How Big?—How Soon?
Back to The Work of God
Pause and savor—deeply think about—what the last paragraph contained. Then recognize again that for a time we nearly tripled in size for six straight years. The impact that this powerful Work is having right now is far beyond what our enemies and the splinter leaders want you to know. Thousands are reading our material every week in single nations that were barely touched in the 20th century.
What is already happening is unprecedented!
So then we could also naturally ask: How many will know of the message thundering from this Work within just one, two, three or four more years? And what if we continue to grow at the same rate for these short few remaining years? The vast millions that we will be reaching just in 2011 leaves one almost unable to comprehend where the Work will be during each of the years to follow. Now ask: How soon before we reach most nations every several hours, and then every hour—or LESS?
It only began to occur to us in late 2005 that the explosion of interest in what this Church is doing is beyond anything that anyone in our office could have imagined possible today, even with another two or three years of steady growth. This certainly includes me. I simply could not have dreamed what God had in mind all along for His final Work at the end of the age.
But now this surge is reality.
Already, any number of heads of state or interested parties in the very highest government offices from around the world are coming to our websites on a regular basis. So are embassies, high-ranking judges, military and political figures from around the world. In addition, many of the greatest media outlets of the world are regularly perusing the material on our websites, with more and more journalists (some well-known) quoting our booklets and articles.
Here is a strange curiosity: Because of the mass of material we offer, we can also report that religious leaders, or their assistants, from many of the world’s largest professing Christian denominations come to us for materials. These represent large and growing numbers—many hundreds, or even thousands—of ministers of every geography, stripe and background who also come to us for information. (And they are often quoting us favorably.) The marvels of modern technology permit us to carefully track the above kinds of visitors.
All of this has today pushed the Work of God’s Church well beyond the impact of not only all of the splinter “churches of God”—and by far—but has also taken us into the top percentage of all categories of websites in the world that are listed in a popular ranking system. And remember, in a sense, we consider ourselves to just be getting started—just scratching the surface—of what we know can be done.
And remember, in a sense, we consider ourselves to just be getting started—just scratching the surface—of what we know can be done.
Therefore, how long before we have become the biggest thing in religion that the world has ever seen? We cannot know for certain, but we can speculate that it will not be very long before we are the largest “event” that “Christianity” in all of its forms has ever experienced!
May God help you see your role in this effort.
And You...?
In regard to both the Israelite Remnant and the Great Multitude, what an exciting time it will be for the survivors then!—and what an absolutely inspiring opportunity now for God’s laborers commissioned to warn and prepare these millions.
But the years remaining to do this are few…
