Americans are rejecting God and following their hearts to destruction and emptiness.
A sobering conclusion to a brand-new study is that it appears America “is on the precipice of Christian invisibility.” The new study from the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University reveals the five core beliefs rejected by 8- to-12-year-olds are: the Bible, absolute truth, means to salvation, the purpose of life, and success.
Director of Research, Dr. George Barna, states “children are following in the unfortunate spiritual footsteps of the generations that have preceded them,” and this trajectory leads to the total abandonment of biblical Christianity in record numbers.
In a discussion about a strong biblical faith in God and His Word, a recent guest on Worldview Matters profoundly stated you cannot give away what you do not possess. Research continues to show a decreasing percentage of Americans embracing the biblical worldview, including only 2 percent of parents of young children today.
What then, are they teaching and modeling for their children? Secularism, moral relativism, atheism, or religious pluralism.
Sadly, since God has basically been removed from our culture and government, how can the nation remain truly free and maintain individual rights?
Author and Washington Times editor, Cheryl Chumley commented on this new research due to the fact our rights and liberties come from God, and government serves only to protect those individual freedoms and rights. She concludes from this study that by removing God, America will instead get …” government granted; government disbursed; government redistributed — government of Marxism and communism.”

Unfortunately, this is an inside job. When Christianity went from a system of beliefs and obligations to God to “God as Santa Claus” and “pray and God will pay your mortgage payment for you,” it was inevitable for people to tune out.
Bingo. The Word of Faith and Prosperity Gospel folks helped destroy Christianity, and they continue to do so.
Just ask Joyce Meyer or Joel Osteen.
Indeed.
Thanks to govt schools, media, internet, and feckless churches.
How many men in this forum have actually made the choice to pull their children from govt schools?
Crickets.
FYI
Prosperity gospel theology is spiritual poison.
