Is Charlie Kirk a martyr?

[Darrell C]

He was both an evangelistic and a political activist, but I think people's take depends on what they watched. If they watched him speak about Christianity, give his testimony, snd share the gospel they would probably view him as a martyr. But if they watched him defend conservatism then they would view him as a political advocate.

I have never seen him speak where he did not do both. But to be fair, I have only seen him address what others brought up (whether politics or religion).

Bottom line is it depends on why he was killed. Was it for speaking about Christ, Christianity and Christian positions? Was it for soeaking about conservative politics?

I can't say. It appears it had something to fo with his stance that the transgender agendas is wrong. That coukd go either way.

I think you did say: since you never saw him not preach the Gospel when he spoke.

The political issues he dealt with tie directly to a Biblical Worldview: abortion, homosexuality, and the numerous subtopics arising from those. Those who debated with him were political religionists. They were apostles and evangelists preaching the doctrine of their religion. Issues such as Free Speech and gun rights, though primarily political, were just the baggage of the true evil Charlie Kirk was dealing with.

The religion he battled on both fronts is the religion of the Democratic Mafia, which is born from the Liberal Agenda, which is itself born from the promise and efforts of Communism to destroy America. If we define a martyr" as someone who dies because they refuse to relinquish faith in Christ, then I think we would have to include Charlie Kirk with every soul that has perished because of that faith.

but I think people's take depends on what they watched.

This is very true. In a recent discussion with a family member, they "didn't see what I saw." The debate involved a young man who, bullhorn in hand, disrupted a lawful gathering, interrupting those trying to speak with Kirk. It's pretty amazing how two groups of people can look at the same thing and come to such radically opposite conclusions. I take that back: it's scary. I hope the recent wave of responses to his death lights a fire under the feet of all of us. Since I mention it, I'll usurp Paul's title, because I have been the chief of sinners concerning my duty to God to carry the Gospel to the lost.

I'll also mention that we need to be wary of who we align ourselves with, because the Democratic Mafia has adherents on both sides of the aisle. Many so-called "conservatives" will use Charlie Kirk's death as a political tool without taking into consideration the work Charlie Kirk was accomplishing. Because the political aspects are more important than Christ for them. Those people need the Gospel too, let's not forget that.
