That name in- spires for many a vision of one of those renowned fire and brim- stone evangelists of another day, one of those legendary men of the soap-box who were able to work themselves and their audiences into a frenzy, and by so doing ac- complish the work they set out to. Graham, however, doesn't fit into this picture at al. Certainly he gesticulates amply. At times while he was in New York's Madison Square Garden, he almost-shouted. His voice was forceful, on the excited side of rhetorical, ..but never frenzied. There were never uncontrolled -shouts to heaven. Instead he delivers with a voice. moderated by deep sincerity, a force carefully controlled. And yet Billy Graham - this is no news - is successful. Madi- son Square Garden was packed for his appearance, fuller than it has been for the Rangers in a hockey game or the Knicks in a basket- ball contest, fuller than it has been in recent years for Ringling Brothers, Barnum and Bailey Cir- cus. Every seat in the house was taken and people were standing, too! If-Graham used mob psychol- ogy, as many critics of evangelists maintain, it is of a rare and subtle kind. HE WAS effective. That night about 1500 people decided, at least tentatively, to make the "De- cision for Christ." They came from everywhere in the Garden- from the ground floor to the third balcony. Young and old, crippled and strong, white and colored and or- iental, poor, middle class and ap- parently wealthy walked across the floor of the hall to the edge of Billy Graham's pulpit. And they made the walk despite the 20,000 pairs of eyes aimed curious- ly at them. For many of the people Graham was a special hero. They had come to his services night after night, again and again, and wanted still more. When Graham spoke, Tne Garden was still. Twenty-two thousand people were silent. And they listened hard for ea'- ery word and were eager to re- spond whenever possible. Excited "aughter greeted his feeblest joke (which was rathc: feeble.) At the beginning of the pro- gram he commented that some woman had written in praising George Beverly Shea (he sings hymns for the group) and sug- gested that he should sing with the Metropolitan. I The crowd eagerly applauded. "And he does do a fine job," Gra- ham said. And the crowd ap- plauded. "And so does our pian- ist," Graham said. And again the crowd eagerly applauded. "And our organist," Graham said. And this time there were even a few rather guarded whistles. GRAHAM talked down to his audience. "How many of~ you people have been here before?" A great many hands raised, "There's a Baptist convention in New York. Howsmany of you people are Baptists? Raise your hands." A great many hands went up. "There certainly are a lot of Baptists here tonight. How many of you people are something else?" A great deal of excited laughter and more hands. He sounded -ike somebody ad- dressing a Sunday school class - lower grades. "Do you folks know what's go- ing to happen later this month?" (silence) "That's right. We're holding our closing rally at Yan- what? Some people don't believe kee Stadium. And do you know that New York with all of its people can fill Yankee Stadium for a religious program. But we think it can. I want all of you to be there for that closing service and tell your friends and relatives AFTnER THE choir of more than a thousand people, all volun- teers, sang a hymn led by Shea,J Graham began to preach. .The world is wicked," he said. Just read a newspaper and you can see the world is rotten. It has always been rotten, because man3 is naturally sinful.j H " figures were simple ones. The soul was like air. Christ was for us as sap is to the petals of a flower. The sap brings life to the flower, and Christ brings new life .to our soul. Environmental change can't solve our problems. "My watch is running slow. If I take it off this arm and put it on my other arm, will it start run- ning right?" No, it will not. It's the inside, the workings that are all wrong, and it's the same thing with the soul. Axid the oaiy way the soul can be cured is through the Lord Jesus. His vocabulary was limited. Then he asked the people to come down, to stand befors hiis pulpit if they wished to make- the "Decision for Christ." He empha- sized that it wouldn't be he who was making them come down, but rather the Lord. It was the Lord talking in their ears. He admitted that for some it would be a long walk, but "He walked a mighty long way for you." THERE would be other battles ahead. The neighbors might talk, it might affect somebody businesswise, and relatives might exert pressure. This walk was nothing by comparison. But the people who decided for Christ should get used to sacrifice. The 1000-voice choir began to sing quietly and slightly off key, as Billy gently exhorted people to come down. "I know you're fight- ing with yourselfes right now," he said softly, "But you'll decide right. Some people have even walked outthe door and decided to come back." And then the people started to come. At first only a trickle - one from the back, two from the right, then five or six from the back. And that trickle became a flood as people endlessly poured from the doors and stood with heads bowed at the pulpit. A GREAT many of these people weren't converts at all. Many came down already carrying Bi- bles and hymnbooks in their arms. Some had crosses- about their necks. Some came from the group attending the Baptist convention. These people apparently felt like Nicodemus; they had never really been reborn to the Lord Jesus. Herein lies part of the secret to Graham's success. Many of the people who "make the decision for Christ"are church goers, and may even have considered themselves religious. But Graham is able to paint graphic pictures of how good it feels and what it's like to receive Christ into one's heart. JUDGING by the crowd who made the decision, his picture of contentment, of surrender of the soul to the Lord Jesus Christ, appeals not to just a few isolated individuals or special cases. No, Billy Graham doesn't ap- pear to be a fire and brimstone 1 evani only Bu pears ana andt simpl satisf ham his v+ WELCOM 'E JS7UJE r r i - Children's. :xperts to Help mbia & Others Others - Net !
