Kelly Shackelford: Racial Tensions Are The Result Of America Rejecting God

On Friday’s “Point of View” livecast, Kelly Shackelford, president of First Liberty, blamed the state of America’s race relations on the country’s increasing rejection of God, which he said invites Satan to foment racial tensions.

“Evil will come in when there’s a vacuum, and our country is moving away from God, and as it moves away from God, there’s all kind of little tussles going on over morality because it’s sort of like God’s been pushed out of the field, and when that happens, I mean, you know, Satan’s gonna use that as his playground,” Shackelford said. “And so we’re seeing things like this racial tension and these other things that are almost being fomented.”

He continued, “We have to look at this from the spiritual level, and this is what we’re going to see if our country moves more and more away from the truth.” Shackelford claimed that “people need to know the Lord, and that’s the ultimate hope for turning this around and having less and less of these type of horrific things happen.”
