Forest Frank Loses 30,000 Followers for Posting About Charlie Kirk and Declares Jesus Christ Is Lord

[00:00] Christian music superstar Forest Frank

[00:03] lost 30,000 followers on social media

[00:07] for posting about Charlie Kirk. So, did

[00:10] that sudden drop in followers make him

[00:12] second guessess his post? Not exactly.

[00:15] 30,000 people unfollowed me because I

[00:18] posted about Charlie Kirk and I said

[00:20] that Jesus Christ is Lord. Good. I don't

[00:23] want you to follow me. I don't want you

[00:24] to track my music. I don't want you to

[00:27] come to my shows. I don't want you to do

[00:29] any of that if you don't do this one

[00:30] thing, and that is follow Jesus Christ,

[00:33] the King of all kings, the Lord of all

[00:35] lords, the one who is and the one who is

[00:36] to come. He's coming back real soon. So,

[00:39] if you have not gotten your heart right

[00:40] with him and dropped down on your knees

[00:42] and repented to him, today is the day.

[00:45] The hour is at hand. I don't know if you

[00:47] can feel it, too. There's a heaviness.

[00:49] Something shifted. And I don't care. I

[00:51] don't care anymore. I just want you to

[00:52] know that Jesus Christ is here and he

[00:54] loves you.

[00:55] I'm joined now by CBN's Billy Hollowell.

[00:57] Billy, what did you think about this?

[00:59] You know, this is an interesting

[01:01] situation because this was weeks ago

[01:03] where Forest Frank was being talked

[01:05] about by Charlie Kirk. Um, I think it

[01:07] was on Fox News. So, Charlie Kirk's

[01:09] talking about the positive influence of

[01:11] Forest Frank's music on Gen Z. And that

[01:14] conversation Forest Frank then shared on

[01:16] his social media platforms on Instagram

[01:18] and he lost those followers. I think

[01:20] it's fascinating in the wake of Charlie

[01:23] Kirk's assassination that Forest Frank

[01:26] put this video out. But I think he's

[01:27] feeling the same thing so many of the

[01:29] rest of us are feeling. This newfound

[01:31] boldness, right? He even said, "I I

[01:34] repent of the ways I've allowed my

[01:35] platform to be a lukewarm highlight

[01:37] reel." He said they didn't care if

[01:39] people followed him. Right? So, I think

[01:41] it's fascinating because he's literally

[01:42] saying, "I'm here now to spread the

[01:44] gospel. I'm going to do that in an

[01:46] authentic and true light." And what has

[01:48] happened in the past, you know, less

[01:50] than a week has really spurn spurned

[01:52] that along for him.

[01:54] And it's not just him either. You you

[01:55] see this boldness, this this for lack of

[01:58] better words, this roaring of the

[02:00] church, this roaring inspired by the

[02:02] line of the tribe of Judah that it's

[02:04] just happening not just in the states

[02:07] either in Europe, in the UK. There is

[02:09] something stirring. I've been trying to

[02:11] put my finger on I know a lot of people

[02:12] a lot of people have been trying to put

[02:13] their finger on it and there's one thing

[02:16] you keep hearing. There was a before and

[02:18] after. This was one of those uh

[02:21] atmosphere changing moments. This was

[02:23] September 11th. This was co this was

[02:25] some this wasn't this wasn't just

[02:27] someone got killed something happened

[02:29] something is happening there is this um

[02:33] unapologetic

[02:34] Christian roaring that I'm hearing and

[02:37] I'm seeing I mean churches around the

[02:39] country are standing room only something

[02:41] is happening uh but you know what I've

[02:43] also seen you've probably seen this too

[02:44] is this demonic push back and one of the

[02:47] things I find really interesting this

[02:48] might be a little bit of a tangent is

[02:50] just how many how how the enemy is going

[02:52] so out of its way to take our eyes off

[02:55] the prize. This, let me let me talk

[02:56] about something really fast. Just just

[02:58] one minute. One thing that I've really

[03:00] been seeing a lot of is a lot of

[03:02] conspiracy theories. And I get it. The

[03:04] conspiracy theories are really easy.

[03:06] They're they're they're fun. They they

[03:08] scratch something inside of us. Uh but I

[03:10] am so grateful and thankful that one of

[03:13] the biggest conspiracy theories, right,

[03:14] everyone's like, "Hey, that guy next to

[03:16] Charlie Kirk, he's he's giving military

[03:18] signals. See, it's the CIA. See, it's

[03:20] the Freemasons." I'm not saying there

[03:22] aren't really evil things in this world,

[03:25] but that guy that the whole world was

[03:27] like, "See, see, see, that was Frank

[03:30] Turk."

[03:33] I know. We know the guy. No, Frank Turk

[03:36] did not. Frank Turk is one of the most

[03:39] incredible apologists of the Christian

[03:41] faith in the world. He puts his neck on

[03:42] the line. He was just scratching his

[03:44] face and and touching his hat. Like I am

[03:47] so grateful that that wasn't some

[03:49] security guy, some random dude where

[03:51] people could go down rabbit holes. That

[03:53] was unequivocally, unquestionably

[03:56] that specific entity was not part of a

[04:00] conspiracy to kill or assassinate

[04:02] Charlie Kirk. So I think if we can just

[04:04] shine light on that, that was Frank

[04:06] Turk. That's not a conspiracy. It's

[04:09] like, guys, there's going to be all of

[04:10] this algorithm, all of this nonsense,

[04:12] all of these bots, all of this influence

[04:14] from foreign governments that are trying

[04:16] to mess with your mind. Let's stay on

[04:19] the on on what matters. And what matters

[04:21] is the gospel. And I think the enemy,

[04:25] sorry, I I'm going to give you the word,

[04:26] but I saw this social media pro social

[04:29] media post that really caught my eye,

[04:32] and I'm going to give the floor to you,

[04:33] Billy. Um it was basically saying,

[04:35] "Isn't it interesting that that the

[04:38] world that you wouldn't call it the um

[04:41] the the the the recessive the the

[04:44] regressive left, whatever you want to

[04:46] call it, has been for the past couple

[04:48] weeks, and we did a video about this,

[04:49] Billy, priming us to do one thing. Don't

[04:53] pray. Your prayers don't do anything.

[04:55] Stop praying. Praying isn't don't do it.

[04:56] Stop." It's like, wow. This is dear.

[04:59] This is what I think, Billy, has

[05:01] happened is that there has been a an

[05:03] unveiling of the spiritual world and now

[05:06] the the followers of Yeshua and the

[05:08] followers of darkness no longer are

[05:11] pretending. That's my opinion, Billy.

[05:14] Well, I think yeah, absolutely. You

[05:15] know, the enemy comes to steal, kill,

[05:17] destroy, confuse, and that's what we're

[05:20] watching in the culture, right? Even

[05:22] with this Charlie Kirk situation, the

[05:24] people who are joyful and jovial over

[05:26] it, that is from the pits of hell. That

[05:28] is demonic. There's nothing about that.

[05:30] I don't care whether you agree with some

[05:31] of the things he said or not. There is

[05:33] no need for a qualifier. That is evil.

[05:35] And yet, we're seeing this and it's so

[05:37] easy and I I want to just encourage

[05:39] people with this for us to want to

[05:40] attack and go after people verbally when

[05:43] we see those things on social media. But

[05:44] we need to be praying for people because

[05:46] they need the Lord. And all of us do.

[05:48] All of us fall short. We all need Jesus.

[05:51] And we need to have heart change and

[05:52] transformation. That should grieve you

[05:54] when you see that coming from people.

[05:56] And so we we can't fall into Satan's

[05:58] trap.

[05:59] Yeah. Yeah. We we we war not not against

[06:02] flesh and blood. Uh and and so my

[06:05] encouragement to you, my friend, is the

[06:07] how we fight this I know it sounds so

[06:10] cliche Christian coffee mug, but how we

[06:12] fight this battle is on our knees. If

[06:14] you want to do war against the evil

[06:17] that's that's just unveiling itself in

[06:19] the world, call upon he who defeated sin

[06:21] and death. Yeshua of Nazareth has won

[06:24] the battle. And oh my gosh. Oh guys, we

[06:27] gonna be praying. We need to be in our

[06:29] word. Your your your super clever

[06:31] response to a social media po post.

[06:33] Listen, push back, don't get me wrong,

[06:35] but the way that we win this, the way

[06:38] the way that darkness is pushed back is

[06:40] by your prayers. This is a spiritual

[06:42] battle.

[06:44] Oh my gosh. Now, then now is the time.

[06:45] So, Billy, uh, I I did not prepare for

[06:47] you for this, but it maybe in closing, I

[06:50] just think we're in that moment right

[06:51] now. But, brother, can you just quickly

[06:53] pray for us and and we'll close with

[06:54] that?

[06:55] Absolutely. Lord, I just ask that you

[06:57] would bind the spirits of division and

[07:00] hatred and evil, Lord, that you would

[07:02] just change our hearts, change our

[07:04] minds, force us to look in the mirror

[07:05] and think about the rhetoric we're

[07:07] putting out there, the things we're

[07:08] saying and doing that just pour gasoline

[07:10] on a fire. Help us instead to focus on

[07:12] the things that are going to flame faith

[07:14] for people, that are going to guide

[07:15] people towards you. Lord, I pray that

[07:16] you would that you would just change the

[07:19] hearts and minds of those who are

[07:20] rejoicing in evil, who are happy to see

[07:23] the things that are happening, and that

[07:24] you would just empower the church to be

[07:26] ready and and not just on foot, but to

[07:28] just be ready with their Bibles to

[07:30] understand. Give us, you know,

[07:31] supernatural understanding of your

[07:32] scripture, your word, so that we can

[07:34] meet the moment and bring people to you,

[07:36] which is what matters most. Lord, we

[07:38] love you. We thank you. the name of your

[07:40] son Jesus we pray. Amen.
