Billy Graham Warns US Churches on Persecution; States Immunity to Persecution in US Is Unusual

The Rev. Billy Graham has issued a written warning to America's churches: "Prepare for persecution," the Christian Post website reports today (October 30, 2015).

The renowned preacher and founder of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association penned a commentary that was posted on his website and is slated to appear in the November edition of Decision magazine.

In the magazine, Graham notes that the American church has been largely unfamiliar with persecution, writing that this "immunity to persecution that Christians in our country have experienced in the past two or three centuries is unusual."

Graham went on to list "five ways to fortify yourself so that you will be able to stand that day." These include: Making sure of one's relationship to God; walking with God; regularly reading Scripture; praying always; and meditating on Christ.
