Let's take that one step further and also throw into the mix this comment,
You miss the point of both Christianity and the First Amendment. To the prior: “… and in all things – charity”, and to the latter freedom of religion and expression is NOT limited to only that which squares with one’s own position. So there is no Constitutional nor Christian justification for Cruz and Huckabee to NOT support this lady, even if they don’t agree with her brand of theology. This is what TRUE tolerance is about,,,Oh really?! Then please explain this,
See here for a full description of the interview in question.
Huckabee and Cruz should be all over this complaint by the logic presented by the comment. But, alas, only the "right" GOD counts, ",,, By that I do not mean Allah, Buddha, etc., but rather I mean the YHWH – the great “I Am”, the God of the bible, Judaism and Christianity."
[Please note that I only use this complaint as a counter example of the Rights hypocritical stance on "religious freedom". I have yet to read the complaint nor any documents or articles concerning this complaint other than a precursory view. I provide Cenk Uygur's, host of the The Young Turks, break down as a preliminary overview but I do not necessarily agree with him without further examination.]
But I digress,,,
Kim Davis apparently has become a Christian martyr to some Evangelicals, including former governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee and United States Senator Ted Cruz. Both men are Southern Baptists seeking the office of President of the United States.Cult NewsDoes Kim Davis believe Mike Huckabee and Ted Cruz are condemned to hell? - Cult News
However, what Huckabee and Cruz don’t know about the Kentucky county clerk recently jailed for her stand against gay marriage is that she believes that all Christians that don’t subscribe to her sect’s specific beliefs will be denied salvation and apparently spend eternity in hell.
Davis belongs to the Solid Rock Apostolic Church in Morehead, Kentucky. Solid Rock is a member of Apostolic Pentecostal Churches and Ministries and is listed at its directory for Kentucky.
The Apostolic Church website lists “60 questions on the Godhead,” which specifically deny the existence of the trinity as believed by the overwhelming majority of Christians, including Mike Huckabee and Ted Cruz.
The Apostolic Church website also explains “Why We Baptize in Jesus’ Name,” which excludes the efficacy of any other baptism formula, such as those done in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit., which represents what Apostolic Churches consider the false doctrine of the trinity. This “formula of baptism” is essential for salvation. As the Apostolic Churches website states, “Out basic and fundamental doctrine shall be the Bible standard of full salvation, which is the absolute essentiality of repentance, baptism in water by immersion in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins, and the baptism of the Holy Spirit, with the initial sign of speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance.”
The Apostolic Church further concludes, “We believe the Bible teaches that the above statement to be essential and not subsequent to salvation.”
What this means is that anyone, including Evangelicals like Mike Huckabee and Ted Cruz, are required to meet these requirements or they have no salvation and will apparently be condemned to hell. According to Kim Davis’ beliefs the pastor and former governor of Arkansas and the United States senator must renounce their false beliefs about the trinity and be re-baptized only in the name of Jesus and thus become true believers. Anything less is unacceptable to God according to Davis and her church.
