Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson Says ‘Cancel Culture’ Is Contrary To The Gospel Of Jesus

“Duck Dynasty” head Phil Robertson says, “Cancel Culture” is contrary to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

In 2013, the 75-year-old hunter experienced the cancel culture himself when he was suspended from the popular show A&E because of his Biblical quote about homosexuality. He was labeled as a bigot by LGBT groups and The Human Rights Campaign.

“Five or six years ago, a guy came up and asked me, did I believe homosexual behavior was a sin,” Phil said to The Christian Post. “I quoted 1 Corinthians 6:9-10: ‘Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the thieves, the greedy drunks, they won’t inherit the Kingdom of God,’ Robertson said, citing [Paul’s letter] to the church at Corinth. ‘But you’ve been washed, you’ve been cleansed by the blood of Jesus.’”

Cancel Culture

Because he quoted a Bible verse, he was canceled by the people around him. Today, Phil has no hate towards those who wanted to see him canceled.

“They rail against me in a lot of ways. But I forgive them; I love them all.”

That experience sparked in his heart to wage war against the cancel culture. Phil believes that it is a campaign that is contrary to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. In addition to that, he also believes that it can destroy one’s free speech.

“The two greatest commandments in the Bible, according to Jesus, was to love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength, and to love your neighbor,” he explained. “What’s happened is the so-called ‘cancel culture’ are digging up the past of individuals, finding out where they made a mistake, finding out where they sin, and they pile on, they try to get them fired, and they do get them fired. They attack people. The problem with that type of thinking is that all of us have made mistakes, and all of us have sinned.”

He then continued to urge everyone to love those around us because it’s what God wants us to do.

“We better learn how to love one another, love God. And we better learn how to forgive people that make mistakes around us.”

Phil Robertson Shares About Preaching The Gospel To President Donald Trump

by Christel Berns August 24, 2020

written by Christel Berns

‘Duck Dynasty’ Star Phil Robertson revealed how he shared the Gospel with President Donald Trump in 2016. He believes that the president is a brother in Christ and that he is a “work in progress.”

In the “Edifi With Billy Hallowell” podcast, Phil shared the fascinating moment he had with President Donald Trump. He apparently met him during a “pre-election get together in 2016.” He had only a few minutes with him, so he took the opportunity to share the Gospel with the president.

Sharing The Gospel With President Donald Trump

“I reached in my pocket and I pulled out a diagram of the gospel. An arrow coming down out of heaven — God becoming flesh — the cross, the tomb. And an arrow coming out of the tomb and the last arrow coming back down to earth,” he recounted. “I said, ‘Whatever happens, Trump, don’t miss this.”

Then Donald asked for an explanation from Phil about the image. And he told him “that Jesus died for his sins” and shared the truth of God’s redemptive power.

A Brother In Christ, A Work In Progress

Phil believes that the president personally embraced the Gospel at that moment because he asked to keep the Gospel track Phil showed him. Later on, Phil shared some important Scriptures with him as well.

“I’m convinced he’s put his faith in Jesus and I’m convinced he’s a brother,” Phil said. He also emphasized that the president is a “work in progress.”

Also, the reality television star shared on the positive impact of his “Unashamed” podcast and his TV show “Phil in the Woods.”

He said, “All we’re doing is we’re reaching out to our neighbor, and we’re telling them to love their God, repent and turn to God, walk like Jesus did.”

Then he concluded, “Love God and love your neighbor … I do not see the downside to that.”

Duck Dynasty Star Phil Robertson Baptizes Followers Of His Podcast

by Christa August 21, 2020

written by Christa

The Duck Dynasty star, Phil Robertson, says the followers of his podcast would come to him at his residence. He claims that they wanted to be baptized by him.

Duck Dynasty star

Phil launched a podcast last 2019 called Unashamed with Phil Robertson. And it still ranks in the Top 10 in Apple’s religion and spiritual podcasts. He has been talking about the goodness of God and the love of Jesus.

“We’re reaching out to our neighbor and we’re telling them to love their God – repent and turn to God – walk like Jesus did. Love God and love your neighbor,” Phil shared in one of his recent episodes of the podcast.

‘Duck Dynasty’ Family After Escaping Gunfire: ‘We Have Been Resting On Psalm 91’

Recently, Phil shared that even though he lives in rural Louisiana, listeners of his podcast drive to his area. They want Phil to baptize them. The patriarch of the Duck Dynasty clan said, “They just keep coming.”

“They’re coming from that podcast,” he said. “About nine or maybe 10, in the last three days, they’ve come all the way down here. And I baptized that whole little crew. It’s that way every day or two.”

And Phil is not worried about the threat of the ongoing virus. He addressed concerns about baptizing strangers in the midst of the pandemic saying, “I baptized ‘em, and I’m still kicking.”

Jesus Politics

Moreover, Phil released a new book, Jesus Politics: How to Win Back the Soul of America. He discussed in his new book how the lack of faith in the country has divided the nation. “Therefore, the book’s about a ‘picture’ of what the kingdom of God is like to people of faith as they operate within a constitutional Republic,” he said. “We’re in Red China, we’re operating there under the radar, the kingdom of God is. … They whisper the scriptures and they’re hidden away.”

Despite having unpopular opinions, Phil stands firm in his beliefs. “You have to remember, the kingdom of God is about love, look at the love problem,” he said. “The opposite of love is hate. You say, ‘We’re full of it.’ The kingdom of God says, ‘Love, joy, peace, patience, goodness … gentleness, ‘self-growth.'”

‘Duck Dynasty’ Star Phil Robertson Calls The Public To ‘Turn To Jesus’

by Rhoda Gayle July 28, 2020

“Duck Dynasty” star Phil Robertson calls people to “turn to Jesus” in a write-up posted on Fox News website.

Phil Robertson

Phil Robertson is an author and a professional hunter who founded the Duck Commander Company. He also starred in the hit television series “Duck Dynasty” where he and his family showed how they live according to their Christian beliefs.

“We didn’t cuss or drink, we prayed on television,” Phil wrote in a write-up posted in Fox News. “We spoke about God openly. And we loved each other and lived out God’s intention for a family as best we could.”

Duck Dynasty

The father of five children has strong Christian beliefs and has also been open about his sinful past. Recently, in a article on Fox News website, he shared how God brought him out of the darknes.

“But if you’ve followed me for any amount of time, you know I didn’t always practice these godly principles,” he wrote. “In fact, for the first two decades of my life, I was pretty unruly. If you wanted to drag a skeleton out of my closet from all those years ago, it wouldn’t take you long to find one. Truth be told, I’ve dragged out plenty of my own skeletons over the years in an effort, to be honest about who I was before the Almighty got hold of me.”

Testimony

He then continued to explain how his sins impacted his family and how his wife prayed for him. Eventually, he turned to Christ and walked away from all the destructive living.

“This is how God works. He takes our wickedness and turns it into something beautiful. For me that “something beautiful” is my precious daughter,” he added.

“Turn to Christ”

He wrapped up his post by sharing the Gospel and calling people to turn to Christ.

“Here is my message to you and those you love,” Phil wrote. “There is a Way. Jesus says that He alone is the Way. He is the truth and the life. None of us can get to the Father except through Him. So give up, lay down your arms, repent and turn to the only one who can save you. Turn to Jesus, who is the fullness of Deity in bodily form, God in flesh. It’s never too late.”

‘Duck Dynasty’ Star Miss Kay Reveals How Phil Robertson Received Jesus

by Rhoda Gayle December 5, 2019

written by Rhoda Gayle

“Duck Dynasty” star Miss Kay revealed their family’s testimony and how Phil Robertson encountered Jesus.

Miss Kay & Phil Robertson

Marsha Kay Robertson, popularly known as Miss Kay, is the wife of entrepreneur and “Duck Dynasty” co-star Phil Alexander Robertson. In the finale of Pureflix’s “Restored With Missy Robertson,” She opened about the difficulties they faced in the early years of their marriage. She emotionally shared about her husband’s alcohol use, infidelity and later on salvation.

Alcohol use and infidelity

Phil Robertson is an American professional hunter, businessman and television star on the popular series “Duck Dynasty”. In 1966, he married the then 17-years-old Miss Kay. The couple faced hardships as they started to grow their family. Phil had a problem with his alcohol use and later on, Miss Kay found out about his infidelity. She had an excuse to leave their marriage, but she decided to stay and fight.

“I had to know that he was unfaithful because I wasn’t that stupid,” she said. “I had an out. I didn’t want an out.”

However, things became worse and Phil’s alcohol abuse began to take a toll on their family. Their children were still young at that time but their eldest son, Alan, helped her mother to cope up with their situation.

When Kay became a Christian, it made their situation worse as Phil despised her decision.

“He said, ‘I can’t stand it. Now you’re a holy roller,'” she recalled. “You’re ruining my life.”

Phil’s salvation

Miss Kay took the children and moved to an apartment and separated from Phil. However, that choice marked the start of Phil’s transformation. Phil won his wife’s and children’s hearts again by deciding to turn his life around. He accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior and asked his wife to baptize him.

“I looked at all the boys with just little tears … Jason’s comment was, ‘Mama, is the devil out of daddy now?'” she said. “I said, ‘Yup, Jesus Christ is in your dad. And so that is the story of us.'”

Hear their whole story in a video interview with Miss Kay.

The Robertson’s testimony shows that no one is never too far from the Lord to be saved by His grace!

‘Duck Dynasty’ Star Phil Robertson Talks About America, Faith, Family and Ministry

by Jared Laskey April 2, 2019

written by Jared Laskey

Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty opened up to Fox News about his former way of life. Before he became a professional hunter, Duck Commander, successful businessman and reality TV star, he said he lived “recklessly,” as a young man.

Phil said, “Until I was 28 I didn’t have any faith. Biblically speaking I was under the control of the evil one. I didn’t know that. I was just getting high and drunk with the worst of them.”

Then Phil came to a major realization… “What was I thinking? All that mischief and carrying on… I came to know Jesus. I looked up one day and I said, ‘Man, I’m driven to do this. I have to do it.'”

Devoted to Jesus

Phil was candid about temptations after giving his life to Christ. He said, “At first I was trying to be good. I was learning how to be good. My friends would come by, my old buddies, and they would say, ‘Let’s go for a ride. Drive up the road.’

“I said, ‘Nah.’ My faith was being tested… I just broke away from them… I will say I got an unlisted phone number and I hid out the first year while I was getting on my spiritual feet. That was 44 years ago. Well, the further I have gone on my walk of faith the more faithful I have become.”

Phil now devotes his life to helping others. “My wife and I go to the rehabs. The prisons. The downtrodden. The ones that no one would give a hoot about. The homeless… When we meet together we have food. We meet together on Sunday mornings… People who sleep under bridges can come in and we get them a good meal… It’s all God’s children coming together.”

New Book Release

Phil has released a new book called The Theft of America’s Soul. It is being promoted as, “a prophetic wake-up call for all who desire to see our nation thrive.” Tackling 10 central lies such as ‘God is dead,’ ‘truth is relative,’ and ‘unity is impossible,’ Phil shows the only true hope for America is in returning to God.

He wrote this latest book not just to raise awareness on his faith, but also to express why he’s proud being an American. Saying, “Well, as much as vitriol and hatred there is running around in America, one thing about America is our founding fathers said, ‘Make sure you don’t let anyone mess with your freedom of speech.’

“Can you imagine how much more difficult my job would be if I didn’t have the freedom of speech? Thank God for our founding fathers. I’m proud to be an American. I wrote the book so that I might help. Just help a little.”
