Exactly.

This is coming from people who have no idea what a Pentecostal or Evangelical Christian is.

“Exactly.

Excuse me! I have many friends who are Pentecostal and have attended their services many times. They are Bible believing and faithful in their beliefs. Their methods of worship are uplifting to see, even if not my preference.

You’re doing the same thing Ted Cruz is doing and is counting on people like you to do; which is to confuse being against Ted Cruz to being against any form of Christianity. You’re going to fail and so is he because anyone who does such things is bound to eventually.

I have nothing against Christians, whatever their denomination. I do have a big time problem with manipulative, bald faced liars who use their faith to gain worldly gains. It’s wrong.

Ted Cruz, because his followers are doing just what he wants them to do, is bringing shame and degradation on a whole sector of Christianity by dragging them into the political cesspool.

Ted Cruz, the Baptist, Pentecostal, Dominionist, Conservative, etc., etc., is NOT glorifying the name of The Almighty or Our Savior any more than Jim Baker or any other religious posterer ever did; quite the opposite.

Paul who wrote both 1 and 2 Corinthians is referring to the Greeks /pagans speaking in tongues as their is no example in the Bible of anyone speaking to God in tongues other then pagans. Pentecostals can think 1 Corinthians 14 justifies said, but; the Bible records no incident of any believer ever speaking to God in any other than normal human language. You may refer to Acts written by Luke, specifically 17.22-34 where Luke says Paul spoke to the men of Athens. He spoke of the altar with the inscription “To An Unknown God.” the Greeks were the pagans who spoke in tongues. The bible is clear “that the Lord knows what we need and to say the Lord’s Prayer.”
