Page 1 - A Population and Evangelism Explosion

December 2018
An Amazing Fact: The world’s population is now more than 7.6 billion souls—and growing by
200,000 people every day. By 2025, it will surpass 8 billion! World economists say that humans are
overconsuming earth’s resources faster than they can be replenished, quickly reaching a tipping point
from which we could never recover.

Dear friend,

Are you anything like me—troubled every time you read about the global population
explosion and how we’ll ever fulfill Jesus’ command to “preach the gospel to every creature”?
With 73 million new people born each year, it’s natural to wonder if completing such a
daunting task is even possible!
Then I remember Jesus’ promise: “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are
possible” (Matthew 19:26). What thrilling assurance! And He’s using you to do it. Because
you have faithfully stood with Amazing Facts, the Spirit’s mathematics have exponentially
multiplied our efforts and carried His saving truth farther than we could have ever
imagined!
That’s why my faith today is strengthened as I look back and consider the immense
evangelism you made possible in 2018. We’ve seen thousands of lives transformed and
souls won in every corner of the globe—from right here in the states to Africa, India, the
Middle East, and far beyond.
So will you please let me take a moment to remind you just how vital your gifts have
been to this soul-winning explosion over the past year?
From Africa and India …

Deep in the heart of Africa, I witnessed God’s power
during Amazing Facts’ Prophecy Countdown outreach in
Uganda. The Lord actually stopped the rain every night
during the rainy season before each meeting. The locals
were so impressed by this obvious miracle, the crowds
swelled to 8,000 souls—all hearing the Word proclaimed.
Because of your support, on the final Sabbath, 337 souls
were baptized into God’s remnant church!

(over, please)
