It’s a safe bet that many if not most who support Ted Cruz are not aware of the Cult that goes with that support, the kind of demon that they would be putting in charge of our nation. One that falsely professes to be a Christian but unlike anything most of us would associate with legitimate Christianity. It’s time for Cruz supporters to open their eyes and see what it is that has control over their judgment. They’re voting and advocating for a cultish figure, one not very different from Jim Jones and Jonestown.

Given what has been posted here in past few months, use Sarc... :)
For example, I heard today that Beck was on suicide watch...did not believe there was any such truth...turned out he has threatened Indiana voters he might if they don’t do right thing...
I’m really sorry about the misunderstanding.
"Dominionists" are followers of Calvinist Rousas J. Rushdoony. I don't think Cruz qualifies.
But it's nice to know that thanks to Donald Trump, Free Republic has become just another place for accusing Fundamentalist Protestants of wanting to rule the world.
LOL no problem...I just wondered if it was true LOL As I said nothing surprises me!!
That's not true at all. They were not "massive" and they were not "well-documented". And someone commenting in a civil manner deserves a civil response. That's something you're evidently not capable of.
No wonder you don't like him!
Those two words you used “slippery, slithery” sounds like a perfect description of Ted Cruz. He lies in a very oblique way like a dishonest lawyer.
By definition, a Christian recognizes the need for salvation through Jesus Christ. It is not contingent upon which Church or denomination one belongs to. Is Trump saved? How would I know, nor care. That is between him and his God. My point is similar to yours, except many claim that they are Christian because of political expediency. I suspect it would be difficult to worship any deity if you feel like there was no need for one. One other point, which I am saying, is that we have all sinned and need forgiveness. The fact that he sees no need for forgiveness is quite a statement..does that mean he wouldn’t be a good leader? Absolutely not. I believe that God puts the leaders in place for His own purposes. Some turn out well, some poorly. God chose the first King of Israel because the people demanded one. He chose Saul, one of the worst. He then chose David - the best. I fear that God will chose Trump and he might be really bad. I hope not, for this nation’s sake. He might be giving us what we asked for ‘Hope and Change’, just like he gave us Obama.
I’m a lot more interested in changing the evil instituted by the current residents, like ending the ‘do not check for criminal background on federal job app;licants.
That Evil is already implemented in many US cities (look for ones where the local PD is "racist," has consent decrees and FEDGOV (DOJ) "monitors") For example:
Certain low-level crimes like not paying transit fare are no longer crimes per se and instead are handled "administratively" so that demographic doesn't have a criminal record when they apply for a job (of course they already have a criminal record and have no intention of ever getting a job).
Illegals are sentenced to 364 days, not 365 and not 1 year because doing so qualifies them for deportation at the federal level in many instances.
OCriminalCommunistDestroyer and his DO(in)J have been hard at work these last 8 years. If the Average Joe even knew half of what goes under the radar.
The background check you mention is so a very specific demographic literally becomes the Power Structure (FEDGOV).
This is all straight out of the Communist Playbook.
GOOD JOB AMERICA!
Given the tone and nature of "stuff" that's been all over FR and the internet since this circus came to town I wouldn't even repeat most of it, much less believe it or act on it.
I do believe that Cruz set much of the tone against him by opening his early campaign like it was Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show.
(And, now reverting to that tone when it's clear that he is in a deep hole.)
That said, it's interesting that so many Christians/evangelicals/social conservatives are now eager to trash him because he's a different sort of Christian/evangelical than they are. It only makes you wonder what they are trying to rationalize about their decisions.
(And what it means about the influence of that bloc in the future.)
I just hope we at least get a wall out of this deal, I have to give The Donald credit for putting that issue up front.
(But haven't heard so much about it of late).
Thank you, 144. We all sense something weird is associated with Heidi, Ted, Raphael and Beck.
Evangelicals somehow glommed on for the ride, attracted by the flag, the Bible and the Constitution waving over the annointed candidate.
‘He lies in a very oblique way like a dishonest lawyer.’
This is exactly Cruz’ MO. Like Bill Clinton, he imagines he is being uncommonly clever. Instead, he’s infuriating anyone who wants simple, straightforward honesty. Not a good move, it turns out.
Then no I am not with you. The constitution prohibits
Didn't seem to work....when Obama got elected twice.
‘Which would you rather, the status quo with institutions “commandeered” by the Left marching into the heart of darkness, or Christians re-taking our institutions and lighting the world as the children of light once again?’
A false dichotomy, with neither artificially constructed choice a part of scripture. The early church did not ‘commandeer’ ( what sickly fantasy! ) the Roman or other State apparatuses. They worked AROUND them all, as led by the Spirit, in spiritual warfare.
Dominionism is Christian noises emitted from an Islamic institution - JIHAD.
I really don’t get the Freeper hostility to this idea of Christians trying to make an impact in their world. According to the article these “evil cult” people want Christians to get involved in and influence “Arts & Entertainment, Business, Education, Family, Government, Media and Religion”

You left out the horsepuckey about kings, priests, and the redistribution of wealth at transnational levels.
We ARE called upon to be salt and light in a SPIRITUAL war. All we are promised is ultimate victory, and trials while on this earth.
Confusing
1) freedom of religious exercise in government and elsewhere (specifically PROTECTED by the Constitution) with
2) having a state-run church (obviously prohibited by the Constitution),
is exactly the kind of confusion the Left wants you to have to keep you under their tyranny.
I do not think a follower of the Nazarene is the criteria to define good men of faith. I have many a Jew who fits that definition but not yours.
But we’re not talking about “the church”, at least in the organizational sense. are we?
We’re talking about men of faith, like those who founded our country.
Confusing 1) freedom of religious exercise in government and elsewhere with 2) having a state-run church, is exactly the kind of confusion the Left wants you to have to keep you under their tyranny.
So you’re denying Jesus Christ is God’s Son in the flesh? Well then, that is a whole different discussion.
But, yes, I’m speaking mainly of Christians.
