Do you know what the "Lausanne Covenant" is? Billy Graham does.
<snip>
The Lausanne Covenant is the belief statement of an international umbrella mission organization started by Billy Graham in 1974.

The Lausanne Movement refers to the ONGOING structure of the Lausanne Committee for World Evangelization (LCWE) which works to streamline and organize worldwide proselytizing of Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, and "Nominal Christians" which they state are the "approximately one billion people classified as Christians who "still need to be evangelized" and are described as "found extensively among Protestants, Orthodox, and Roman Catholics."

In other words, the National Day of Prayer Task Force is limited to leadership that support the goal of ultimately ending all other faiths and belief systems that fall outside of the Lausanne Covenant.
<snip>
A stated mission of the National Day of Prayer Task Force is to "foster unity in the Christian church" which sounds nice until you realize this means standardizing a one size fits all belief system with the size being determined by the Lausanne Covenant.

The task force goals also include "mobilizing the Christian community to intercede for America and its leadership in the seven centers of power: Government, Military, Media, Business, Education, Church and Family." This list is exactly the same as the seven mountains campaign of Wagner's New Apostolic Reformation, except that arts and entertainment are folded into media, and the military is added as the seventh center of power.

Billy Graham isn't just some harmless white-haired preacher who is full of wisdom and glory. He is behind this appalling group and its offshoots who want only the Christian religion to survive. Graham is its genial, "harmless" face.

NO President should have anything to do with him. He is as radical as they come.

If you read the article and others like it, you will find a lot of familiar names such as Rick Warren.
