A few days ago, my wife and I were discussing Cruz. He per ports to be a man of God, loves Jesus, etc. Then we see his constant, incessant lying, back stabbing and name calling. I asked my wife who was raised a devout Catholic if Cruz would go to heaven or hell.

“He per ports to be a man of God, loves Jesus, etc.”

Then take him at his word and be guiltless. It’s true that no Christian is perfect. We all have a past, and we’re all works in progress even after salvation, some growing spiritually at a faster rate than others. But so what. If he truly loves the Lord, he’ll make it.

Spouting those Trump talking points dies not make them true. Please provide examples of “ lying, back stabbing, and name calling”.

And speaking of name calling, I assume you support the king of name calling and insults. Do I detect a bit of hypocrisy?

Even Christians can exhibit sinful/seedy characteristics and still be saved and bound for Heaven - doesn't mean they can't be hypocrites, etc. His Love and Forgiveness is greater than the best of us - if we accept Him as Lord and Savior.

Even Paul, who had met the risen Christ and then became one of the biggest carriers of the Word, lamented that he found himself doing things he would not so (sinful acts) and not doing things he would do (passing up opportunities for good works). No doubt in my mind he was saved and is in Heaven despite his continued human frailties as far as sinfulness goes.

Did your wife answer?
