Franklin Graham on Obama

Thank God for our brothers and sisters in Christ who still believe in the basic teachings of God. Franklin Graham has come out with a strong statement against Obama. Now, this will be a significant development for many Evangelicals and other Protestants.

Here is a snippet. The link is at the bottom.


Evangelist Franklin Graham said President Barack Obama has “shaken his fist at God” by voicing support for gay marriage. 

In an interview Wednesday with ABC News, Obama said his opinions had evolved and he now believes same-sex couples should have the right to wed.

“At a certain point, I’ve just concluded that for me personally it is important for me to go ahead and affirm that I think same-sex couples should be able to get married,” Obama said.

Graham, son of the Rev. Billy Graham, said the president was defying God’s will by changing his opinion on the issue.

“President Obama has, in my view, shaken his fist at the same God who created and defined marriage. It grieves me that our president would now affirm same-sex marriage, though I believe it grieves God even more,” Graham said in a statement.

“This is a sad day for America. May God help us,” he said.

Graham supported a measure to amend North Carolina’s constitution to bar gay marriage. Voters on Tuesday passed the amendment with a 61 percent approval rate.
