God's Not Dead: In God We Trust

Disgusting, Anti-American propaganda. We live in a country with a separation of church and state so no NO religion gets to decide the lives of others. We sadly those who make this film want their own equivalent of Myslim Sharia law.

You're free to worship as you like, just not to force others to worship as you like. To think otherwise is a slap in the face of America's founding fathers.

Now to the actual movie, poorly written, trite and hysterical. Lackluster performances from nearly everyone. Where did the budget go? Not to the sets. Not to the actors. Not to a competent director. I'm assuming into the producers pockets, like so many other hucksters that couch their scams in a religious cloak. A waste of time, money, and film space.

A money grab from the simple-minded viewers who the makers of this series of film know how to play like a fiddle.

Look. I'm a Christian. I love my faith. I love religious freedom. But my goodness, this movie deserves -15 stars. It's another in a long string of poorlg written and acted Christian movies that don't seek to actually share God's message and instead want to be persecuted and right. I left evangelicalism for a reason.

Also, for anyone saying "this country was founded on Christian values!!!" The founding fathers were deists. Most of them were not Christian. Religion should not be a part of politics. This is a country for the people, and unfortunately for evangelicals, people are rejecting evangelicalism in unprecedented droves. I hate this movie. I despise its message. Because this isn't a movie about religious freedom, it's about Christian nationalism. Jesus rejected it, and I do too.

This movie is why Christian entertainment is not beating the allegations that Christian media is just bad. CS Lewis and the Chosen are really holding the line tbh.

As a Christian myself, this movie was hard to get though. This is why people dislike Christians so much. Christian teachings don't belong in government, sure a Christian can allow their beliefs to influence something where they are, but it doesn't mean forcing Christianity on others.

If a Christian is in a position of power they have, they shouldn't get up on a podium and tell the world they have to follow Jesus. This movie made atheist look like the worst people on the planet. While in fact there are so many atheist that are much nicer than Christians. It's obvious this movie was shaming the left. Im independent, I don't think politics should ever rule someones life but putting one side down to lift the other up isn't okay. Both sides have good and bad policies.

As Christians we should be loving and open to everyone. Jesus cared for sinners, gave free things to the poor. Jesus wouldn't talk about the left (or the right) in the manner this movie portrays.

If Pure Flix was brave they would make a "God's Not Dead: Church Awaking" As a Christian I have absolutely no desire to go to church anymore. Too many churches say they care until someone is in need like food, gas, etc and they just say, "We will pray for you" and don't help. The generosity of the church should go back to Acts when people just gave to help others. The church is supposed to be a light, its lost it. Too many horror stories of women getting se*ually harassed by pastors. Too many churches are just about the lights and sound, caring a little too much about how the band looks and sounds rather than just loving people and meeting them when they are at.

Churches have lost grace & compassion for others. Churches are about show & fun now, where churches used to be a place for the broken. People don't notice anymore if you leave, people don't check in, people go to church and act like a snob to others the next day, too many churches argue over small things in scripture like the end times or if they should celebrate Halloween or not. Then those that enjoy Halloween, other Christians attack them saying its sinful, but the one dressing up and getting candy doesn't have the convention its wrong. If you are personally convicted to not do Halloween, cool, but don't shame others for doing it.

And when someone asks a Christian about a hard topic, like suffering Christians are really bad at discussing it. They use too many "Christianeese" language. Like just saying, "Oh well if you trust in Jesus God works all things together for good" that's something you tell a Christian, not an unsaved person. You have to walk through a few things step by step and not just jump on "Oh Jesus loves you, trust him everything will be okay"

If Pure Flix really wanted to make an impactful movie, focus on church issues. That should be their next God's Not Dead movie. Because there is a serious issue in the church.

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'.

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.
