The Rev. Franklin Graham was among those who took issue with Biden's comments, with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association president calling abortion a "sin" and likening it to "murder."

"Biden said that the right to an abortion comes from being a 'child of God.' Mr. President, that is just not true," Graham tweeted. "Being a child of God does not give you the right to take the lives of the innocent. Abortion is a sin—simply put, it's murder."

Biden made his controversial remarks Wednesday while lambasting a draft Supreme Court opinion indicating the justices could overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 case that ushered in nationalized abortion protections.

"As I said when this hit...this is about a lot more than abortion," [Biden] said. "I hadn't read the whole opinion at that time."

Biden then spoke about the origination of rights, stating such liberties don't come from the government but originate as a result of being a "child of God"... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
