Commenting on the "incredible" media bias this election year, evangelical Pastor Franklin Graham said the "corruption" in both political parties is "unbelieveable" and the media, "along with many politicians from both parties, doesn't want any of this to change."
"Isn't the media bias incredible -- especially relating to political candidates?" said Rev. Graham in an Oct. 24 post on Facebook. "Geraldo Rivera said last night that it’s like nothing he’s ever seen."
"They spin story after story against the candidates they don’t like and in favor of the candidates they support," he said. "I hope and pray that Christians are not deceived by the media's bias, but will give prayerful consideration as they go to the polls and vote."
"Our political system in this country is broken," said Rev. Graham. "The corruption is in both parties and is unbelievable. The media, along with many politicians from both parties, doesn’t want any of this to change."
"As I went to all 50 states this year and stood on the capitol steps with Christians from every state, we prayed and confessed our sins to God," he said. "We asked His forgiveness and asked Him to heal this land. My prayer is that you will continue to pray, and that you will vote."
Source: Facebook "America needs the Christian voice at the ballot box," said Rev. Graham. "We can’t be silent. The church needs to take a stand for God’s truth and His righteousness."
In conclusion, Rev. Graham said, "At the end of the day the most critical issue in this election is the Supreme Court. We’ve already seen the influence and impact this court has on the direction of our nation. You have to decide which presidential candidate you trust to appoint the next justices to serve lifetime terms and then vote for them. May God bless America again!"
Franklin Graham, 64, is the son of world-renowned evangelist Billy Graham, arguably the most effective Christian preacher o fhte last 60 years. Franklin Graham is married, has five children, and lives in Boone, N.C. He frequently comments of current affairs on radio, television, and on the Internet.
Graham is clearly calling for a vote against Clinton and a vote to put a conservative on the Supreme Court.
He is calling for a vote for Trump
The media is all now owned by the same global establishment corporate interests that owns the politicians on both sides. These interests fund the corruption - they are the source of the pay offs.
The politicians, the media, the chamber of commerce, the billionaire cabal.....all of these are the unholy alliance that is distorting our entire world.
Therefore, we know where their power comes from.
This is how I am viewing this election.
Let’s look past the messengers (neither have an impeccable past). There’s a lot of noise but let’s look at their message (in no particular order) ...
(1) Abortion?
(2) Jobs
(3) immigration
(4) safety (muslim refugees)
(5) religious liberty
(5) education
(6) military and treatment of veterans
(7) trade
(8) supreme courts
(9) bigger vs smaller federal government
ETC.
Trump wins on every one of them.
Christians that say they cannot support either are wrong. If they can prevent just one partial birth abortion, they should what they can do.
The media IS corruption.
I agree with your list. For me, #9 is #1, but after that we are in total agreement.
If they were any more corrupt, they’d be whatever the step beyond slime is.
As the saying goes, “The DEVIL is in the details.”.....Satan is expanding his domain with the way the Bible tells us he works- lies, kills, steals-and those that play with him, stay with him!!!!!!!
We have gotten so good at lies and stealing in our personal lives that we think it is wise to steal from the government and businesses who are deemed rich. When you do not recognize how Satan works and give into his works, you lose your faith in God, your creator....and eventually unless you return from the forces of evil, you live with them eternally! We rarely think eternity anymore as the headlines change hourly or more so that has us fascinated with hours and minutes vs. eternity!
PRAY II Chronicles 7:14. Memorize it and pray it when you have a break in thoughts everyday. It makes a happy difference in life!!
Christian Hugs!
Why should they? They have already received their 30 pieces of silver.
You read me correctly, YGTG. Satan roams about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. The hope thing in those words is first, Satan is not omnipresent....he must roam about. Second, Satan is not omniscient...he has to seek out people.
Our holy Triune God — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent.
He raise even the basest of people to be the kings of kingdoms. Let us hope that this basest of men, Donald Trump, is the one God will raise to be the leader of our country.
We do know that Donald Trump will not kill babies as they exit their mother’s womb.
Franklin Graham nailed the “reporting” of the US media.
To say that I am ANGRY (yes Meghan kelly, it’s ok to be angry) with the media is a huge understatement.
I reject them.
I will shortly shut off my satellite link and go to some form of internet selection of only what I want to watch.
Our founding fathers would be ashamed. Not so much ashamed of the government they fought so hard to create but the stupidity of the People who continue to elect such scum and not do anything to stop the corruption on the Hill and in the media.
I agree. They’d also be appalled at what the party system has done to the constitution they wrote.
Graham is one Christian leader who has had a clear head on his shoulders throughout all this.

My dear Texas Girl,
A few verses further gives this,
“21 And this house, which is high, shall be an astonishment to every one that passeth by it; so that he shall say, Why hath the LORD done thus unto this land, and unto this house? 22 And it shall be answered, Because they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath he brought all this evil upon them.”
Truly, this is what we deserve.
