"The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore, beseech
the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest." Matt. 9:37-38

Ever since Jesus first spoke these compassionate words, the supply of workers
in the fields of soul-harvest has always been in the horrible low. But today
the need is greatest it has ever been in the history of mankind. REMEMBER, HELL
IS NOT JUST FOR THE WEEKEND! More people are alive today, and more souls are
at stake, than the total number of people who have ever lived on the face of
the earth in all of human history!

This simply means that we can populate either
Heaven or Hell by our obedience or our laziness. There are over
2,200,000,000 people who have never heard the Gospel at all and there are only
5,000 to 7,000 missionaries worldwide, working directly with these totally
un-reached groups of people. 

That means there is approximately one missionary for every 450,000 of these people! 
There are over 16,000 different and distinct cultures and people-groups-even whole 
countries, where not one single church is in existence.

 There are 7,010 distinct living languages, and 5,199 of them
still have no Bible or Scripture translations available in their own language!
Do these figures move you at all? Does it matter to you that an estimated
80.000 unsaved people die every day (approximately 3,333 every hour... 55
people every single minute) to face the judgment seat of Christ.

"Faith comes from hearing, and hearing by the Word of Christ... How shall they
hear without a preacher?" Romans 10:17,14)

Right now worldwide there are only 85,000 workers on the mission field-working
mainly among those who have heard the Gospel before. This figure includes
missionaries from all over the world of every nationality. When you compare
this number with the amount of Americans selling Avon or Amway products, it is
staggering.

 Just in America alone there are 435,000 Avon sales-people ( with
1,280,000 worldwide), and over 750,000 Amway products distributors (with over
a million worldwide)! Do you realize that these two companies combined have 14
times more representatives in the United States alone than the Church of Jesus
Christ has in the whole world outside of America?

And what about the Christian representatives we do have in the world? Only 9%
of the worlds speaks English. And 96% of ALL Christian finances are spent in
the United States on 6% of the worlds Population. Only 4% of all Christian
money is spent on missionary efforts to reach the other 94% of the worlds
population! 

There are over 1,000,000 full-time Christian workers in the United
States; while on half of the worlds population (3 major groups - Moslem,
Hindu, and Chinese), 2,200,000,000 people, have only 2,417 full time Christian
workers. As you can see by these figures, something is definately wrong. While
we in America have approximately on worker for every 230 people - those who
have never heard the Gospel even once have one worker for every 450,000 souls!
