RINO vs CINO

RINO = republican in name only. You know the type they claim to be a part of the republican party and support the party's core values while running for elected office but if elected they only give lip service to those values. When pushed to support the republican values of being pro-life, pro-family, pro-parental rights, pro-marriage,(understanding that marriage was established by God not man) and to support the governments primary function to protect the citizens from criminals and outside attacks, they jump ship. You know the latest example a certain US senator from the state of Pennsylvania. It is sad when someone is willing to deceive the people in order to get elected, but if we are paying attention there is usually enough evidence to reveal the individuals true positions. When exercising your right to vote it should never be cast simply based on party membership or what a candidate claims to believe but on the totality of the evidence. Then when you really think about it the harm they do is limited in scope and duration.

CINO = Christian in name only. You know the type they claim to be a believer in Jesus, a Church member and therefore a Christian but forget that christian means to be like Christ. They rarely attempt to study the values of Christ Jesus and the standards set by God for His family as provided in His word the Bible. They live their lives in a manner that is comfortable for themselves and change the Word of God to fit their own preconceived ideas, teaching others to do the same by their lifestyle. They justify or excuse sin, changing the word of God so it will not affect their lives. Using the descriptions given in the Bible of what a true believer in Jesus Christ is like there is not enough evidence to convict them of actually being Christian. When you really think about it the harm done is enormous in scope and has no end. Maybe that is why the Bible uses term of wolfs in sheep's clothing to describe the pretenders, as well as giving warning that whatever a person plants they will harvest. The ramifications from being a CINO is a very harsh reality.
Consider your choices in this life well for all will have to answer for those decisions come payday.
