I predicted this would happen. Here are my exact words, when I first found out that Tebow was scheduled to speak at First Baptist Dallas Church.

I portion of that is a lie, because there is no way Tebow wasn’t aware of Pastor Robert Jeffress feelings on gays, President Obama and other controversial issues. One Google search on him and the church turns up a ton of information. Tebow is a smart guy, he knew who this guy was and probably secretly shares some of his beliefs.
Once, the PR team got a hold of it, that was the end of that. Tebow’s image is everything, but just remember it is just a public image, we don’t know the real Tebow, who thought at first this would be a good idea.
