Today America and the world saw one of the most incredible events in history – The Charlie Kirk Memorial.
Live in Phoenix, this event had the leaders of the free world.
But the highlight of the entire event was Charlie Kirk’s wife, who shared with poise and dignity. She was among the greatest speakers in US history and she shined like a star.
Ms. Kirk decided that she would share at today’s event. She did and she was exceptional. The former Ms. Arizona has been in the limelight before but never like this.
Ms. Kirk shined as she discussed her husband, their family, their relationship and TPUSA.
The key point was when Ms. Kirk talked about the day Charlie died and her going to the hospital to see him and how she knew he was dead. After discussing that, Ms. Kirk shared this:
Erika Kirk forgives her husband’s assassin:
“Our savior said, Father, forgive them for they know not what they do. That man, that young man, I forgive him.”
So incredibly powerful.
Pray for Erika

Erika went beyond human understanding by forgiving Charlie’s assassin. Exceptional.
I hope that helps heal her heart. But the killer is still going to hell unless he repents before he’s execited by firing squad.
Repent or not, he should be executed swiftly. He took an innocent life and justice warrants his punishment.
Right. Our forgiving someone doesn’t just sweep their sin under the carpet, or erase it from history. It really just amounts to us submitting to the principle “vengeance is mine, says the Lord, I will repay”.
We give up any claim to vengeance, and put the whole situation in God’s hands, where it belongs. Then it’s between the perpetrator and the Lord.
shes a better person than I am, but God Bless her for that…..
Forgive him and not seek the death penalty.
No forgiveness untill punishment is paid ing full then he apologize then forgiveness not before!
You cannot make peace with EVIL, you CANNOT compromise with EVIL, you CANNOT negotiate with EVIL….
you simply have to destroy it
that demon needs to leave this earth, I hope he gets the firing quad
The State of Utah is seeking the death penalty. It’s the prosecutors decision based on the circumstances and nature of the charges. She’s made clear she has no say. She could make a request, and may do so, but the state is under no legal obligation to grant her request.
It’s Erika’s right to forgive or not. And yes, God is a God of love. He also is a God of Judgement. This man must be executed as is the law in Utah, regardless of Erika’s forgiveness.
A powerful statement and an example to all Christians and everyone in this nation and the world. My heart goes out to her and her children. They, and Charlie, will be in my prayers and I pray also that this movement will bloom beyond anyone’s belief.
Watching her say that made me bawl like a baby.
Me, too! She knows she HAS to forgive him in order to live her own life in PEACE. However, she also knows that forgiving him does not mean he should not have to pay the consequences for what he did.
She has said in another interview that she does not want the death penalty for him. I hope the state can override her wishes – he needs to pay according to the law.
A woman of amazing strength,courage and Faith. God bless her and those children. May we all carrying on standing tall beside her.
I’ve been a Christian for over 20 years and I still don’t have the faith and strength it would take to forgive my husbands murderer, ten days later. She’s amazing! May The Lord continue to comfort and bless her.
Jesus wants to save every soul as we all come from God, so we are all family. Robinson has been deceived by Satan into doing murder and may go to hell. But Jesus wants to save every soul and if we forgive we are freed from negativity and serve Jesus by praying for sinners to turn to Jesus and thereby snatching a soul from Satan and give that soul back to God. What would Jesus want you to do?
Jesus answered them, ”To you it has been granted to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been granted. For whoever has, to him more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has shall be taken away from him.
Therefore, I speak to them in parables; because while seeing they do not see, and while hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. In their case, the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled, which says,
You will keep on hearing, but will not understand.
You will keep on seeing, but will not perceive;
For the heart of this people has become dull,
With their ears they scarcely hear,
And they have closed their eyes,
Otherwise they would see with their eyes,
Hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart and return,
And I would heal them.’
Matthew 13:11-15
Bless her heart… but I will forgive him after he is sentenced and put to death for his crime.
Ericka is a good person, but I find it very hard to believe that she forgives her husband’s murderer — at least not this soon after the fact. I think she said it only because it’s expected. The same can be said about the father of Austin Metcalf who was stabbed in the heart by Karmelo Anthony – the dead boy wasn’t even cold yet and there’s Dad saying ” I forgive him.” Frankly, that disgusted me.
Forgiveness is not a feeling. It is a decision. I’m sure Erika and that father were still dealing with anger, pain, resentment, etc at that time, but they CHOSE to forgive BEFORE they felt it. Usually, forgiveness precedes emotional healing, and healing can sometimes come fairly quickly after someone has forgiven.
From darkness, to light. This is the shinning moment which will change the world.
There is no hell , there is the lake of fire. No one burns for eternity. That is fake Christianity.
Finally, someone gets it.
Nope! It’s our SOUL that will either live in heaven or hell, FOREVER. When we die our physical bodies do not go with us—if we’re born-again Christians our spirits and souls go to heaven with God—if not Christians then our souls burn in hell for eternity while the spirit God gave us at birth goes back to heaven from which it came.
You seem a little confused. Paul did not use this kind of language to describe the resurrected believers in 1 Corinthians 15. When the risen Christ appeared to his disciples he was not an apparition or ghost but real and he is the firstfruits. Those serving him will after death “bear the image of the man of heaven.”
Paul speaks of a seed that dies and to whom God gives a body: “God gives it a body as he has chosen.” He continues, “It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body.” Paul continues to write of this mystery, “this perishable body must put on the imperishable, and this mortal body must put on immortality.”
We must take care we do not say more than the Scriptures allow or bring in ideas to explain what is difficult to grasp but hold to what is clear.
Jesus said there is a hell. Jesus said there is a lake of fire. The Bible says you go there for eternity if you reject Jesus as the sacrifice for your sins. Jesus wasn’t a fake. Your belief is not required for His words to be true.
You are calling Jesus a liar. I’d think seriously about that if I were you.
What is the point of a resurrection and a judgement if you’re in heaven or hell.
you are so RIGHT… Christ showed us there is a resurrection to life IN THE FUTURE…He also said “no one has ascended to the the father but me” so therefore NO one is in Gods abode which is heaven, when we die we are ASLEEP = we awaIt one Of the 3 resurrections that follow… mainstream christianity hijacked by simon magus a babylonian sorceror created the fals christianity that the romans picked up and called it christianity .. the univeral religion (roman catholicism) based in and on pure paganism.. one more lie = peter was never in rome, peter was not the first pope, Christ was talking about Himself when He said “and upon THIS rock i will build My churh”…
Jesus said there is an eternal fire that burns the chaff. Jesus did not say that sinners would burn forever, just that the fire would burn forever.
Jesus spoke more about Hell and the outer Darkness than everyone else in the old and New Testament combined. So are calling Jesus a liar?
You are dangerously wrong.
She’s a fool. Some don’t deserve forgiveness and this is the kind of crap is allowing good people to be murdered by marxists.
Matt. 5: 43-48
43 ¶ Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
Jesus wasn’t a fool. If Jesus only forgave those who deserved it no one would be forgiven.
Forgiveness cannot be separated from acknowledging sin and repentance.
John writes, “If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins (to God), he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:8-9). This is only possible for a God who is just and always does what is right, and must punish sin, because he sent his Son to receive the penalty and punishment for the sin of all who seek his forgiveness. While Jesus taught his followers to love their enemies, do good to those persecuting them and to forgive those who hurt them, it is only when they turn back to God that forgiveness can become a reality.
Pretty harsh words for a woman that JUST lost her husband. Jesus TELLS US to forgive our enemies and Charlie followed that.
She can forgive him but he must still be EXECUTED and not in 10 years, THIS YEAR!
Erika Kirk reflected the principles of Jesus in this memorial……..to love your enemies, to overcome evil with good, to remember what Jesus did for each one of us.
To God be the glory…..
Please do that privately.
Thanks
Sincerely,
Everyone else who is still living through the nightmare that isn’t 2 million arrests, seizures, financial judgements, and executions by Pam Bondi.
Sorry..but Erikas’s iforgive him attitude contributes to the lack of consequences in rhus society…a trend which leads to more victims. I lost some respect for her. The feminization of the justice system is in part to such weakness of thought. I am deeply saddened for her and will miss Charlie Kirk
But this nauseated me. Yes we have l9ve but there must be swift justice.
Beautiful Erika, inside and out is a much better Christian than I but I’m working on it Jesus
Luckily, there are those of us that haven’t thought that deeply about it.
Haven’t been so deeply moved by the spirit.
I’m thinking if more of us were moved we wouldn’t be having this stupid conversation
That’s cool.
She has a tremendous faith in God to say those words. She will be blessed by God I pray.
You can forgive someone for the crime they’ve committed but still know the government will try and punish them for their crime. One is personal forgiveness, the other is the legal law of our land.
Forgiveness is not mercy.
You can forgive sin, not crime.
“…forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us…” If we fail to extend forgiveness it’s because we do not truly grasp the forgiveness bought by the Holy Lamb of God for all sinful mankind.
How many of us – Christian or not – could TRULY forgive this guy just 11 days after the murder? It takes time to get through the grieving process. I believe she WANTS to forgive the murderer(s) but this was scripted.
Yeah luckily… can’t you see what you just said?

The state must not bear the sword in vain, but I must say, this Christian woman is an exceptional example.
She can forgive him. I personally do not. And I dont forgive the media upper management, the board of directors, the ceos, the college presidents, the wall street holding companies heads and anybody else who is and has been weaponizing the soft brains of American youth.

She is right and it’s not always easy to do.
That was a hard forgiveness.
Forgiving a person does NOT mean NO CONSEQUENCES.
The assassin should be punished to the maximum.
I believe capital punishment is needed.
If you take a life with extreme malice ad hatred,
then the taker needs to lose their life.
It’s called JUSTICE.
She has a tremendous faith in God to say those words. She will be blessed by God I pray.

That was a beautiful thing to see and hear. Those who have been sorely wronged know that unforgiveness becomes the prison of the victim, not the perpetrator. Her forgiveness of him releases him to God’s judgement, which will be just. Now she is free (or will be as her confession of forgiveness transforms her own heart from victim to victor). That is incredibly hard to do. I’m not sure if doing it in front of millions of people makes it easier or harder for her — but it surely helps the rest of us.

What a virtue signaling dolt she is. This points to the pending downfall of Turning Point under her leadership. Jesus could forgive those he did not know, because he was the perfect man and all-knowing, all-merciful God. Erika is a mere, fallible human. The suspect has not been tried, not been allowed to offer his defense, and we do not yet know if he acted alone. I knew this was going to happen, and if the guilty is/are not given the greatest punishment, more of these crimes against the Right will occur — just because a beauty queen bimbo who married well wanted to virtue signal early (and likely will do so often).
Beauty queen bimbo ????????? Why do some many people think that beauty is incompatible with intelligence? Ericka Kirk is no bimbo !

What I would do would never pass for forgiveness…
Christianity is a Jewish psyop meant to weaken the enemy so that the White man doesn’t fight back against people who want them dead. All that righteous anger is being squandered. Trump doing nothing. Bondi doing nothing. Kimmel set to return. Sado teachers celebrating murder only on leave will return to their jobs. We are doomed.

The death of her husband was a trial by fire and she proved her faith by forgiving the assassin. God bless and keep her.

I think we need to read Jesus’ words more carefully.
” Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.” Luke 17:3
God doesn’t forgive the unrepentant. He doesn’t ask us to either.
Until we are actually asked to forgive, our only burden is to leave the vengence in God’s hands (such as via the proper authorities) and not carry malice in our hearts.
