The Issue of Tolerance

Our pastors have allowed the idea of "tolerance"—accepting all false ideas as virtues—to persist in the minds of our church youth, without pushing back from the pulpit.

“Despite that stellar slate of biblical beliefs owned by evangelicals, it is easy to be deceived by those views.”

George Barna, New Research on Evangelicalism, August 6, 2024

The Reality of Syncretism

According to AWVI 2024 research, the dominant worldview among evangelicals is syncretism a mixture of Christian and non-Christian beliefs.

Fact: Nearly 64% of evangelicals** qualify as syncretists, rather than holding a consistent biblical worldview.

This contradiction arises because a true biblical worldview demands a coherent spiritual perspective that results in a lifestyle aligned with those beliefs. However, many church members **mix** Christianity with secular ideologies because pastors avoid controversial topics.

“The fear of man wins out over the fear of God. This is the crisis of evangelical leadership.”

The Responsibility of Pastors

Sadly, many pastors do not consistently preach sermons that address all aspects of a biblical worldview. This allows church members to hold a **mixture of Christian and non-Christian views**, leading to **spiritual compromise**.
