Did You Know?
From the Desk of Wesley Smith
Bibles to China Update . . .
Did you know…
That every Bible we print inside China touches at least 100 people?
This is not Full Life Crusade’s theory. This is what the Chinese pastors tell us!
Did you know . . .
That it only costs $1.50 for Full Life Crusade to print a Bible in China? The Bibles printed there have no additional transportation costs because the Chinese believers pick them up from the printer and distribute them all over the country.
Did you know . . .
That the most powerful and far reaching revival that has ever been on the earth is taking place in China right now?
Did you know . . .
That approximately 1,000 people in China are coming to know Jesus every hour?
Did you know . . .
This translates into almost 25,000 converts every day, almost nine million new souls each year?
Many places I go people say to me, “I’ve heard that a million Bibles were printed in China a few years ago. Isn’t that enough?”
The revival in China has been going on since the missionaries were forced out in1949 . . . 58 years ago!
More than 100 million Chinese have given their hearts to Jesus Christ since Chairman Mao died in 1976. Do you think that a mere one million Bibles are enough?
How would you like to share your Bible with 100 other people? That means you would only have your Bible for about 3 ½ days each year! How would your spiritual life survive if you only had access to your Bible for less than a week each year?
This is what many, many Chinese believers have to endure at this very moment.
Did you know . . .
That Full Life Crusade has led more than 1,000 people to China since 1979, about 60 trips?
Did you know . . .
That we were the very first team to enter communist China with one ton of Bibles . . . and that our team of 23 people got 100% of the Scriptures into the country? Hundreds of people were praying for us as we went; and it was only the hand of the Lord that caused us to have success!
Did you know . . .
That after carrying tens of thousands of Bibles into the country God opened the way for us to actually print the Chinese Bibles inside the People’s Republic?
Did you know . . .
That in 2002 my team was arrested because a man on our team disobeyed my instructions? I am now a “National Security Risk” (NSR).
Did you know . . .
That we have the entire Chinese Bible on our website (www.FLC7.com), which is able to jump over the Bamboo curtain. Anyone with a computer can print out chapters of the Bible and distribute them to the house churches . . . FREE!
Did you know . . .
That by printing Bibles in China, carrying them into the country with our teams, and via our website we have reached tens of thousands of hungry people with the gospel?
Did you know . . .
That for only $1.50 you can touch approximately 100 Chinese with a Bible? Where else can you reach so many people with so few dollars?
Did you know . . .
That our teams have passed out gospel tracts during every trip and we have never found one tract thrown down on the ground? In fact, countless times we have seen groups of Chinese crowded around trying to read one tract?
Did you know . . .
That during almost every trip to the PRC I have preached in underground churches with an interpreter?
Did you know . . .
That at least 95% of the Chinese Christians do not attend the official state church, the Three Self Patriotic Movement (TSPM)? Instead, they attend house churches because they do not trust their government or the state-appointed pastors.
Did you know . . .
That the impact of Christianity on China’s leaders has caused them to consider freedom of religion for 1.3 billion of earth’s inhabitants?
Did you know . . .
That Chinese Christians are considered by the government to be the most honest, the best workers, and are the most devoted to their country than any other group in the nation?
Did you know . . .
That China will soon become the #1 English-speaking country in the world?
Did you know . . .
That God said, “In the last days I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh?”
Did you know . . .
That Daniel predicted these days? “Many will rush here and there and knowledge will increase (Dan. 12:4)?”
Did you know . . .
That more than 3,000 new books are published each day?
That a week’s worth of information in the New York Times contains more information than a person was likely to come across in a lifetime in the 18th century?
That the number of text messages sent and received each day exceeds the population of the planet?
That 1.5 exabytes (1.5 X 10 to the 18th) of unique information will be generated worldwide this year . . . more than in the previous 5,000 years?
That while you were reading this letter 60 babies were born in the U.S.; 244 babies were born in China?
That if you are one in a million in China, then there are 1,300 just like you?
That 500 million people travel by air each year, just inside the United States . . . and that by 2017 that number will reach more than one billion, five billion worldwide?
That by 2013 a supercomputer will be built that exceeds the computation capability of the human brain, and that by 2049 (if this old world lasts that long) a $1,000 computer will exceed the computation capabilities of the human race?
That third-generation fiber optics has recently been tested by NEC and Alcatel that pushes 10 trillion bits per second down one strand of fiber? That’s equal to 1,900 CDs or 150 million simultaneous phone calls, every second.
That there are over 2.7 billion searches performed on Google each month? To whom were these questions addressed B.G. (before Google)?
That 25% of people in China with the highest I.Q.s is greater than the total population of North America? Translation for teachers: China has more honors kids than we have kids!
So . . . yes, Daniel’s prophecies have come to pass before our very eyes. I believe that Jesus will return very soon.
Before his return we will see the nations of the world surround Israel.
Did you know . . .
That Russia now has a huge nuclear military base in Tartus, Syria, right on the Mediterranean Sea? It’s weapons are pointed at Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
Did you know . . .
That Russia, Iran, & Syria signed a defense pact in July of 2006? This means if one is attacked it is like they are all attacked.
Did you know . . .
That we are definitely in the very LAST DAYS? And that if we are going to do anything to spread the gospel and reach people for Jesus Christ it must be now?
Time is running out!
You are always welcome to copy our materials and pass them to friends.
May the Lord richly bless you during these last days and use you for his purposes.
In His Service,
Wesley Smith
