Franklin Graham, Evangelicals Join Pro-LGBTQ Activist, Anti-Trinitarian for "Christian Concert"

Sunday night, several prominent Evangelicals and Christian bands joined together with a host of false teachers and charismatic in a show of "unity" for the Hope Rising online concert. Among them were the well-known and respected Evangelist, Franklin Graham, along with a handful of somewhat respected modern contemporary Christian bands such as Casting Crowns who teamed up with several hopelessly lost false teachers.

Of the worst of them were not only anti-Trinitarian T.D. Jakes and serial blasphemers like Cody Carnes and Kirk Franklin, but also the pro-LGBTQ gay activist, Kristin Chenoweth. Chenoweth has been dubbed a "longtime ally of the LGBTQ community" by GLAAD and other pro-gay groups.

GLAAD reports that during an emotionally-charged acceptance speech for a GLAAD entertainment award, Chenoweth said, "I want to encourage many people of all faiths to come forward and stand with me, even if you don't believe in Jesus the way I do. He did teach love. Not just tolerance, but acceptance."

That Franklin Graham and others would think that it is in any way acceptable to put their name and seal of endorsement on the same event as these wicked deceivers is unfathomable. Graham, who is revered as one of the world's most notable evangelists has a serious problem with compromising the gospel to promote his version of ecumenical unity.

What accord do believers have with unbelievers? What accord does light have with darkness? This is the rhetorical refrain of Paul in 2 Corinthians 6. The answer is none. Is Graham a believer? We are not called to stand in unity with these people, we are called to purge these people from among us (1 Corinthians 5:13).
