Should have been before now.

Yeah .. "all" of us American Christians ... we need to stop playing silly games and STAND POLITICALLY against the evil being forced upon America ...

EVERY Christian Pastor "worth his salt" knows the "truth" that if one decides to "bury" his/her spiritual gift ...

and includes "voting".

If America's Christians REFUSE to exercise proper stewardship of the "gift of voting" ...

the RIGHT to VOTE will be TAKEN from American Christians by GOD'S OWN HAND.


Is that a world we wish for our Children and Grandchildren to live ... and DIE horribly in ?

most didactical and with lots of detail. i did an earlier post that merely said when churches sever themselves from the government evil nexis, God will pour out his blessings, power and revival will begin. I’ll add the healing of this land.

This kind of rhetoric should be targeted to those who are running scared. And there are plenty of them.

From what I’ve seen Reverend Graham is head and shoulders above what anyone else is doing, in terms of sticking his neck out to return this country to Christ.

Okay, the tax issue. There’s a case to be made to rid yourself of coming to depend on the extra money generated from current tax law. But is there evidence Rev Graham is toning down his message to appease the IRS?

I think this open letter to Franklin Graham is uncalled for.

What is your problem and what is your point?

Graham is way out in front on this issue.

How many souls have you led to Jesus today?

Your diatribe against Franklin Graham is vile.

He is front and center with this ..!He puts his beliefs on the line!

... I’m embarrassed you’re on this forum with such nonsense!

As evil as sodomy is, and “gay marriage,” how is it that for forty-five years, hardly anyone, including in the pro-life movement, has grasped that the answer to an evil USSC decision is NOT a Constitutional amendment, but DISOBEDIENCE. All of a sudden people are getting it. Ted Cruz gets it. Ben Carson, Marco Rubio, Jeb Bush, and several others DO NOT GET IT! They think what the USSC vomits out is “the law of the land.”

And how many times have you risked arrest?

There are hundreds, if not thousands in the prolife movement who have.

Never ask a “gotcha” question unless you already know the answer.

Kasich, Rubio, Carson, and Perry have all eliminated themselves as candidates. All of them called the Supreme Court’s abolition of marriage “the law of the land.”

Somebody please notify them that they are no longer running for President. Time to shut down.

No problem!

Arrested eight times. Convicted four times, acquitted four times.

About 2000 arrests at lunch counters, etc., in the Civil Rights movement.

About 60,000 arrests at abortion clinics. Movement rejected by all Republican politicians, almost all Catholic bishops. This shows that abortion is a vastly greater evil—and is MORE ACCEPTED—than racial segregation.

Only one Catholic bishop (René Gracida) in the entire country instructed the police that it was a mortal sin to remove obstacles (including, of course, human bodies) from the doors of abortion clinics. Many bishops condemned the Rescue Movement, most vociferously Archbishop John May of St. Louis. He announced that “the police have to enforce the law, no matter what it is,” thus putting himself in solidarity with Joseph Goebbels, Hermann Goering, etc.

Gentlemen,

Rev. Franklin Graham is to be commended for the "souls he's won for Jesus" ...

Rev. Franklin Graham is to be commended for the "small amount" of standing against the Evil in America ...



Did King David (to be) throw "spitwads" with his slingshot at the evil Goliath ?

No ... King David (to be) fired "real stone bullets" with the goal of KILLING Goliath ...



American Christian Pastors will not command "my full respect" until they start launching MILLIONS of VOTES to politically kill America's evil leaders.

Period.

Pastors are NOT called by God to sip tea and nibble on crumpets. Period.

Pastors are called by God to FIGHT against evil ... and PROPERLY instruct their Congregations on the STEWARDSHIP of VOTING.

Period.

The time for "Sunday School Fun and Games" is OVER !

======================================


Guenevere ... I do respect Franklin Graham ... and he does "indeed" put his values on the line ...

SO LONG AS IT DOESN'T INTERFERE WITH HIS TAKING CAESAR-OBAMA's thirty (30) pieces of Tax-Exempt Government Silver.


WHY did Jesus Christ COMMAND "Render Unto Ceasar" ?

To make Caesar happy ? Baloney !

It was to ensure that HIS pastors were FREE to PREACH THE TRUTH !

Then forward it Pastor Franklin Graham ... and ask him to read it and pray about it ...

My words herein are "indeed" true, and scripturally correct.

Pastor Franklin Graham will recognize that clearly.


Rev. Franklin Graham and FIVE MILLION other American Pastors need to MARCH TOWARDS THE SOUND OF BATTLE ...

or quietly retire to Florida.

Franklin Graham is not a pastor.

Franklin Graham has done infinitely more to fight evil than you.

Shut up.

With respect, my words were more harsh than I should have used.

We’re all struggling and hurting with this latest announcement that will fundamentally change our lives

There are good people on this forum.....and we’re reacting in different ways...

Franklin Graham is a good good man, who is trying to hold the faith for himself, his family and those who look to him for answers.

There are plenty of people to genuinely get mad at....
let’s not roll over one of our own.
