According to the US Census Bureau of Statistics; nearly 160,000 people die daily. 320,000 babies are born daily and there are about 7 Billion people currently on the planet.
Approximately 32 % of the population claim to be "Christian" That's 2.24 Billion people. Out of that approximately 1.2 Billion are Catholics, the rest are Protestant and 'other' religions.
Out of 160,000 deaths, approximately 52,000 claim to be "Christian". That leaves at least 108,000 people going to Hell each day.
Let me say that again:
At least 108,000 people going to Hell EACH DAY!
Out of 320,000 births, potential only 103,000 while grow up in a home where there is a Bible. That's a potential 217,000 newborns that probably won't hear the Gospel born daily.
Let me say that again:
217,000 newborns that probably won't hear the Gospel BORN DAILY!
Do we Christians truly have a burden for souls? Are we 'like Christ' when we ignore giving the Gospel to someone that could die today? Are we to busy concerning ourselves about what we want to get from Christ and not about what others get from Christ?
Forgive us Father for our selfishness. Forgive us for not knowing what sacrifice is. Forgive us for disobeying you. Forgive us for being greedy and not supporting those willing to leave their comfort zones to go into world and preach. We are despicable children.
We've had some good hard preaching since Sunday morning during our Missions Conference. If you've never been to a missions conference, get to one. If your church doesn't have one-start one. Our missionaries are where the Gospel hits the world where it hurts, and the world fights back. This is my first and Lord willing won't be my last.
Luke 10:2-3
"Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest. Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves."
