The world continues to grow more polarized over what is good and what is evil.
At Colorado State University, a Catholic student and chapter member of Turning Point USA, Blake Jones, became the target of anti-ICE protestors. In a Fox News report, Jones said he, along with three other students from TPUSA, attended a protest against ICE activity on campus, organized by groups such as the Young Democratic Socialists of America and Students for Justice in Palestine. The group followed the plan to engage in conversation with the other students and to write chalk Bible verses on the school plaza.
However, things took quite a different turn than they expected.
As Fox noted, the school has a long-standing policy allowing students to freely express their beliefs by writing in chalk on the plaza, which the Christian students used to write faith-based messages on the ground. However, the activists later changed these phrases.

Jones told Fox that the message “abortion is murder” was changed to “abortion is awesome,” and “God loves you” was turned into “God loves trans people.” An image of a transgender Jesus on the cross was also included in this, changing bible verses into trans-friendly messages. Not only was this blasphemous artwork created, but Jones also stated that he was confronted while writing down Bible verses, and the confrontation soon became heated when he asked to be left alone.
“He immediately raised his hands, stiffened his body, his face contorted, and he screamed,” Jones recounted. “This is when he charged at me with his fists raised. I do not have a doubt in my mind that he was planning on striking me.”
The angered student continued to push back at Jones’ decision to work on the Bible verses, and Jones claims the young man then “spat at him,” as Fox noted.
Sahara Bradley, who was with Jones, said that after this happened, they prayed together for the students who created the awful images.
“We prayed for the people who drew the cross, because they don’t know the sin they had just committed…We prayed for the Christian community who are fighting this battle alongside us. Lastly, we prayed that God protect us during this time,” she said.
This story is a stark reminder that we are living in the midst of a spiritual battle.
What happened at Colorado State University is not just a clash over words on a plaza—it is a direct confrontation between the truth of God’s Word and a culture determined to redefine right and wrong. This is a wake-up call for believers everywhere: the time to stand boldly in God’s truth has never been more urgent. The forces of deception are growing louder, but those who hold fast to Scripture and walk in the Spirit will not be shaken—they will be the witnesses of God’s glory in a world desperate for His truth.
