Rylee Meek delivers a short spoken commentary asserting that the assassination of a public figure named Charlie was motivated by his Christian faith, not by politics. Meek argues Charlie’s politics flowed from his commitment to Jesus, frames the killing as an attempt to silence Christian witnesses, invokes a quote contrasting tyrant death with martyr influence, and cites scripture about Christians’ afterlife to comfort listeners.
Chapters
Charlie. Charlie's assassination was probably the most shocking murder of, you know, really of a public figure in the last, you know, 50 years. But here's the thing. He was not killed for politics. No, he was killed for his unwavering faith in Jesus Christ. His politics simply flowed from his convictions of being a sold out follower of Jesus Christ. That's why he was killed. And this is an attempt to silence every Christian out there, every Christian who actually dares to speak biblical truth in the public square that Charlie did so stinking. Well, they didn't kill him because he spoke. They killed him because an entire generation was actually starting to listen. You know, I heard this. This once said that when a tyrant dies, his reign ends, but when the martyr dies, his reign just begins. And the beautiful thing is you can't actually kill a Christian. You can you truly. You can't kill a Christian. You can only change their address. And the assassination of Charlie, all it did was change his address, right? Scripture tells us that immediately to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. And that's where Charlie is right now. It happened in an instant.
