Billy Graham on the Atonement
Billy Graham writes: “When Jesus Christ was on the cross, His blood draining the life from His body, He knew what it was like to be alone, questioning God when He was wracked with pain. But His pain was the suffering of the sins of the ages, the greatest darkness of the soul ever known to man. Why did Jesus suffer? For you. For me. That we might have life eternal and His peace in the midst of storms.” (The Enduring Classics of Billy Graham, Hope For the Troubled Heart, Why Jesus Suffered, p.42, emphasis mine)
Billy Graham writes: “In all of life there is nothing more wonderful than discovering peace with God. Step one to this discovery is realizing God’s plan--peace and life. God loves you and wants you to experience peace and life--abundant and eternal.” (The Enduring Classics of Billy Graham: The Secret of Happiness, Happiness Through Peacemaking, p.125, emphasis mine)
