On Biblical Literacy in America Wednesday, June 9, 2021 @ 7:37 AM My people are destroyed for a lack of knowledge… (Hosea 4:6 ESV). “Biblical illiteracy is one of the big problems the church is facing today,” according to Matthew White, a bi-vocational pastor who also writes for AFA Journal. Biblical literacy is the foundation for a biblical worldview that affects families, churches, our nation, and the world. Unfortunately, that foundation has cracks. Even if you take a free biblical literacy quiz and do well, facts alone without faith in Christ mean nothing eternally. Second Timothy 3:7 describes this perfectly as “…always learning and never able to arrive at a knowledge of the truth.”
