showed, by then they are already gone! For most, it was basically too late!” Ken Ham Already Gone, p.32

(There is a lot more in Ken Ham’s small book, Already Gone, for those who are interested enough to
obtain a copy and study it.)

So we wonder…. Can an anti-God civilization survive much longer? If not….why not? And if so….there

1.4 Let’s Practice…

1. According to Matthew 28: 19-20, how is discipleship accomplished (two things)?

2. Of the population in the world, what percentage claim to be Christians (Catholic, Greek Orthodox,

3. Matthew 28 is often called the “Great Commission” but the church today seems to be practicing the
“Great ___________________”

4. What percentage of young people today who once attended church are now “disengaged” in their
walk with Christ?

1.5 Let’s Personalize this Lesson…

Activity: We need to take Christ’s command to heart. Let’s memorize Matthew 28: 19-20 and
then write it below from memory:
