A day after thousands took to the streets
to march for gun control and school safety measures in the "March for
Our Lives," Pastor Robert Jeffress announced he will be leading a "March
for Eternal Life" Sunday.
Jeffress, of the First Baptist Church of Dallas, will help lead the
march through the streets of the Texas city Sunday evening, marked by a
large white cross.
He said he expects thousands of people to join him and proclaim that
Jesus Christ is "the ultimate hope for our country."
Jeffress said the march is intended to
coincide with Palm Sunday, which commemorates Christ's entry into
Jerusalem prior to his Passion - which concludes with his Easter
resurrection.
Jeffress said he welcomed Saturday's activism, but that legislation
alone only "puts a band-aid on the cancer" afflicting society.
