Do you know the Jesus that Charlie Kirk new/

John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me

This week has been particularly challenging for many of us as we learned about the assassination of Charlie Kirk during a speaking Q & A event on a college campus. Charlie was deeply committed to using his faith to challenge college students to think for themselves.

He held a firm belief that there are only two genders, male and female, as described in the Bible's book of Genesis. Charlie recognized that his life could be at risk at any of these rallies, yet he attended them with the hope that people would see Jesus in him, helping them to understand that the opposing viewpoint was not the correct one. Indeed, he took necessary precautions, such as wearing body armor to protect himself from any potential gunfire.

He was deeply troubled by the way public schools were influencing our children to believe they could identify as any gender they chose. His heart was heavy as he witnessed the consequences of transgender ideology, which he viewed as something that could render young children lifelong patients.

He undoubtedly spoke to individuals who recognized the harm inflicted by the medical community, which had sold them a false promise that ultimately left them no closer to being the opposite sex than someone wishing to become a sports car.

If only they had known Jesus as he did. If only Jesus could reach out to those students to remind them that they were fearfully and wonderfully made in the image of God.

He was certainly aware that our public school systems are failing children, as evidenced by declining achievement scores, seemingly more focused on ideology than on helping students achieve beyond mere 'average'.

If only they had known Jesus as Charlie knew Him.

Charlie Kirk possessed the courage to speak the truth because he understood that if his life were to end tragically, he would be welcomed into the presence of Jesus and spend eternity in heaven.

Charlie recognized that this world was not his ultimate home.

Do you know the Jesus that Charlie Kirk knew? Here

are some verses that may guide you to Jesus.

In John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'"

In John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life"

Head knowledge is not enough to earn everlasting life. You must receive Christ in your heart by first admitting you are a sinner and fall short of God's standard of perfection.Then, you must confess that Jesus is the only way to eternal life.

Finally, you must humbly come before the Lord and offer up your prayer.

Dear Jesus, I know that I'm a sinner and fall short of God's standard of perfection. I now understand that you died on the cross for all of my sin's and you alone will earn my salvation. I ask you to come into my heart. Thank you Lord for your gift of everlasting life.

If you said that prayer you can be assured that when your purpose on earth has been fulfilled you will see Jesus in all his glory, much like Charlie Kirk is experiencing right now in heaven.

On a final note, your life continues until your God calls you home. Until then, God has some exciting things for you on this journey.
