Franklin Graham: Pray for America — and vote
-
The Washington Times - Sunday, November 6, 2016
Evangelist Franklin Graham
is calling for a “Christian revolution” and has issued a formal request
to the nation to pray for America as Election Day looms.
“I am not telling anyone who to vote for. God
can do that. But God’s people have a responsibility to pray for the
nation and to vote,” Mr. Graham says in an open letter. “The media want
you to think the current presidential election is about personality —
but it’s not. The biggest impact this election will have on our nation
will involve who the next president appoints to fill vacancies on the
Supreme Court. This will affect the course of America for decades to
come.”
On Monday night, Mr. Graham will pray live for this cause on his Facebook page at 9 p.m. ET
“We
need a Christian revolution in America. Let’s support men and women at
every level of government — local, state, and national — who will lead
this country back to really being one nation under God, so that we can
truthfully say, once again, in God we trust,” Mr. Graham says, adding
that an estimated 20-30 million Christians did not vote in the 2012
election. “We can’t let this happen again. The future of our nation is
riding on this election: religious freedom, the Supreme Court,
protecting the unborn and our families, and so much more. The Christian
voice needs to be heard on November 8.”
