God's Not Dead Actor Antonio Sabato Jr. Encourages Christians to Trust in Christ amid Threats to Religious Freedom
By: Milton Quintanilla
The 1st amendment from freedom of speech to assembly to petitioning government, along with the free exercise there of are all at risk in today’s America. Religious 🙏liberty 🗽 is a virtual anathema to bi coastal secular progressive elites. The other side is divided over denial God exists and hating Him because they know He is real and don’t like it. They are unified in their desire to persecute and mock true believers and to take away our free exercise rights. Home and private schooling has long been a target of the left. That makes this yet another timely topic to be explored.

God's Not Dead Actor Antonio Sabato Jr. Encourages Christians to Trust in Christ amid Threats to Religious Freedom
Actor and former model Antonio Sabato Jr., who will be starring in the fourth installment of the God's Not Dead films, is encouraging Christians to trust in Jesus Christ amid recent threats to religious liberty.
The movie, titled "God's Not Dead: We the People, " will tackle the topics of "freedom of speech and religious liberties as the fundamental right to educate children," as seen in national headlines in recent years.
David A.R. White, who starred in the first three God's Not Dead films, will be reprising his role as the Rev. Dave hill.
"It's such a beautiful franchise with friends of mine," Sabato told The Christian Post in a recent interview. "David White and the whole production company, I was so honored to be part of this and to be able to be asked to play this role that is really close to their heart. It's just a beautiful story with a really great message and shot beautifully."
According to the film's synopsis, Reverend Dave will be defending a group of Christian homeschooling families as he is called to Washington D.C. "to testify in a landmark congressional hearing that will determine the future of religious freedom in our country for years to come."
Sabato, who first rose to fame in the 90s as a Calvin Klein underwear model and for starring in the soap opera General Hospital , believes that the film reflects the current attacks on freedom of speech and religious liberty.
"Our freedom is being attacked at the moment, in different ways. So we have to stand up. I believe that God is putting a test on us," the actor explained. "We have to keep fighting, and we have to keep in faith and know that God will succeed no matter what. But we, as people, have to really come out of our shells and really devote ourselves to the Lord."
While Christians will be confronted with evil, Sabato asserted that "at the end of the day, we always succeed." He encouraged Christians to be aware and to be committed because it's during hard times that "faith is really the bottom line."
"We can't rely on the news; we can rely on people, we can't rely on humans, we have to rely on our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for everything," Sabato declared.
"This movie is coming out at the right time. God doesn't make mistakes; it's not a coincidence," he contended.
"God's Not Dead: We The People" will be released in theaters on October 4th. The film will feature Sabato, Isaiah Washington ( Grey's Anatomy ) and Grammy-winning Christian artist Francesca Battistelli among others.

thumper cinema. where you pay to watch it in a church and then they pass the plate at intermission and again when the credits roll.
This movie like the first three God’s not Dead movies will be in a theater near you and nationwide. A timely topic too since home and religious private school attendance doubled since the pandemic began and the teachers unions will likely use government to get their students back from their parents.
god isn't dead, that's just the smell of a decaying evangelical cult hiding under his outhouse.

I missed where he knocked other religions besides Christianity ✝️
I'm not ridiculing christians, just mocking the hypocritical xtian cults.
gullible and willfully ignorant xtian hypocrites, thumpers, can fuck off...
yeah, so did I. somebody under a big hat must be talking out of their ass again...
I'll be sure and let them know, when they get back from teavangelical church.
Why would non believers be getting back from a church they don’t believe in?
... to divide up the cash they hauled in on sunday.
Fundie homeschooling is tantamount to child abuse.
12 years of protected thumper sex ed.
might be some truth in your claim that being molested by the clergy turned them into democrats...
sorry, I don't know where to find a reliable source for god's quotes. got any suggestions?
I wouldnt know how religious any of those people are because you dont need to be religious, or even a Catholic, to attend a Catholic university.
In most cases you dont have to be Catholic to attend a Catholic high school either, although I would imagine most of the kids are because it is not free like public school is.
No, it’s not. Private Christian school education beats public schools and home schooled students do best of all.
Christians seem to feel attacked or constrained whenever they can't force everybody to adhere to their beliefs. Same with most religions, they all have a faction of people who want to put their beliefs into law. What religious right does that mental giant Antonio Sabato Jr think is being threatened?
Read the article and then you would know. A whole bunch of rights of believers were threatened or outright taken away over the last year and a half.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_Sab%C3%A0to_Jr." > .
Modelling for Playgirl , which has the reputation of being more popular with gay men than with women.
Hawker of mail-order brides.
Three kids with 3 different women (two of whom to which he was not married), and multiple problems with substance abuse.
Sounds exactly like the type of person religious fundamentalists generally love to persecute (or at least judge), themselves. Until it suits them politically to do otherwise.
He must be Catholic...
the worse you were, the better off you'll be, when you climb aboard that thumper train to salvation...
There is no sin that man repents of that God will not forgive. We are all sinners. God has forgiven people who’ve done bad things and then used them to do great things to advance His will in this world. That salvation you mockingly refer to above is available to all who seek it.
what about those that claim to be saved, yet still continue to do bad things? toss some cash in the basket, then a quick rinse and reset every sunday?
That there are hypocrites in the church and fake believers going through the motions is a fact. No one can deny it. The term wolf in sheep’s clothing is applicable here. They do bad things while pretending to believe. They believe that they can be “saved” and then continue in their old ways. They are wrong. They can damage the faith of some. The bottom line though is that “there are hypocrites in the church” excuse will not stand as a defense in the judgement. Each person is responsible for themselves and allowing what others do to affect that is a big mistake.
Saw a great interview with John Feal the other day.
Source? We are well aware he had a life before his conversion. Trying to use what he did before his conversion against him and his message now only reinforces the power of that change.
Source?
Wiki, like it says, why link it after what you said about Wiki?
Just a bio because I never heard of him, I could care less who he worships.
What I said about wiki is the truth. Even it’s co founder has stated that it long ago lost any sense of objectivity and evenhanded dealing with the issues of the day. They are pure propaganda for the left and the secular progressive and nothing more. They are of no value.
Nothing is perfect, but except for the opinions of hard core conservatives, Wiki is pretty neutral.
That one of the co-founder is disappointed is of no importance. Larry Sanger is apparently sincere and
started Citizendium which he controls more tightly than Jimmy Wales does Wiki.
Wales also started Fandom which he recently sold and reportedly, Sanger was upset by not being included.
Ironically Sanger also complains that Wiki is perceived to be "anti elitist" so you might want to reevaluate.
It’s not just hard core conservatives, it’s virtually all of us. We have no use for big tech social media “fact checkers”, Gate keepers, wiki pedia, MBFC, and the like. They are waging open warfare against free speech, the first amendment in general and much of what it is Christians and conservatives believe in . We have as much contempt for them as they do for us. We will not change our beliefs and ideas to be compatible with them or compromise anything at all to appease them. We will believe and express what we do without compromise. Eventually they will rate enough of our stuff unacceptable and one too many places will be ruled off limits, and we will all find our way to alternative social media places and dialogue will be rent in two as progressives and conservatives will no longer communicate with each other but talk past and over each other from competing platforms where the other has no presence and we will have two America’s in every way. Two way communication and dialogue is important but we Christian conservatives will not be 2nd class citizens on big tech platforms in order for it to happen. It would be better to have two separate segregated competing systems that don’t acknowledge the existence of the other than be dictated to on on content by Godless progressives. Fortunately that time is not yet here and hopefully cooler minds interested in dialogue on fully equal terms will prevail. Maybe Facebook, Twitter, and Google will one day see the light.
You should really learn to just speak for yourself.
No they are just trying to promote the truth. If you believe in the Tooth Fairy does that make the Tooth Fairy real?
Of course not.
That's your problem, I'm sure they care not a whit for your personal issues.
No one expects you to, by the same token, I don't expect proselytizing from any religious group ever.
You are free to leave at anytime yet persist. Free choice, no Amendments being violated, just paranoid psycho babble.
Can't stand the heat? Get out of the Kitchen.
Epik, Parler, Gab, minds and others are available for those who seem to think comity and civility only applies to those
in total religious or political agreement.
Oh thank God. /s
Pretty sure they will never see the same light you see.
Fortunately the alternatives to Facebook, Google/YouTube/Twitter are growing and getting stronger each passing day.
Nothing else written above is worthy of a reply.
He sounds somewhat like Trump was before he was converted. Both of them do great things now.
He is a typical Hollywood right-wing extremist completely out of touch will real life and the values of the Anerican people.
"American" -- pardon the typo
The keys on my cell phone keyboard are too small!
That has happened to all of us who use that method here. We know what you meant.
Turn it sideways?
He has a wide variety of experiences pre and post conversion. This man clearly puts his religious beliefs higher than political ones. He’s aware of how political people can often through their bias and intolerance negatively impact upon the expression of religious beliefs and the religious liberty of believers. The movie he made deals with yet another attack upon home schooling this time by the federal government dominated by secular progressives.
The seed subject is a faith based movie coming to a theater near you and it’s topic of home schooling and big government.
Could someone list the legislation that is removing religious freedom?
We'll wait.
Don't hold your breath.
Most of it was done by executive and or emergency orders by secular progressive blue city mayors, blue state governors, and now a blue President. We had to go through the courts to claw back some of what we lost.
List them.
Where I live in California we had to sue the governor repeatedly to preserve our rights or restore them. All the way to the Supreme Court. Some of us in the outlying rural counties simply resorted to open and outright defying him. It took signing recall petitions and forcing him to the ballot to get him to moderate his actions.
Again, you are not listing ANY specific laws that specifically denied you your freedom of religion. My guess as to why is because there were none.
Remember when cops ticketed people parked in their cars listening to a church service on their FM radios? The churches impacted for worshipping outdoors? The churches impacted by blue city/ state government for meeting on the same numbers as businesses down the street? The bans on singing and chanting? The harassment of let us worship for gathering outdoors at the same time as the riots in our cities? It took the Supreme Court to undo Newscums edicts.
The threat to freedom of religion is very real. America’s secular progressives want to do on a national level what Canadian and Australian governments are doing to church goers over there and up there. The executive orders of blue mayors and governors are those they want Biden to attempt on a national level.
