“My pastor said this this morning at men’s prayer breakfast...”
******************************************************************************
Did your pastor this morning also say you should go back and find a January 2016 article & post it as news?

This is why free republic is swirling down the drain.

I don't have a clue why you would say such a thing? Free Republic is the best place for conservative discussions on the internet. There is no other destination with as much to offer. Why should this subject be off limits. I doubt whether most people care a great deal about how much Ted gives to his church, except that it seems to be a bit contradictory considering the way that he has been portraying himself in this campaign. His surrogate, Glenn Beck has described him as the new “Moses”.

Yes, that is true.

Not arguing with your point, in my case, I could just write a check, deduct it and then point to my tax returns and say “look at me, ain’t I wonderful.” (Many do that, for sure).

My time is more personal and a greater sacrifice.

liberal mainline church?

he may not claim his charitable deductions to the church and contrary to your lack of knowledge, tithing is not mandatory at all in the new testament. the more legalistic churches are the ones who try to force it and you can sure tell where their spiritual priorities are. $$$$$ many bible churches promote sacrificial giving and not telling the left hand what the right hand is doing—giving is between us and the Lord. What do you give to? oh and if we are being fair.....where are Donald’s TAX RETURNS. huh?

"According to personal tax returns released during his 2012 Senate bid, Cruz contributed less than 1% of his income to charity between 2006 and 2010 — a far cry from the 10% most evangelical leaders believe the Bible demands."

Can tithing ONLY be hard money? In my opinion tithing cam be of your time also. Ted fought the Veterans Flag Monument before the Supreme Court Pro-Bono.

If we can get Turd Cruz to tithe, we can reverse the trend.

He admits not tithing.

http://www1.cbn.com/thebrodyfile/archive/2016/01/26/ted-cruz-to-brody-file-on-biblical-tithing-i-have

He also tries to say it was years ago, except there’s this:

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2016/02/28/ted-cruz-campaign-avoids-questions-on-lack-of-information-on-tithing/

The campaign said all his charitable gifts were on his financial disclosure, in which case, it has consistently been under 1%.

Tithing doesn’t get anyone to Heaven.

My point has been that Ted is not a perfect man, like the rest of us, and he shouldn’t try to make himself come across that way.

See post #73.

FR used to be a great conservative forum. Maybe someday it will be again.
