Attributes Of God

Two years ago, renowned researcher George Barna released the latest installment of his study on the theological beliefs of Americans. Not surprisingly, the results continue to reflect a downward trend in support of orthodox Christianity.

For example, only 51% of Americans believe God to be the “all-powerful, all-knowing, perfect and just Creator of the universe still ruling the world today” whereas just twenty-nine years ago 73% of Americans believed that to be true.

In a statement to the Christian Post, Barna observed: “The spiritual noise in our culture over the last few decades has confused and misled hundreds of millions of people.” He added: “The message to churches, Christian leaders, and Christian educators is clear: we can no longer assume that people have a solid grasp of even the most basic biblical principles.”

For this reason (and others!) I’ve been dedicating Thursday posts to “Theology Thursdays.” Each week we’ll continue looking at one aspect of biblical, orthodox Christian theology and why it matters.
