That makes the majority of Americans open to spiritual deception.

Very true. The intentionally non-committal “spirituality” without acceptance and obedience to the one true God is just an open invitation to be influenced by demons masquerading as all kinds of things. And in the nominally “Christian” world, those in the charismatic movement are similarly wide open to deception because they prioritize ecstatic emotional experiences and direct revelation from sources they refuse to test over the Gospel and true revelation provided in scripture. Both groups are being led by their emotions, which is the surest path to spiritual deception.

And for those that do “accept and obey the one true God” and “ test revelation against the Gospel and true scripture” but don’t attend formal religion with the hypocrisy and belief that one is born a christian; along with other specific beliefs that are not in the Bible but imposed by various denominations?
