Franklin Graham: Islamic Storm Coming against West
Wednesday, February 18, 2015
Franklin Graham is warning that a storm of Islamic persecution is coming against Christians in the West.
The founder of Samaritan's Purse wrote a message on Facebook after ISIS terrorists beheaded 21 Christians in Libya.
Graham asks why there hasn't been global condemnation from Muslim leaders.
"Can you imagine the outcry if 21 Muslims had been beheaded by Christians?" he wrote.
The Islamic terrorists released a video of their atrocity against the Christians, with a headline that read: "A Message Signed with Blood to the Nation of the Cross."
Graham says, "We'd better take this warning seriously as these acts of terror will only spread throughout Europe and the United States.... the storm is coming."
Other Christian leaders are also speaking out, saying the world must stand up to repudiate the ISIS massacre and the terrorist targeting of Christians.
Dr. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference, is specifically calling out President Barack Obama to do more.
"We call upon the president of the United States of America and Congress to specifically address the persecution of Christians by ISIS, Islamic totalitarianism and regimes in the Middle East, and call upon the United Nations to convene a summit on Christian persecution around the world," Rodriguez stated in a press release.
He's also calling for a moment of silence Sunday to honor the beheaded Egyptian Christians and their grieving families.
