In the September issue of Decision magazine, a publication of Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, Franklin Graham penned "Our Unchanging God".
He tells about a recent interview he had with British broadcaster and television personality Piers Morgan. Morgan stated that countries around the world now have less than 50% of each population who believe in God. Only 47% of Americans believe in God, the lowest that Gallup poll has ever found. Younger people is where there is the largest decline.
Morgan challenged Graham, "You should think about this a bit more. Times are changing. People are changing."
Graham responded, "God doesn't change. He's the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow." He quoted several Bible verses including Malachi 3:6, "For I am the Lord, I do not change." And Hebrews 13:8, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever."
Graham said, "Hostility toward Christianity and believers is found in virtually every segment of society -- education, politics the public square."
At the conclusion of the article, Graham wrote, "Almighty God never changes. And a God who is unchanging in holiness, faithfulness and steadfast love makes it possible for anyone, in any age, to be changed from death to life, from darkness to light, from the dominion of the devil to the dominion of God. The times, they may be changing, but thank God, He never does."
