It was interesting to see Franklin Graham exonerate Jesus Christ before America and the world in his inauguration prayer.
Without a doubt this man knows the Lord Jesus Christ and is not ashamed to proclaim that; Jesus Christ is the only God and there is none other.
Very Blessed by his boldness to speak out concerning the Lord.

I didn't know that. Very nice to see. Good for Franklin Graham. It may be easier when you have the kind of public stature he has to do it but still . . . kudos to him.
Up here in the frozen north when there is public prayer of any kind the "prayer' is told not to "pray in Jesus name".
It was so ironic and almost laughable a few years ago at a national public gathering the christian speaker was told not to pray in Jesus name and he actually obeyed them.
The ironic laughable part was the column written by a well known "liberal clergyman" in our local paper castigating the pray-er and the officials. He said "I would have told them where to go".
It looks like its going to be an interesting several years. From the little I saw it looks like Trump has surrounded himself with some very pragmatic people. Well mostly anyway. He is certainly making a lot of noise about trade agreements. From a Canadian perspective that is not particularly good news.
From a purely pragmatic point of view I think I would have preferred Hilary. With her it would have given us the status quo.
Which really isn't all that bad. Whereas with Trump who knows. The best thing about Trump winning would have been the look on Hilary's face when she realized she got beat by "him" I would have loved to have seen that.
Anyway as I've said before if Christians would spend as much time praying for our leaders as we do criticizing we might actually get good gov't. Thats just a general comment by the way and not directed to anyone here.
