From our readers: Pay more attention to Franklin Graham

June 12, 2019 by Staff Writer

Pay more attention to Franklin Graham

I was somewhat disappointed but not surprised by the lack of news coverage of Franklin Graham’s Gospel proclamation at bold point E Providence. Since the time he was saved and received Jesus as his Savior and put his hand to the plow he hasn’’t turned back. He has preached the Gospel unapologetically and fearlessly throughout the world

The gospel message is this that we all are sinners. The only way we can get to heaven is by the the love and grace of God and the blood of Jesus. This may be offensive to some but it’s the message of the Bible, which means if you truly repent and believe in Jesus you will be saved. This means you have to acknowledge Jesus and do it publicly for the Bible says if you don’t acknowledge Jesus before men he will not acknowledge you before the father.

This is the reason Franklin calls the people to come forward at the end of his sermons. It’s at this point a counselor will meet with them to answer any questions they may have and to join a Bible believing church that doesn’t comprise the Bible.

Another point I would like to make is that Franklin’s message is the same as his father’s, Billy Graham. It’s based on the Bible with no apology and no compromise. Any other religion which doesn’t believe that the Bible is not the inherent and inspired word of God written by holy men as directed by the holy spirit is not Christianity. It’s religion any way you would like to make it. Jesus was very plain and outspoken that you must choose who you are to follow pick up the cross and follow him or the world with its allure and deception.

Franklin was very clear about what the Bible had to say about today’s morality. The bible plainly states that sex outside of marriage is immoral as well as homosexuality and abortion is murder and any church that denies this is not Christianity but religion anyway you would like to make it.
