Franklin Graham is blaming President Barack Obama for what he believes is the coming storm of persecution of Christians.
Franklin Graham, the less charismatic, less optimistic, and less well-known son of famed preacher Billy Graham, has a message for Christians in America: You’re being persecuted, it’s going to get a lot worse, and President Barack Obama is to blame.
Why?
Speaking with Gordon Robertson, son of the famous televangelist Pat Robertson, Franklin Graham shared his deeply held beliefs about the President in a CBN interview published Monday (video above.)
“We’re going to see persecution, I believe, in this country because our president is very sympathetic to Islam and the reason I say that, Gordon, is because his father was a Muslim, gave him a Muslim name, Barack Hussein Obama,” Graham said. “His mother married another Muslim man, they moved to Indonesia, he went to Indonesian schools. So, growing up his frame of reference and his influence as a young man was Islam. It wasn’t Christianity, it was Islam.”
President Obama has elevate Muslims into the White House, Graham warns, and that is how he is being “influenced.”Â
“There are Muslims that have access to him in the White House. Our foreign policy has a lot of influence now, from Muslims. We see the Prime Minister of Israel being snubbed by the President and by the White House and by the Democrats and it’s because of the influence of Islam. They hate Israel and they hate Christians, and so the storm is coming I believe Gordon.”
That “storm” will target Christians, Graham claims.
“What’s happened is you now have radical Islamists who are advising various levels of government and it’s going to get worse and nobody seems to be alarmed about it. Nobody is saying anything about this and we as Christians are going to lose.”
Right Wing Watch notes Graham “can’t name a single one” of the Muslims influencing the President.
