Secretary of State shared the Gospel during Charlie Kirk’s memorial service, witnessed by millions across the world.
“One of the things he wants us to take away from this, from all of this, is the following. His deep belief that we were all created, every single one of us, before the beginning of time, by the hands of the God of the universe, an all-powerful God who loved us and created us for the purpose of living with him in eternity,” he stated. “But then sin entered the world and separated us from our creator. And so God took on the form of a man and came down and lived among us.”
“And He suffered like men, and He died like a man. But on the third day, He rose unlike any mortal man. And then, and to prove any doubters wrong, He ate with his disciples so they could see, and they touched his wounds,” Rubio continued, explaining that Christ “didn’t rise as a ghost or as a spirit, but as flesh. Then He rose to the heaven, but He promised he would return, and He will. And when He returns, because He took on that death, because He carried that cross, we were freed from the sin that separated us from him.”
“When He returns, there will be a new heaven and a new Earth, and we will all be together, and we are going to have a great reunion there again with Charlie and all the people we love.”
During his speech, Rubio noted that Kirk’s legacy is felt globally. “I just came from overseas, and every country I stopped, they gave us their condolences for his passing. Impactful, in just 31 years of life,” he said. “He mattered — and he will matter now more than he ever has before.”
