God's Not Dead: In God We Trust

It is shameful that many church leaders have become less comforting and more divisive using scare tactics. I do not feel my faith is 'under attack'. Jesus was a unifier, not a divider. No political party or leader can hold our full devotion. That belongs to Jesus alone. We choose peace that comes from joy, the strength found in loving our neighbors, and the grace in showing compassion by encouraging all people regardless of their social station in life.

This isn't just a vote; it's a reflection of our faith. Approaching this election, our hearts should be drawn to a path that reflects His teachings not the selfish nature of a man who deems himself 'chosen'.

Judging by what movies have super high ratings right now & the comments for this movie, I'm not sure a high rating from IMDb could even be considered a good thing. I gave it a 7-because it leaves room for more preaching, and I feel strongly that there is a lot more room to show the lacking integrity we see from the left side (& sometimes right) in politics-there's a pretty clear difference though-& it's obvious which side hates God. We need more movies like this one. It's shocking that many Christians do not vote-if you read this please do not hesitate to vote against a liberal government that wants to remove your freedom. They've removed voter i.d. Laws, made our border & security a national threat, and children having gender confusion is only a huge problem because of leftist ideologies that simultaneously want to remove God from every facet of our communities-which include government, education, entertainment, you name it!

If you love Jesus, if you love your country, you'll appreciate this movie!

So 9 minutes into watching I had to press the pause button, because I could not refrain myself from making a contribution. So, not having watched the whole move, yet, I decided to post a comment.

This is the fifth installment of the God's Not Dead franchise I believe. Now the first two installments I found extremely interesting and as I am a Christian I thoroughly enjoyed them.

But from then on I have noticed the franchise has gotten more political in its narrative.

Now I am a moderate conservative, and I dislike a lot of the new far left ideologies and views, especially on encouraging children in schools to express themselves what gender they are, and gender transitioning and the use of school bathrooms and locker rooms, all of which I vehemently disagree on.

But to me this government conspiracy to erradicate religion theme that the franchise has adopted makes me really uncomfortable.

I am going back to watching the rest of the movie which I already dislike after watching only 9 minutes.

We are in times when people who claim they are Christian and hold themselves up as the compass of how Christians should behave, have become completely confusing. This movie totally fails to show characters engaging the needed Self examination to restore the left leaning Who seem to align with Christian values more clearly in our culture wars and this leaves the right lacking the self-examination that faith requires. This means the movie is another failure and does not create dialogue or communication it just preaches. It is a dismal project.

Unable to be redeemed from this issue it makes no contribution whatsoever and is a waste of time.

Continuing in the christian persecution fetish trend of the past films, which I have inexplicably all watched for sheer entertainment value at their absurdity, this movie somehow manages to go the extra mile and contradict itself.

Did you know that there are more ordained ministers in Congress than ever before?

Also did you know that a christian can't get elected because government is anti-religion?

How does this movie manage to square these two "facts"? It does not. It just somehow doesn't even notice the contradiction. Congress is currently composed of somewhere around 90% christians. Yet this movie would have us believe that being a christian makes it almost impossible to get elected and that all of our elected representatives hate religion.

That in a nutshell is the absurdity of this film.

Well that, and also comparing the current state of the US government to the cultural revolution in China. Which is probably a scary statement to anyone who knows absolutely nothing about the cultural revolution.

If this is the best argument that can be made for a christian theocratic government in the US, then at least we don't have much to fear.
