    Franklin Graham says Trump ‘stands with truth’ – Baptist News Global

    The day before, Graham offered the invocation at Trump’s inaugural ceremony and inserted his own political commentary that God had spared Trump from an assassin’s bullet in order to Make America Great Again.

    “And then to have all your sins, you know, put out in front of the whole world to see and, you know, the embarrassment and so forth, and look what God did when that bullet went past or through his ear and passed his head within a millimeter. He could have had his brains blown out across that field.

    “I think at that moment I think God got his attention and I think it’s changed him a little bit,” Graham said of Trump. “I see a difference in President Trump. There’s just a different tone right now.”

    You literally have no idea what Jesus said in that sermon do you?

    You also are now misquoting another verse.

    Dont pretend this is about faith for you. This is about Trump.

    I literally am not judging Trump. His fruit shows his faith. The Bible says to use someones spiritual fruits as a litmus test to their true self.

    (I see you are Ignoring that scripture.)

    Verses on "judging" are taken in isolation with no context. Its a known thing in Christian circles.

    Jesus gave a very lengthy sermon outlining the rights and wrongs of being a believer. He spent just one verse talking about judging.. it was a drop in the bucket.

    Oh. You like Graham now? Did you like him when he told people to get vaccinated?

    He also called out the people who stormed the Capitol on Jan 6.

    Look my own father, one of the kindest most charitable men alive, voted for Trump. I disagree with him. Good people feel different than I do. This isnt news to anybody.

    Have you experienced a conversion? I believe you have claimed to not be a believer, but you just " share values" correct?

    I've always like Graham, don't always agree with him. I like you also just don't agree with you on some things. I also was and still am against any of those who attacked cops or vandalized our capital, I bet with a little research you'll find that I've said that before.
    My dad didn't vote for Trump in 2020 but did this time

    Is it now? You'll then have a difficult time explaining why an overwhelming majority of Christians voted for Donald Trump.

    I'm talking about the misused scripture about judging. It's a known thing that people isolate that verse but would be shocked to read the entire sermon it is spoken in.

    Are you willing to edify those of us who seemingly misunderstand Matthew 7. Thanks in advance.
