Non-practicing Christians

Stephen Bullivant’s Jun ’18 Pew study report stated that only 22% of Germans attend church once or more per month.  There were several other nations in the European Union listed with percentages.  “For this study Pew set the minimum level of attendance at once per month to be a practicing Christian.”  Only once per month?  I wonder what God thinks about that.  “The 46% of Europeans who identify as non-practicing Christians is significant not only because their numbers continue to grow compared to practicing Christians, but because they hold beliefs that stand in stark contrast to orthodox Christianity.”  Among other things, because they no longer believe in the God of the Bible, they are “Declaring belief in some numinous spiritual force that fits the imagined belief of what they would like God to be, they most often reject the stories, events, lessons, and message of the Bible.  They are overwhelmingly in support of gay marriage and abortion at a far higher rate than practicing Christians, two issues that set them at odds with traditional Christian values.”

Mr. Bullivant also points out, in many European countries “religiosity is no longer seen as normal or natural.  “Non-practicing Christians is an oxymoron but was used to be able to conduct the study.” – Stephen Bullivant

Get Used To It?

A gardener took great pride in caring for his lawn.  But one year it grew full of dandelions.  He tried every method and product to get rid of them, but nothing worked.  Exasperated, he wrote the Department of Agriculture explaining all that he had done.  “What shall I try next?”  he wrote.  “Try getting used to the,” came the reply.

Too many Churches & Church people seem to have done that with sin but Jesus The Christ has not given permission for His followers to do that.

The problem a lot of people have is they want the baby in the manger, and loving part of God; But they can’t handle the fact that he is also a holy God and a God of judgment. He is angry with the ones He calls “wicked” and makes it very clear who they are in His holy book, the Bible.  Yes Jesus loves us he died once for all. But for the people who never repent he will say to them depart from me ye worker of iniquity I never knew you. Every knee will bow to him but sadly for some it will be too late for them.

The Children are being Indoctrinated

“The notion that the State should do that which is explicitly (and purposefully) reserved for the family and the church has become so normal after generations of State-run children’s mind-sculpting that most professing Christians in the land don’t even recognize this profound problem as a problem.

Ask a typical evangelical American – including most “leaders” within the church – whether State-run mind-molding of children should be acceptable within a Christian worldview and you’re likely to hear some version of: “But I went to public school and turned out just fine, so obviously it’s okay to send kids to public schools.”

When someone gives you that answer – or any of its numerous variants – you know that you are speaking with a thoroughly programmed disciple of the State who is so thoroughly programmed that they don’t even see it as programming…which is, of course, the end-product goal of State-run children’s education.”

David Webb, “Faster than CNN .More powerful than a witch. Able to build tall buildings in a single bound. Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird. It’s a plane. It’s Donald Trump! Yes, it’s Donald Trump – strange visitor from another party who came to the presidency with powers and abilities far beyond those of corrupt men. Donald Trump – who can change the course of mighty America, bring back steel in his bare hands, and who, never disguised as mild-mannered, fights a never-ending battle for truth, justice and the American way.”
