While the NFL corporate structure has welcomed left-wing politics into the organization with open arms, many of the players continue to stand up for God and His biblical values.
This is especially the case when the Olympic Opening Ceremony, dubbed by many to be a demonic perversion, offended Christians and non-Christians alike around the world.

Kansas City Chiefs placekicker Harrison Butker, known for speaking up for traditional, biblical values, was having none of it and confronted the sexually perverse performance with Scripture.
He posted to social media with a video of the event saying:
“Be not deceived, God is not mocked. For what things a man shall sow, those also shall he reap. For he that soweth in his flesh, of the flesh also shall reap corruption. But he that soweth in the spirit, of the spirit shall reap life everlasting.”
Galatians 6:7-8
Butker was joined by former quarterback Luke McCown, who refused to repost the Olympic “filth” and condemned the portrayal of Jesus the risen Lord in a lengthy social media post:
Won’t repost the filth from the Olympics..
Disappointed but not surprised..not sure why it’s a part of the event..But know this..
There was a last supper that led to an empty tomb.A tomb that for three days held the body of the God-man Jesus who just prior to the tomb, indeed had a last supper with his disciples before he willingly climbed on a cross…
carrying with him, in a selfless act of grace, all the sins of all the world,
past, present and future sins…and bore the wrath and judgement of a righteous and holy God so that we..
me, you, them, all of us.. would no longer be bound by the sins that entangle us..
but be set free from its grip on our minds, hearts, bodies and souls.. even free from the grip of death itself.
There was a last supper, that led to a blood covered cross, that led to an empty tomb. Proclaiming victory over sin, death, and hell.
So that we might be invited to an eternal banquet!
The last supper led to the 1st empty tomb.
A victory won. Thank you Jesus for the last supper.
Go read about in the Bible starting in
Matthew 26:17.
While the brains behind the ceremony have tried to deflect any wrongdoing as an act of unity and love, along with the Olympic committee’s apology that wasn’t really an apology, few are taking the bait and instead are calling out the atrocious performance for what it was: anti-God.
