Franklin Graham has not passed away and remains political.

with regard to Franklin Graham. I had posted on one of our recent threads how, well, appalled I was to see him standing with Trump during a presser while Trump was bold face lying about the Fed response to victims of Hurricane Helene and claiming that he himself had brought forms of relief to the area. So far as I know, all of those claims (including Trump's alleged aid) are patently false.

Franklin Graham, whom I personally would expect to discern what Trump is about seems blinded to the false information (lies) that Trump spouts as well as Trump's lack of character and absence of repentance is really a disappointment to me. I'm not entirely certain what draws Franklin Graham to Trump, but I think it's clouded his judgement and ability to discern. I see no Biblical parallels to support his acceptance and support of Trump as a leader of any kind.

I have nothing but respect for Samaritan's Purse and the organization's extensive response to disaster--its ability to show up. If you aren't sure what Samaritan's Purse is or its track record you can learn about it here: https://www.samaritanspurse.org/disaste ... f5EALw_wcB.

Find out what they are doing and also, look into its response to the Covid crisis in New York. I think you'll be impressed by what you see and the truth is that during Covid you probably already saw it in passing while watching news coverage.

But Franklin Graham's affiliation with Trump is something that simply puzzles me. Samaritan's Purse must surely be sitting on tons of money from regular folk and high powered donors. Perhaps Graham and Trump have some connections in common. I wouldn't know. I just do know that his support seems so out of place to me.

I wouldn't want to see the reputation of Samaritan's Purse to be damaged by the relationship or his public support of Trump.

"Church Resourcing
Samaritan’s Purse is working to bring people to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ through programs that share the Gospel and help believers grow in their faith. Our projects include evangelistic training, bibles & Christian literature and church building."

How do they treat people in other faiths who have no interest in Christianity?

Franklin Graham speaks out against Islam. The NAACP chastised Graham for trying to paint President Obama as a Muslim. Some more cynical penguins might view Graham as a hard and fast preacher with a love of money, drawing huge full-time salaries from both the Samaritans and the Billy Graham Foundation. They would point to the many things he has said as proof. Not me. I see him as an entrepreneur.

In what regard, hauslern? Are you asking if they deny relief aid to non-Christian victims? If not...what are you asking exactly?

Then don't label that list as "What Nancy Murphy thinks."

I saw an interview where Piers Morgan questioned him as to whether he would allow a daughter of his who was raped by an immigrant to have an abortion.

Umm, you forgot to tell us what his response was.

I’m fairly certain his response would be to have the baby, and not terminate the pregnancy.
