Many of the 1.7 million people who like Franklin Graham’s Facebook page are giving a big thumbs-up to his reaction to the Supreme Court’s same-sex marriage decision. That message was posted by the head of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association shortly after the high court ruled 5-4 that same-sex couples have a nationwide right to marry, no matter what individual states or their residents might say.

As of this writing, more than 130,000 people have liked Graham’s statement, which reads in part: “With all due respect to the court, it did not define marriage, and therefore is not entitled to re-define it.” And the number of Facebook likes for the pastor’s reaction is growing rapidly.

Graham’s assessment of the country’s standing in the eyes of God is rather pessimistic, as he tells his Facebook friends: “I pray God will spare America from His judgment, though, by our actions as a nation, we give Him less and less reason to do so.”

The entirety of Franklin Graham’s popular — and certainly for many advocates of same-sex marriage, provocative — post on Facebook is shown below.

Just yesterday, possibly in anticipation of the Supreme Court decision on same-sex marriage as a constitutional right nationwide, the Rev. Graham commented on the White House event President Obama hosted for LGBT activists earlier this week. Graham told his Facebook audience that the shift in attitudes about so-called ‘gay rights’ exhibited by Americans in recent years represents a dangerous “moral decline” and an acceptance of “sin as something to be proud of.”

That Facebook post has also generated tremendous response, with close to 155,000 likes, nearly 50,000 shares, and more than 18,000 comments. You can read Franklin Graham’s Thursday message on ‘gay rights’ below.

  1. America has become Babylon. That’s why Semiramis, queen of Babylon stands in New York harbor.

  2. “ANY UNJUST LAW, IS A HUMAN LAW THAT IS ‘NOT’ ROOTED IN ETERNAL AND NATURAL LAW” GOD WILL NOT BE MOCKED, BUT IN HIS TIME, NOT OUR’S.

  3. God is already judging America. California is having the worst draught in 1200 years starting in 2011 when states started legalizing same-sex marriage. Other Western states like Colorado and Texas have droughts. California only has one year of water left. Before the supreme court decision, 38 states say gay marriage is legal. The drought affects more than California since 40% of America’s food is grown in California and food prices have started going up. Now It will get real interesting as fire season starts in California and there is no water to put out forest fires right after the Supreme Court forces gay marriage on the remaining states. Don’t you think God has cut off our water in the like He did for Israel in the days of Elijah when they were sinning against Him?

    • God showed this to me in a dream 7 years ago, in the spring of 2008! I saw an angel out over the eastern sky above the Atlantic, he blew a trumpet loudly, and then pointed to the United States, I watched great flooding take place in one part of the country, and severe drought take place in another part! Then I saw Christians gathered in underground churches praying, and listening to battery operated radios, they were praying and waiting for the Lord’s instruction. I knew judgement had come to our homeland!!

  4. There’s only one flaw in that thought, the guy he’s referring to, is not even real.

  5. Samuel J. Heffner

    I stand firmly with Franklin Graham in commending the high court for this wrongful decision against God and every man-woman marriage.

  6. Franklin Graham is right in his assessment!!!! We now have the opportunity to respond with prayer and fasting that God will heal our Land and that we live out the word in Romans 13:8

  7. Thanks for the good read. In times like these, I cherish those standing firm on God’s word against the title wave of the bullying masses. They hated Christ first, and hate Him through us. It is an honor to be part of Christ’s body.

    • The religious leaders of His day hated Christ because he was loving sinners and eating with them and hanging out with them. They didn’t hate Him because he was standing up for the Ten Commandments.

  8. JANIE REIFSTECK

    Pray God is merciful to those who live under such evil leaders

  9. Let’s remember, Jesus did not come to deal with the rulers of His day. He did not try to change the minds of the government. He knew they were a mess. He came to love the people, to reveal His father’s heart for them. He didn’t reveal their sin to them, he showed them His love. He didn’t point fingers and tell people they were sinning and better stop or God would judge them. He loved them right as they were, because He loved them. Love. God is love. Love changes people, not judgment.

  10. God and God alone can create life and and die to cleanse us from all our sins by HIs precious blood thank you lord JESUS for loving us and forgiving us to show your love for us love you amen
