No decline in MZ Gen towards God

However, there is not a decline in people wanting to know about God. The 2021 and 2023 State of the Bible research shows even the newer generations have actual interest in God, and that makes sense because God created us and we all have an inheirently designed understanding of Him which we can clearly see his handiwork all around us.  Among American Gen Z: 49% of Gen Z ages 18-21 and 52% of Gen Z adults ages 22-26 say that their lives have been transformed by the Bible's message.  This generation shows such a significant interest in the Bible and the message of Jesus. Gen Z adults are extremely open to discussions about their faith and God's Word. 49% of Millenials read the Bible. Gen Z and Millennials are research trend shows they are growing "into" Biblical ideals, rather than growing out of them. Who have embraced Christianity, turned to Jesus, and state their faith is still meaningful to them?: 47% of Gen Z youth, 54% of Gen Z adults and 61% of Millennia...

Q: Most dont follow the Bible

Q: The teachings of the Bible... Does it really matter? It seems even most religious people don't follow them. Re: topic on the Lord's Prayer and generally about prayer, and what appears to be hypocritical lives of Christians. A:   The prayer isn't for religious people tho. It is only those born again . Prayer is communicating with God and aligning to His will. The Lord's Prayer is an example of how to pray to the Father [God]. God only hears the prayers of the redeemed. The prayer is likely known by 85% of the country due to vbs (Vacation Bible School) and a large majority went/going to church w grandparents and parents. So it is also similar to the 10 Commandments. People know "of" them. See: NeedGod.com  Q:  God only hears the redeemed? I'm not so sure of that. What about if the redeemed, "slip back"? That being said, I've seen many so called Christians "not" following the 10 commandments. A: good questions.  1. God's Word ...

The Bible? Who reads it

Who reads the Bible?                                         8/2022 The Bible is the most popular book of all time.  According to the 2021 State of the Bible 'study' >>  51% of Americans read the Bible.  More Americans are reading the Bible than in the last 10 years. It's the 2nd highest number of readers during that 10 year timeframe.  When thinking about their own usage, 24% of Americans say their Bible reading has increased this year. The 2021 study showed that 51% (or 128 million Americans) are Bible users this year—the highest percentage in four years, and the most in raw numbers since 2014. Could be due to Covid era lockdowns and more people refocusing on free-quiet time at home, thinking about spiritual things, thinking about, scared of, or being touched personally by deaths from covid. In June 2020, as COVID-19 began to spr...

census results Christianity decline

Latest Census results show Christianity decline? Some point to Islam as a growing religion. Let's look at this supposed trend in religion... In countries where Islam is listed as a growing religion.. it's misleading. It is more like 1. That country is importing Muslims thru immigration & "refugee" situations. But also, because most have 10 wives and 50 kids. So surveys or any census' would falsely appear that that religion is growing. When in fact it's NOT people converting to a religion of choice , it's 2. Simply people being born to a people group who claim they are that religion from birth. So it's deceptively misleading, and therefore easy to debunk.  If one looks at the facts of the number of people choosing to convert to or become a follower of a religion... that's where we should look at the data, but even that isn't accurate. 1. Even though all those religions are separated by religion; all religions and beliefs out side biblical C...
