Franklin Graham Defends Comments On Obama's Faith TPM Livewire http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4g7qXUkbdoQ&feature=player_detailpageShe asked a question she got an answer but lets talk about anything but....... The Newsweek Article doesn't anybody care about that? Let's talk about Christians being murdered for their faith as that IS what's really happening over there and Not About Wether The President Who Said He Is A Christian and IS He Really A Christian??? Franklin is a lot nicer of a person then me when it comes to that "because" I'm starting to have my doubts not really sure as time passes on but still.... Does anybody want to take a look at what is going on towards those of another faith in The Middle East? And then again... Why not? It's News right? If it started happening here in the freedom loving U.S.A.. Would we take a look at it then? Does anybody want to talk about what's happening to religious minorities under strick Sharia Law? Or Women for that matter too? Nice green dress she is showing her arms and how long is her dress just wondering and... The reason I bring this up is.... We should really take a good look at what it is Like under a system such as that. When our liberties are in grave danger here could we talk about it then?

Here's The Article mentioned in full. http://www.thedailybeast.com/newswe...r-on-christians-in-the-muslim-world.htmlIn the U.S and Western world so far we have seen nothing as awful as that as we do cherish our freedoms to be or not to be and that is the question? What will it be over here? Then will we be able to talk about that, more? Freedom of religion and expression and Sharia Law does not seem to go well together nor does the category of being other as well. Are we still free to talk about it. The pro's and the con's and our Bill Of Rights and our Constitution. By the way it's Constitution week Life, Liberty and Freedom & do we still believe in that? http://www.constitutionday.com/

Love for the United State of America and the Blessings of Freedom Our Founding Fathers secured for us. Lots of people love being here then lets say... someplaces else except maybe for Canada. And Canada at this time seems to be more blessed then we do. But do we want to give up the Blessings of Freedom Our Founding Fathers secured for us and not Endowed by our Government but our freedoms and liberties "Endowered to Us" by "Our Creator" instead. Some people want to remove the wording "Endowed By Their Creator"..... But without that wording it becomes instead "Endowed by Our Government" in lew of "Endowed By Our Creator" when it comes to bestowing us, with those..." Unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. I don't think that is compatible with Islamic Sharia Law and what they may consider good for them doesn't mean it is good for us in lew of... Making laws to establish a religion instead of the free exercise of and prohibiting the free exercise of as some countries do just that and look what happens over there when that happens. Do we want that to rule the day in lew of this? Amendment I Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. The Freedom of Speech is the Freedom to talk about it to talk about the issues of today. It use to not be an issue in the U.S but it is now. So people need to decide what they want to do with this. What kind of a country they want to live in because free speech is never really free without speaking.

I just don't know anymore. I hope this is not true but I just don't know. Obama: Making of Muslim Mahdi, Antichrist? hottamale02 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gha4_c3uvyQ&feature=related I Thank God for Reverend Martin Luther King for Steve Harvey for Donnie McClurkin all my brothers and sisters in Christ as Our God created everybody and Forgiveness is what Jesus did for us. All of us. This world is unjust and has been unjust and people of all colors have fought for justice and what is right. Even women have been mistreated in the past and in history but that is not what Jesus teaches as he uplifted women at that time in history in a Patriarchy society. Jesus died for injustice because He was innocent sinless and the Punishment that He took for us was unjust. It was unfair but in Jesus's world we were created in all colors shapes and sizes and as one. As one Adam female and male and women have had to overcome and deal with life's unfairness as well. But we still love Jesus and strive for what is just and Jesus said if we do not forgive God will not forgive us. Matthew 6:15 But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. Father forgive them Jesus said for they know not what they do. On the Cross in deep pain it touches lots of people hearts what He suffered yet.. Forgiveness can be a process in life for us and it is not always easy to do but prolonged hatred is far worse. Internal suffering is far worse and if the world could only love like Jesus... But we know that Satan is the ruler of this system that's why Jesus had to give up his life as a sacrifice for all of us. Thank God that their are those that have forgave and if no female ever forgave in an imperfect world.... Nobody would get married. Ever.... We all fall short of the glory of God we all do. But everybody eventually has to forgive somebody as we are that imperfect. And God knows it!

Just in looking at the rise and fall of King Solomon. The Wisdom of Solomon yet it became madness and folly as even the wisest of humans can fall short of the glory of God we all do. vanity of vanities. Then I looked on all the works that my hands had worked, and on the labor that I had labored to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.
Ecclesiastes 2:11 Because we gain nothing we are like dust in the wind without Our Creator without Our God! Solomon had it all and found it to be fleeting to be meaningless to be as nothing in the long run. James 4:14
Whereas you know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appears for a little time, and then vanishes away. Isaiah 2:22
Cease you from man, whose breath is in his nostrils: for wherein is he to be accounted of ? Our lives have no real meaning without God. Even Wise King Solomon saw it as all vanity without God. It's just all us and what are we? Without a Creator without Our God! It's all meaningless vanity. Hitler, Stalin, Mao all vanity all vapor all dust and all they did in life was meaningless as it did not last there vanity was fleeting they are all gone. wherein is he to be accounted of ? Where are they to be accounted of now. Will they stand before a righteous God for their crimes in life. Fot the gift of God's free will that they shunned. Maybe that is why Jesus said to forgive because.. For we know him that has said, Vengeance belongs to me, I will recompense, said the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
Hebrews 10:30 We want justice for what they did now.... But, as we are imperfect sinners too.. Aren't we glad that Jesus can forgive us and as for Hitler, Stalin, Mao they will have their day in court as well. For what they have done but it is never easy living in a world system such as this. Not easy at all I think God wants us to know that and compare it to what God has to offer us. If we choose to except the gift and believe on Him.. He promises a much better place a much better world under God's future plans for us. Wish it was now too...

Do not let his dream die there is so much injustice in this world and lets talk about the Christians being killed for their faith, lets talk about the newsweek article. It's only through Christ we are truly free and let freedom truly ring with what is right. Jesus gave His life for a just cause and so did he. And it's through their sacrifices that has truly impacted the world as Jesus said... Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
John 15:13 Martin Luther King - I Have A Dream Speech - August 28, 1963 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smEqnnklfYsWe wish there was another way but to change hearts... That is so true that is what we remember that is what has made a big impact on the world. Even though we wish there was another way in this fallen world of now but how to change hearts thats the hope. Jesus/Yeshua gave His life to change the world to give us hope. For a much better world to come.

-  I listened to the entire interview with Franklin Graham and the Newscaster. As always she was trying to get him to say things, THAT HE NEVER SAID! Franklin Graham is a godly man and does not lie. She was rude to him, and I find that uncalled for. She kept prying him to say that Obama is not a Christian. He never gave in. Frankline KNOWS how the News Casters twist words. Franklin repeatedly said, "I never said Obama is not a Christian. Only God knows his heart. He is absolutely wrong in promoting 'abortion'. That is wrong and against Holy Scriptures." Franklin went on to say, "I like Obama, he seems to be a nice man. But this moral issue of abortion is against God. Everybody will have to stand before God to give an account of his life, and I CAN NOT and WILL NOT vote for this man who promotes killing babies. Whether or not he is,(says) he is a Christian, is between him and Almighty God." ------ Quite frankly, Lynn, I do NOT think this kind of gossip and heresy should be posted on any website. People can see and hear the news. On this 'Bible Forum', should we not be giving out the Truth of our Holy and Righteous God? To the Word, we are told, "You will know a Christian by his fruit." FRUIT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS! Obama has NONE!
Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]

Hi Abigail, (((( Smiles )))) That is so true! I listened to the entire interview with Franklin Graham and the Newscaster. As always she was trying to get him to say things, THAT HE NEVER SAID! Franklin Graham is a godly man and does not lie. She was rude to him, and I find that uncalled for. Not everybody is seeing and hearing the news these days but are being spoon feed instead by the media that Islam is a religion of peace and peaceful co-existence with all. I'm all for people getting along together in this world but even the ACLJ and lots of Ministries are pointing out to others take a good look at what is happening to Christians and other people of different beliefs in that part of the world. It should matter to Franklin Graham and us of course even if it is not happening now but a possible coming reality in the U.S.A and the Western world of the conflicts going on now. This is not an issue that is going away and will be more and more of an issue in America to come. Lots of people may not have seen that interview and may have never seen that interview if not for YouTube. People need to see what is going on in this world and that interview exposed it very well. This is what is happening there and we should all care and take note of what is going on because this will soon effect us all. Even Franklin Graham see's that. Expose it for what it is right now. That was the issue in Newsweek and even more so now.

To Forgive The Unforgivable!  I Thank God for Reverend Martin Luther King for Steve Harvey for Donnie McClurkin all my brothers and sisters in Christ as Our God created everybody and Forgiveness is what Jesus did for us! He forgave the unforgivable and what Jesus did stands out in History as we didn't deserve it. Reverend Martin Luther King had every good reason to hate those who persecuted his brothers and sister but because of the road he took he stands out in history. Even if one may not agree with all this man's political views in this video just the fact that he found a way to overcame his anger and he did it through Jesus Christ is a powerful testimony. Forgiveness is not an easy thing to do especially when someone has been really hurt bad but this man is right that anger can hold one back in life. We are all a part of God's Creation and we are all one in Christ. Reverand Martin Luther King said "I have a dream"... and that people of all color could come together and elect the first black American President is most likely a part of that dream. Though not every person of Faith may agree with his views and not all do or will vote for him. But 'Jesus/Yeshua trancendes all in history lots of people come together through Christ Jesus! And lots of people like Pat Boone too! Bev Hills Tea Party- Jesse Lee Peterson, Pat Boone Finale http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrgV9vBXmRw&feature=bf_prev&list=PLEB4DEA89683852A5

Only Jesus Christ and He alone will bring about real peace, real security and genuine prosperity. Jesus said..
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you: not as the world gives, give I to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
John 14:27 Jesus new in this world there would be injustice and wars and no real peace but through Him... Healing can come for those who seek a deeper and closer relationship with Jesus Christ our Lord!
