  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Dear Friend,

Our country is in trouble like we haven’t seen in our lifetime. We have no hope, outside of God. We will not make it unless God’s people call on His Name for help.

I would like to invite you to join me, my family, and thousands of other believers in just a few short weeks for Prayer March 2020 in Washington D.C. On Saturday, Sept. 26, we will meet at noon at the Lincoln Memorial and make our way to the U.S. Capitol, praying as we go. We will stop at key locations to ask God to heal the divisions in our nation, guide our leaders, protect our religious freedoms, and pour out His Spirit on America.

Let’s come together to take a stand for Jesus Christ and show all of Washington—and the nation—that we believe in the power of prayer and need more of God in America, not less. Will you join me on Sept. 26?


FIND OUT MORE AND REGISTER------- https://prayermarch2020.com/?utm_source=bgea%2008.20.2020&utm_medium=bgemail&utm_campaign=prayer%20march&utm_content=BA209YDCE&SOURCE=BA209YDCE


... The Lord was moved by prayer for the land ...” (2 Samuel 24:25, NASB).

This is such a critical time for our nation—so much is at stake. Let’s gather in Washington, D.C., and ask the Lord to intervene.

May God bless you, and may God bless America!

Given Mr. Graham's history, it's hard to imagine this won't be a Republican rally in sheep's religious clothing. Which saddens me.

No conflict in what I said, which is my truthful opinion and was said respectfully, and the verse in my signature.

While Falwell is not Graham, this latest incident might be a wake-up call for Falwell. His ministry is finished, but he could still save his soul, and possibly that of his wife.

I don't take a lot of notice of Franklin Graham. No ill will intended, but he is not his father. Billy Graham left big shoes to fill and I don't think there is anyone in the current evangelical world who can do so.

As one example of Billy Graham's influence, he came out to Australia way back in 1959 and held a number of rallies around the country. I think that in Brisbane he used what we call the RNA showgrounds as the rally point.

The following link refers to one convert, who by his own admission came from a family who had been social security dependents even back then.

If Franklin wants to heal division in this country, he can start by not being such a Trump fanboy.

But hey, why do something that would require self-reflection on his part?
Nice, had to get your barb in. Glad my thread made your day.

Nice, had to get your barb in. Glad my thread made your day.

On the contrary, not only did it not make my day, it just stood out as another example of the hypocrisy and tone-deafness ever-present among evangelical leaders. If Graham were concerned about divisiveness, he would stop doing and saying things that are divisive. Here's a selection from his twitter feed:

The Left wants you to believe there’s not enough time for Pres.
@realDonaldTrump
to confirm a new SCOTUS Justice before his current term ends. Just more #FakeNews.
@POTUS
has 119 days left in his current term—Ruth Bader Ginsburg was confirmed in 50 days, so that’s plenty of time.

The Left has threatened to “burn it all down/burn Congress;” they’re threatening to “stack the court” so that they will have a rubber stamp for their socialist agenda. I hope Republicans & moderate Democrats in the Senate don’t balk & give in to these scare tactics.

Looking forward to being with
@ToddStarnes
today at 2PM. I hope you’ll listen in as we discuss the #PrayerMarch2020.

God has used @realDonaldTrump to save our country from the socialists. We discuss on today's show with: @LaraLeaTrump @Franklin_Graham @DavidBartonWB @LouDobbs LISTEN LIVE:

That's one strawman and two left-demonizing socialist boogeymen - and that's just from today. Franklin Graham does and says divisive things and he also fawns over the most overtly, deliberately divisive president we've had in at least a century. If he truly wants to combat divisiveness, he should stop passing the buck to prayer and start using the skills and discernment that God's given him to examine his own life and his own contribution to the problem. But maybe he doesn't want to combat divisiveness. Maybe he's merely interested in amassing power and wealth for himself.

I know a few people who work for some of his organizations doing good work in the world and they're perpetually embarrassed by him.

Unless I'm missing something, Falwell is a different person.

I can't keep these unaccomplished faint echo sons of televangelist fathers apart.
