Just 26% of Gen X and 16% of millennials believe that when they die, they will go to Heaven only because they confessed their sins and accepted Jesus as their savior, compared to nearly half of the generation before them, a new study has found.

The American Worldview Inventory 2021, a survey of the philosophy of life on American adults from Arizona Christian University, assessed the worldviews of four generations: millennials (born 1984-2002), Gen X (1965-1983), baby boomers (1946-1964) and builders (1927-1945). . . .

Nearly half of all boomers believe that when they die, they will go to Heaven only because they confessed their sins and accepted Jesus as their Savior, compared to only 26% of Gen X and 16% of millennials.

A staggering 90% of builders believe you treat others as you want them to treat you, while less than half of millennials agree.

Additionally, 43% of millennials stated they either don’t know, don’t care or don’t believe God exists compared to 28% of boomers, and 44% of millennials believe Satan is a real and influential, compared to 64% of boomers. . . .

On spiritual matters, Americans younger than 55 are far more likely to distrust the Bible and to believe God is uninvolved in people’s lives.

Interestingly, a majority of Americans call themselves Christian, ranging from 57% of millennials to 83% of builders.

Researchers warn that the beliefs and behaviors of younger Americans, especially millennials, “threaten to reshape the nation’s religious parameters beyond recognition.” . . .

Commenting on the study, George Barna, CRC director of research, said that Gen X and the millennials have “solidified dramatic changes in the nation’s central beliefs and lifestyles,” adding: “The result is a culture in which core institutions, including churches, and basic ways of life are continually being radically redefined.”

The American World Inventory corroborates an earlier study from Barna that found that two-thirds of teens and young adults (65%) agree that “many religions can lead to eternal life” compared to 58% of teens and young adults surveyed in 2018.

Additionally, 31% of teens and young adults “strongly agree” that what is “morally right and wrong changes over time, based on society,” compared to just 25% in 2018.

Recent survey data released by Gallup found that one in six Gen Z adults identify as LGBT — the highest percentage of any generation in history — and that number is likely to continue to increase.

Jacob Bland, the new president and CEO of Youth for Christtold The Christian Post that despite the challenges facing today’s young people, he looks toward the future with optimism. . . .

“Jesus has a way of being new and fresh for the circumstances of today, and He is certainly doing that,” Bland added. . . .

Share your prayers in light of the results of this recent study!

We, THE CHURCH, have a lot of work to do. JESUS IS COMING BACK SOON! We don’t want so many to find this TRUTH before it’s too late.

So what has compromised the Biblical realities of inerrancy [original languages of Hebrew & Greek]; the virgin Birth of Jesus; His crucifixion, death, burial, & resurrection; and the thousands of Biblical Prophecies that have been fulfilled to the letter? Why it’s clear that the seeker-sensitive nonsense, the watering down of Holy Scriptures to ‘say’ what compromised ministers spew from pulpits, the ignoring of clear commandments such as ALL stated in Romans Chapter 1 re. same sex abominations, and surrendering the Headship of Christ by ANY church to the 501c3 ploy of darkness are part of the answer to this horrible dilemma.

Let’s not forget the preoccupation with the Rapture, and escaping this fallen world… at the expense of several generations since ‘The Late Great Planet Earth’ was an international bestseller. I fell prey to much of this until soundly rebuked by the LORD in diligent study of Holy Scripture. What is the remedy? The Greatest Awakening in the history of mankind is on the near horizon, where our YHVH GOD will manifest His Presence & Power in such a profound way throughout the nations that ALL naysayers will be brought to the valley of decision, and many of our children & grandchildren WILL BE SAVED!
Proof is hard to ignore… even for an atheist like I used to be…

    Good expose on current situation! I hope and pray for revival and share my faith regularly; I am encouraged by scripture such as Joel “I will our out My spirit in the last days” and we are seeing His Spirit poured out; still, I shudder at passages like the 40+ times in Ezekiel where God says “They will know that I am the Lord when …” I am confident of this one thing: Any real Revival in our culture begins with God’s people!

Yes, I agree. Jesus has a way for every situation or any circumstance! Amen
We fight for our sisters and brothers the only way we know. Prayer! I believe God and He will establish! We demand Satan to let go. The Blood of Jesus is against you, Satan. Satan, the Lord rebuke you! Glory Hallelujah! Thank You Lord for setting the captives free! Amen
