When did God become Politically Incorrect?

Answer 1

God isn't - it's Jesus that is considered politically incorrect. Franklin Graham once said he can use the name God in conversation with no adverse affect no matter where he goes, but that the minute he uses the name Jesus he immediately received resistance. My opinion is because when people hear "God" they can substitute their own morally relative god in its place and it is socially acceptable, but when confronted with Jesus they have to face the truth and not their own idea.

Answer 2

God was and is never incorrect, politically or whatever you want to say, God created everything to be perfect but it was destroyed by sin and man and our fall away from God, so now we toil on the earth waiting for Christ to come again to sweep us up into the clouds and take us finally to our true home. The people who call Him "incorrect" do not want to face their sins and their evil desires for their hearts are hard and the days we live in is evil, the end is near, watch and observe the prophets and prophecies that were fulfilled and are to be fulfills soon. The time as come, the harvest is near completion. He will come as a thief in the night.

Answer 3

Jesus Christ says to his disciple in John 15: 18 -20: "If the world hates you, you know that it hated me before it hated you. If you were of the, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, ' A servent is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you."

He says later to his disciples in John 16: 33: These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."

There are other places that it says that the world will turn(and has turned) against Jesus Christ and His followers. The interesting thing is that He has already said it would happen, so basically, they are just reassuring those who believe in Him.

The question I would like to ask is: what other religion is being persecuted, or being made politically incorrect, in this counrty/world? Maybe something to think about. And another question: Why do this to a faith that basically teaches(aside from that fact the Jesus Christ is God and the only way to Heaven) that one should love God and love their neighbor(Friends, family, enemies, everyone.), A faith based totally on Love and forgiveness?

It looks to me that there is something out there trying bring down Christ.

How could a person/any true Christian, who is devoted to God’s Kingdom favour one side or the other in a conflict between factions of the world? Had not Jesus said of his followers: “They are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world”? (John 17:16) This position of Christian neutrality was not one that the world in general would understand.
Nevertheless, because of recognizing the seriousness of the matter in the eyes of God, each one of them is firmly determined to remain “no part of the world.”—John 15:19; Jas. 4:4.

Regarding political involvement, what do secular historians report as being the attitude of those known as early Christians?

“Early Christianity was little understood and was regarded with little favor by those who ruled the pagan world. . . . Christians refused to share certain duties of Roman citizens. . . . They would not hold political office.”—On the Road to Civilization, A World History (Philadelphia, 1937), A. Heckel and J. Sigman, pp. 237, 238.

“The Christians stood aloof and distinct from the state, as a priestly and spiritual race, and Christianity seemed able to influence civil life only in that manner which, it must be confessed, is the purest, by practically endeavouring to instil more and more of holy feeling into the citizens of the state.”—The History of the Christian Religion and Church, During the Three First Centuries (New York, 1848), Augustus Neander, translated from German by H. J. Rose, p. 168.

An example of these is seen by those who express the same principles as did the 1st. century Christians:
Historian Brian Dunn stated: ‘Jehovah’s Witnesses were incompatible with Nazism. Most important of the Nazi objections to them was their political neutrality. This meant that no believer would bear arms, hold office, take part in public festivals, or make any sign of allegiance.’ (The Churches’ Response to the Holocaust, 1986)

In A History of Christianity, Paul Johnson added: “Many were sentenced to death for refusing military service . . . or they ended in Dachau or lunatic asylums.”

Answer 5

What a Question Since when does God have anything to do with politics?

Answer 6

God is NOT Politically Correct.

Answer 7

i will answer those in opposite order because it style of feels setting up this type. The governments of mankind should be and could be abolished using their thievishness and greed exhibited through religious expression. Politics have continually been incorrect. that's only how the game is performed. God needed it that way, he were given it that way, and it is going to quickly end that way.

Answer 8

Since He is God. Politically correct would be not calling sin, sin! Like calling theft, kleptomania. Whoredom, free spirit, homosexuality, acceptable. I'm with God. It's the politically correct moronic, atheistic, ACLU loving people in our country that fight for free speech, but denounce a child the free speech to say she wants to thank Jesus Christ for helping her achieve a 4.7 G.P.A. and become valedictorian of her class.

I'm sorry, was I venting. (Good) Oh I love this Yahoo answers.... and they give me points to, Only in America.

Answer 9

In the U.S. professing a belief in the Christian god is VERY politically correct. However, that has nothing to do with God himself.

Answer 10

Greetings,
When a woman of the name of Madelline Albright decided that the pledge of allegiance in schools was offensive to her son as it contained the word GOD. This woman was allowed to appeal all decisions made on this court case to the supreme court and the ruling was upheld in her favor. Mainly that a student should not mandatorily have to say the pledge of allegiance should that student find it offensive to their lifestyle beliefs.
