FRANKLIN GRAHAM BELIEVES PREACHING THE GOSPEL WILL SOON BECOME HATE SPEECH


Rev. Franklin Graham believes that preaching the Gospel will be considered hate speech in his lifetime.

  1. Franklin Graham said specifically that he could see a time when public statements about what the Bible says regarding homosexuality, abortion and other moral issues will be banned by “politically correct cultures,” and when preachers could be imprisoned for following the teachings of the Bible.

    I do belive that New York City ordered a public billboard taken down on grounds it was hate speech -- the text of the billboard was a scripture verse about homosexuality.

    And in Sweden, I believe it was, or Finland, pastors have in fact been arrested by government authorities for the crime of hate speech because they preached from Scripture about homosexuality.
