Watched a programe on the God channel last nightl. Very interesting. But in it this young man going through crisis needed to be told the story of Christ. If you don't go to church don't you pick it up from Christmas films and TV. I thought most people knew the story and many knowing it choose to reject it.

No. In an experiment recently children were shown pictures of people and all recognized Ronald McDonald but not Jesus.
The world has become so superficial that solid values have been superceeded by glitz and commercialism. The attainment of the really Good Life is now an upstream swim against the pollution bombarding us.
We live in a world where most psychiatrists and psychologists have for decades been teaching a value-free lifestyle with no consequences to one's actions.
Has a bigger lie ever been swallowed by a nation? Yes, and those were conquered by others. A great nation, as recorded history has shown, sets itself up for conquest by eliminating its morals and values.
Eastern Euopean national leaders are inviting churches into their countries to restore values that were destroyed by communism at the same time the western nations have become more secular and profane.
Frankly, the next president of the USA needs to be a man of principle and organization because this nation is unraveling fast.

Jesus is not a legend... or a story... or a film version of either... He is historically... and CURRENTLY... FACT!
He is the Son of God... the King Pin... on which the trinity depends... FATHER... SON... and HOLY SPIRIT... all... are ONE and the SAME!
You accept Jesus as the Christ child and the Son of God... you accept the holy trinity!
Sadly... once a Christian country... great Britain issued Christian Bibles to all school children... and held morning service every day in schools where, Christianity was taught... today... it is not so!
Our children have lost their moral compass by losing out on Christ's life story as our Government and educationalists pay lip service... to every other faith... allow them to form groups and open schools... and dictate what can or can't be taught inside our schools... except our own Christian faith... on which our democracy and laws are founded... for fear... we might offend those of other faiths.
Which is why so many UK Christians... must now stand against the serious and disturbing anti-Christian movement that is sweeping through our land! And why so many of us come in here!

The truth of Jesus Christ is lost on many in the west, because of the Hollywoodisation of the Gospel. Until the recent advent of "The Passion of Christ", and "The Nativity" very little of Biblical substance came along.
Be Blessed in Christ Jesus !

Egypt, by fact his mom and dad fled there whilst Herod sought to kill each and every of the firstborns and what's now Israel and Jordan. no longer something is quite time-honored of his existence between the age of roughly 8 and his early 30s. Legend has it, although, that he travelled with Joseph of Arimathea and got here to Britain. The Phoenicians easily traded with Cornwall for tin at that element, so that's, a minimum of, plausible. all of us comprehend that his cousin John baptised him (no longer into the Christian faith, by the way, Potteress - Jesus grow to be on no account a Christian interior the experience meant on the instant!) whilst he grow to be approximately 30.

There are people that have been raised in the church their whole lives and still do not know Jesus.
That being said, the number of people being raised in the church today pales to what it once was.
50 years ago you could pretty much assume that any given person had at least attended Sunday School classes as a child and would at least know the basic stories.
That sadly is no longer the case.

Yeah. I think this person was an exception. I know several Atheist families and their kids just absorb that stuff through the culture.
My children are Atheists, and yet, they sing songs about Jesus' birth in their school and have been evangelized by their friends literally since 1st grade.

Wth? Do you not live in this world with the rest of us? The majority of the world has been Christian at one time or another. Yes, we all know the story of Jesus. Go watch the news and stop judging it on one idiotic story you read or saw.

It is easy for Christians to sit a laugh at let's say Hindu's or Muslims because they have been brain washed from birth that their Jesus is the nly way.... However from the other side of the fence the Bible is pretty funny too.... It's full of magic and Giants, sex, murder, Zombies, fire and the whole 9... I personally think its all just Bull ****!

I'm an atheist, but I know much about that myth. I find that I know more about the myth than most Christians. That's because I used to be a Christian, and it took a lot of study of religion and introspection before being able to break out of that superstitious belief.

Even in the west, I would agree that most people don't know the real story about Jesus.
