Pat Robertson Death – Pat Robertson, who was a religious broadcaster, educator, philanthropist, and longtime TV personality, passed away at his home in Virginia Beach, Virginia, early on Thursday morning. Robertson had once run for president of the United States. He was 93. Robertson’s rise to fame is steeped in what he called a vision from God to create The Christian Broadcasting Network, which he created in 1960.
He was best known for delivering prayer and political commentary while helming The 700 Club, the flagship program of his media ministry. However, Robertson’s rise to prominence is also anchored in what he called a vision from God to create The 700 Club. He also established a Christian university, a legal advocacy group, and an international non-governmental organization that specializes in disaster assistance. He was a prolific innovator.
Even though he promoted a worldview that believes in the inerrancy of the Bible, both his approach to business and his on-air demeanor were deemed unconventional by some, and some even considered him to be ahead of his time. This was the case even though he believed in the inerrancy of the Bible. Today, his influence and legacy span numerous interests and industries, which have helped countless Christian leaders and laypeople break down formerly insurmountable obstacles.
Marion Gordon Robertson was given the nickname “Pat” by his older brother after he was born on March 22, 1930 in Lexington, Virginia. Marion Gordon Robertson’s real name was Marion Gordon Robertson. The fact that he continued to go by that name rather than his given name was just the beginning of the numerous social norms that he would ignore throughout his life.
Robertson, a lawyer with a degree from Yale and the son of a senator from the United States, had aspirations of becoming a prosperous businessman. He wrote of his desire to live the life of a New York socialite in his autobiography, which was published in 1972 and titled Shout It From the Housetops. When he converted to Christianity in the 1950s, however, his life took a dramatic turn for the better. He is now known as a “born-again Christian.”
Robertson gave up his own vision and decided to follow what he perceived to be God’s will for his life, which was to launch a ministry in the field of Christian radio. However, he had difficulties when he first began his career as a religious broadcaster, beginning with a limited amount of finance and an outdated television station that was up for sale in Portsmouth, Virginia.
