Early Warnings That Save

An Amazing Fact: The deadliest storm in American history was a Category 4 hurricane that struck Galveston in 1900. The Texas city was destroyed by a 16-foot storm surge, and an estimated 12,000 people lost their lives. By contrast, hurricane Irma was the most powerful hurricane in recorded history—a Category 5 that lasted three days! Yet, because of early warnings provided by weather satellites, only 73 lives were lost.

There has never been a storm quite like Irma to hit America. The metric energy of this one hurricane topped seven of the other major storms of 2017, including Harvey, combined! Yet thousands of lives were saved because of weather satellites. These “eyes in the skies” provided several days of warning and helped people find shelter.

You provide early warnings that save lives too. By helping to proclaim the prophecies in God’s Word—accurate forecasts for what is soon to come upon the world—you are helping thousands find shelter in Christ. Your dollars fulfill the mission of Amazing Facts: to preach the gospel to every tribe, tongue, and people before earth’s final storm strikes.

Everyone alive on the planet at that time will be hit by this apocalyptic storm, whether you build your house on the rock or the sand. Jesus said, “There will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be” (Matthew 24:21).


Historic Headlines

Anyone can see things are happening fast. Consider just a small sample of the record-breaking catastrophes from 2017.

Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria struck the Atlantic Coast. 

Major earthquakes struck central Mexico, Iraq, and Iran—killing hundreds. 

Violence struck Las Vegas, the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, and Texas, the deadliest church shooting in U.S. history.

Fires in California scorched 200,000 acres, destroyed 9,000 buildings, and killed 43 people.

Flooding and mudslides struck Bangladesh, Colombia, Sierra Leone, China, Peru, Zimbabwe, and Sri Lanka. Thousands died, and millions were left homeless.

The apostle John saw our day in vision. He witnessed powerful angels holding back the forces of evil until the work of God on earth was completed. “I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, on the sea, or on any tree” (Revelation 7:1).

Angels from heaven are keeping Satan’s armies at bay, restraining his raging power to destroy our world. When the four angels finally release these violent winds, the whole earth will be involved in unprecedented ruin (Daniel 12:1).

Your gifts to Amazing Facts alert others how to survive the coming tempest. Your dollars lead others to Christ the Rock of Ages. No storm can shake those who rest their faith on His Word.

What’s Ahead

As we close 2017, you standing with Amazing Facts is more important than ever. The winds of strife will soon be released, and people must hear the three angels’ messages to the world before it’s too late. Your year-end gift today will help Amazing Facts finish this year strong and make bold plans for new, bigger evangelistic projects in 2018. Here’s a small taste of how God is already leading …

God has opened the doors for Amazing Facts to conduct a new public evangelistic meeting in China.

Amazing Facts is producing a new series for children called Amazing Kid Questions to reach the next generation for Jesus.

We have evangelism opportunities in Africa, South America, India, Europe, New Zealand, Indonesia, and many more places!

One of the most exciting developments is that Amazing Facts will complete a new global ministry center where we can broadcast evangelistic programs, health seminars, worship services, Bible studies, and Sabbath school classes around the world. Last summer, site preparation began on the new W.O.R.D. Center. As the Lord leads, we hope to move into the two-building facility in the fall of 2018 and proclaim the gospel further than ever.

The heart of Amazing Facts is evangelism. In all the planning, printing, broadcasting, and building, this focus never changes. As we prayerfully move forward with new ways to reach the world, we invite you to join us in sharing Christ through special evangelistic meetings in Colorado, India, and China.
