Charlie Kirk was scheduled on September 11 to keynote the opening night of our conference, “His Truth Is Marching On.” His message, consistent with the conference theme, would have been that we’re in a war for America, and our side of that war is not being fought with bullets but with ideas and evangelism.
I argue his tragic murder is no different than the stoning of the first Christian martyr, Stephen, recorded in the Bible in Acts 7. Stephen openly challenged the religious system of his day, successfully proving that Jesus was indeed the Jewish Messiah.
The scribes and Pharisees could not overcome his arguments, so they killed him.
Likewise, Charlie Kirk was a defender of biblical truth and very successfully argued against the “wokeness” and insanity of the modern left. They couldn’t out-argue him, so they killed him.
And it wasn’t a single gunman who fired the shot. The liberal media have been characterizing anyone who disagrees with their new religion as Hitler and a fascist. They are just as guilty as Saul, who held the cloaks of those who stoned Stephen to death. They may not have pulled the trigger, but they armed the gunman with hate that removed the safety and allowed the weapon to be fired.
This new religion calls all evil good and all good evil (Is. 5:20). It is the exact thing Jesus spoke of in John 3:19–20, where He said, “Men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” Many will relegate Charlie’s murder to being a political assassination, but this was pure evil fighting against good. Just as Jesus said, everyone who does evil hates the light because it exposes their evil deeds.
