A new ComRes poll commissioned by Premier Christian Media has revealed that young Christians are more concerned about life issues such as abortion and euthanasia than elderly believers are. The poll surveyed Christians of all ages and denominations, asking them to rate a number of issues in terms of how important they are. The poll revealed that there was a big difference between what young and older generations of Christians regard as important issues, with life issues of greater concern to young people aged between 18-34 years compared with those over the age of 65. Almost three quarters (69%) of young people surveyed believe abortion to be very important compared to just 31% of over 65's, and two thirds (66%) of young people think that euthanasia is a very important issue, compared with just a third (33%) of over 65’s. In contrast, youth related issues were of greater concern to over 65's as compared to young people.
Praise: God for this trend and concern among the young. (1Cor.12:25)
