Cruz has done nothing in the Senate......absolutely nothing. He filibustered the Senate to stop Obamacare and failed. He shut down the government to stop spending and he failed. He tried to stop federal spending on Planned Parenthood and failed. He tried to stop gay marriage and failed. He did stop immigration but that is because other Senators took the lead and he followed.

The only thing he singlehandedly had pass was Obamatrade which is a disaster for our country.

So he is not a conservative that is effective. He definitely isn’t a Christian except in Iowa.......haven’t heard a peep about the Bible in New Hampshire. And his integrity has been compromised.

That is why he is losing. Look I am one vote. I have little influence in the final decision on who is the candidate. You along with about 200 million voters have just 1 vote. That is it.

Cruz tried... but he was up against a mountain. ANY new President will be up against that same brick wall. If TRUMP thinks he can penetrate it with deals, he is in for a BIG SHOCK.
The Government is NOT a Real Estate Deal...

“He definitely isn’t a Christian”

I’ve read many posts on FR lately from posters who are saying Cruz is not a Christian. How does one know? Well, some are saying they know because he produces bad fruit.

Honestly, I wouldn’t suggest it, but we could all point fingers at other Christians at any given point in time and accuse them of producing bad fruit / not practicing what they preach / not walking the talk ... but just because someone says we’re producing bad fruit, doesn’t make it so.

Have you ever talked about others, as in gossip - have you ever wanted what belongs to someone else - have you ever said things you know are wrong - have you ever mistreated others or thought about it - have you made fun of someone’s looks - have you ever accused someone falsely? If so, you can be assured, someone is ready to point the finger and accuse you of living the life of a false Christian.

Cruz publicly acknowledges his Christianity. He professes publicly his human failings and his need for a Savior. He understands the need of seeking forgiveness from G-d, and he’s willing to ask others to forgive him, all in full view of the public.

This is all good fruit. But instead of recognizing it as such, he’s said to produce bad fruit ... he’s called names, such as Elmer Gantry ... and he’s accused of not being a Christian.

The question is, are you accusing him of not being a Christian based on something you know as truth? Are you positive? Is there any room at all for doubt?

If one day in the future, you were asked to give account for your words against another Christian, would you be able to justify the accusations as truthful?

If you’re a Christian — no matter who you support in this election — say your peace in some other way, but for your own sake, please use wisdom.

[To top it all off, he can’t seem to win. Because if he doesn’t recite a scripture, he’s then said to be an Iowa Christian]
