‘Stay in the Scriptures’: Franklin Graham’s prescription for Christians post-midterms

Democrats have been giddy with glee over the past two weeks since they took dozens of contested seats away from Republicans in the midterm elections.

That party will have the majority in Congress come January, and in many state power structures as well.

They are promising coming years of investigations, prosecutions and jail for Republicans. And they also are promising new socialist campaigns and Islam-promoting agendas.

That’s because it wasn’t just Democrats that coalesced against Republicans and conservatives. Their helpers were LGBT activists, socialists promoting communism and more.

So what is the role of America’s Christian churches and Christian members going forward?

Samaritan’s Purse chief Franklin Graham offered the details.

He was interviewed by Erick Stakelback, and posted it online:


His comments included a reminder that, “The church needs to stay in the Scriptures, believe the Scriptures.”

He charged there are, “some politicians who are misquoting Scripture, and are twisting Scripture to go after their own political agenda. Many Christians have fallen for it.”

He said there has to be consideration of what they’re actually saying. “You’ve got to look at what they’re saying and judge what they’re saying, and you judge it by holding it up against the Word of God.”

He warned about the socialists, who also often share the Islamist ideology, “The socialists want to take away our voice. The socialists do not want us to preach. They do not want us to share our faith in Christ. And if they get the majority at some point they will shut us down. That’s for sure. They’ve done that in every country around the world where they took power.”

He pointed out that, “Socialism turns into communist and it is going to be very strict controls at that point.”

But for now there remains freedom.

“We don’t need to be afraid or intimidated by them. We love them. We just share the truth that Jesus Christ is God’s Son. He is the Way, the Truth and the Life. There is no other way to God except through Christ.”

He said the key is repentance, for those who want to follow Jesus, to exhibit a “life change.”

He warned, “We have a lot of challenges in front of us. Our country’s gonna change. It’s not going to change for the better.”

He said those elements rising from the midterms, “If we’re willing to speak up and take a few shots” will come after Christians.

Those statements will trigger threats and name-calling, he said.

And ultimately, he said, he expects that alliance of Democrats, socialists, Muslims and LGBT activists to fall.

When they get power, he said, “they’ll turn on each other.”
