When the world is harsh, Christ remains merciful. When the world is chaotic, Christ remains a solid rock to stand on. When the world feels dark, Christ remains a light that will shine forever.

If I die please don’t ignore my public teachings while believing rumors that I was radically changing my beliefs in secret.

I also suggest extending that same courtesy to Charlie Kirk.

What’s clear is that Kirk was a powerfully influential person and in his absence many people want to wield that influence for themselves after Charlie is no longer able to speak or correct a rumor.

Lucas here seems to be honoring the man rather than abusing his legacy.

A few recent interviews with John Yep ( @USAYep ) are circulating the claim that Charlie Kirk ( @charliekirk11 ) was in the process of converting to Catholicism. That claim is not accurate, and it needs to be corrected.

As the Senior Director of TPUSA’s Faith division and someone who served directly under Charlie’s leadership during the final year and a half of his life, I am in a position to speak plainly about this.

I have personally communicated with Charlie’s wife, @MrsErikaKirk, and I also spoke directly with Father Kline, the priest referenced in these discussions. After those conversations, the facts are straightforward:

• Charlie was not in the process of converting to Catholicism
• He never took Catholic conversion classes (OCIA)
• His marriage was never convalidated in the Catholic Church
• He was baptized Presbyterian and remained a Bible believing evangelical throughout his life

Father Kline indicated concern that his prior comments have been misconstrued and that the current public narrative is not accurately representing his conversations with Charlie’s intentions.

Let me be clear, respect for Catholicism is not the same thing as moving toward conversion. Charlie respected many people across denominational lines. Like many evangelicals, including myself, he read widely, including Augustine and Aquinas. None of that constitutes a conversion trajectory.

In my own conversations with Charlie, he was firm on justification by grace and did not believe he could biblically reconcile certain Catholic doctrines, including Mariology and the invocation of the Saints. In the few instances he was present at mass, he found it peaceful and beautiful. Charlie enjoyed sitting inside the empty sanctuary to worship in peace without being asked for selfies etc. That is a long way from entering OCIA.

If there had been an active conversion process, there would be documentation. There is none.

Charlie loved all true Christians, whether Catholic, Orthodox, or Evangelical. Again, that is a long way from entering OCIA.

That this even has to be addressed is bizarre.

An occasional “fist bump” does not equate to intimate friendship nor give @USAYep the authority to speak on behalf of the dead. I would caution him to take care not to overstate what the facts simply do not support. This is not about scoring theological points. It is about honoring Charlie’s actual life and faith with accuracy and refusing to let speculation rewrite his story.

@bpmckeon64 @MattMorseTV Yes

@marklucovsky @MattMorseTV Pretty sure there are zero cases of what you described happening. If I’m wrong, please give me the name of the person that happened to.

[Marc Daner @MarcDaner]

@ScottAdamsSays Praise God. We have all been praying for Christ to draw you to himself.

[Marc Daner @MarcDaner]

It took me a long time as well. Don’t let any complaints or criticism stop you. There is definitely not one way. Please give your life to Jesus and then dive into his word. I know you said you won’t be responding and that’s fine but if I could just give you a suggestion, it would be to spend as much time as possible reading the Bible. Read the gospel‘s backwards starting with John. Then read the book of Acts. Then go wherever the Spirit of the Lord leads you. I pray that the peace which surpasses all understanding will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus.

[Marc Daner @MarcDaner]

@PhilMickelson @Notwokenow Exactly!

@ScottAdamsSays @joelpollak Done 👍🏼

The president offered multiple off ramps, but was very clear throughout this process: the drug trafficking must stop, and the stolen oil must be returned to the United States. Maduro is the newest person to find out that President Trump means what he says.

Kudos to our brave special operators who pulled off a truly impressive operation.

@evitaduffy_1 I couldn’t agree more. They have hassled pregnant women and old ladies long enough.

Walking through Denver airport today and came upon a quartet singing Christmas carols. When they came to the line "God and sinners reconciled," tears flooded my eyes. A sinner like me reconciled with the Holy and eternal Lord of all. What a glorious and profound reality. I love Christmas.
