Almost six out of ten people in England say they are Christian, according to a new poll of carried out by ComRes. But only two in five respondents said they believe the Bible is the inspired word of God, which helps to explain why so many Christians do not stand firm on issues such as the sanctity of life and the biblical definition of marriage.

And just nine per cent of those identifying as Christian pray regularly, read the Bible and attend church at least monthly. "People feel an affinity with Christianity but we must keep proclaiming Christ and the values that flow from Him," said Andrea Williams.
