WHAT IS MY ATTITUDE TOWARD THE BIBLE? A new study by Barna shows that a large number of young people in America have a very negative view of the Bible. According to the study Millennials and the Bible, 27% percent of Millennials (ages 18-29) agreed with the statement that the Bible is a dangerous book of religious dogma used for centuries to oppress people, and 38% label the Bible mythology. Yet 62% of Millennials admit that they never read the Bible, meaning they have no personal knowledge of it, but are merely spouting opinions they have been taught. Only nine percent said they are curious about whats in the Bible when they see someone reading it. RESPONSE: 1. The most important question is what is MY attitude toward the Word of God!? 2. While the Bible continues to stand the test of time and it spans the globe-- nevertheless, Gods Word is not in a popularity contest! God is not WORRIED... but unless you are a true Child of God, you should be-- 2 Peter 3:1-10 3. THE ANVIL OF GODS WORD Last eve I passed beside a blacksmiths door And heard the anvil ring the vesper chime; When looking in, I saw upon the floor, Old hammers worn with beating years of time. How many anvils have you had, said I, To wear and batter these hammers so? Just one, said he; then with a twinkling eye, The anvil wears the hammers out, you know. And so, I thought, the anvil of Gods Word, For ages, skeptics blows have beat upon; Yet, though the noise of falling blows was heard, The anvil is unharmed - the hammers gone. John Clifford
