Churches for Sale - David P Wainwright - July 1970

David P Wainwright

These verbal bombshells - from a Surrey vicar and a Free Church leader - highlight the sorry state of Britain's churches and their total failure to lead the British people. This failure is reflected only too well in the latest statistics and polls. The Central Board of Finance reveals only 4% of the public attend the Church of England. Roman Catholic attendance is similar. Free Churches draw a mere 2%. In short, over 90% of the British public never darken the door of a church. More startling, the latest Harris poll (May 1970) reveals only about half the people in Britain even believe in a literal God. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
