Do you believe in God? If so, you belong to a portion of the population that is steadily shrinking. Yes, a majority of Americans still think that God exists, but the trend is clearly going in one direction.
So are we headed down the same road that so many post-Christian nations in western Europe have already gone down? According to a shocking new survey that Gallup has just released, the percentage of Americans that believe in God has plunged to the lowest level that they have ever recorded…
The percentages of Americans who believe in each of five religious entities — God, angels, heaven, hell and the devil — have edged downward by three to five percentage points since 2016. Still, majorities believe in each, ranging from a high of 74% believing in God to lows of 59% for hell and 58% for the devil. About two-thirds each believe in angels (69%) and heaven (67%).
74 percent may sound high, but it is important to note that this includes anyone that may believe that any sort of a “god” exists.
So this figure would include people from many different religions.
Overall, the percentage of Americans that believe in God has fallen by a whopping 16 points just since 2001…
Gallup has used this framework to measure belief in these spiritual entities five times since 2001, and the May 1-24, 2023, poll finds that each is at its lowest point. Compared with 2001, belief in God and heaven is down the most (16 points each), while belief in hell has fallen 12 points, and the devil and angels are down 10 points each.
Church attendance has been steadily declining over the years as well.
In fact, a different Gallup survey discovered that church attendance is down by about 10 percentage points since 2012…
U.S. church attendance has shown a small but noticeable decline compared with what it was before the COVID-19 pandemic. In the four years before the pandemic, 2016 through 2019, an average of 34% of U.S. adults said they had attended church, synagogue, mosque or temple in the past seven days. From 2020 to the present, the average has been 30%, including a 31% reading in a May 1-24 survey.
The recent church attendance levels are about 10 percentage points lower than what Gallup measured in 2012 and most prior years.
The American people are increasingly losing faith in organized religion, and it certainly doesn’t help that almost every day there is a story in the news about some member of the clergy that has committed some sort of horrible crime.
For example, just today I came across a story about an “executive pastor” that stole $130,000 from his own church…
A New Hampshire executive pastor has been sentenced to 18 months in prison for stealing around $130,000 from his church to pay off gambling debts and make purchases.
Gregory Neal, of Barrington, 45, was sentenced in federal court Wednesday and ordered to pay back the Journey Baptist Church and the insurance company that covered a portion of the losses.
Sadly, many Americans are also losing faith in the traditional Christian values that this nation was founded upon.

According to one recent poll, approximately two out of every five young adults in the U.S. believe that marriage is “an outdated tradition”…
Are there wedding bells in your future? If you’re young and in love, the answer is — probably not! A new survey finds that two in five young adults think marriage is an outdated tradition. Moreover, a staggering 85 percent don’t think you need to get married to have a fulfilling and committed relationship.
Interestingly, the poll, commissioned by the Thriving Center Of Psychology, found that more women (52%) than men (41%) have this view of marriage. So much for saying yes to the dress!
Our society is not going to survive if we keep going down this path. Meanwhile, the numbers for those on the other side of the battle for our culture just keep improving.
A very high percentage of our national leaders have graduated from Ivy League schools, and the demographics at those schools clearly demonstrate where America is heading. At Yale, 29 percent of the current study body identifies as LGBTQ+…
According to Yale Daily News, around 29% of its responding student body identified as something other than straight, as the school boasted that it “welcomed the largest and most diverse class in University history.”
More specifically, 14% said they were bisexual, 6% gay/lesbian, 8% “questioning,” and 1% asexual.
At Harvard, that figure has risen to 21 percent and it is set to go even higher…

Over at Harvard, the 2023 class had about a 21% non-straight population, according to the Harvard Crimson. But the school is ready to outdo itself, as the class of 2025 will increase that number to 29%. That rate is a more than 18% increase from the class of 2017, which was represented by an 89.9% straight student body.
We are rapidly becoming the polar opposite of the society that our founders once established.
If our country ever needed a “great awakening” it is now.
Because the clock is definitely ticking.
Many Americans live their lives as if there will never be any consequences, but the truth is that none of us know what day will be our last.
In recent years, so many people that I deeply cared about have suddenly passed away. And it is just a matter of time before our entire society experiences a sudden shock that will literally change everything in a single moment.
Earlier this week, I was alarmed to read that NASA did not even know about a large asteroid that almost hit our planet until it had already gone past us…
An asteroid called 2023 NT1 reached as close as around 62,000 miles from Earth – about a quarter the distance between Earth and the moon – on July 13.
But it wasn’t until two days after its close approach that NASA scientists detected it, because it was coming from the direction of the sun and was obscured by light.
2023 NT1, which is now moving away from Earth at a speed of about 25,000 miles per hour, is up to 200 feet in diameter – bigger than the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Did you hear about this in the news?
Most people did not.
This particular asteroid was not big enough to kill millions of people, but scientists tell us that it is just a matter of time before such a giant space rock does come along.
When that day arrives, what will you do?
Will you cry out to God?
Perhaps you will, but more Americans than ever don’t want anything to do with Him, and that is extremely unfortunate.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
A casual look around this country bares this truth out formidably, with no need to look inside the Democratic party. Their evil would be unthinkable if Americans were were right with God. Imagine having the guts to vote down child protection laws. Or the unthinkable, celebrating the taking of a child’s life through abortion.
An old colloquialism states that, “God always give a nation the government they deserve”. Whether true or not, a question that must be faced in light of this abomination that passes itself off as our governmental body is our own roles, be they passive or aggressive, in their appointment. It is my firm belief that a nation whose god is GOD would not be facing this turbulence. It’s way past time for revival. The precipice is in sight.
I agree. People don’t believe in God anymore, because they don’t experience Him anymore. Why’s that? We left His commandments and made our own. Stealing and murdering is the norm lately. And not to forget the seventh day’s rest or adultery. What about honoring God? It’s all lost. Sure we don’t experience God in ways as such. We fail so much.
Let us turn to the Lord etc. Hosea 6:1&2
Come, and let us return to the Lord;
For He has torn, but He will heal us;
He has stricken, but He will bind us up.
After two days He will revive us;
On the third day He will raise us up,
That we may live in His sight.
Yes, He will heal us. That’s the message of scripture. God bless you all
