According to numerous reports, all is not well in the

contemporary Church. There are mdlions of people

m America who msmuate that they belong to Jesus

Christ. bur whose lives don t match their claims.

Equally disheartening are results of our evangelism

efforts. Alarms bells shonld ge off when we look at

statistics such as these:

~ In one year a major U.S. denomination obtained

2.94.784 decisions for Christ. Unfortunately, they

could fred only 14.337 in fellowship.

~ A mass crusade reported 18,000 decisions, yet

tragically,94 percent failed to ever become

incorporated into a local church.

~ Organizers of a Salt Lake City concert stated,

"Less than five percent of those who respond to

an altar call during a pubhc crusade.., are living

a Christian life one year later."

Here is the dilemma: Up to 95 percent of the evangel-

istic crop is failing, both in mass crusades and in local

churches. It withers and dies as soon as the sunlight of

tribulation, persecution, and temptation shines on it.

And those who do occupy our churches often fail to

grow mro vibrant witnesses for Jesus Christ.

This tragic problem has come about simply because

we have lost the precious key to revival. This book

will put that key into your hand.
