man and servant of the lord ..Millions were saved because of this great man .. God Bless .
I am a Christian.Was saved when I was 13yo, But I don't believe you can play golf in heaven and go to any planet you want and stuff like that. I don't know all that we can and will do there, but I know the main thing will be praising and worshiping God. And I don't see how you can't understand the KJV as it is written in English. We shouldn't praise men like some people do.
"never be a more truer preacher"?? Certainly in my life time I have seen "true" men in Christ who live and preach and teach the gospel of GOD. Be careful with "never"❤
I've never seen Johnny show such nerves and reverence towards anyone he had on his show before. Carson will always be the best there ever was behind that desk.
The early 70’s were not exactly a time of innocence, but seeing this on a major network’s most popular show makes it feel that way in comparison to where we are now. The United States is badly in need of a spiritual revival. May God show mercy on us, though we don’t deserve it, and grant our country repentance, contrition and humility. Please God, without You we perish.
As soon as Billy came in, I started grinning from ear to ear. He's has a beautifully contagious personality. And I definitely feel that is the Holy Spirit that is with him. ❤️✝️🙏🏼
I remember going to the Indy 500 and Rev. Graham gave the pre-race invocation. 400,000 people there and you could've heard a mouse squeak while he was talking. Very powerful and influential yet very humble and down-to-earth man. I loved it!
Depends on what you mean by evangelical Saying evangelical is almost like saying fifty shades of grey In 1973 evangelical was almost defined by Billy Graham himself Today there are at least 100 ways to be evangelical So if today we are confused we should probably try to see how things have changed But hey No matter what things change
So nice to see the respect Johnny has for Rev.Graham. Can you even imagine a Stephen Colbert or Jimmy Kimmel interviewing a man of Billy Grahams stature without constantly injecting their snark into it?
I would not watch Colbert or Kimmel because they do not have an ounce of sense about anything they are filling thier pockets on bad news that they spread ! I hope they all get a little shot of humility .
Colbert is a devout Christian, he would probably be snarky, but I'm sure that he would be respectful about it. You can have humor during serious conversation.
Colbert and Kimball are complete Satanist evil people they have no idea about truth they're bot and paid for they're not about any accountability any responsibility they are just scumbags

Loved seeing this! There will never be another Billy Graham on Johnny Carson - both great in their own special way. I haven't seen Late Night talk shows in years - nothing nowadays can come close to the humor and enjoyment of Johnny Carson.
Ah the days when we could speak our honest thoughts, feelings, and opinions; on TV and in public, without being cancelled and accused of being bad! I truly miss these times!

I am always moved by Billy's preaching. When I met his wife, Ruth, back in 1977 in front of her home it was a great moment for me and my friend Peggy. We were working at Ridgecrest Baptist Convention Center and decided to drive up to Montreat, NC to see their home. We were parked outside the big wooden gate and Ruth drove up in a blue Mercedes convertible. She had beautiful silver white hair and she said hello. I introduced myself and Peggy and told her we were working at Ridgecrest and she asked us to pray for Billy. We said we would and we did. Then she drove into the gate of their home. Great moment in time!
I saw this episode live. Absolutely the most respectful I have ever seen Johnny. Dr. Graham was simply the most intelligent, interesting man I'd ever heard speak.
Billy Graham was definitely God sent.
He 2 was a mentally disturbed Shyster praying on USA Rednecks and Hillbillies mainly

Thank you FATHER GOD, for sending Dr. Billy Graham, in my generation, to preach the gospel of JESUS CHRIST, your only son, to a dying world.
Such a beautiful person sent by God! Thank You God In Jesus Name. Amen!
Amen! He was here to teach the word of God& to teach the world how important it is to be born again,also the importance of prayer,worship& praise; to establish& keep a close relationship with God. There will never be another man like him to have such a powerful influence on the world.

And without condescension.

RIP Billy Graham, one of the few genuine men of God.
@@Tiffany4Jesus1 i’ve always stayed away from evangelist who were multimillionaires. Because of Jesus’s teaching. But I always liked Billy Graham very much. However, recently I found out he was worth $25 million. I’m not sure what to think of it.
We all know that Jesus said “it is easier for a camel to cross through the eye of a needle than it is for a rich man to make it to heaven“.
I trust Billy and Charles Stanley wholeheartedly. I am so grateful their teachings are still on youtube
Billy Graham is a man of God. He surrender his life to God at a young age until his last breath. R.I.P in heaven. God welcome you in heaven with an open arms and said well done my true follower and faithful servant.🙏❤️
@@joebiggs4387Billy was truly one of the greatest men of God. Through one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit, some people, including me, are able to DISCERN that (1 Corinthians 12:7-10)
Jesus Christ does not dispute being rich. In the verse you are referencing I believe Jesus meant that it is hard for most rich people to enter the kingdom of God as most idolize their worldly richness thereby struggling to prioritize, love, honor and serve God wholeheartedly. I believe He meant that rich people set their identity anf hearts on their worldly richness instead of striving to have a personal relationship with God as we ought to.
God says we should take care of the needs of the poor at various levels. And we won't be able to do that in lack.
In conclusion. I believe God can bless you financially. However, your finances ought not be your God. When you prioritize your call. God will instruct you on how to be a blessing to others with your finances. All for His Glory. 🙏🏽
I hope this changes your perspective on being rich. Better yet. Inquire with the Lord on the matter. I know for a fact that God through His Holy Holy will give you a response when you seek Him wholeheartedly on the matter

I agree and that’s because the world has lost God. They have let evil overcome…in the end God always wins.
Interesting how life has changed slowly year by year and when you compare it to back then - an enormous change. The devil sure does his work well.
I remember as a 13 year old in '67 watching his summer crusades. Then one evening when he gave an invitation to accept Jesus - I did. From that point on, I can see his hand on me even when I suffered a stroke just as I returned stateside from serving in Iraq with the Army. As I laid in the ambulance, I asked God what could I learn from this experience to help the next guy. I heard "Nothing more will happen to you." Then the driver asked my attendant "Slow or fast?" The attendant replied "Slow. I think we're good." THAT was my conformation! I have no debilitating effects from my stroke. Praise God!

I was born in 1958 and my dad worked for Delta so we flew alot. My mother told me one time while standing to get off the plane in New Orleans which is where we lived, she noticed a very tall man with the bluest eyes she had ever seen standing behind us staring down at me. She realized it was Billy Graham and said hello to him. He put his hand on my head and said a prayer over me right there on the plane standing in the aisle waiting to get off. I would love to know what he prayed but that was between him and God, but I sure do appreciate doing it.
I was also born in 1958. God bless you 🙏
So here’s a story I got from another fellow RUclips commenter, I’m not going to disclose their name, but I thought it might give a different perspective:
“When I was a young boy, Billy Graham had a
religious advice column. He gave a woman a piece of advice that I will Never forgive him for.
It was from a woman whose husband regularly beat her. He had been beating her for decades, and she was at the end of her rope.
She said that she didn't know how she could go on living, that she had lost hope of her husband being less violent towards her, and that she had prayed for years without any help from God.
She asked Billy Graham what she should do.
Did Billy Graham tell her to go to the police? Did he suggest she go to a woman's shelter?
No. He told her that she should endure, and
continue to pray for her husband, as a supportive
Christian wife should.
That was his advice to this poor Christian who made the mistake of writing to him.
I always wished that I could have somehow written to her and told her not to listen to this idiot's advice, and to escape immediately.
I'm sure she continued to make a fine punching bag for her husband, until she died of abuse or until he died, forever unpunished.
Without God ever intervening to help her. Or Billy
Graham convincing her to escape her lifelong hell.
That is how Billy Graham deserves to be remembered. With utter contempt at his inhuman
hypocrisy.”

THIS is how a man of God should represent himself and God in an interview...Billy Graham spread the gospel to as many as he could...he didn't sugarcoat anything, he just spoke God's word, directly...
What I most appreciate about Billy Graham is when he talks, teaches and lives - He bases it always on the "What The Bible says." Not what Billy thinks or feels about a subject - But what God has revealed in the Bible. He is missed in this world.
Not to diminish from this amazing man's witness but I personally have not found a lot of information about what would be expected of us in heaven besides worship. Visiting other planets and working did not show up but hey with a lack of info we can all speculate.

Everyone will not go to Heaven to be with Christ, God, and the Holy Spirit.
There will be many, maybe even most, that will NEVER see the gates of heaven. That is the FACTS. A more endepth study of the Bible would be in order for you. Your theological understanding has erred.
@@TheBlueCream ..........The wages of sin may be death but the gift of God is eternal life to all who trust in His substitutionary death and glorious resurrection. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. His life, imputed within, is one of the many things that takes place in the life of a Christian the moment he trusts in Christ as Saviour. He is taken out of Adam and placed IN Christ. What an incredible contrast there is between the first earthly man - Adam and the second heavenly Man - the Lord Jesus Christ.
All that are born IN Adam are dead in their trespasses and sin, estranged from God and without hope in the world. But in His grace God sent His only begotten Son as the one and only sin-substitute for the entire race of fallen humanity. Those who believe in Him are redeemed, they are not condemned and are eternally positioned in Christ - but those who do NOT believe in the only begotten Son of the Father, are condemned already. .......................🏴

I don't think I ever saw Billy Graham lose his composure.
Carson was a major financial supporter over the years of the James Randi Educational Foundation and regularly featured skeptic James Randi, who exposed several televangelists on the show. Randi treasures a letter from Carson in which he quoted the philosopher Francis Bacon's admonition that "a credulous man is a deceiver." Quiet and reclusive in his private life, he preferred to avoid public events and interviews but occasionally engaged in them. "In my living room I would argue for liberalization of abortion laws, divorce laws, and there are times when I would like to express a view on the air. I would love to have taken on Billy Graham. But I'm on TV five nights a week; I have nothing to gain by it and everything to lose." (Life magazine, Jan. 23, 1970.)

I can't imagine anyone on late night wanting Billy Graham as guest. They only want the crazies, not a class act like Rev Graham.
Fallon is an entertainer.
@@sandrabraswell6352 it about entertainment and money
Johnny Carson will never be topped. Not even close, either...
This was a very illuminating interview into who Billy Graham was. Intelligent, wise, gracious, witty... God used that man in many ways.
I’m publishing a weekly RUclips video on episodes from the life of Don Bosco, entitled ST JOHN BOSCO by JOE ZAMMIT. In this series I’m narrating events and miracles from the splendid life of Don Bosco. St John Bosco used to perform a miracle almost every day, through the intercession of Mary Help of Christians. From the lives of saints we can learn how to love God more and draw closer to him. Thank you
Billy Graham on the most watched late night show in America in 1973.
You would never see such a balanced, calm interview now.
The video of the message brought in Korea is deeply moving.
Anyone with half a heart will choke back tears.
So many people hungry to hear a clear, unfiltered, undiluted message of love.
Nobody has time for that in America anymore.
The fact that Johnny gives Billy a moment to calmly explain the gospel, heaven and even hell without any serious interruption right there on the show tells all.
Factually, 99% of church-goers are more or less just like Billy Graham - relatively calm, patient and seeking to bring a message of hope.
But look as we may, we will not find such a fairly-broadcasted presentation of the Judeo-Christian worldview in our day, where Christians are depicted as axe-murderers.
Times have truly changed. And to think this was only just in 1973.
I find it amazing how timeless the things are that Billy Graham says.
The truth has never changed from the dawn of time.
I was just thinking the same thing. Relevant then, relevant now. Great interview!
God is the same yesterday, today and forever...Hebrews 13:8 ✝️
He spoke God’s message and God‘s message is timeless.
Considering he was a Mason. R u going to listen to anything he says?
My parents loved him growing up. I can see why billy graham was so loved. He was so down to earth and relatable
Great historian and quote taker of philosphers, scientist and writers and sense of humor too.
His faith and mission were never sullied by controversy or scandal. He was truly a man of God, he brought many into the fold.
@@michaelfoxbrass With the Internet influxed in 2000, that's it. There will be no excuses for any come the return of Christ.
He was a bigot and a grifter.
ruclips.net/video/BFBr8gmd66w/видео.html
I loved that he didn’t “preach” to us. But explained. And had such a fun humor as well. And isn’t about asking for money or saying how horrible we are cuz he even continuously called himself a sinner
And his spiritual responses were all based on the Bible, which is the way it should be done.
Sharing what one believes and consistently living it is a greater testimony than any yelling, screaming, trying to induce fear etc in other people. Billy Graham did this.
Repent and believe the gospel narrow is the way to eternal life, those that have ears let them hear, today is the day of salvation. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ.
A Christian is not a continuous sinner. That’s like saying “a lifeguard saved me from drowning, and even though, i am out of the water, I am still drowning.”
@@Spokenwisdom1 I’m sorry just to see I have this right. You have not sinned at all since your salvation?
Johnny was a class act ! Billy Graham one of a kind!!!
This is the highest example of integrity. You will never witness this level of pure humility in an interview in today’s world.
He has absolutely stood by his beliefs throughout his life. Much respect to him. Thanks to Johnny Carson for this clip.
Actually, he was more flawed than some. Do as I say, not as I do. Typical Evangelical.
@@dan_hitchman007 what are you referring to?
@@moodymoosecannon4986 He was a Machiavellian disguised as a man of God who had the ear of the powerful because he shamelessly stroked their egos, and then whispered some poison in their ears. Only President Truman saw right through Billy and called him a "counterfeit."
@@dan_hitchman007 what a miserable person you are
@@bobsheppard8773 No, I just don't lionize people who don't deserve the praise.
I could listen to Billy Graham all day. Such a very biblical man of God who loved and served God whole heartedly. RIP Sir Billy Graham ❤️🙏🙏
So glad I took the time to watch this interview in its entirety. As he spoke of people in crowds still suffering from "cosmic loneliness," it made me wonder what Billy Graham thought of social media before his death 4 years ago. Social media has an deceptive ability to distract us endlessly so many don't even recognize just how truly lonely and spiritually bankrupt we truly are. His message of the light of the gospel is still very much needed today! R.I.P., man of God (1918-2018).
Absolutely!
Very well put , agreed !
Social media is digital cocaine. People don't see it, but it's a huge addiction ruining lives.
People are thirsting for Truth then and now!
And instead of truth they get christianity
@@iamsteveshoe Christianity is truth.
@@louislaguardia3190 no it's not
@@iamsteveshoe Nah, they get Stephen bent over by Lucifer and calling for God🤣...😉
@@BryceDAnderson1952 Okay, okay - it's Baney!..."I Love you, You love me" 🤣
This is great. An evangelist using the Tonight show to spread the gospel.
Sadly, I don’t see something like this ever taking place again. Jesus is hated even more today
@@JayyVee41 wouldn't happen today, if Jesus was quoted on a late show it would be deemed as politically incorrect
@@hellasrockriffs6347 yep
I heard the 1900's (the 20th century) began the end of the last days. Because of the two world wars and the great increases of technology. Now the technological advances are going faster than ever. Without this incredible technology, it's doubtful an all encompassing one world system could be implemented.
@@realitywave
Jesus said no one knows when the end will be. So i don't agree.
What? A talk show, with a preacher on as a guest?? And they were allowed to talk freely about Jesus?? And preacher was allowed to inform us how we could be saved....what??
I wonder what happened or why that is? I don't disagree with you. Just curious your opinion
@@Jsteelies because of a thing called "Politics" getting involved and networks finding people who disrespect freedom of religion... Johnny Carson (and the living Jay Leno!) was a man of pure class and knew what was relevant to his audience, something sadly that today's hosts, network executives and politicians will never understand to a full extent.
you sound like a fool atheist
@@Jsteelies The haters of God have bullied believers into scared submission.
@naaim sharif You are wrong on this point: Christianity is not the White man's religion. Christianity was in Africa long before the White man came along.
A million people came to see Billy Graham ! I remember him very well he was such an amazing man and servant of the lord ..Millions were saved because of this great man .. God Bless .
This is an awesome clip. I highly doubt any late show hosts would have a pastor similar to Billy Graham on their show...
There are no pastors similar to Graham!! Never has been, never will be!!
Nope. I saw that O'steen on Larry King and couldnt even answer a PC question.
They'd have to find one first
I wonder what happened or why that is? I don't disagree with you. Just curious your opinion
@@fl3082 Yep. And I doubt Jesus RETURN will give that platform to Ferguson, Kimmel or that other bonehead.
This is very powerful and humbling.
I miss him so much. He was comforting. A absolute National treasure.
There will never be a more truer preacher than Billy Graham. He is with GOD at this moment. I believe exactly what he said about heaven.😊
I am a Christian.Was saved when I was 13yo, But I don't believe you can play golf in heaven and go to any planet you want and stuff like that. I don't know all that we can and will do there, but I know the main thing will be praising and worshiping God. And I don't see how you can't understand the KJV as it is written in English. We shouldn't praise men like some people do.
"never be a more truer preacher"?? Certainly in my life time I have seen "true" men in Christ who live and preach and teach the gospel of GOD. Be careful with "never"❤
I've never seen Johnny show such nerves and reverence towards anyone he had on his show before. Carson will always be the best there ever was behind that desk.
Yes you right......how are you doing?
So true.
Hello how're you doing today and the weather over there..?
Johnny was the one and only and so was Rev. Graham!
The early 70’s were not exactly a time of innocence, but seeing this on a major network’s most popular show makes it feel that way in comparison to where we are now. The United States is badly in need of a spiritual revival. May God show mercy on us, though we don’t deserve it, and grant our country repentance, contrition and humility. Please God, without You we perish.
Amazing man. He touched more people in this world than anyone I know. Hope the youth find him and learn.
As soon as Billy came in, I started grinning from ear to ear. He's has a beautifully contagious personality. And I definitely feel that is the Holy Spirit that is with him. ❤️✝️🙏🏼
I remember going to the Indy 500 and Rev. Graham gave the pre-race invocation. 400,000 people there and you could've heard a mouse squeak while he was talking. Very powerful and influential yet very humble and down-to-earth man. I loved it!
Well said
Mr Graham doesn't sugar coat about sinning, Jesus and his teachings he stood his ground compared to many evangelicals now.
Depends on what you mean by evangelical
Saying evangelical is almost like saying fifty shades of grey
In 1973 evangelical was almost defined by Billy Graham himself
Today there are at least 100 ways to be evangelical
So if today we are confused we should probably try to see how things have changed
But hey
No matter what things change
@@theprinceofdarkness4679
One thing that never changes
Is The Word Of God The Father.
@@artvallejos1460 okay
Unlike his moron son, Billy was a Democrat
@@jstravelers4094 You are obviously clueless!
This Ladies and Gentlemen is what life is all about...Salvation is free to anyone who accepts it thru the blood of Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen!
Amen
Yes, accepts by believing in the Lord Jesus Christ John 1:12, 3:16
Amen! Thank God for that!
That's true the simplicity of the gospel
So nice to see the respect Johnny has for Rev.Graham. Can you even imagine a Stephen Colbert or Jimmy Kimmel interviewing a man of Billy Grahams stature without constantly injecting their snark into it?
I would not watch Colbert or Kimmel because they do not have an ounce of sense about anything they are filling thier pockets on bad news that they spread ! I hope they all get a little shot of humility .
I hear that Fox News's Greg Gutfeld is killing them in the ratings!
Colbert is a devout Christian, he would probably be snarky, but I'm sure that he would be respectful about it. You can have humor during serious conversation.
Colbert and Kimball are complete Satanist evil people they have no idea about truth they're bot and paid for they're not about any accountability any responsibility they are just scumbags
Nowadays, late night talk show hosts are vile, not entertaining or funny, and way too woke! 🥱
Billy Graham, a well-known great man of God, who preached the gospel to everyone to millions praise God❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just amazing!! The interview, the sincerity of Johnny's questions and Graham's answers. I loved it.

It's Awesome to see two Heavyweights / Giants of their fields talking one on one!!! I sincerely miss both of these Gentlemen...
Carson only had 'mortal' weight...Billie had 'immortal' weight. But Graham and God is not throwing that as we are.
Graham should have raised his kid better, if he’s such a great moral person...kids learn their behaviors mostly from parents, and what they don’t learn from them should be controlled better if the parent is any good!
Graham is just a sales guy, selling what he can to anyone he can.

@@montedyoung3247 The role character of Satan was already taken Monte (Jesus of Nazareth, Greates Story Ever Told, Passion of the Christ). Get a new agent!
The ease with which Graham shared the Gospel was truly inspiring. As believers we are all evangelists and should emulate this example.
That is supposed to be our mission on Earth.
What an interview. Glory to God.
A loneliness for GOD. I had never thought of it that way. Beautifully stated. He affected many people. A good man.
@@realitywave your hatred in a man you have never met is disgusting and disturbing . You do not know the heart of this man of God and i’m sorry you let the devil harden your heart and cover your ears and close your eyes and let your tongue speak death among another man whom God has used to reach millions . You are no better . This man of God is no better than you . You are no better than Him . I hope you find the peace you have been searching for by letting your rage and anger for this man whom you have never met consume you . You will not find peace in hatred brother.
@@realitywave 1 John 2:11 is all I will reply to you.
@@realitywave I am sorry you allowed this fallen world to turn your back against God. He has not forgotten about you though. But brother I have seen you spam these comments under other people's shout of gratitude for this vessel of God. So yes, anger, rage, and hatred has consumed you and has left you blind. The scripture I provided has not been proven wrong but proven right by your reply for it says "But anyone who hates a fellow believer is still living and walking in darkness. Such a person does not know the way to go, having been blinded by the darkness." Thank you for providing more evidence into why the Bible is the truth. God bless you, I hope you give God a second chance though brother, clear out the darkness from your eyes and allow God to tender your heart. No man should have this much hatred for another man.
@@realitywave Is it I the fool who believes that this universe was not created by nothing into something ? That the circle of life was unintentional by a big bang in the universe ? is it i who believes not that my great great great grandfather was a chimpanzee? is it i who believes that the human body functioning and any living thing that has a functioning in a way where it was fearfully and patiently created by a creator ? is it i who believes that a building must have a builder ? is it i who believes that a book must have an author ? I am the fool ? The trees to the grass to the sky to the water to the animals to the dirt and the flowers and the insects and the birds into the whales and the sharks and the fish to the ants . The evidence is all around brother . Is it i the foolish one for fearing the Lord ? or is it you who simply does not believe in an author .
What an amazing interview. May God continue to bless the message of such a faithful evangelist.
Very wonderful interview. Rev. Billy was so nice and told it the way it is. Johnny was so respectful and listened earnestly too. Great to watch in 2022.
I commented on this 2 years ago I didn't realize I haven't even seen it until I read my comment, but what I really want to say is we need to pray for our country for the Salvation of America❤❤❤
Loved seeing this! There will never be another Billy Graham on Johnny Carson - both great in their own special way. I haven't seen Late Night talk shows in years - nothing nowadays can come close to the humor and enjoyment of Johnny Carson.
Hello Jan, how are you doing?
They both had respect to listen to each other.
Their will never be another Billy Graham all praise be the Lord jesus Christ
Ah the days when we could speak our honest thoughts, feelings, and opinions; on TV and in public, without being cancelled and accused of being bad! I truly miss these times!
Amen
Amen

Actually these were the times when only you could speak out.
Someone who is agnostic or atheist could never have spoken out their true beliefs during this time.

I am always moved by
Billy's preaching. When I met his wife, Ruth, back in 1977 in front of her home it was a great moment for me and my friend Peggy. We were working at Ridgecrest Baptist Convention Center and decided to drive up to Montreat, NC to see their home. We were parked outside the big wooden gate and Ruth drove up in a blue Mercedes convertible. She had beautiful silver white hair and she said hello. I introduced myself and Peggy and told her we were working at Ridgecrest and she asked us to pray for Billy. We said we would and we did.
Then she drove into the gate of their home. Great moment in time!
Miss and love Billy Graham, glad we have lots of footage of his crusades over the years!
Amen ❤️
Amen
Hello how're you doing today and the weather over there..?
We could never have something like this in any late night talk show.
Unfortunately.
If enough of us stand United for it, we could effect great change
You are so right, unless we see a major change in our country and world we are in trouble unless christ returns.
I saw this episode live. Absolutely the most respectful I have ever seen Johnny. Dr. Graham was simply the most intelligent, interesting man I'd ever heard speak.
That is so great that you were blessed to be there!
@@carolbell8008 A brief moment in my life I'll never forget.
