And what does the Bible say about deception and temptation from the devil?Franklin Graham is a mere shell of what his father was. What his father built Franklin has undermined. Like Jerry, Jr. he has maligned the evangelical cause even further by his overt political beliefs.
“....Franklin Graham is a very different sort of man, better known today for his right-wing political pronouncements than for his evangelism. Shortly after 9/11, Franklin Graham provided the sound bite of today’s culture wars when he denounced Islam as “a very wicked and evil religion.” He later became the standard bearer for the view that Islam is, in his words “a religion of hatred . . . a religion of war.”
In addition to purveying the birther nonsense that helped to propel Donald Trump to political prominence, Franklin Graham suggested that President Barack Obama was not a Christian and might in fact be a secret Muslim. Along with Jerry Falwell’s son, Jerry Falwell Jr., he helped to elect Trump president by swinging 80 percent of white evangelical voters to his side. And then when Trump was elected he attributed his victory not to a surge of White Christian support or to swing states in the Midwest but to divine providence”.
Billy Graham Built a Movement. Now His Son Is Dismantling It.
If you want to understand the evangelical decline in the United States, look no further than the transition from Billy to Franklin Graham.www.politico.com
Where as his father sought to bring people together, his son seeks the politics of division. He is a charlatan.
Shame on you for lying like that.
Billy was used by Nixon but was wise enough to have understood that and warned against getting too close to politicians.
I find it odd that Franklin has seemed to have discarded that wise advice.
Why would you care, you hate religious people anyway...
I am a Christian. Do you know what the Bible says about being a false witness?
What Does the Bible Say About Bearing False Witness?
youve been deceived by the DemonRat party, or you’re complicit with them.
DemonRats are the party that burn churches statues and bibles . They classify people by race. A large majority of atheists are DemonRat. They also kill babies and mutilate children’s genitals.
WHAT A GREAT CHRISTIAN YOU ARE
I'm not a Democrat.
What exactly are you then? Because, from my short time here, you are one of the more prolific arguers of the Democrat agenda...
A vast generalization. Unfortunately a large number of things the Democrats claim they are for are things I support but when they have the ability to do them they do not.
So, you're in line with Democrat agenda items, but don't want to associate yourself with the party....Can't say as I blame you...
Still none the less, if you find yourself in line with their agenda, I would say that declared or not, you are exactly that....
Just like as a Conservative, I am more often aligned with the Republican party, even though my voter registration is listed as Conservative...
The Democrat agenda is corporatism just like the Republicans.
