Barnaby the latest survey found that most Christians do not believe that the United States "is the actual existence of Satan," do not believe "the Holy Spirit is the living individual"; for them is a sense of just two.
Bana by telephone survey with 1871 adults claiming to be Christians, carried out two visits. They come from 48 states, 873 the first visit in January 2008 to February, and the remaining 998 visits carried out in November 2008. For Satan's view, the survey found that nearly Christians very much agree with, or rather agreed that "Satan is not a living entity, is only a symbol of evil" to describe this. In contrast, only half of the Christians expressed the belief that "Satan is real"; 26 percent of them strongly opposed to the "just a symbol of Satan" is, and that is quite opposed to 9 percent. All the respondents were about 8% not sure how to treat the existence of Satan.
Interesting phenomenon is that most Christians believe that one can be spiritual forces (such as the devil and evil spirits), but the same group of people believe that Satan is merely a symbol of evil. Spiritual strength of two-thirds of Christians agree is real (30% strongly agree; 25% rather agree).
As regards the views of the Holy Spirit, most Christians do not believe that the United States, "the Holy Spirit is a living force." 58% of respondents strongly agree or somewhat agree that "the Holy Spirit is the existence of God or a symbol of the ability, but not an individual or" this sentence. Only one-third of respondents were opposed to "not just a symbol of the Holy Spirit" is. The remaining 9 percent said they do not know.
Barnaby has a investigating the discovery of more worth noting. Only about half of that is just a symbol of the Holy Spirit of the respondents, while recognizing the teachings of the Bible is absolutely correct; and on the Bible clearly said, "the Holy Spirit is the strength and the existence of God, it is not only a symbol."
"Most Americans, while claiming to be Christian, but still for the supernatural and can not interfere with the ability to have doubts about the natural world." Bana George, founder of the investigation. Barnard said. He also tried to explain this phenomenon, pointing out that Hollywood movies often described the devil and docile Obviously, people think that Satan the devil is not as terrible as the Bible said.
"It's really difficult for individual achievement as the central, self-and independent people to believe that their life is to be that the power of the naked eye can not see the impact." Bana went on to say.
Christians for the United States do not believe in supernatural forces, and also to show in their faith in Jesus Christ. Barnaby The survey found that one-fifth of the respondents agree with the Christian "Jesus Christ lives in the world committed a crime when the" argument, and quite agree with the other 17%; this way of thinking is with the orthodox teachings of Christianity " Jesus God, he is completely flawless and the "difference.
