Actress from “Full House” chastised the portrayal of the Last Supper
Bishop Robert Barron: The Opening Ceremonies of the Paris Olympics are a “Clear Mockery” of the Last Supper
Bishop Robert Barron responds on “Fox News Live” to a drag queen spoof that purports to insult Christianity at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
Actress and devoted Christian Candace Cameron Bure is dismayed by the Olympic opening ceremonies, which featured what many consider to be a drag queen version of the Last Supper, much like many other world and religious leaders.
In an Instagram video, Bure discussed the subject openly, but only after disclosing that she was reluctant to talk about it. “Hello, pals. I therefore didn’t really want to publicly comment on the opening ceremony of the Olympics because I always run the danger of it becoming the news. However, it seemed too significant not to,” the former “Full House” cast member remarked straight to the camera.
She began, “I love the Olympic Games,” mentioning that her husband, Valeri Bure, a former right winger for the Montreal Canadiens, and other members of his family had won medals in previous Olympics. “I have always been incredibly happy during the Olympic Games. The world’s greatest athletes are vying for the championship.
“It was disgusting to witness such a fantastic event that will happen over the next two weeks and witness the opening ceremonies completely denigrate and ridicule the Christian faith with their rendition of the Last Supper,” the woman said. And it brought me great sorrow. “You shouldn’t be sad,” someone else said. You ought to be furious over it. And I said, ‘Believe me. It enrages me. However, I’m sadder because I’m sad for souls,” the woman remarked.
“I ask that what breaks God’s heart break my heart as well. And all of the people who have disregarded or are unaware of the message of Jesus Christ cross my mind. Furthermore, the Bible states that “God is not mocked” in Galatians [6:7-8]. One will reap what they sow, after all. For whomever plants in his flesh will harvest destruction from it. However, the spirit will provide eternal life to the one who sows to it.
“It was disgusting to witness such a fantastic event that will unfold over the next two weeks and to witness the opening ceremonies completely denigrate and ridicule the Christian faith with their rendition of the Last Supper.”
“Now, how should we handle this?” Bure enquired of her millions of fans. “Believers, let me continue what Paul is saying here. He goes on, saying, “Let us not grow weary of doing good.” Because if we don’t give up, we shall reap when the timing is right. Thus, let us endeavor to further the welfare of everyone, particularly that of the members of the household of religion, as soon as we have the chance.
Thus, she said, “this is my encouragement to you.” “Never give up on doing good deeds. Continue proclaiming the gospel. It’s also not reserved only for those who openly make fun of God. There are a lot of people, including Christians, who say things like, “Well, I’m a Christian, it didn’t really bother me.” The gospel must also reach those individuals. Those who have a neutral attitude toward it might think, “Oh, I don’t want to upset anyone.” Allow life to exist. Let everyone follow their own desires. I’m just going to keep quiet about it and remain in my corner.
“It’s not the time, man,” she asserted. “In terms of the games? Follow your desires. Do you wish to abstain from? Shut down the games. I plan on watching the games. My intention is to assist our athletes.
“I want to support the many amazing Christian athletes who are competing as well. I desire for God to be exalted. She continued, saying that athletes “had nothing to do with that opening ceremony,” and “I’m going to watch.”
“But if you have a strong feeling not to watch, then go ahead and do so,” she encouraged the doubters.
After receiving requests from her followers, Bure—who had originally uploaded the films to her Instagram story—shared them on her feed. I’ve made this shareable on Story per your request, so enjoy. My opinion of the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games However, the 48-year-old actress claimed that since her initial post on Saturday, many had made an effort to “correct” her, claiming that the opening ceremony “wasn’t about an interpretation of DaVinci’s The Last Supper, but about a Greek god and the festival of Dionysus; a god associated with ritual [madness], insanity, lust, etc.”
“I’m still not sure how that connects to using competitive sports to bring people together and making it appropriate for kids to watch.” Either way, I don’t buy it. I’m hoping you’ll pay attention the entire time. God wants you to know Him because He loves you all, each and every one of you. I will continue to pray and invoke the name of Jesus. Spread the good news of the gospel. Take this as a motivation to follow your religion with boldness. Let us return our hearts to God, Abraham’s father. Let’s offer up prayers. And pray that God would use the Christian athletes to shine their light,” she said in closing.
