Underlying the philosophy of political correctness is the idea that everyone is equal and the same and thus life needs to be fair. Equality among people and the dignity of each person is very congruent with scripture and the Kingdom of God (see Matthew 20:1-16). But the latter concept forcing all people to believe and endorse the idea that “everyone is the same” and that “life has to be fair for all” is not so holy. The idea of fairness is childlike. In fact, this latter notion is highly corrosive and anti-Biblical. God wants all of us to go to heaven and he if one makes that decision for Christ at the very last moment before death, God rejoices over that and opens the heavenly gates for that person. That place in heaven is reserved for that “last minute Christian” and for those who commit to Jesus at a young age and live many years in the Kingdom of God. This is essentially one important teaching you will discover in Matthew 20: 1-16, the Parable of the Workers in the Vineyard. One very important factor in this analysis is that if we support the philosophy “that everyone is the same,” then we effectively place limits on human freedom and individual expression. Recall what the scriptures say in Galatians 5:1, “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.” That very nature of freedom rests on living a holy life and continual renunciation of sin. Slavery is a product of ingulging in sin and then being ensnared by it. Jesus Christ breaks those chains of dependency. And if one is a sinner all through life then comes to Jesus and gains heaven, many will conclude “that is not fair” to the one living their whole life in Christ. But life is not fair. If you think life needs to be fair and that everyone needs to “be the same” then think again. Read your Bible and look closely at the illogical thread of arguments flowing from the worldly, left-leaning philosophy called “political correctness.” At closer look, it is certainly not Biblical correctness.
