Franklin Graham Launching 50-State Decision America Tour in 2016
BillyGraham.org ^ | 4/15/15 | BGEA

Posted on 04/18/2015 1:43:01 PM PDT by SoFloFreeper

On Tuesday night, Franklin Graham announced he will embark on a 50-state tour of the United States next year. He made the following announcement on his Facebook page:

America is in trouble. At 62 years of age, I’ve lived long enough to learn that neither the Democrats nor the Republicans can turn this country around; no political party or politician is the answer.

The only hope for this country is Almighty God and His Son Jesus Christ.

Next year I am planning to travel to all 50 states to conduct prayer rallies—we are calling this the Decision America Tour. I want to challenge Christians to boldly live out their faith and to pray for our nation and its leaders. I want to encourage Christians to get out and vote, and to cast their ballots for candidates who uphold biblical principles.

I want to strongly urge Christians to run for public office at every level—local, state, and federal. We will not be endorsing any political candidates, but I will be proclaiming the truth of God’s Gospel in every state. More details will come later. I hope you will start praying with us now.

But if it’s divine punishment, and God’s will, what good will revolt do?

Frankly you appear to be a democrat, the thread you hijacked and the posts that you keep ignoring about how this helps conservatives and us winning in 2016, indicates that upsets you, and you do not want it discussed, or to take place.

I don;t believe it’s devine will.. or God has anything at all to do with it..
Democracy is the source of socialism...
Democracy is the political disease... socialism is just a symptom..

Democracts pushing for democracy for several hundred years has finally come to fruition..
AND the other symptoms it possesses...

Took republicans FORGETTING what a constitutional republic “IS” and “should be” to make “that” possible..
Republicans generally are quite brain washed..

True prayer includes repentance. Remember “ACTS”?

A-Adoration
C-Confession
T-Thanksgiving
S-Supplication

Can we either stop this type of violent advocacy on a Christ-honoring thread or delete it, please?

I am asking nicely because the purpose of this thread was to point folks to Franklin Graham’s peaceful efforts to honor God and stop America’s decline.

If someone disagrees, fine. But will you stop advocating violence?

[Your focus may be on the USA, but God’s focus is on judging America, which means things will be getting a whole lot worse than they are now, and not better.]

Who are you to determine God’s focus? That is a dangerous position to take.

POTUS is not an entry level position. Run for something else first.

Matthew 5:22

But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

I pray for you and all those in a carnal state to answer the call to repentance so that they may receive the knowledge of the truth. We are in the great falling away in this present time, debauchery abounds. Our own elected officials are blinded by material wealth in temporal existence at the expense of their souls. The natural man cannot receive the things of the Spirit

That place Jesus is speaking of in the last part of that verse is where there will be nothing but gnashing of teeth and regret. Do not heap condemnation upon yourself

This is no different message than that of any Christian apostle/evangelist/missionary/martyr through the ages, Hosepipe. It's easy enough to check out. I do agree on this, though....they were all called crazy.

But, I'll be a fool for Jesus, for "the foolishness of God is wiser than men."

THANK YOU REV. GRAHAM! I hope you can inspire that 50 percent of Evangelical Christians who did not vote in 2008 and 2012 to get off their blessed assurance and get to the polls. Had they done so in '08 and '12 we would not have a Marxist Muslim in the White House. I pray that you will be successful in your endeavor.

They are not going to vote for just any Republican...We'd better hope a Cruz wins the primary...

Maybe america is a big Babylon that isn’t supposed to turn around ..


I’m thinking that’s the case. If most of the people hadn’t turned their backs on Him, it would be different. We have been protected and blessed up until now. That’s changing, I’m afraid.

You are correct. You simply expressed your opinion.

Some people who don’t like other opinions make personal attacks. Just like liberals.
