Hmmm what am I more skeptical of, polls or the intellectual capacities of millennials?

Whew, will have to give that some thought.

“The survey of more than 4,000 U.S. adults online and by phone suggests Americans are conflicted about the central figure of Christianity and have failed to successfully pass on their faith to succeeding generations.”

4,000 adults do not speak for all Christians. Surveys create news, not report the true status quo.

That was the whole point of Jesus dying for us. If he had sinned he could not have been a blameless sacrifice and able to pay for our sins.

I wonder what percentage of these people would claim that they themselves are not sinners. My guess is... most of them.

Soros spin. Fake polls. Tired of the SOS from the left.

Wrong. Satan did try to trip Him up, and failed. The Deceiver thought that he could take advantage of the human form that He took on, and got smacked down by His Divinity. He was the Unblemished Lamb for the final sacrifice. John the Baptist even said that he was not worthy to tie His bootlaces.”It is finished” He said.

How any Americans does it take to turn the house around while some one holds the light bulb?

Maybe they polled leftist who thought it was wrong of Jesus to say “go and sin no more”. How intolerant of Him.

Polls are not biblical truths. They can give insight into other matters if they are about useful things. Oh well.

Actually, this is a pretty deep subject.
He was without sin, sinless, and pure. Yet He became sin for us.
He personally identified Himself as a sinner, because He stood in our place (e.g., Psalms 38, 69).
He identified with His people, so we could identify with Him.
He took our sins upon Him, and He gave us His spotless robes of Righteousness.

2 Cor 5:21 (paraphrased) For God made Him [our Lord Jesus Christ], who knew no sin, to be sin for us, who knew not righteousness, that we might be made the Righteousness of God in Him.

The president of the United States cannot divulge secret information.....if he divulges it, it is no longer considered secret.

Jesus, (God) cannot sin...whatever He does cannot be considered sin...He is God Who determines what sin is..

I wonder how many of those polled have actually read the Bible. We all know that He was without sin in order to fully bear our sins in the ultimate sacrifice. We know that He was here in human form yet fully divine and was tempted.

Did Jesus turn the water into wine at a gay wedding or did he discriminate?

I’m convinced the absolute worst thing to say of the Lord or the Father in Heaven is that they are sinners or liars. I shudder at the very thought of even thinking it-—and its impossible for the ALmighty to be either one. Utter fools who fear not the Holy One of heaven.

I have great faith in Christ, very little faith in future Americans. My beautiful nation is doomed.

This was a screwy survey that involved internet responses. They have no way of knowing if they had Christian respondents. It’s a typical lie to make Christians think what Obammy said is true - we are no longer a Christian nation... It is designed to demoralize Christians.
