I love it when someone in the spotlight takes a stand for our Lord. I know it absolutely drives the demons in the media nuts.

The comparison to Palin is apt. She tormented the demons who rule the Leftwingers. They hate the Good like vampires hate sunlight.

Bob Costas editorialized against him on SNF last week. It was hateful. But that contemptible little weasel didn't dare mention Tebow’s faith as the reason he didn't like him.

Anyone notice the sideline after the game? Tebow kneeling and giving thanks, joined hand in hand with several other players, black player.
I thought that was more impressive than his testimony.

Not only does this man public about his faith but he also seems to live a life of man that walks in faith.....no, he is not perfect and as soon as he gets a parking ticket that will be the leading headline in the lame stream media....but God already warned us about these days.....

What is interesting is how the LEFT doesn't have a problem with African American players spouting Christian rhetoric. Adrian Peterson constantly says “I give praise, glory and honor to Jesus” and NO ONE from the LEFT says anything about him or other African American athletes.

The LEFT is basically saying, you can only be a proud Christian if you are NOT WHITE. If you are white, you just keep your pie-hole closed.

The “Progressives Rules” for us humans...

Blacks, Hispanics, Women and Gays all belong to the Democrat Party.

Islam and Non-white Christians are to be protected

The 53% of tax payers are GREEDY

The non-tax payers are SAINTS

Hillary is beautiful

Sarah is ugly

Importing poverty from down south is why the U.S. became the great nation from the beginning.


Idiot Liberals!!

My sons college soccer team (Colorado Christian university) forms a circle at midfield after the game and holds hands and prays. The opposing team is always invited to join. Sometimes the whole team joins, sometimes one or two, sometimes none. But it is a powerful witness wherever they go. God bless Tebow for attempting the same witness.

I like this young man more each day. Here in Denver there is a new term “tebowing” meaning to drop to a knee and pray at seemingly random times. A lot of people are having a big laugh at Tebows expense. Asked about it on the largest evening drive time radio show in Colorado, he said he had received a communication from a young man with cancer. This 8yo told Tebow that he was “Tebowing while chemo-ing”. Tebow said if even that one child got comfort and turned to prayer through it, he was good with all the ridicule. What a fantastic young man.

I first became aware of Tebow when my daughter told me about a football player who wore eye black strips with Bible verses on them. I watched him play and became a fan. He’s great kid who knows what is important in his life.

Jesus had something to say about this.

Matthew 6: “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

Now I’m not accusing Mr. Tebow of being like the hypocrites Christ referred to here. I am saying that Jesus is on record about public ostentatious prayer being potentially problematic.

We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self-government; upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.

As a Georgia Bulldawg fan, I can’t stand Florida, but I admire and cheer for Tim Tebow.

BTW, he was also home-schooled in High School. Florida rightly lets homeschoolers play in High School sports and have access to other school facilities.

We pay for those services, so our children should have access to them, even if we don’t want them being brainwashed and ruined in the classrooms.

I went to UF years ago and now live in the Rockies west of Denver. I was very happy when the Broncos drafted Tebow!!!

wonder if there’s a tebow comeback against a formidable opponent today, and not against the worst team in sports, the dolphs.

You got that right! The play calling against the Dolphs was uninspiring. Two runs up the middle and a pass attempt on 3rd. After about 10 times in a row even the Dolphs figured it out. It was only in the last 3 minutes that they were forced to change and it was clear what the difference was.

“As a Georgia Bulldawg fan, I can’t stand Florida, but I admire and cheer for Tim Tebow.”

How ‘bout them ‘dawgs..... I retired from UF in ‘03, so I missed getting to see Tim play, but, I did get to bask in the glory of another former Gator - Danny Wuerffel. Both men make me proud to be a Gator and proud to be an American.
