he Rev. Billy Graham has issued a written warning to America's churches: "Prepare for persecution."
The renowned preacher and founder of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association penned a commentary that was posted on his website last week and is slated to appear in the November edition of Decision magazine.
In the magazine, Graham notes that the American church has been largely unfamiliar with persecution, writing that this "immunity to persecution that Christians in our country have experienced in the past two or three centuries is unusual."

Absolutely. God's word comes with a guarantee. When it goes out, results happen.
"So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it." Is 55:11
Anyone who knows their bible would already know this.
Based on some of the comments on this thread, I’d say some don’t.
Franklin is one of the good guys.
bump for later
Look for a Trump/Cruz election next year.
Second it. Americans and this includes Christians are armed to the teeth.
Here is a link to the original Billy Graham article. It was written in 1957, and this month republished in Decision Magazine. It is just as true today as then; in fact, it may be more true today.
Rev. Billy Graham ... a great American Christian icon ...

As i see it the US is fast making little if any difference on the World stage...Obama has seen to that....but also we’ve slid so far down morally that the generations have no knowledge of our history to stand on...thus most are “followers” of the latest fade of becoming “World Citizens”....they will be, if not already the ones hollering “No Borders”...and Lets just “love everybody”....they haven’t a clue of where freedom comes from nor the great cost...let alone how to sustain it.
So we have a small chance of surviving as a nation.....but we’d better get it together or we’ll be the next civilization to fall....bringing in all these refugees and immigrants have already robbed this nation of it’s identity.
That is kind of the way I take it. I don't know if these persecutors, whoever they may be, expect all of us to go quietly into the night. Are many people going to be waiting for therm in the stairwells, and hallways? If that is the way it is, how many of these people will continue to keep doing what they are doing? Remember Solzhenitsyn.
Boy ... THIS sure deteriorated into a preacher bashing thread.
