Proof The Bible Is True

Gospel references have been stripped from a nativity story because children’s fundamental biblical knowledge is so minimal they would fail to understand it, a leading Christian charity has said.

 

Scripture Union, one of the UK’s oldest Christian organisations for young people and children, have also simplified the story ahead of sending out the picture book, The First Christmas, to over 105,000 children this year.

 

Whilst previous publications have included Bible references and encouraged children to compare the story to the Gospels, this simplified version is written from the angle that children reading the book will know very little about the birth of Jesus and do not go to church.

 

After the book was unveiled on Thursday, head of fundraising, Paul Stockwell told Premier Christian Radio: “We see surveys from different retailers where they ask children and young people what they think Christmas means.

 

“They’re a bit of fun but they do show that knowledge of the Christian faith and the Christian story is slowly dwindling amongst the next generation.”
