Social media star challenges censorship ruling in court

«‘I felt like at any moment there would be a knock at the door, I would open it, and the police would arrest me,’ recalls Kika. ‘I cried oceans.’

And all because of a YouTube video?

Erika Nieto, known as Kika, is a Colombian girl-next-door-turned-social media star. She lives at home with her husband, with her cats and dogs. She’s not a criminal, she doesn’t kill, or steal, or embezzle. Yet there was an arrest warrant issued against her. She never thought she would have to live with that fear.

The twenty-eight-year-old is easily identified by her colorful hair, which apart from her natural brown, has been dyed every color of the rainbow: red, orange, blonde, green, blue, purple, all shades of pink and silver. Her fans appreciate her funny, charming, kind, and creative personality, and how openly she shares her Christian beliefs. On YouTube, you’ll find videos about her testimony, her pro-life views and her marriage. But in 2018, sharing her beliefs landed her in hot water,» writes Sofia Hörder in Christian Today.

Statement of Faith

Based on our adherence to the inspired, infallible, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God in Scripture, we profess with the Christian Church throughout time and around the world the faith expressed in the Apostles’ Creed:

I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come to judge the living and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen.
