A recent survey has been taken which revealed that 34% of all Americans claim to have a born again Christian experience. I agree with Vance Havner who said this at the evangelism conference this is true that 34% of Americans claim to be born again in the sense of being children of God then with all of this light in the world why is there so much darkness?
And if Christians are the salt of the earth, with all of this salt, why is there so much moral decay and putrefaction everywhere that we look around us?
