Franklin Graham On The Doomsday Clock: Dont Blame Trump, Blame Yourself For Not Loving Jesus Enough

“According to a group of scientists, the ‘Doomsday Clock’ has moved 30 seconds closer to midnight! What are they blaming? President Donald J. Trump’s comments on nuclear weapons and climate change. Wow. If you want to look for a real sign of the end of time as we know it, here’s something God’s Word says you can look for: ‘in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power’ (2 Tim. 3:1-5).

“That sounds eerily familiar doesn’t it? It describes so much of our society today. I agree with the clock on one thing—I believe our time is short. But it will only be ‘Doomsday’ for those who haven’t accepted God’s gift of salvation through faith in His Son Jesus Christ. Your eternity can be secure with Him. Are you ready?” – Franklin Graham, writing this morning on his Facebook page.

If Jesus existed, he more resembled the people currently being prohibited from entering the country.

If you speak for him, then I don't trust your Jesus at all. If you speak to him, please ask him to do something to fix this situation.

The reality is that your Jesus is a figment of the imagination. People call on Jesus to justify all sorts of ugly crap. I think your Jesus doesn't actually exist. He's just a wish that supports whatever anyone wants.

Now, STFU Graham, you pus-filled moronic carbuncle on the ass of the world! There's a good lad.

But I don't think people like Graham will be in heaven. The hate in their hearts is a big disqualifier.

That the scripture he quotes is a direct reflection of Donald J Trump and, dare I say, half the damn evangelical movement in America. Franklin Graham is a hypocrite and a grifter with daddy issues. I feel sorry for anyone who would look to him for any type of spiritual inspiration. He's a fraud who has latched on to the GOP and his fathers legacy in the name of money and fame, Jesus be damned.

This clown is the quasi-official state chaplain, or court priest, or national Jesus psychic, or whatever. We need a president with the balls to do what the real Jesus was supposed to have done, and drive these money changers out of the temple of government.

It was addressed to the previous occupant. It was asking for money and blabbering on about praying for my soul. I looked the dude up and sure enough - trump supporter.

Just like amway (scamway) these people are grifters.

that Jesus is so weak, so emasculated, so powerless he is forced to depend on a mortal like Franklin to do his bidding
