Listen as Franklin Graham admits his number one concern is the “sin” of same-sex marriage, and suggests President Obama will go to hell for supporting it.
Asked what “concerns you most” about where America is today, Franklin Graham didn’t need time to think to answer.
“Well our country has changed so much and we’ve seen the moral decline — and that moral decline being led by the Obama administration, and championing things like same-sex marriage, which is really defiance against God,” Graham told Glenn Beck’s TheBlaze. “Same-sex marriage is a sin against God. God made us male and female, and then to say that marriage is between two men or two women, this is sin and the Obama administration is celebrating sin and they are pushing sin,” Graham insisted.
He then immediately, as he often does, claimed that he’s not trying to “bash” gays and lesbians, but rather, he “wants them to know the truth, that the lifestyle they’re living God will one day judge that. And they’ll stand before God and God will condemn that and they will spend an eternity separated from him.”
Or, as Joe.My.God. writes, “Franklin Graham says that one day President Obama and all gay people will probably spend an ‘eternity separated from God’ due to all this homo-celebrating.”
Graham also admitted in the interview with TheBlaze’s The Church Boys that “it’s true,” he is far different from his father.
Indeed he is.
While Rev. Billy Graham spewed more than his fair share of anti-gay hate, lies, and bigotry, in a 1997 “20/20” interview with ABC News’ Hugh Downs, the elder Graham denounced the attacks he saw on LGBT people.
“I think that the Bible teaches that homosexuality is a sin, but the Bible also teaches that pride is a sin, jealousy is a sin, and hate is a sin, evil thoughts are a sin. So I don’t think that homosexuality should be chosen as the overwhelming sin that we are doing today.”
