Erika Kirk: ‘My Husband Witnessed for His Lord and Savior Jesus Christ’ on His Final Day
Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk’s wife Erika Kirk made her first public address on Friday, two days after her husband was assassinated at the first stop of his “American Comeback Tour” at Utah Valley University.
Erika spoke of her husband’s legacy, his passion for the United States of America, and his zeal for Jesus Christ.
“Two days ago, my husband Charlie, went to see the face of his savior and his God. Charlie always said that when he was gone, he wanted to be remembered for his courage and for his faith,” she said. “And one of the final conversations that he had on this earth, my husband witnessed for his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.”
“Now, and for all eternity, he will stand at his savior’s side, wearing the glorious crown of a martyr,” she continued.
Erika pleaded with those watching to become a member of a church if they are not already, and to pick up the mission of spreading the gospel.
“But most important of all, if you aren’t a member of a church, I beg you to join one — a Bible believing church,” she said. “Our battle is not simply a political one. Above all, it is spiritual. It’s spiritual. The spiritual warfare is palpable.”
