So do the Baptists.

Consider very seriously what the bible tells us when someone calls the work of the Holy Spirit evil.

Without faith it is impossible to please God. Those who attack Jesus people who have faith, are what?

I could say Trump supporters fit one or two definitions and of course they could say the same about Cruz supporters.
