Did you know that over 150,000 people die every day?
On average everytime this blinks someone passes into eternity!
It has been estimated that only 7% of the world's population has accepted the Biblical plan of salvation. Even if this research is wrong and the number is 75%, that still means that over 38,000 people would go to Hell every day. Clearly, there is still much that needs to be done to bringthe lost to Christ. The counter above shows the estimated average number of people who have died since this web page was opened. Every day we live is an opportunity to save a life.
