SIGN OF THE TIMES: George Barna: ‘Christian’ Is Now a Generic Label

Scripture is the breath of God. It is as true as if God Almighty stood in the pulpit and spoke these words. That’s the reason Jesus said in Matthew 4:4: “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” Over and over again the Bible calls itself the Word of God.George Barna: “Too often, it seems, people who are simply religious, or regular churchgoers, or perhaps people who want a certain reputation or image embrace the label ‘Christian,’ regardless of their spiritual life and intentions.”

Pastor Dewey: America is crumbling…..it may survive but things will continue to get worse as people walk away from Jesus. America needs TRUE REVIVAL, will it take place? I hate to think what America will look like even in 3 months. Sharon and I have children and grand children like many of you. We are failing our children. Please Pastors no more HIGH SCHOOL PEP RALLY’S!!!! This is SPIRITUAL WARFARE!!! Satan is not playing games, he is destroying our country!!! Understanding Spiritual Warfare

Just 9% of self-identified American Christian adults hold a biblical worldview. I see it everyday! I hear it everyday! Satan does not hide anymore, he is all over! I was sharing yesterday at the Open Bible Ministry Church in Los Alamos that we all need to invite people to Church every Sunday, we cannot just sit back and complain. There was a lady yesterday in Church looking for a Pastor that speaks from a Biblical Worldview. Many are searching and many are being swept away by Satan. We need more Pastors like Pastor Paul Jaramillo. He is running for school board in Los Alamos to make a difference in the Kingdom. We all need to fulfill the Great Commission. Mature Christians need to seek the Lord to see if they should run for public office. What good are we if we do not stand for LIFE??????? For God’s babies????? What good are we????? The Church and Pastors cannot even unite for God’s babies!!!??????? I told the folks yesterday I envision Jesus giving me a report card when I get to heaven! It keeps me in check with my Lord.

OH LORD I CRY OUT FOR MATURE PASTORS AND CHRISTIANS! CHURCH LEADERS: You don’t divide your life into “secular” and “sacred” compartments. Instead, you rather enjoy communion with Him in all areas of your life—work, recreation, church and parenting. Toward that end, you regularly practice spiritual disciplines (e.g., meditation on Scripture, silence, solitude, community, confession, worship) to position yourself to practice His presence all throughout the day.

According to a new report from Arizona Christian University’s Cultural Research Center (CRC), just 9% of self-identified American Christian adults hold a biblical worldview. Even fewer (6%) hold a biblical worldview and consistently apply biblical principles to their lives.

The CRC says findings from its latest American Worldview Inventory show the need to nurture what the center calls “integrated disciples” of Jesus. “‘Christian’ has become somewhat of a generic term rather than a name that reflects a deep commitment to passionately pursuing and being like Jesus Christ,” says CRC research director George Barna. “Too often, it seems, people who are simply religious, or regular churchgoers, or perhaps people who want a certain reputation or image embrace the label ‘Christian,’ regardless of their spiritual life and intentions.”

Self-Identifying as Christian Isn’t Very Telling
