THE BINARY SYSTEM
Acts 6:7
God's message was preached in ever-widening circles. The number of believers greatly increased in Jerusalem, and many of the Jewish priests were converted, too. (NLT)

There is tremendous power in numbers. The binary system has only two numbers, zero and one. Yet all our digital systems, our computers are based in binary. It is not the single digit, but the multiplications effect of the power of two.

If I tell two people a secret, three of us know. If they tell two others each, four more know. Taken eighteen more levels and over a million people know. I guess this is why a secret is no longer a secret when you tell even one person.

This is how word of mouth advertising happens. We have a great experience with a product or a store and we tell others about it. They tell others who tell others and ever-widening circles find out and want to know more.

Based on this simple binary system, the entire world should have heard the gospel message years ago. If only believers would have told two others each. If only others would tell them today. When we take the time to tell the story, to preach in ever-widening circles, the number of believers will greatly increase.
