    Franklin Graham: Only God Can Save Us From Socialists & Communists

    Franklin Graham announced on the Todd Starnes Radio Show that he is calling for a national prayer march in Washington, D.C.
    Graham, the president of Samaritan’s Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, said our national lawmakers need to see the presence of the church in Washington.

    “Our country is deteriorating,” Graham told Starnes. “We are in a nose dive. If God doesn’t save us, there is no hope.”

    The march is scheduled to begin at 12:00 p.m. on September 26, less than two months before the presidential election.

    There will not be any speeches or musicians — only prayer, Graham said.

    Great to talk to @ToddStarnes & share about the #2020PrayerMarch taking place Sept. 26 in Washington DC. I’m asking people to join me & march for our country, praying as we go from the Lincoln Memorial to the Capitol Building, that God would heal America. https://t.co/NrJsfjg9BW

    “The only hope for this nation is not President Trump — is not a politician. The only hope for this country is God,” he said.
    Graham told Starnes that he is especially concerned about the rise of socialism in America

    “It’s incredible what the socialists are doing in this country,” he said. “The power that they have. Socialism is a precursor to communism.”
    He pointed to recent decisions in California that effectively shut down churches and banned Christian traditions like singing hymns and reciting The Lord’s Prayer.

    This is what the communists did in eastern Europe, Graham warned.

    “They shut the churches down. They didn’t want the pastors voice,” he said. “Anybody that’s a threat – you shut them down.”

    The globally-respected evangelist also reminded Starnes that thousands of pastors and priests across eastern Europe and in the Soviet Union were slaughtered in the name of Communism.

    “It’s important for the church’s voice to be heard,” he said. “The politicians are going to have to see the church in a big way. Otherwise they will never respect and they will shut us up and shut us down.”

    As God's prophet Joel tells us... after GOD sends his locust army against His own people... GOD will remove the locust army and restore.


    Blow the trumpet in Zion; sound the alarm on My holy hill. Let all who live in the land tremble, for the day of the LORD is coming. It is close at hand - a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness. Like dawn spreading across the mountains a large and mighty army comes, such as never was in ancient times nor ever will be in ages to come....

    ... The LORD thunders at the head of His army; His forces are beyond number, and mighty is the army that obeys His command. The day of the LORD is great; it is dreadful. Who can endure it? "Even now," declares the LORD, "return to Me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning."

    Joel 2

    See related topic below. The ROCOR was previously called the Russian Orthodox Church in Exile. It has been headquartered in New York since it moved there after WW2.

    Hmn, appears to be a lack of conviction and I don't know that anyone has ever been able to "hope" their way out of a terminal condition.


    The march is scheduled to begin at 12:00 p.m. on September 26, less than two months before the presidential election.

    There are a number of groups running about who began unannounced and who have amassed a considerable toll ... did Christ set and maintain a schedule?

    There will not be any speeches or musicians — only prayer, Graham said.

    Too few, too little, too late ... you're grandstanding.

    There is a theme here, apparently it's bit difficult to see ... WEE the Peepses have and continue to allow such!!!

    I'm guessing God may want some action on our part.
    Plato once said, “Wise men speak because they have something to say. Fools, because they have to say something.”

    "Fere libenter homines id quod volunt credunt." "Men willingly believe what they wish to believe."

    I don't think a lot of Christians are prepared for what that will look like.

    Yes I agree,trouble is we have too many people who talk tough and don't follow it with action.

    It is quite evident to me that we are going to see levels of violence not seen since the Civil War as well as Maoist style mass murder

    They swore, if we gave them our weapons, that the wars of the tribes would cease.

    I agree. If the United States (New York City in particular) is MYSTERY BABYLON THE GREAT, then we can expect the slaughter of Christians. See Revelation chapters 17 and 18.

    Very few preachers are warning the people about what is coming and the need for repentance. Few have made a connection between the virus and the possibility that this is the beginning of God's judgment of America.

    At least thirteen times the prophet Jeremiah warned the people of Judah that God was going to send sword, famine and pestilence.The first of those warnings is found in Jeremiah chapter 14, verses 10-12. We have pestilence. The sword has been unsheathed in the cities. Famine is coming as food banks are running out of food and complete economic collapse is fast approaching. Some, but very few preachers are warning people about these things.

    Pray one for another.
