"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD." For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts." There is absolutely no possibility of fitting our God into today's society. He is at odds with anything and everything natural man is for.
For example, He would be considered a racist, He chose the Jews to be His, over all other peoples. Israel was the head, the rest the tail; He definitely would be tagged anti-feminist. According to His teaching, every Christian woman is to be subject to her husband and obey him; the United Nations would kick Him out, for He said, "Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance"; He'd be known as a war-mongeral. For, said He, "I am a man of war"; they would try and arrest Him for hate speech. He plainly said, "Esau have I hated." He was, by contemporary standards, homo-phobic. For he commanded all the sodomites to be put out of the land; He would be called a narrow-minded, religious bigot, for He said there was only one way to Him, His Son; and the environmentalist would detest Him, for He said. "While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."
No amount of legislative laws will change any of the above, or any other truths found in His Holy Word! And educating our youth with, "science falsely called," will change nothing. Only a radical Spiritual change by the Spirit of God within the human heart will convert these worldly views into a Scriptural perspective. Paul tells us explicitly in First Corinthians, the only way to know the mind of God is to have the Spirit of God within us. Until this happens, God's ways and thoughts remain foolishness to the natural man. The Apostle tells us, He (the natural man) cannot know them."
Just as our God does not fit into this world system, neither should we, His children.
