FACTS & FIGURES

Practicing Christians are those who attend a religious service at least once a month, who say their faith is very important in their lives and self-identify as a Christian.

Born again Christians have made a personal commitment to Jesus Christ that is still important in their life today and believe that, when they die, they will go to heaven because they have confessed their sins and accepted Jesus Christ as their savior.

Evangelicals are broadly described as follows:

1. They  have made “a personal commitment to Jesus Christ that is still important in their life today,” 
2. Believe that when they die they will go to Heaven because they have confessed their sins and accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior; 
3. Strongly believe they have a personal responsibility to share their religious beliefs about Christ with non-Christians; 
4. Firmly believe that Satan exists; 
5. Strongly believe that eternal salvation is possible only through grace, not works; 
6. Strongly agree that Jesus Christ lived a sinless life on earth; 
7. Strong assert that the Bible is accurate in all the principles it teaches; 
8. Describe God as the all-knowing, all-powerful, perfect deity who created the universe and still rules it today. 

​Being classified as an evangelical is not dependent on church attendance, the denominational affiliation of the church attended or self-identification. Respondents were not asked to describe themselves as “evangelical.”
