Some peoples values change every day it seems. Others base their values on the Bible that does not change. The Gallup polling company released its most predictable findings of the year. Asked if the state of moral values in America is "getting better" or "worse," 72% of Americans responded "worse." Although married, churchgoing, or Republican Americans were the most negative, Gallup pointed out, "No major demographic group evaluates moral values positively overall."
But here's the irony: Many of the Americans who recognize our moral problems are also the quickest to justify them. As a country, we have a higher tolerance than ever for divorce (68% believe it's morally acceptable), premarital sex (63%), out-of-wedlock births (60%), and homosexual behavior (59%). On two explosive issues--human cloning and polygamy--the public's support has actually doubled. Believe it or not, more Americans now have a problem with "wearing fur" (59%) than aborting a human life (42%). Only adultery lost ground in the battle over values--falling just a single point, from 7% approval to 6%.
If there was ever a time that our nation needed its pastors preaching without apology, it's now. This video features an ll year old boy telling how Jesus is in every book of the Bible. A pretty good sermon I would say. I just wish more Americans would read the Bible- it is our owners manual.
