End-time outpouring
Here is some statistical evidence of God pouring out His Spirit as promised in the last
days.
According to the U.N. there were only an estimated 300 million on the
earth in A.D. 1, when Jesus was here physically (other estimates range from 100-400
million.)
Just last year, in 1999, through its own staff and partnership ministries, just one
worldwide evangelistic ministry I am familiar with was able to expose 1.2 BILLION
people to the gospel! There were more than 24.1 million indicated decisions for Christ
through non-television situations, possibly tens of millions more through television
efforts.

Is God doing something, or what? He is bringing in the sheaves because JESUS IS COMING!
Evangelicals are growing at over three times the population growth rate, doubling to 400
million over the last ten years. (Catholicism is growing slower than world growth rate.)**
