Of course I’m speaking mainly of in country martyrs. There have been many such on the mission fields.

All over the world during this century there has been an increase in Christian martyrdom, especially as Muslims have gained control of governments in more and more nations.  And accompanying that there has been the burning or the taking over of churches.  

And although the political fabric of these United States was, as we now examine it: radically (certainly more than fundamentally) changed with Obama.  Yet, much of the change was to see a rise in racism, which was spurred by the media and by Liberal politicians.  Killings among mainly a couple of white cops of black criminals were blown totally out of proportion. And liberal whites seemed to buy the idea of some racism gene having been ingrained into the psyche of all whites, especially of white Christian men. Thus perceived increases were taking place under the lefts banner of white Christian racism; and it was exploited in liberal churches as Americas worst sin. But, even so, religious martyrdom has not been seen openly in the U.S. – Not here, not until now. 

Even with Charlie’s murder, still religious martyrdom has not been mentioned in the media, but Charlie’s politics were driven even as it is with many of us by his religious beliefs.   The separation of church and state must be maintained with liberals.  But, It certainly was not Charlies support of politics that brought him to an end.  It was his support of Christ and Biblical morality that infuriates the opponents of this kind of morality. 

Basically politics has always been seen as the career of the most base deceivers and liars.  The political right is always accused by the liberal media as being the biggest of the liars. Charlie’s Biblical beliefs are what got him shot.  It was his application of God’s truth to the change taking place in politics that drew so much attention to him.  It was the God Factor that he made as clear as he could make it in its application to politics, that people could not tolerate; nor could they debate it.  And most walked away not feeling a win, from their attempts at debate with Charlie. They walked away, then as losers, and often they were furious, not because Charlie was a hater, but because Charlie was so effective at exposing the immoral lies that young people were being fed by their liberal leaders and educators.  

So Charlie Kirk was martyred for Jesus.  Martin Luther King was martyred for exposing the hypocrisy over the lack of freedom for all the races. 

The Kennedy’s were martyred for attempting to save the Republic.  Other lesser knows have given their lives for our Constitutional Republic.  But what got Charlie killed was his Religious truth telling, which had been all but lost in venues of higher education, which he had rejected in his own life.  He in fact was more effective than the so called fake educators in bringing out truth. He was like unto a John the Baptist in that John too had put down the hypocrisy of the educated and had paid for doing so with his life. 

Had Charlie been just a politician or even just a preacher he likely would not have been so effective, but when he became so successful with his Christ like arguments on the political stage, it was then that he became the enemy of the WOKE left.  They hated him as a Believer in Jesus first.  Their understanding likely is that without Jesus and Charlie having effectively introducing Him into the nations politics, that then their freedom to live in debauchery would continue. 

If their side is allowed to win now that Charlie is gone, it will only be because we refuse to follow Charlie and to stand with Jesus in the political arena. Charlie however, cannot be lifted in this moment, higher than his Savior Jesus, who took him to this place especially for our time in history. His work is done, ours must continue.
