But Trump said he was a Christian and had strong support among Christians.

So was Trump wrong to say that?

Should Christians be ignored by Trump then

Christians...bake that cake for the gays...that’s the way to get Democrats voters for Trump...

Well I’m pretty sure he nuked Sodom and Gomorrah.
And when he comes again and slaughters the rebels the Bible says that the blood will run as deep as the bridal of a horse.

The only difference is this... He is God and whatever he decides to do is right.
He is no longer the baby in a manger.
In the Old Testament just one of his angels slaughtered 186,000 Assyrians and he did it in less than 8 hours. When it comes to shedding blood God Almighty is not squeamish. We are in a season of grace and mercy but it won’t last forever.
So I think that your “no nukes Jesus” meme is off track.

In his defense (Cruz is not my first choice), it is a primary, not the general yet.

This reminds me a a story Tommy Lasorda tells. He was batting against a pitcher that made the sign of the cross before he started to pitch to each batter. Lasorda got up and after the pitcher blessed himself, Lasorda bless himself and yelled out to the pitcher “Even He can’t help both of us!”

If you don’t think God rained down death and destruction on his enemies you need to re-read the Bible.

God forbid that a Christian comstitutionalist conservative be marginalized people who claim to be the same.

Cruz would bring all the best of America back to the White House.

I have to agree. Everyone should spend some time at 270towin.com and try to come up with a plausible map showing how their preferred candidate wins the electoral vote. It's a sobering exercise. Statements like this from Cruz mean he has zero chance in any blue state and will have a hard time in the purples as well. My best guess is a Clinton-Cruz matchup would give a result like this. By contrast, I'd expect a Clinton-Trump map to look more like this.

The tone and content of the anti-Cruz sentiment at FR is surprising and resembles comments one might find on a leftist website.

Ted Cruz is a southern baptist. I have neighbors who are true dominionists, and there is no similarity. Our constitutional republic is not sustainable in a militantly secularist context. The whole of western civilization is predicated on natural law as given by our Creator and discoverable by reason. That is not dominionism. It is the beating heart of the American experiment. Cruz is right to focus on it.

Peace,

SR

You know if you are offended by Cruz talking to his “volunteers” in this manner...
You are probable on the wrong website!

As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.

Cruz’s remarks about the body of Christ are labeled “offensive”, and in post #71, he is called “the Christian taliban.”

And not a single Trump supporter objects.

Every day I receive confirmation that backing Cruz is the right thing to do.

Correction-—post 76, not 71.

Indeed...those who are only conservative during the campaign season need not apply.
