SURVEY: Many American Christians Have Mistaken Understanding Of How To Have Eternal Life.
By Audrey Barrick
Most American Christians believe many religions can lead to eternal life and among them, the vast majority says you don't even have to be Christian to go to heaven, a new survey shows.
Sixty-five percent of all Christians say there are multiple paths to eternal life, ultimately rejecting the exclusivity of Christ teaching, according to the latest survey conducted by the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life.
Even among white evangelical Protestants, 72 percent of those who say many religions can lead to eternal life name at least one non-Christian religion, such as Judaism or Islam or no religion at all, that can lead to salvation.
Dr. R. Albert Mohler, Jr., president of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, called the survey results "a theological crisis for American evangelicals," according to USA Today.

Donations Went From $70 To $20,000 In Weeks, Pastor Says
ATLANTA -- Students at an Atlanta elementary school enjoyed new gifts and uniforms Tuesday which were received through a pastor’s unorthodox Internet campaign.
Shaun King launched a Web site, 500uniforms.org, to raise money for gifts and uniforms for students at Frank L. Stanton Elementary in southwest Atlanta.
“A lot of organizations that normally give toys and supplies to schools don't have anything because of the way the economy is,” King said.
King said he started the Web site to buy 500 toys and 500 uniforms for students at the school. He said 98 percent of the students there live at or below poverty level.

What if, instead of God sending three wise men at our Savior's birth, He had sent three wise women? - They would have stopped to ask for directions.
- They would have been on time.
- They would have prepared the stable.
- They would have helped deliver the baby.
- They would have made a casserole.
- And they would have brought diapers as a gift rather than perfume.
"But the angel said to them, 'Do not be afraid, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David, a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord'"(Luke 2:10,11). MERRY CHRISTMAS ~ LOVE YOU MUCH!
