Franklin Graham: Jesus Wants You To Get Vaccinated

“When Jesus started his ministry, he went about preaching and he used his power as the Son of God to bring healing to people’s bodies.

“And he didn’t do it so they’d have a better life. He did it so they’d put their faith and trust in him as the son of God.

“And as a Christian, I think it’s important that we model our ministry after that of Jesus Christ.

“We want to try to bring healing to people’s bodies, and we can do that through modern medicine. I thank God for the vaccine.” – Franklin Graham, last night on CNN.

Graham is repeating his plea on CNN this morning, tell host Brianna Keilar that members of his staff have been “very sick” and on ventilators. “I’m pro-life and I want to save lives,” he told her.

Keilar responded by playing clips of prominent COVID-denying evangelicals, prompting Graham to dismiss them as “representing a very small part of the Christian base.”

45% of white evangelicals say they will not get vaccinated. Rev. Franklin Graham goes on CNN to plead with them to get the shots. Said he will also speak to Trump and ask him to urge all his supporters to get vaccinated. pic.twitter.com/sdzdPlPWl7
