A member of the press was going to ask Kasich about the Cruz Cult but was warned it's not a good idea while he's having a snack.

It’s a safe bet that many if not most who support Ted Cruz are not aware of the Cult that goes with that support, the kind of demon that they would be putting in charge of our nation. One that falsely professes to be a Christian but unlike anything most of us would associate with legitimate Christianity. It’s time for Cruz supporters to open their eyes and see what it is that has control over their judgment. They’re voting and advocating for a cultish figure, one not very different from Jim Jones and Jonestown.

None of them have claimed that Ted Cruz is “holy”. Please provide sources for your claim.
By the will, power and timing God presents. Human plans, powers, schedules are all doomed to collapse in due time. Part of the whole surrender thing to God’s plans, not those of any man.
“Although Trump said that he never asked God for forgiveness for anything, so how does that qualify him as a Christian in your opinion? Perhaps because he might go to a Church occasionally?”
hmmm...I never said I considered Trump a Christian.
Agreed.
Please provide a source.
“4. Kenneth Copeland”
I have always found this man to seem very, creepy and fake. God forgive me if I’m wrong, but I mean isn’t their “house” like a Tiger Wood’s sized mansion??
Donald Trumps father - Frederick Christ “Fred” Trump - was a founding member of the Amalgamated Flying Saucer Clubs of America. A religious cult active in the 1930’s.
Honest.
For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might be rich (2 Cor 8:9).
Vacating our institutions to be commandeered by the devil and his entourage is exactly why we are in the mess we are in right now. That is exactly what this rebellion against the "establishment" is all about.
How was America founded? By "poor" Christians who stuck their head in the sand and didn't want to deal with the real world? Hardly. Many were relatively wealthy Christians engaged closely with the world around them and making a difference for Christ AND their surroundings.
Re-commandeering Arts & Entertainment, Business, Education, Family, Government, Media and Religion is exactly what we freedom-loving Christians need to do to reinstate the Constitution as the Law of the Land and bring about a rebirth of political, economic, and spiritual freedom in America.
“None of them have claimed that Ted Cruz is “holy”. Please provide sources for your claim.”
You do realize it was likely a tongue in cheek type remark. Cruz is touting himself as the “Christian’s choice/candidate”. That in itself is 100% true.
Cruz’s run for President is done.
Let it die in peace.
Google “Cruz” and “anointed by God” to see what his father said about him.
An important caveat here, as these people also claim Francis Shaeffer as their own. There is a starting point which is scriptural - that Christians are to be salt, to influence and to preserve the culture they are in. Francis Shaeffer and C. S. Lewis said as much, and they are restating scripture in doing so. And, by the by, Bill Bright and others did some very good work spreading the Gospel back in the day.
Where things get weird, and NOT scriptural, is where there is this jump to take over and fuse with government operations, wordly conflicts, and the transfer of material wealth. That is NOT a part of Christianity as perceived by the past two thousand years of Christian thought. That is new, and dovetails with neocon secular agendas. This is something to be VERY wary of.
It is very much NOT a part of mainstream, low church Protestant thought. The name of Evangelicals is dragged through the mud being associated with this bizarre and frankly carnal and aggressive doctrine. It is essentially a rudimentary doctrine of jihad, camouflaged as Christianity.
It would appear the Rick Wells (whoever he is or whatever he represents) does not know the meaning of the word “cult.”
I don’t know of any Cruz supporter who is holding him up to be a “Holy man” as you claim. Could you please name one?
In SC Glenn Beck said that Cruz was sent by God to guide us thru the rapture. Later he said that Scalia’s death was part of God’s plan to get us to vote for Cruz. In UT Beck claimed that Cruz was the fulfillment of Mormon prophecy. Just a couple of weeks ago Beck compared Cruz to Moses. Just yesterday Beck said that God had extended the GOP primary so that everyone would have a chance to vote for good or evil (I’m guessing Trump is the evil one here). Add to that the number of times Beck has announced that he is fasting and praying over Cruz. Then there is Heidi who said that Ted was going to show us the face of God. Ted’s father is always inserting religious reasons for voting for Cruz, going so far as saying that he has been anointed by God to rule over us.
I don’t have time. Why don’t you do it for us?

Who is a Christian and who isn't is not our judgement call to make. There is only One that can make that call. However, I will point out that it took Paul (Saul) being struck blind on the road to Damascus before he turned from his wicked ways. Perhaps Trump will soon see his own "Come to Jesus" moment.
Some good posts of yours. I stay away from the religious discussions in most places, however, your posts on your father’s words struck a chord. When someone like Ben Carson brings religious thoughts into his discussions, I find them comforting. And he walks his own walk in deeds. Others, not so much. In fact, many of them creep me out.
I’m asking for documented sources, not hear say. Can you please provide them?
No way would I consider him Holy. He says he’s Christian. Following the life of Christ. Oh kay....
