More Sunday Christians?

“Sunday Christian” is a mocking term that refers to someone who regularly attends church on Sundays but does not appear to live their life for Christ on the other six days of the week.  Do you believe there are more “Sunday Christians” today than there were twenty years ago?   Explain why or why not?

    Probably not, though one cannot know for sure. The reasoning I use is this: 1. For many centuries in Western Culture, Christianity was a ‘national’ religion (for that country) rather than a personal one. One went to church because it was expected (or required) so many went to church out of obligation. In modern Western culture, failure to attend church did not have the culture (or political or moral or even familial) impact as in current times. One is not shunned if one does not attend church. 2. In non-Western cultures where there is persecution, attending church is a dangerous act and few would go just to look good for the culture. 3. There is a consistent decline in attendance figures for the ‘mainline’ denominations where the emphasis is not the gospel but something else (social justice, tradition, social standing, etc).
