Folks, it seems to me that at least 97% of the world's population is spiritually dead, and is perishing. Even amongst God's people many are perishing for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6).

"But when they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook his garments and said to them. 'Your blood be upon your own heads. I AM CLEAN. From now on I will go to the Gentiles." (Acts 18:6)
