Huckabee to Hispanic Christians: "Every Night We Should Get on Our Knees and Thank God for America"

News Staff : May 1, 2015  PR Newswire

"May I say to you that I respect the courts, but the Supreme Court is only that—the supreme of the courts. But it is not the Supreme Being... the court cannot change what God has created." -Gov. Mike Huckabee

(Houston, TX)—Gov. Mike Huckabee, presumed 2016 Republican presidential candidate, addressed more than 1,000 Latino Evangelical leaders as the featured speaker at the evening awards dinner at The National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference (NHCLC/CONEL) annual convention in Houston, Texas.

"The person I am going to introduce to you is a great friend," said Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of NHCLC/CONEL, in introducing Gov. Huckabee from the platform. "He understands with hard work and a good value system you can live the American dream. He is a born-again Christian, who loves Jesus and he is a champion of many of our causes."

Alluding to the oral arguments regarding same-sex marriage heard by the Supreme Court on April 28, Gov. Huckabee spoke to the critical protection of religious liberty.

"All of our ancestors came to this country hoping for something that we have been uniquely given and that is liberty—religious liberty. And it is under assault," Gov. Huckabee said. "May I say to you that I respect the courts, but the Supreme Court is only that—the supreme of the courts. But it is not the Supreme Being... the court cannot change what God has created."

Gov. Huckabee shared a story of meeting Dmitri, a man who left the Soviet Union in 1988, just one year before the fall of The Berlin Wall. When asked about why he left, the man said it was because his government lied to him.

"I wish more people appreciated their freedom—what freedom really means from the heart of someone who knew what it was like to live without it," said Gov. Huckabee. "God has given us, by His grace, the opportunity to be the preservers of this Republic—not so we could selfishly take from it, but rather give to it."

Gov. Huckabee challenged attendees to pray for our country every day.

"We owe it to our children and grandchildren to give them a world that is not falling apart but one that we are working to put back together," he said. "The one thing we need to do every night of our lives is get on our knees and thank God we live in a country where people are trying hard to get in and not trying to get out of."
