A quotation, attributed to Mark Twain, has to do with "the reports" of his "death," which he is said to have called "exaggerated."

Much the same may be said of today's "reports" by wishful Progressive Movement cultists of the demise of Christianity in America.

A favorite Christian Anthem is "He Comes to Us," from the words of Albert Schweitzer:

"He comes to us as One unknown, without a name, as of old, by the lakeside, He came to those men who knew Him not.

"He speaks to us the same words: 'Follow thou me!' and sets us to the tasks which He has to fulfill for our time."

"He commands. And to those who obey Him, whether they be wise or simple, He will reveal himself in the toils, the conflicts, the sufferings which they shall pass through in His fellowship, and, as an ineffable mystery, they shall learn in their own experience Who He is." - Albert Schweitzer, 'The Quest for the Historical Jesus'

Progressive Regressive cultists do not understand yet that "His fellowship" is a spiritual and living reality to His followers.
