‘They Tried to Cancel Jesus’: Rep. Lauren Boebert Ties Controversies About Her to Her Faith

Huckabee then asked Boebert how she responds to the suggestion that she should “tone it down.”

“You know, I think that people would love if I would tone it down,” Boebert replied. “But, you know, we had our Lord Jesus who certainly didn’t tone it down for anyone. We had the apostles who carried this message of the gospel. And even the leaders in their days, they said, ‘You know, it’s fine. You can pray, but just don’t do it in the name of Jesus.’”

“And now here we are in another cycle of cancel culture. But this is nothing new. Cancel culture has been around since the beginning of time,” Boebert continued. “Cain canceled Abel. We have Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego [who] were thrown into the fiery furnace. King Nebuchadnezzar wanted to cancel them, but there stood another in the midst of them. And He was as the Son of God.”

“And then they tried to cancel Jesus, but you can’t cancel God. And so we, right now, are charged to be bold in this time,” Boebert went on to say. “God has given us a spirit of power and of might and a well-disciplined mind—not a spirit of timidity. So I say, ‘Get after it and be bold.’”
