调查:大部分热爱圣经的美国人更需要圣经而非咖啡开启早晨

根据美国圣经公会(American Bible Society)一项新全国调查,多数“热衷圣经”(Bible-centered)的美国人更需要圣经而不是咖啡来开启早晨。

这项调查由美国圣经学公会委托巴纳调查中心(Barna Group)完成,结果显示61%“阅读圣经”(Bible-engaged)的美国人称他们早晨阅读圣经的需要比对咖啡的渴望更强烈。

这份调查给出四个选项—— 咖啡,甜食,社交媒体和圣经——并询问受访者他们认为哪些是日常必需。

“61%‘热衷圣经’的群体称圣经是日常必需。43%‘阅读圣经’的成年人更喜欢圣经。五分之一‘圣经友好型’( Bible-friendly)选择圣经,而非咖啡、糖果和社交媒体(21%)。”

“老人和婴儿潮更可能说咖啡是白天他们必须吃的东西(46%和47%),相比之下千禧代为32%,X代为30%。在这些选项中更可能选择圣经的是已婚成年人,大学毕业生,未满18岁者和南方居民。”

2018年美国圣经状况报告(The 2018 State of the Bible Report )也显示,42%的美国人表示他们今天比五年前更恐惧,但也对未来更有希望。41%的人阅读圣经时感到平安,81%对未来充满希望。

“我们现在能够给更好了解美国人与圣经的互动以及这如何影响他们的生活,”美国圣经公会总裁兼首席执行官罗伊·彼得森(Roy Peterson)在报告中说。 “我们发现人们对圣经的参与程度越高,他们越充满希望和平安,也更意识到他们对圣经的需要。”

这份调查是在网上和通过电话对2040人进行采访,结果显示42%的美国人在阅读圣经后更加慷慨,54%的人更彼此相爱,56%的人信仰更积极。

当被问到圣经的目的等一系列问题时,大多数“圣经使用者”(Bible users)视圣经为来自上帝的书信表达他对他们的爱和救恩,是了解上帝对他们的期望的方式,也是如何生活的指南。

研究中称的“圣经使用者”是指除教会礼拜或教会活动外,每年个人至少3-4次阅读,聆听或使用圣经祷告的人。

根据《华盛顿邮报》和凯瑟家庭基金会(Kaiser Family Foundation)去年的一项民意调查,大约一半的美国人每周至少几次做谢餐祷告。

对1686名美国成年人进行的民意调查显示,城乡美国人、北方人和南方人、天主教徒和新教徒、民主党人和共和党人,虽然在程度上有所不同,但所有人都做感恩祷告。
