Franklin Graham drew scrutiny in 2009 for drawing a full-time salary from Samaritan 's Purse , while simultaneously receiving a full-time salary from Billy Graham Evangelistic Association ( BGEA ) . This was called into question after his 2008 compensation from both organizations totaled $ 1.2 million . ( Most of this was the result of a new IRS rule that required him to re-report deferred retirement contributions that had already been reported over the previous three years . ) Some experts on non-profits have questioned whether one person can perform two full-time jobs leading organizations that employ hundreds and spend hundreds of millions around the world . In response to the questions about his compensation , Graham decided to give up his salary from BGEA , stating his calling to the ministry " was never based on compensation . " He also had contributions to his retirement plans suspended until the economy bounced back . However , Graham was again criticized in 2015 when it was revealed he had again taken up his salary from BGEA , and that his annual compensation was significantly higher than that of the CEO 's of similar but much larger non-profit organisations In a March 2011 interview with '' Newsmax '' , Graham said the 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan " may be " the second coming and Armageddon
