Franklin Graham Apologizes for Comments about Obama's Faith
Evangelist Franklin Graham apologized Tuesday (Feb. 28) to President Obama for comments made about his Christian faith and said religion has "nothing to do" with Graham's decision not to support Obama's re-election.
Graham's apology came after a group of prominent black religious leaders criticized the evangelist for responding in an interview that he did not know whether Obama is a Christian and suggesting that Islamic law considers him to be a Muslim.
As president, Obama has sworn to uphold and defend the constitution, as interpreted by the supreme court, which is contrary to the law of God.
In this present age, it's impossible for the POTUS, or any high level politician for that matter, to faithfully serve both masters. To believe that God would put a faithful servant in such an impossible position (Rom 13) is absurd.
Graham would have done well to say nothing at all than to speak the truth and then backpedal.
On average, how many Bible verses are included in a RCC Mass vs. Evangelical worship service?
John Yurich USA wrote: Nothing scriptural in the Mass? You do not call readings from the Bible scriptural, the Lord's Prayer scriptural, Apostles and Nicene Creeds scriptural minus that Baptism remits sins, prayers to Jesus scriptural and the words of Jesus from the Last Supper scriptural? And before I embraced Jesus as Savior and Lord I believed that the entire Mass was scriptural. But after I emraced Jesus as Savior and Lord I started to believe that there are some unscriptural parts to the Mass. And the reason is that I started being guided by the Holy Spirit. If I was not being guided by the Holy Spirit then I would not have changed from believing that the entire Mass is scriptural to believing that there are some unscriptural parts to the Mass. Nobody who is not guided by the Holy Spirit would have the ability to believe that there are some unscriptural parts to the Mass.
Graham is a coward. Say what you mean anad mean what you say. Obama is not following the Christian faith. Abortion is murder of innocent life. I can not support anyone who condones the murder of innocent babies and celebrates the diversity of the homosexual lifestyle as president. If he is a Christian, he is a very confused one. As are all the Christians who voted him into office. Win, lose, or draw, the abortion issue should keep any true Christian from voting for this joker...yet, here he is and poised to continue being an Obamanation for four more years to come. I'm glad I'm not living in the states right now.

Anybody can say "they embrace Jesus as ones Savior and Lord" but, the actions of his belief system reflects what kind of spirit that controls him. President Obama is not a Christian.

Also.. Graham is a coward. We in America will suffer way more persecution then this to come! If he folds to the NAACP, and a bunch of liberal churches. Wow, hate to see when the Muslims start taking control of this nation!
Sorry. Testing from iPhone.. Last was on page1863 of the catechism. Also. Page1477 " Catholics can obtain their own salvation and cooperate in saving their brothers.". Sorry. But this is not scripture. This is man made works salvation.. It's by Christ alone, and faith alone. I prey your eyes are open. And flee the wrath to come!
Catechism of the catholic church.@1994 by the US catholic conference. "page1030-31 purgatory is a cleansing fire that achieves the holiness nessary for heaven" Most sins are not deserving of hell
RCC MASS has nothing scriptural to it and any one participating on this demonic doctrine is in deep darkness. Anybody can say "they embrace Jesus as ones Savior and Lord" but, the actions of his belief system reflects what kind of spirit that controls him. President Obama is not a Christian.
Jim Lincoln:The Bible states in Romans 10:9 and John 3:16 that there is only one requirement for salvation and that is to embrace Jesus as ones Savior and Lord. Church membership in any church(and that includes Protestant Churches) is not mentioned in the Bible as being a requirement for salvation. As long as the church that one who is Born Again worships Jesus as God that is all that matters. And for your information I accept those Marks Of A True Believer. Do you think that you are Jesus and have the ability to know who is saved and who is not saved? If someone embraces Jesus as Savior and Lord and rejects and repudiates the unscriptural RCC doctrines, the unscriptural parts to the Mass, adheres only to the scriptural RCC doctrines and only participates in the scriptural parts to the Mass then they worship Jesus in Truth. Jesus recognizes the scriptural parts to the Mass as being True.
Ah, like his father, Frankie wants to be high priest to American Presidents?
John Y., as it has been pointed out to you at various times if you were a Christian you would, Come out of the Catholic Church
Luke 12 51 "Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division; 52 for from now on five members in one household will be divided, three against two, and two against three. 53 "They will be divided, father against son, and son against father; mother against daughter, and daughter against mother; mother-in-law against daughter-in-law, and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law." Matthew 10 37 "He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. 38 "And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.---NASB
Apparently it is profitable for you to stay in the Romish Church or you can't be bothered with the turmoil it will cause, but you do lack the Marks of the True Believer
Mike wrote: No offense. But why would anyone want to stay in any "church" that is teaching things,Contradictory to the Word of God? Praying to dead saints, worshiping Mary, sorry, but the catholic church, does not sound like the Church of Acts. More like the church of Corinth! Revelation 14 8And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. Flee from it's wickedness!
It is totally superfluous what church someone who is regenerate or Born Again attends as long as the church worships Jesus as God, which by the way the Catholic Church has always worshipped Jesus as God. What it states in Revelation 14 is not required for salvation because there is only one requirement for salvation and that is what it states in Romans 10:9 and John 3:16 to embrace Jesus as ones Savior and Lord. Church membership is totally superfluous to salvation because nowhere in the Bible is church membership in any church mentioned as a requirement for salvation.
Christ said we would be persecuted for His name. Franklin Graham. Is just your tipical American preacher, in it for the fame and money.. Compare American preachers, to real preachers, of the reformation who where put at the stake, for Holden to sound Biblical principles. Franklin, has too much to lose.... Psalms 101
3I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me. Prey for BOLD MEN of the faith, that are willing to lay down there life, and not give into false churches, such ad these that called on Franklin to cease..
