Franklin Graham: Trump Victory the Biggest Political Upset in Our Lifetime
Evangelist Franklin Graham says the Donald Trump/Mike Pence victory is the biggest political upset in our lifetimes.
He joined with dozens of evangelical leaders congratulating the pair, but offered these words of wisdom for the American people.
“This election has been long, it’s been tough, and it’s been divisive. It’s time to put that behind us. Now is the time to come together in unity and work together. Our nation has so many problems that need fixing. Even more important are the spiritual needs of our country. Whether we are rich or poor, without Jesus Christ we are the most desperately in need, the poorest of the poor. We cannot ignore His hand and His supreme authority,” he says.
Graham continued: “One thing is for sure, we need to pray for our new president, vice president, and our other leaders every day—whether we agree with them or not. They need God’s help and direction. It is my prayer that we will truly be ‘one nation under God.’ Will you commit with me to pray for them every day?”
