If We Don’t Act On This NOW, We Will LOSE the Next Generation | Ken Ham

If we don’t act on this NOW, we will LOSE the next generation. In this presentation, Ken Ham discusses the reason we’re seeing such a rapid decline in church attendance among young people and exhorts Christians to take action.

    I went to Bible college to study theology as a keen Christian. We were taught to not trust or believe what the Bible says, so I graduated or good degree, but damaged faith. Only recently have I regained my faith thanks to Answers in Genesis and Expedition Bible KZread videos. Thank you Ken Ham.

    This is called Paul's gospel as he was given this gospel by revelation by the risen Christ after his death buriel and resurrection from the dead. This is that gospel! 1 Corinthians 15:3:4 how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures and that he was buried and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures; that is all you have to believe according to the scriptures.

    Well said. I just left my home church of 8 years as the man who left was allowed to damage the members, was replaced by a "fluff" preacher. I approached my elders and wrote critiques on his sermons. I asked that they peruse the critiques first or have the current man with them when they went over it. They sent it right to the man and of course he was offended. I apologized after meeting the elders who said "we hired him to preach that way as we were losing young people". The prior preacher skuttled about 3/4s of the youth, then bringing in preaching that bends to culture? WHAT? So, I went to another place, but "works" sermons were being taught. Sad. We don't want to "offend" people, yet Jesus offended many, but drew many with the truth.

A liturgy that framed the service logically, sermons worth listening to. Now? Nothing. Neither fish nor flesh. Chatismatic songs that I refuse to sing. Wordly "sermons", no Lord's prayer. That is not a service, it's a shambles and ridiculous. An insult, really. Why would I go there?

    Not all modern songs are bad and not all of the old songs are good. Some are like being at a miserable funeral. Where there is no God. We must not forget the joy of Christ, the wonder of him, which a lot of the old stuff did forget. The Bible tells us to worship him with musical instruments. David danced. I skipped Sunday School because it was like school. I was 45 before I came to Christ. Mainly because of the miserable services and the people who went there. God disturbers. I did come to Christ and was with that church many years. I was becoming disenchanted with the church but not Jesus or God. I had done much study and work in the church, but something was wrong. I started getting real teaching about 30 years in. Revelation TV. Answers in Genesis Dr Grady McMurtry, John Mckay and many others. O so different from the CofE teaching. I was told the vicar had said not to watch Revelation TV Young earth your mad. Slowly things began to dawn on me. These people had something that the church lacked. Yes macro evolution doesn't make scientific sense. I had to look for several years to find a Bible Believing Church, that was not miserable that also believed in the Jews an important people. Yes they have to come to Christ but they are still Jews. Then covid put a stop to everything. But I did find that elusive Bible Believing Church that was not miserable. Recognised the Jews. I'm not a youngsters I'm 77 hope for all.

NOT his male disciples, they were all cowering in a room. HE had RISEN. The women first. One sentence hidden in ACTS Mary the mother of Jesus was a house leader. They didn't call them churches then. even Paul taught in a house. Even Paul had a female spiritual adviser, was it Lydia can't remember. When he talked about the problem with the women he was taking about a problem in a particular church. He talked about husbands and wives. Not men and women. He also told men to obey their wives. That is also never mentioned or is glossed over. My female pastor is the best Pastor I have known in 33 years when I first came Christ. Pity I hadn't met her much earlier (only 2 years) .

    This generation is starting to come back, and I've been watching churches in our city start to swell with these younger people, so much so that churches are having to add another service, or build on to their building. This generation has watched around them as this economic depression (it is not a recession), with the things of this world has failed them and they are searching. Once they do get plugged in, they want more than just another church service and they are getting plugged into ministries in the area. I am hearing of other revivals breaking out across this country, and I am finding that this younger generation doesn't just want to play church, with a service on Sunday and back to the world. Even just five years ago I would not have expected this, so we have to pray for the workers because they are coming and they are bringing their energy with them. They want something real, and God is meeting them where they are. Sometimes it takes something as hopeless as thinking that the "American dream" of owning a house is out of their reach, but those who are finding Him are finding out that He has much more to offer than any material thing of this world. It isn't hopeless, so keep praying!

    Neither am I You forget 2000 years ago the Bible Predicted there would be a falling away. This will happen as the end times gets closer. Predictions of wars rumours of wars, in fact what we see in the world today. Even the nuclear bomb. Skin will melt, and so on. Adam destroyed our opportunity for a perfect world with no illness, no death, no violence, no dangerous animals, the lamb will lie with the lion. One God. Adam by being disobedient and wanting to be equal with God destroyed it all. There is no other religion that would even consider that their followers would fall away and do their best to keep them using violence, loss of life, threats of losing family, community, business, work, senior clerics wanting to be equal with god. while the people suffer. Yes it also happened in what that denomination called Christianity but is not. Basically it went through times of male domination not God in charge, but there have always been people to try and get it back on course.

Shouldn't we be working towards handing the baton to the next generation, laboring on behalf of the kingdom of God, rather than throwing up our hands? It may be that this will prove the great falling away, but even if it is, we are to labor on. Didn't Jesus say that the servant busy about the Master's business/work when He returns is blessed?

    On leading souls to Christ.

And It is written in John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And if Someone who walks away from God after knowing the truth. 1 John 2:19 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us. 2 Peter 2:21 It would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness than to have known it and then to turn away from the holy commandment passed on to them. 22 Of them that do this it is written in proverbs are true: “A dog returns to its vomit,” and, “A sow that is washed goes back to her wallowing in the mud.” So Please stop worrying and Please stop taking charge and let God do His part.

    One of the reasons the gospel has been skewed at least in part is what we call "church." The original term is "ekklesia" which is translated "congregation" or "assembly," can never be translated "church." Church if anything is exactly what Ken said, a building that can close its doors. Ekklesia is never a building and the "gates of hell will not prevail", according to Jesus.

    Even a Christian cannot brush aside the worship of Jehovah God. In Revelation 1:5 the Son of God called himself "Jesus Christ, 'The Faithful Witness.'" When on earth as a man he was a Jew, an Israelite, to whose nation the words of Isaiah 43:10 were written: "'You are my witnesses, 'is the utterance of Jehovah, 'even my servant whom I have chosen.'" Jesus demonstrated that he was a faithful and true witness of Jehovah God. His genuine disciples today must be the same kind of witnesses, Jehovah's.

    How do we balance our Faith and our right to worship with everyone else's rights to their Faith (or non-faith)? If I have a right to openly and freely practice my Faith, don't Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Atheists etc have the same rights? I don't have to agree with someone's perspective to support their right to that perspective. From what I can tell, Yeshua never forced his teachings on others - He would share his teachings but let people make their own choices.

    For a believer, there is no balance unfortunately. Jesus was abundantly clear that he came not to bring peace but a sword. Meaning, you were either with him or against him. No neutrality possible. Islam is even more extreme. Islam is to be spread by whatever means necessary. You either submit to Allah and the Holy Qur'an or you are to be eliminated. No middle ground here either. These "end times prophecy" are thus self-fulfilling. When each side of the two major brands of faith both believe a blood bath is the inevitable conclusion to the earthly story before God "cleans" things up and ends it, then clash is a given.

And yet, I wasn’t getting it. If someone makes a legitimate effort to be a Christian, it stands to reason that they were neither godless nor wicked in their pursuit of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ. And yet, the Holy Spirit apparently failed to do what needed to be done in me. I still don’t get it.

Until I asked God with a sincere heart to show me once and for all if He is real. He made me after all and so I figured He knows my doubting nature so He already knows what it takes for me to believe. So without me even knowing it God began to work in me and change me till I was brought to a place some time later (months) where I realized how just how much I am loved and also of my need of forgiveness. I surrendered everything to Him and just said God take me. Do with me as you want. Forgive me. Im yours. Jesus bought me already with His bood. Now He's Lord of my life. I will say Jesus absolutely and unequivocally changed my life from that moment on. He put a hunger for His word in me I never had, He put in me a desire to fellowship and be with believers that was completely not my nature. He put in me a desire to SING and praise Him which I never had my entire life !! A joy I never had knowing I was His. I spent the next 3 weeks in amazement thinking im losing it at the contrasts in my life from who I was. I'm still amazed every single day because, I KNOW what I was. I was all darkness. Till He intervened and brought me out of my pit into His wonderful light. The Holy Spirit is real. Jesus is real. Dont ever let this world feed you the lie that Jesus isnt real. He's real and He lives !! Whats happening in you right now if your even thinking about it is God is already working in your life. Ask him with a 100 percent committed heart to forgive you, and ask Him to put His spirit in you and come into your life and be LORD of your life, and then watch Him change you from the inside out. It takes a full surrenderance, a realization that your life is not your own. He WILL change you forever I promise. He wants all not 99% though. God Bless you.

Mary the mother of Jesus was a house leader. They didn't call them churches then. even Paul taught in a house. Even Paul had a female spiritual adviser, was it Lydia can't remember. When he talked about the problem with the women he was taking about a problem in a particular church. He talked about husbands and wives. Not men and women. He also told men to obey their wives. That is also never mentioned or is glossed over,. As for women singing that is not even in the Bible. We all sing the praises of God, men and women.

    Ken, how can the average Christian act on this now? What more can they do besides bringing up children in Christ, preaching the gospel when they can, do the will of God, and letting their light shine to lead the nations to Christ? Did not Jesus said MANY will say to me on that day, Lord Lord.......? Did he not say the wheat will grow with the weeds? Jesus said :Few are the ones finding the road to life. Christianity has become full of doctrines of men, false teachings and is heavily commercialised today, Christmas, easter and even paying church leaders a salary, promoting books and merchandise, music and rewards for attending church, turning the house of God into a house of commerce john 2;16. These leaders many times treat it as just a job and can easily be devoid of faith, in turn the congregation do not take their church attendance seriously as just the tip of the iceberg. This too had led to the fall of the church because it does not have Gods backing anymore. Jesus said : You received free, give free. Matt 10:8. If Gods judgement is upon the Churches and they are falling, I cannot see that we can do much about it as God has judged it, but thankfully there will always be a remnant of true Christians. .

Al this in conjunction with the second beast of revelation 13 the lamb like beast USA, is pointing to a grand deception where NASA (which in hebrew means to decieve) is using fake outer space to decieve the world. After all, doesn't the bible say that the second beast of revelation 13 the USA, make fire come down from heaven, and that these false miracles decieve the world into worshipping the first beast, Rome again?

I am particularly interested in your analysis of the scientific evidence in conjunction with biblical references, as you have done with many other topics, and I'm sure like myself you will find that the globe, evolution, big bang theory are all lies from the Jesuits of Rome. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to your response and hope to see this intriguing subject explored in one of your future presentations. Warm regards, John Skimmer

    We turned church into an idol and Christ's people have woken up to it which is why the idols are CLOSING DOWN. Good riddance. Christ's people seek true fellowship, not sunday sermon farms and fistbumps.

    Although it is sad to see and to witness the decline of Christianity all over the world, let us not forget that it was predicted to happen and that persecution would eventually follow as well.. There are many Bible prophecies that confirm that bad things will happen prior to the return of Jesus. 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4 KJV‬ 3] Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; 4] who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. 2 Timothy 3:1-17 KJV‬ 1)This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2) For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, 3) without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, 4)traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5)having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

    A remedy for churches is this. REVELATION 18:4. The future generation is this. HOSEA 4:6... It would help if pastors and priests would teach what scripture declare what sin is. 1st John 3:4. But christianity teaches that the law has been done away with. This effect has spilled onto the streets..LAWLESSNESS. I was called out of men's religion. Isn't that what the word ECLESIA MEANS??? It would also help if people were sincere and acually had a love for truth. . It would also help to STUDY as commanded 2 Timothy 2:15. It would also help to PROVE 1st Thessolonians 5:21 and not swollow the koolaid being served from the pupit.. And it would also help to get off the MILK.!!! And mature in the word.. TRUTH is being restored. (The restitution of all things) but not many have open hearts to receive that truth. If you don't see the hypocricy in your church than you are the problem.. The church is 2,000 years apostate. Turn back to the Fathers (Abraham, Issac, Jacob/Israel) MALACHI CH.4. Enter into the covenant. Keeping the LAWS, STATUTES, AND JUDGEMENTS. Jeremiiah 31:31. Hebrews Ch. 10. Stop allowing your pastor or priest to keep you held in captivity. Your righteousness SHOULD exceed his.. Righteousness is the keeping of the LAW. Matthew 6:33. Which is my foundation..If it is TRUTH you seek (which sets you at liberty) than that should become your number one piority in life, as it has been mine....Ask seek knock..You will be greatly rewarded.. It's a promise...

    Is not the church a living organism and not buildings. There are places of worship. A building is not church. Is it a play on words. The thief on the cross never went to church. Maybe places of worship have changed for the worst, causing some christians to not attend anymore. Rather, staying home and doing their own Bible study.

    People are leaving church but they have not abandoned their faith in God and are all becoming atheist. Kens fundamentalist interpretation of the Bible is no longer how people view the Bible and the world around them. People change over time to use more logic and reason and slowly religion catches up. Remember Galileo. The church just recently pardoned him.

    We experience what Paul was writing to the Thessalonians about the great Apostasy: 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3: Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you, 2 not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come. 3 Let no one deceive you by any means; for that Day will not come unless the falling away comes first, and the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition. We talk so much about awaiting Jesus to come back. But than we are astonished if we see the things falling in place. So be encouraged. Jesus is coming back soon.

Social media has actually served to bolster the extreme ignorance of reality. One can always find a pocket of abjectly stupid people just like them online and feel security. Why ever attempt to learn anything or take responsibility when the Bible tells you exactly what you must think and Sir Jesus is coming back "very soon" to save the day!

    We complain about the bad things going on in the world - and there are many evil forces at work - but we only have ourselves to blame. Reading through the books of Kings and Chronicles in the Bible show clearly what happened to nations that turned away from God. Like it or not, this is HISTORY. The Bible has never been proven wrong. If only we could learn from our ancestors' mistakes and not let history repeat itself.

    Jesus said love all, but do not condone their wrong behaviour. He himself took a whip to the men who were abusing His Father's house, the Temple. The youngsters also see Christians are no different to the rest of the world. Christians do not condemn unacceptable behaviour in God's sight. AS one pastor said God will accept me because I accept everyone has a right to live as they want. To some God is not a Father, It, she, them, mother, It's how they accept him. God choose to be called Father, Jesus said so. So the young person says what's the point if you don't believe your own God. I know I did

    The Bible is God's word, His instructions, His guidance and His testimony to us, His children. It's the second most important thing God has given us. We should cherish it and live by it and be very careful not to add to it with our man-made traditions (such as Sunday keeping and the trinity doctrine).

    Don't just defend the Bible, but teach people how to have a real relationship with Jesus/Holy Spirit. The churches are a religious mess & often look very dead.
