Rev. Franklin Graham
Rev. Franklin Graham's Easter morning message took a more warning than uplifting tone, as he preached about the dangers of political correctness and the policy shifts in America that have led to a cultural tone of "anti-Christian bias," he said,.
Initially, he spoke about the issues faced by Christians in other nations to openly worship Jesus Christ.

"Untold millions of Christians around the world are celebrating the resurrection of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ," he said, the Christian Post reported. "And millions in many countries risk their freedom and their very lives to worship Him and claim His name. Even under the threat of imprisonment they faithfully follow."

He then referenced the "murderous hand" of ISIS and the recent brutal killings of 148 Christians "in cold blood," and warned of what's going on in America in terms of religious tolerance for Christians.
"Even in America there has recently grown an ugly, anti-Christian bias and intolerance that is changing our nation from the inside out, opening doors for all kinds of discrimination and loss of religious freedom that we hear about daily in the news," he said, the Christian Post reported.

This isn't the first time Graham has warned about the perils of Christian-bashing in America. In a previous interview on CBN's "The 700 Club," he outright pointed to President Obama and key Democrats for leading American down what he characterized as this path of danger.
He also faulted Obama for "snubb[ing]" Israel's prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and the Democrats, for following that White House lead.
"They hate Israel," he said, during his previous CBN interview. "They hate Christians, and so the storm is coming I believe."
