"New Poll: Millions Believe Virus a 'Wake-up Call' From God"

A new national poll reveals the surprising, life-altering view some Americans are having in response to the pandemic crisis.

How surprising?

"A stunning 44% of Americans polled said they see the global coronavirus pandemic and economic meltdown as a wake-up call for us to turn back to faith in God, as signs of coming judgment, or both," reports Joel C. Rosenberg, founder of the Joshua Fund which commissioned the survey and published the poll in The Jerusalem Post.

"What I found particularly intriguing was how many millions of Americans are seeing the crisis in spiritual terms," Rosenberg said.

"For example, fully one-in-four self-identified "secular" Americans (25%) said they believe this crisis is a "wake-up call" to get back to faith in God. So did 42% of Jewish-Americans," Rosenberg added.

As well as:

• 58% of Republicans
• 41% of Democrats

The really surprising part is this:

"Americans are not simply saying faith is more important to them than ever before. The poll indicates they are taking concrete actions," Rosenberg said.

For instance:

"Nearly four-in-10 (38%) Jewish-Americans say the crisis is not only causing them to start reading the Bible, but listen to Bible teaching and Christian sermons online, even though they usually don't. What's more, they say they are now searching online for teaching on Bible prophecy and God's future for mankind, and/or engaging in more spiritual conversations with family and friends," Rosenberg said.

The poll also shows that millions of Americans who are not self-identified Christians are doing the same, including 28% of those ages 18-29 and 36% of those between 30 and 40.

"This was both surprising and encouraging," Rosenberg said.

Less encouraging?

According to the poll, the older a non-Christian is, the less likely they are to be open to the Bible or Christian teaching. Only 7% of non-Christian people over 65 turn to the Bible for answers.

"Finally," says Rosenberg, "in an age when few people openly discuss Bible prophecy and the End Times, it was striking that nearly three-in-10 (29%) of all Americans said they believe that this crisis indicates that we are living in what the Bible calls the 'last days'."

A wise man once said: "These are no ordinary times. Americans in near full lock down are anxious and understandably so. Yet tens of millions are turning to God, the Bible and Christian sermons for answers, many of them for the first time. That may be the most important silver lining in this crisis so far." -- Joel C. Rosenberg, author

"But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days" (2 TIMOTHY 3:1).
