American Christians Show Extreme Theological Illiteracy | Stand to Reason Podcast with Greg Koukl

About this sermon

Greg talks about a recent study that shows only 6% of American adults have a biblical worldview, then he answers questions about whether God is a puppet master and if it’s hypocritical to buy products from companies that promote things you disagree with but then not give money to the Salvation Army because they promote CRT. 0:00 American Christians display extreme theological illiteracy. 16:10 If God’s all-powerful, do we really have free will? 35:06 Am I a hypocrite if I buy products from companies that promote things you disagree with, but stop giving to the non-profits that do the same? NOTE: The article Greg read on the show incorrectly stated that 6% of American adults who identify as Christians have a biblical worldview. The correct stat is 6% of all American adults (9% of American adults who identify as Christian) have a biblical worldview, while 69% of Americans self-identify as “Christian." #StandtoReason #Apologetics #Christianity #FreeWill #ChristianLiving ————— MENTIONED ON THIS SHOW ————— Arizona Christian University study: https://www.arizonachristian.edu/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/CRC_AWVI2021_Release06_Digital_01_20210831.pdf Most adult US Christians don’t believe Holy Spirit is real — Study by Leonardo Blair: https://www.christianpost.com/news/most-us-christians-dont-believe-holy-spirit-is-real-study.html Reality Student Apologetics Conference: http://www.realityapologetics.com/ Greg’s podcast discussing how the Salvation Army is promoting CRT: https://www.str.org/w/salvation-army-promoting-crt Let’s Talk about Racism – The Salvation Army: https://www.salvationarmy.org/isjc/lets-talk-about-racism ————— CALL IN TO THE SHOW ————— Have a question or comment?
