Franklin Graham Slams Christianity Today: My Father Billy Graham ‘Voted for Donald Trump’
Breitbart ^ | December 20, 2019 | THOMAS D. WILLIAMS

. . .

“My father knew Donald Trump, he believed in Donald Trump, and he voted for Donald Trump,” Graham wrote on Facebook early Friday. “He believed that Donald J. Trump was the man for this hour in history for our nation.”

. . .

Since “they invoked my father’s name (I suppose to try to bring legitimacy to their statements),” Rev. Graham wrote, “I feel it is important for me to respond.”

“Yes, my father Billy Graham founded Christianity Today; but no, he would not agree with their opinion piece. In fact, he would be very disappointed,” Graham said, noting that the misappropriation of his father’s name is what moved him to reveal whom his father voted for in 2016.

. . .

“The list of accomplishments is long, but for me as a Christian, the fact that he is the most pro-life president in modern history is extremely important — and Christianity Today wants us ignore that, to say it doesn’t count?” he continued. “The President has been a staunch defender of religious freedom at home and around the world — and Christianity Today wants us to ignore that? Also the President has appointed conservative judges in record number — and Christianity Today wants us to ignore that?”

. . .

Christianity Today said it’s time to call a spade a spade,” he wrote. “The spade is this — Christianity Today has been used by the left for their political agenda. It’s obvious that Christianity Today has moved to the left and is representing the elitist liberal wing of evangelicalism.”

Someone needs to explain the Christianity Today’s Editor Mark that lying is still a sin.

Liberals routinely falsely accuse people of sexual impropriety and then say tear them down because of said false allegations. Everyone from Roy Moore to Brett Kavanaugh.

False accusations of foreign collusion are becoming routine for them, too. Look at them calling Tulsi Gabbard a Russian asset.

As well as, bearing false witness against another.

It looks like CT is another woke-church false profit to go along with the Russell Moore - Al Mohler - Beth Moore - George Soros axis.

Based on the article about Trump, CT must make further condemnations as well.

Condemn Moses - he killed a man.
Condemn King David - He committed adultery and had a man killed.
Condemn King Solomon - He committed idolatry.
Condemn Saul (Paul) - He was an accessory to murder.

Or, CT could recant, apologize, and ask forgiveness.

I've been hearing reference to the CT editorial all day, so am glad to hear that Franklin Graham has distanced himself.

Thanks for posting.

President Trump is on the side of the Angels.

One can only wonder what side these people are on...

Exactly! However lying is permissible with leftists and Muslims so you will evoke no conviction or repentance from them.
