INCREASING KNOWLEDGE: A SIGN OF THE TIMES
Educational analysts have noted that knowledge is now exploding at a phenomenally rapid rate--more than 2000 pages of new information every minute. Even the most brilliant among us could not possibly keep up with that incredible pace. Actually, if we were to read 24 hours every day (from age 21 to age 70) we would still be 1.5 million years behind when we finished. Wow!
If we were to graph this awesome increase of human knowledge from the beginning of time to recent times, it would roughly appear as follows:
--Up to 1845 is one inch.
--From 1845 to 1945 is three inches.
--From 1945 to 1976 is the height of the Washington Monument.
Actually, in 1945 the sum of human knowledge doubled every 25 years. Currently, the sum of human knowledge doubles every 12 hours! The prophet, Daniel, predicted such amazing circumstances for the end-time, emphatically stating that “knowledge shall be increased.” (Daniel 12:4) Unquestionably, his words constitute a real understatement of our present situation.
Sisters and brothers, be continually blessed, and please (above all else) MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO MEET OUR SOON COMING KING. Maranatha!
