If it’s in Time it must be a national trend.
I’m thinking that most of these statistics were compiled by Global Warming enthusiasts who had time on their hands.
Ephesians 6: 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.
14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,
15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.
16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one.
17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
“Bible belivin’ Christians”... except the parts of the Bible they don’t like, that is.
Time Ragazine has always had it’s finger on the pulse of evangelicals, oh boy that’s right.
I tell you what...
Ye ol frog in the boiling pot syndrome. Satan is very patient, he will slowly introduce a sinful concept and ramp up the temperature until it is to late.
Then Evangelical Christianity will die just like all liberal frauds that we have seen die out in this country. Sorry, but I place this squarely at the feet of too many IDIOT pastors who have turned service into rock festivals. You MORONS allowed the young people to become degenerates.
I actually hope these young ‘evangelicals’ leave the church for atheism in adulthood... for the church’s sake.
Look what happened to Anglicans, Methodists, Unitarians.
For crying out loud, some people are dumb they just run downt he path of destruction.
I would prefer an 80% atheist country as long as the 20% Christians were REAL Christians. All these fraud Christians supporting babykilling and sodomy are frauds.
Our evangelical pastor always polls the youth on an issue before teaching on theology.
Brain washing and threats work...for weak minds.
Is this the kind of propaganda we’ll see in the coming months? It was already at sickening levels, but to claim that one can be “evangelical” while being on-board with this sickness.. that’s amazing.
One evangelical here that isn’t changing his mind.
The Bible is correct.
We all have sins we like because of our hearts.
I like certain sins and therefore have weaknesses in those areas.
I don’t try to kid myself about it. Much less promote it in schools, tell people my sins are not sin, but are actually “good” and “God pleasing”, try to get a pride month to celebrate my sins, have parades about my sins I prefer, or go after people for saying my sins, are in fat, sins.
a lot of Christians get divorce, shack up and abort their children all that means is they are backslidders and not practicing Christianity.
Time mag = nihilist propaganda
I wouldn’t trust TIME to accurately report about Evangelical trends. There are a lot of things outsiders may see but not understand.
For example, in our Evangelical church, we have support groups for people who “struggle with same sex attraction.” An outsider might think that means we are embracing homosexuality, but it’s quite the opposite. The support group is an accountability group to encourage Christians to remain obedient to God, regardless of their fleshly desires.
That’s our Christian response to homosexuality, and there are a lot of people who welcome the way out and someone to tell them the truth instead of pretty PC lies that lead down a road of destruction. Churches are a place for sinners to gather, to learn about the Lord and to let him change your life.
We’ve decided to let homosexuals know that if they want to follow, or learn about, God’s plan for their lives, they can do so in our church. They soon learn that we worship a loving God, but he has standards that do not bend to our desires. I know at least one person that completely left the homosexual lifestyle because of her experience with our pastor and church body. She has lived a celibate life for about 5 years, and seems open to dating men should she get the opportunity.
No, no they’re not. Nice try guys, but no cigar.

New Age Spirituality and it's counterparts have come into many....the idea of commonality among the various faiths is highly sought today at all levels by the "invasion" that's happening in the churches....and it's going to get worse.
More fiction from Time. There has always been a liberal faction that supports liberal ideology. They have moved with the liberal push to accept it. That’s it and nothing more.
If anything I find it more repulsive than ever. I used to ignore it but now you can’t.
Also I love how liberals accept court rulings that support this “change of mind” theory. The public has changed its mind on Obama according to polls. But we are still stuck with him until the next election. The only polls that matter are at the voting booth. Except of course on liberal issues. Then the courts can claim the public has changed its mind according to the latest push polling and we all get stuck with it.
