Only 20% of young British people are active followers of Jesus

It's actually excellent in my view, as a follower of Jesus Christ, that 1 in 5 of us young people follow him. That means that almost everyone knows a follower of Jesus, which means that potentially the Gospel is available to all who will hear it. As Christians we shouldn't, and largely don't, focus on the number of followers we get but on letting people know about what we believe and potentially giving them the option to find out more if they wish. There are some religions that aggressively seek new followers just to make their community more powerful, and a few Christian denominations are still like that unfortunately, but as Christians we should not be focused on numbers but on actively following our Lord and letting people know the message he gave the world. Then they can choose to accept or reject that message without any pressure.

That's actually surprisingly higher than I thought. That means that most young people will know someone who is a Christian, which allows the Gospel to reach potentially every young person in the country. As Christians, we can share the message of Jesus and his sacrifice, people can choose whether to accept it or not and if they really don't want to, that's not a problem since at least they have heard the good news and chosen to reject it instead of being kept in the dark about it.

It's not the 1st century AD anymore I doubt there are many places on the globe that haven't heard the "good news". This shows a major decline from previous generations where pretty much everyone was a Christian.Christianity is on a slow and steady decline in this country.

Because Christianity doesn't fear apostasy as much as Islam does. That can not be a thing to brag about, that your religion is becoming the biggest in the world because of fear and restriction?

Don't you think that could be because many Muslim countries make leaving Islam punishable by death, and that Muslim terror groups in the basically have a 'convert or die' policy towards non-Muslims

I don't think Christianity will disappear anytime soon, far from it. It's just that religion doesn't have a big place in some people's lives. Just look at church attendance rates for example. So yeah there's a good chunk of irreligious people, but that doesn't make them atheists. There are some people who aren't particularly religious but still believe in a god or higher power. Like some so-called 'Christians' who aren't religious at all: promiscuity, doesn't go Church, pretty much lives life as if the Bible doesn't exist, except for the fact that they believe in God and Jesus, that's it.

Meanwhile Islam is the fastest growing major religion on Earth whereas Christianity is losing millions of followers a year. Islam will be the largest religion in our lifetime. Many Christians convert to Islam every year.

Fear and restriction? More like because people are waking up

There are hardly any converts to Islam. Also, Islam will go exactly the same way as Christianity btw, it's just that Islam is a young religion so right now it's in its Crusades stage.

There are many converts to Islam. It's just that Islam is hard to spread in the West since the media portrays such an awful view of it which makes people intolerant towards hearing the message
