Graham Warns Students Against Anti-Christ

In a chapel service at John Brown University in Arkansas this week, Franklin Graham warned students that “the spirit of the anti-Christ is everywhere” and that persecution may take place as they preach the Gospel. In an article in The Christian Post, Graham also lamented that public prayer to Christ is unacceptable while prayer to “Buddha and the name of Muhammad” was allowed. He also expressed sadness over the handling of the memorial for the Tucson shooting victims, where an Indian man called upon the name of “father sky and mother earth.”  “There was no call for God to put his loving arms around those who were hurting,” he said. “Anything that has to do with Christian faith is slowly being taken out of society.” The Christian Post also reported that Graham recently returned from a trip to Haiti, where he spoke at the National Soccer Stadium in Port-au-Prince and hundreds came forward to accept Christ. But Graham said good works mean nothing when ministers “fail to prepare a person to stand before eternity” and asked students to “take every opportunity to tell a person about Jesus.” He said he’d like to “build an army of young people” to “infiltrate every language of the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.”
