Proud to be a ‘Biblical Christian’? Here’s why that might be a problem…

I recently polled my Instagram followers, asking them three questions: “Is it important to you to be a ‘biblical Christian’?”, “Is it important to challenge leaders whose worldview is ‘unbiblical’?” and “Have you actually read the whole Bible?”.

Seventy-five per cent answered “yes” to the first question, 87 per cent said “yes” to the second, and yet only 51 per cent replied “yes” to the third.

So of my polltakers, 24 per cent of them find an important part of their identity in a book they haven’t read. And 36 per cent are ready to correct unbiblical teaching without having given the source text a once over!
