“Justice must prevail. But people have to know that nothing would make Charlie happier than for his killer to find repentance and to meet him in heaven. That’s his legacy and that is what sets followers of Christ apart,” one more stated.

Kirk’s voice can be heard over the montage. One could hear him conveying some of his fundamental messages: “Only in America is it possible to say, You know what? I don’t like the way the country is going, and to do something about it. Take that risk, take that leap of faith. Stay involved. Trust God and act obediently.”

“Romans 12, 2 verse: ‘That God uses all things, all things, for good, for those who love him.’ It’s bigger than you. I want you to remember, it is bigger than you. It’s bigger than me. You are here to make someone else’s life better, the pursuit of liberty and freedom,” Kirk continued. “You know what gives me strength? The hundreds of thousands of you that say, Charlie, keep going. First Corinthians 15 — so that’s all pretty amazing evidence. Not just biblical evidence, but extra-biblical evidence that Jesus Christ was a real person. He lived a perfect life. He was crucified, died, and rose on the third day. And he is Lord and God of all,” he added as the tribute concludes with “USA! USA! USA!” chants.
