Every Time the Clock Ticks…

World Population as of 2010: 6,882,000,000

Annual Deaths
Per Year 56,000,000
Per Month 4,679,452.00
Per Day 153,424.70
Per Hour 6,392.70
Per Minute 106.60
Per Second 1.80 

 

Do you realize that every time the second hand on your watch moves to another position, every tick mark on that clock, two people die, and two souls slip into eternity! What are the chances that those two people went to an eternal, literal, burning Hell? Let’s be generous and say that 1/4 of the world’s population are born again Christians. What about the other 5 billion people in the world? Then take out of the 1/4 of Christians (broadly used term) in the world that trust in works, water, Mary, or whatever to be saved, yet are not…

And we spend our time complaining about who’s doing what, and he said/she said, and give little thought on who’s eternal destination is Hell. Is Hell real to us? Or, simply as place we choose to block out of our minds? Next time we have the urge to gossip and backbite about things that are temporal, let’s think about the 2 people that just slipped into eternity. And let it move us to share the gospel with someone!
