Yeah, right...
Good to see the WP is so worried about Evangelicals
If the Washington Post thinks evangelicals won’t vote for Trump then it is wrong.
Trump won the evangelical vote, so what are they talking about. Cruz was suppose to win this demographic, but Trump keep winning
Evangelicals actually turned out in decent numbers for Trump. He didn’t get all, but many voted based on other priories this time. He did pretty well in the south.
Evangelicals is such a broad range of voters nowadays.
Fact is, Ted Cruz’s base support was among the rapture-ready, dispensationalist wing of born-again evangelicals.
They are a small portion of the electorate—and their choice candidates have never materialized in the Republican party. The only reason Ted Cruz got as far as he did is that the primary calendar was heavily frontloaded with states with such concentrations of these people and the constant pumping by talk radio.
The majority of Evangelicals voted for Trump. It would be the Mormons who didn’t get their first choice.
Trump swep every county in evangelical South Carolina with the exception of three counties that went to lil Marco, how many did Cruz win?
ZERO.
The voters are not dummies.
Trump carried Evangelicals in Indiana.
Sad fact of the matter is that SCOTUS keeps pre-empting anyone we elect on social issues.
It’s regional not evangelical.As an example Trump got 49% of the born-again vote in Florida with 20% for Cruz.Newsmax May 9 article.
Drive by media.
WHat a bunch of BS! Plenty of angelic evangelicals have already voted for Trump in the Primaries!
I feel abandoned by the GOP because they tried to foist a guy with a theology which is seven parts Benny Hinn, two parts Jehova’s Witness, and one part David Koresh off as some kind of Christian political messiah.
God evidently is sending America a guy whose wife is working to replace our national sovereignty with a North American Union.
I don’t know how that can be because Trump won more evangelical votes than anyone else. The problem is some Christians confuse being a Christian with being a loser or being some sanctimonious type who feels superior to all the other sinners out there. Sometimes I wonder if they even read the bible because it is NOT filled with self righteous people who think they are God’s cream of the crop being lifted to leadership representing God. Thankfully we have a God who is the God of the prodigal son because we all fit in that category in some way or another. We all would be lost without the grace of Christ. There is no savior politician but Trump provides a shock to the failed system. There is no perfect to be had but he isn’t selling perfect hes selling a return to Americanism from internationalism and that is the first step to making things better.
Hey Ted Cruz took the Southern evangelicals for granted. Couldn’t be bothered with them. SO they happily voted for Trump.
I am an evangelical who voted for Ted Cruz, but I do not feel abandoned because of Trump’s win. The GOP abandoned me long ago, and now I see Donald Trump as the ONLY candidate capable of breaking the powerful inertia of our decline. We might sink anyway, but President Trump offers our best opportunity to halt the illegal invasion and right the ship before we slip into history.
They didn’t feel abandoned when we had a pro-gay, pro-choice Mormon who was “proud” to have “inspired the ACA (ObamaCare)”? Seriously?
God himself often used imperfect men for His purpose. The Apostle Paul started as one of Christianity's most zealous enemies. He approved the stoning of Stephen (Acts 7:58), and was a merciless persecutor of the church. Yet he was hand-picked by Jesus Christ to become the gospel's most ardent messenger.
God used the gifts He had given Paul, among them, a brilliant mind and a commanding knowledge of philosophy and religion. Pauls clear, understandable explanation of the gospel made his letters to early churches the foundation of Christian theology.
And God can use the gifts he's blessed Trump with as well if He chooses.
