Thousands of people are calling for the evangelist Franklin Graham to be fired for supporting Donald Trump after armed rioters stormed the U.S. Capitol in the president’s name. As of Tuesday afternoon, more than 17,000 people have signed a petition by the Christian community Faithful America that pushes for Graham’s removal from Samaritan’s Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. The petition, created Jan. 15, is addressed to the board of directors at both organizations. Graham is the son of the late evangelist Billy Graham and is the chairman, president and CEO of Samaritan’s Purse and BGEA.

This is Communism. They outsourced enforcement to mobs and corporations. Franklin Graham and Samaritan's Purse should confront this head-on with a Biblical admonition. Quote Scripture, again and again.

“Armed” protestors? First they want us to believe these were all Trump supporters. Now they eat us to believe they were armed.
Good grief!

My opinion and only MY opinion.
I do not believe that you can be a modern liberal and still call yourself a Christian. The belief system of the two systems do not match at any point in time.

The Democratic platform calls for killing babies. If you are a Democrat, you are all in for killing the innocent. No way can a Christian believe in this.

Firing a man from the company and organizations his family has owned for decades? Where do those Woke Folk get all the high-sounding ideals? ''Faithful America'' has co-opted Christian sounding words to promote the Agenda of the Antichrist. I had many problems with Billy Graham's public embrace of worldly organizations toward the end of his life. But Franklin cannot be blamed for things his dad or association members did, thought, espoused or said. The New Testament is full of the warning to be not deceived. Jesus himself gave FOUR clear warnings.

I wonder if any of them were Christians, or any from his area?

How many of them follow the Graham Ministry? How many of them are really Christians? I have my doubts.
This is all organized.

I know a woman, indeed a Christian, who is intelligent and a voracious reader of C.S. Lewis. In fact, she has led groups who study C.S. Lewis and other great writers.
She is also black and always votes for every Democrat.
I cannot figure that out for the life of me.

I wonder how many of those who signed the letter actually contribute to Samaritan’s Purse.

Deadly Presidency? What exactly are these brain dead people talking about? The virus wasn't Trump's idea, it was China's. Trump tried to stop it, which is more than the country these idiots worship did.

I pray that Godly ministers around the nation come quickly to the defense of their brother, Franklin Graham. Samaritan’s Purse is going to be fighting for its survival. Many others will follow. We must stand with him in battle prayer and steadfast action. God bless you Franklin.

I didn't know one could get fired from their religious convictions. Sure looks like that first right in the first amendment is nothing but a joke now.

#5, I know of a few Catholic priests who say a Catholic cannot vote Democrat. However, they are the exceptions and not the rule. Too many Catholic bishops are silent on the matter of abortion.

I like to know WHO is AGAINST me, --but it's not always easy to determine, --unless THEY HELP!
Like the Irish Blessing "May those who love us, love us, and those who don't, may God turn their hearts, and if He doesn't turn their hearts, may He turn their ankles so we'll know them by their limping"
Thanks to THESE "thousands" whose names reveal their "limping" hearts
[...and to all the other PEOPLE like the RINO Mitch McConnell, et.al. who reveal who I can and can NOT trust any longer]

#12,#17- Precisely. In 2014, Rush Limbaugh was the target of a “grassroots” effort to get his sponsors to end their relationship with him--the “Stop Rush” conspiracy. It was determined that 10% of Twitter users accounted for almost 70% of the “Stop Rush” tweets to his advertisers, “amplified by illicit software.” The political activists were not customers, they were people harassing small businesses who were advertising with Rush. With “custom automated tweeting software” nine individuals were able to “send barrages of thousands of messages through this software.”
The Reverend Franklin Graham's compassion and support for President Trump was in obedience to what is taught in Scripture, for which people of faith thank him: “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, 2 for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.” (1 Timothy 2:1-2)

I visited the Faithful America website which is wide open so anyone can go there and sign the petition any number of times. Faithful America appears to be mostly involved in causes involving homosexuality and seem to think they are more expert on how Jesus regarded it than any of the Apostles.

I'm sure the board members will pay attention to a bunch of Godless radical cranks. Hopefully the board's response will be "We'll pray for you."
