“I Forgive Him”

Like many across the country, I have struggled to find words of comfort, words of wisdom and reason behind Charlie Kirk’s assassination. I have wept in private, my heart breaking for this young man’s widow and two babies. I have sat stunned, unable to even pray, knowing fully well that Charlie Kirk knew what he was doing would probably be the death of him, and it was. I was shocked but not surprised, to tell you the truth, because I hear of Christians being killed, yes martyred by the hundreds on the African continent and in other parts of the world. Why? Because they ARE Christians. We’ve seen people killed in Churches in this country but the Truth about those killings aren’t released. Evil is seeking to destroy Christians in any way possible.

Why are so many Christians being killed? Because the demons have possessed so many into believing that what is good is bad and what is evil is good. It is Biblical. Isaiah 5:20 New King James Version says; “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!” But even more, we are certainly looking at the end times and the book of Revelation is full of prophecy that speaks of the demoralization of mankind. They cannot stand our Jesus showing through us; they fear the LIGHT, they fear the TRUTH!

Yes, I have struggled and even though I know I should be praying, I haven’t been able because I feel God’s presence in my heart and I know what is coming because He reassures me. I want to rejoice, yet I mourn because I know how urgent things are and how many will not open their hearts to Jesus and it will be too late for them because they don’t know, they don’t know! I mourn for those who persecute Christians and hope their eyes and hearts open before it is too late!

When Erika Kirk stood behind that podium at “Her Charlie’s” memorial service, she had the armor of God on and her tongue was her sword of TRUTH! When she said those golden words; “Our Savior said, ‘Father, forgive them, for they not know what they do.’ That young man … I forgive him. I forgive him because it was what Christ did, and it’s what Charlie would do.” She set off heaps of ashes on heads of those who celebrated “Her Charlie’s” death! Was I surprised at her forgiving her husbands assassin? Not really, because in my heart I knew that this strong Christian woman is of the highest caliber of Christian. She lives and breathes Jesus Christ, awake and asleep. She has a power given her by the Holy Spirit that few Christians ever are blessed with.

Erika’s Grace bestowed upon the man who took her husband is a tiny example of Christ’s Grace he shows upon all humanity. We do not deserve it, yet it is freely given. Erika, in her wisdom as a Christian knows that had she not forgiven this man, her heart won’t heal and Charlie’s message would not be received as it should be. By giving Her Grace to the assassin, she releases herself from all burdens associated with the pain she is feeling. She has overcome any resentfulness she may feel. She did this not only for herself but for her children and Charlie’s mission. In doing so, she becomes the great lioness in the battle against evil and becomes a leader for Christ.

When we dig into Erika’s Grace further, we will discover that the Leftist who celebrate Charlie’s death and continue to insist that Charlie spoke evil, will not be able to deal with that Grace. Their rhetoric WILL BE EXPOSED as LIES! They will implode upon themselves and LIGHT will once again over power DARK. They have already exposed themselves and it will get worse before it gets better. They have already said they aren’t done with political assassinations and should have started higher. GOD FORBID!

As it is now, John 12:24 says it best, where Jesus is speaking. “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.” Jesus Christ’s seed was planted in Charlie’s heart and now, Charlie’s seeds are planted in MILLIONS of followers. Charlie’s life he led is worth copying as I don’t think we can find a better example of a man who let Jesus take COMPLETE CONTROL of his life. Let’s strive to be more Christlike!
