Phil Robertson, star of the hit show “Duck Dynasty,” says those trying to cancel others “don’t know God.”
QUICK FACTS:
- When interviewed on Newsmax’s “American Agenda,” Robertson said those who cancel others have not yet found salvation.
- “These people have not found Jesus yet, therefore they’re quick to condemn,” the reality TV star said.
- “You all got to realize, everybody out there is a sinner, or they’re saved by grace when they come to Jesus, who removes their sin.”
ROBERTSON ON FORGIVING THOSE WHO CANCEL:
“So, we just share Jesus with them, point them to Jesus, they’ve been canceled like all of us have been canceled when we sin.”
BACKGROUND:
- Robertson is not a stranger to cancel culture, after he was briefly suspended in 2013 from the show after he made comments to GQ Magazine about gay people.
- Since then, he has written a bestselling New York Times book titled “Uncanceled: Finding Meaning and Peace in a culture long before the term went mainstream.”
- “The ones who attacked me, I didn’t hold it against them,” he told Fox News Digital.
- “When we preach the gospel, God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and self-discipline, so don’t be ashamed to testify about our Lord, or ashamed of me, the apostle Paul, his prisoner. Join with me in suffering for the gospel,” Robertson said.
- “You come to Jesus, he uncancels you, and gets rid of the written code, puts us under grace where there is mercy and forgiveness.”
