How to lovingly correct on "god" spelling

Why are "Christians" online in conversations or in quoting Scripture writing God with lower case? And how can a Christian admonish such a person rightly?

A: Well the person

1. Might not actually be a Christian and so they do not respect nor value God's name. 
2. It is also possible they didnt use a Bible app or search and copy a verse online, and instead typed it out but their phone didnt auto correct. 
3. There are some believers who type fast and do typos and 
4. Others who are new or weak in the faith (or in a sect that is religious but not born again) who do not revere God enough to always capitalize His name or Title as the Creator and Ruler of all creation. 
5. The phone might auto correct it to obscure word because of the algyrithum designed is by liberals of that phone maker and they didnt proof read before posting. 
6. They might have disability limitation visually or physically and just made an error. 
7. They may be Hebrew or similar nationality with English as second language. In some languages there are not capilital letters and they do not usually use romanization so when they think in two languages they default to the thought patterns of their first language. 

How to lovingly correct them?

You could reply like this:

Hi brother, I noticed a important typo in your post. Can you pls edit/repost and capitalize the "G"?... there is a diff between God the God and lowercase "g" false gods, and we should declare that to the world. God bless 🙂


And if they do not reply nicely, still be gracious towards them, as God's Spirit may convict them to do that rightly from now on.
