I heard recently on Family Life Radio that a revised, politically correct Bible was about to be published.
How can someone dare to believe that it will be a work of God, rather than a work of Satan?
Have people already been conditioned by the government to believe that political correctness is always a good thing?
Can the word of God, which clearly points to Jesus Christ being the one and only way into heaven, possibly still be God's word if it condones other ways?
Do you see this as bringing us one step closer to the rule of the Antichrist?
What are your thoughts?

The Word of the Lord is a glorious sword, as it says in Hebrews, "sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart."
The last thing the Bible could ever be is "politically correct."
It is (as someone wisely pointed out above) offensive, and full of unpleasant truth along with all of the love and joy contained in it.
There's no way to "clean it up." Yes, there are lots of different translations, but the truest ones try to remain faithful and thoughtful to the meanings of the original scribes.

Polically correct Bible will not be possible. Sounds like some small fractured group of people has infiltrated a printing company and convined them this is something that should be doable.

my thought is that with anything politically correct is completely evil--so to speak. it stops each individual from being individual, we are being forced into thinking in one box and not being allowed to actually have opinion because it may offend someone out there, heaven forbid we can't offend anyone because it would cause great turmoil to their inner self, let's just be clones like the stepford wives .......

It isn't much different than the censorship that was performed by the original Catholic church 1600 years ago... " this book stays.. this book goes"......
Seek and you shall find... When you find you will be full of questions... Answer the questions and you shall know eternal life..without God.... For God is that which we create within ourselves.

Keep your eyes on the sky my sis and listen up for the trumpets
Weep and pray for those who would fall victim to this propaganda... and for us believers that we learn how to live our faith despite opposition for the time is coming when we well need to live as Christ and die for his names sake

a 'feel good' Jesus that preaches love and joy without repentance is a lie of the devil. (Genesis 3:4)

"He said to them, "You are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of men, but God knows your hearts. What is highly valued among men is detestable in God's sight." "
Luke 16:15 NIV

Do some research on the bible and you'll see that there were MANY different interpretations and the ones that fit in with people's egos were selected.
