Franklin Graham Calls Obama's Guest List for Papal Visit 'Disgraceful'
By Sandy Fitzgerald 19 Sep 2015 10:42 AM
President Barack Obama's guest list for Pope Francis' visit next week "should raise a lot of eyebrows" the Rev. Franklin Graham said on Facebook Saturday, calling the resident's plans "disgraceful and obviously inappropriate."
"Is there no end to the lengths the president will go to in order to push his sinful agenda?" said Graham, who shared a link from The Wall Street Journal about the president's plans.
"It’s wise of the Vatican to question President Obama’s guest list for the Pope’s visit next week," Graham said. The guests are transgender activists Mateo Williamson and Vivian Taylor, the first openly gay Episcopal bishop, Bishop Gene Robinson and Sister Simone Campbell, an activist nun who leads a group criticized by the Vatican for its silence on abortion and euthanasia.

Middle of the night, that read as Paypal visit. Which may actually be ironic.
preach it Pastor Graham!
If he had a prominent Muslim, I wonder if he would invite similar?
Well... Graham sure respects the Roman Catholic segment of Christendom better than a lot of Roman Catholics do!
Check out Jonah Goldberg’s article on this very point:

Thanks for link.
Until January 2017 his actions are only going to get worse and likely a lot more frequent. He knows he can inflict maximum damage and congress nor the courts will stop him, his pen, nor his phone. Pray for the nation. GOD does has the power and authority to stop him. It will take a nation turning their hearts to GOD to do it. Obama respects no one & that’s quite obvious.
This guest list was approved by Wuerl, Dolan, O’Malley, and Cupich. The Pope will shake hands and beam at each and every freak Obama parades in front of him.
Maybe, hoping as a Catholic, the Pope will shock and awe the president by speaking out on marriage, abortion,euthanasia etc.
Jesus walked among the sinners, but he didn’t agree with them or condescend to them. I pray the Pope does the right thing.
As for that nun who approves of euthanasia, I would be gone 7 years now because I would have chosen death over the physical suffering i was enduring.
It is mostly gone now, it is livable. And I will get to see nephews/nieces graduate, get married, look up to me. After surviving the ordeal i did and not giving in, they have Great respect for me and heed my advice on many things.
I will get to enjoy football for many more years, snow, food, my attractive fiance and much more.
like all men with a calling from God, i think he is respectful and concerned with building harmony in the Spirit among all true belivers. but he’s not afraid to preach the Truth to all. he’s saying don’t be decieved to the Body while preaching the unvarnished Truth to God’s lost sheep.
and yes, no earthly church is perfect. i think i have met (like Graham) a bunch of true believers residing in that denomination and others. i think Pastor Graham wants to call out the best in all of us Christians. he wants to emphasize unity in the Body. may God continue to bless him with courage and strength to stand up for us against the enemy.
It is ironically by sticking to core evangelical principles of belief, that trust on Jesus Christ personally for eternal salvation will be rewarded with just that result, that I can see past a lot of the theological troubles of other segments of Christendom (and even in the evangelical segment). I wish the troubles were not there, of course, but they do not cancel out the promise.
hey brother. yes, it sounds like our Lord has blessed you with suffering and joy. glory to Him you’ve come through the fire (i’ve seen some of your other posts tonight). keep moving closer to Him. Jesus is the answer to all of it.
addressing your comment. it certainly is an opportunity for Francis and i hope he takes full advantage. if i were him i’d just cancel the appearance in protest, but speaking Truth is another good way. i think Pastor Graham has certainly prepared the ground for him and lent him and all Catholics support in his statement. see my post #13.
Amen brother.
I read your post. It is right on point. We need to come together as Christians because there are many forces aligned against us.
I will keep fighting the good fight, and take the pain and the joy as they come!
Not surprising, really, considering that anti-American Obama has done NOTHING right since he became POTUS.
It is a disgrace. Obama likes to insult people.
He’s a radical marxist-revolutionary faggot and cultural moslem. The spawn of Satan.
He’s embraced a boatload of hellish philosophies and aspirations and unloaded all that on America and America’s friends.
If (hopefully when) the regime changes again, America really ought to tell the world we’re sorry, that was Obama and he had us by the nose. Trump (which is looking like the likeliest possibility now) is too nice to do that, though.
