1. Sadie Robertson Huff
On Instagram, Robertson's granddaughter, author and evangelist Sadie Robertson Huff, remembered her grandfather's passion for Christ.
"As I was sitting with Papaw Phil today, I thought about this verse," she wrote, citing 2 Corinthians 5:17 ESV. The verse reads: "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."
"[H]e has already experienced this on earth — going from dead to alive by the power of Christ!" she wrote. "It was his testimony that changed his life, our families life, and thousands of others. Now he is experiencing it in the fullness. Fully alive in Christ. The new has come."
The 27-year-old recalled that one of the last things her grandfather said to her was, "Full strength ahead!'"
"Amen!" Robertson Huff concluded.
