Laodicean Franklin Graham Pleads With Evangelicals To Receive The Sacrament Of Vaccination, Says He’ll Join With Joe Biden To Push The Jab
nteb ^ | 11/1/21 | Geoffrey Grider

Posted on 11/02/2021 10:29:33 AM PDT by Roman_War_Criminal

Franklin Graham is begging his evangelical buddies to line up and receive the government injection “before it’s too late!!!”, going so far as to say he would love to partner with Joe Biden in administering the sacrament of vaccination. He said his famous father, the pro-Vatican Billy Graham, would have taken the vaccine, and for that matter, he said Jesus would take it, too.

“A wonderful and horrible thing is committed in the land; The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests bear rule by their means; and my people love to have it so: and what will ye do in the end thereof?” Jeremiah 5:30,31 (KJB)

All this panic and fear mongering over a virus with a 98.2% recovery rate, pushing a vaccine that is being forced on the global population against their will, with governments threatening their citizens with economic deprivation for refusing to be injected. Billy Graham said that the Roman Catholic pope was the most spiritual person he had ever met, his son Franklin Graham wants Christians to be injected against their will. The apple really doesn’t fall too far from the tree now, does it?

Franklin Graham urges evangelicals to get vaccinated before it’s ‘too late’ FROM RELIGION NEWS: “But we have a vaccine out there that could possibly save your life. And if you wait, it could be too late,” added the prominent evangelist and president of the relief organization Samaritan’s Purse. Graham said his father — the famed evangelist Billy Graham, who died in 2018 — would urge them to do the same.

“MY FATHER WAS A FIRM BELIEVER IN MEDICINE. HE BELIEVED IN IT, SO HE WOULD HAVE BEEN A SUPPORTER — NO QUESTION,” HE SAID.

The Axios interview comes as polling by the Pew Research Center shows 45% of white evangelicals say they definitely or probably will not get vaccinated against COVID-19, a higher number than any other religious group. Despite those numbers, Graham told reporter Mike Allen he wasn’t sure that more evangelical Christians are reluctant to get the vaccine than other groups but said he knows that some people are afraid of needles and that some don’t like to be told what to do.

THE REV. FRANKLIN GRAHAM WOULD BE HAPPY TO WORK WITH THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION ON ENCOURAGING EVANGELICALS TO GET COVID VACCINES, HE TOLD “AXIOS ON HBO.”

Graham received pushback from many of those evangelicals in March after posting on Facebook that he had received the vaccine and believed Jesus would advocate for it, too. Samaritan’s Purse has hosted both field hospitals to treat COVID patients and vaccine clinics.

What convinced him to get vaccinated, he told Axios, was conversations he had with Ben Carson — the well-known neurosurgeon and Seventh-day Adventist turned politician and Trump cabinet member — and other doctors and scientists, who all told him they planned to get vaccinated.

“TO ME, THERE WAS NO QUESTION IT WAS SAFE,” HE SAID.

Graham encouraged pastors to talk to their congregations about the vaccine, saying, “We are leaders in the community, and we have a responsibility to inform them of the truth.” Asked whether getting vaccinated was a pro-life issue, he said, “Of course, and I’m pro-life.”

“Medicine is pro-life,” he added.

Just when you think you all can't come up with anything more breathtakingly absurd, you outdo yourselves.

Graham is treading on very shaky ground.
He should never even contemplate partnering with a sin-affirming moron like Biden, but he states that he will.

Nice!

Really disappointing but not surprised. This was his father’s view:

Billy Graham Says Jesus Christ is Not the Only Way

ATTENTION NON-JUDGMENTALISTS!
PLEASE READ THIS:

Billy Graham said that people can get to Heaven another way besides through hearing the Gospel of Jesus Christ and then repenting and believing the Gospel. He basically says that “good” and “sincere” people who know nothing about Christ are on their way to Heaven.

Transcript from the “Hour of Power” show:

http://www.ondoctrine.com/10grahab.htm

And here is the content of the transcript:

Dr. Schuller: “Tell me, what is the future of Christianity?”
Dr. Graham: “Well, Christianity and being a true believer, you know, I think there’s the body of Christ which comes from all the Christian groups around the world, or outside the Christian groups. I think that everybody that loves Christ or knows Christ, whether they’re conscious of it or not, they’re members of the body of Christ. And I don’t think that we’re going to see a great sweeping revival that will turn the whole world to Christ at any time. What God is doing today is calling people out of the world for His name. Whether they come from the Muslim world, or the Buddhist world, or the Christian world, or the non-believing world, they are members of the body of Christ because they’ve been called by God. They may not even know the name of Jesus, but they know in their hearts they need something that they don’t have and they turn to the only light they have and I think they’re saved and they’re going to be with us in heaven.”
Dr. Schuller: “What I hear you saying is that it’s possible for Jesus Christ to come into a human heart and soul and life even if they’ve been born in darkness and have never had exposure to the Bible. Is that a correct interpretation of what you’re saying?”
Dr. Graham: “Yes it is because I believe that. I’ve met people in various parts of the world in tribal situations that they have never seen a Bible or heard about a Bible, have never heard of Jesus but they’ve believed in their hearts that there is a God and they tried to live a life that was quite apart from the surrounding community in which they lived.”
Dr. Schuller: “This is fantastic. I’m so thrilled to hear you say that. There’s a wideness in God’s mercy.
Dr. Graham: There is. There definitely is.”

The conversation above occurred between Billy Graham and Robert Schuller, who is the pastor of the Crystal Cathedral in Garden Grove, California and founder of the Hour Of Power television program. The interview was broadcast on May 31, 1997 on the Hour of Power television program, titled “Say ‘Yes’ To Possibility Thinking,” program #1426.

Also check out this:

Go to page 6 of this newsweek article to find out: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14204483/
The part of this article that I am talking about starts at the second paragraph...

Think about it friends, if what Billy said was true...that one can get to Heaven another way besides through Christ, then there was no reason for Christ to shed His precious blood. But, the reason He did was because He knew there would be no other way. Read John 14:6, Acts 20:28, Romans 3:21-26 & 5:9, Ephesians 1:7 & 2:13, Colossians 1:20, Hebrews 9:12 & 9:22, etc.

See also George W. Bush, Billy Graham & Robert Schuller promoting another Jesus - the New Age Christ:

This should shock any Bible believing Christian.

Billy Graham Says Jesus Christ is Not the Only Way to Heaven!

“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing” Mat. 7:15

“Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.” 1John 4:1

“And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness” 2Cor.11:14,15

“Prove all things” “by the word of God”, the Holy Bible. 1Thess. 5:21; 2Tim. 2:15; Rom. 10:17

“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:” 2Tim. 3:16

“Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.” 2Tim. 4:1-4

With Graham the disappointment isn’t surprising.
Robert Jeffress OTOH, all I can do is SMH.

Lot’s of women in the pulpits these days.

In full disclosure, I would like to add that my husband and I are vaccinated. It was a personal decision as we are both in our 60s and my sweet hubby has COPD and at risk. We had friends that either died or were extremely ill from the Delta variant.

But it still remains a personal decision. No one should be forced to take the shot or have someone say Jesus would have taken it, which is nonsense. What truly is troublesome is getting in bed with an administration that stole the election and is destroying America. If Franklin had discernment from the Holy Spirit, he would know that.

Sometimes He does, sometimes He doesn’t.

“THIS” vaccine has demonic properties on it that most discernable Christians notice and will avoid.

Maybe Franklin has lost too many of his “contributing units”...and it’s cutting into his swag.

Since the grandson had COVID in July and the Axios article is from May, I would say NONE.

the church age began with an outpouring and will close with an outpouring

Right now a "Grace Revolution" is underway in the Body of Christ around the world fulfilling Jude 3.

This will be quickly followed by a worldwide and merciful revival of souls being "compelled to come and dine" before that great and terrible day fulfilling Luke 14:22-23.

The world’s ship of state, so to speak, will have been righted by the wholesale return to the Lord our God. Peace and prosperity will abound. A blessing for the saved, but a trap for those who have refused Jesus. Then Jesus will come is a day and hour he is not expected fulfilling Matthew 24:38; 2 Peter 3:3-4.

We can refer to the aborted/murdered babies being exploited or the people who were duped by the propaganda and ended up becoming VAERS reported (or unreported) casualties.

Too many lies coming from those pushing the vax for me to even think it’s what they are claiming.

It is a moral issue. No escaping that.

“It’s a shame that some have made this a Christianity issue. It is not.”

Even if it’s not in your case (free will is a good thing), it definitely is for some Christians (again, free will is a good thing).

Some Christians are repulsed at the exploitation of murdered babies, and some Christians balk at putting questionable and/or unknown chemicals in their bodies - the Temple of the Holy Spirit. Other “Christians” have no problem.

So, yes; it really can be a Christianity issue. For me, it’s that and so much more.


Extremely well said!

Absolutely!

Fellowship with the world is enmity with the Lord.
Why yolk with unbelievers pushing policies?

Let no man deceive you.

Just say "No!" to the murdered/aborted baby polluted and cursed experimental genetically modified technology injections.

Amen! I think we will witness both according to the Word, (should the Lord tarry) a revival AND a falling away simultaneously. And that door to the Ark is about to close. Come up hither.

“MY FATHER WAS A FIRM BELIEVER IN MEDICINE. HE BELIEVED IN IT, SO HE WOULD HAVE BEEN A SUPPORTER — NO QUESTION,” HE SAID.

His father would have recognized the divisiveness of the issue and kept his status to himself and not talked about it.

I contribute to BGEA, get the monthly Decision magazine and follow Franklin on Twitter.

He is a preacher of the Gospel. He is pro-vax, like Trump, but is not maniacal or dogmatic about it.

Attacks on him like this smell of agitprop.

You believe whatever you wish and keep following him on twitter 👍

Christians should know what their so-called ‘leaders’ are doing behind the scenes. Assuming Jesus would advocate a fix is not for Graham to ever comment on.

On that alone he should be called out on. Not to mention his willingness to partner with an Abortion & LGTBTQ advocating administration.

Now you know!
