The Battle For Men's Souls

There are 108 million men in America 18 years of age and older.

Evangelism:  Regrettably, 66 million make no profession of Christ
Discipleship:   Amazingly, Only 6 million men are involved -- 1 out of 18

Men are engaged in a daily battle for their souls.  Many lost their souls by exchanging the truth of God for a lie (Romans 1:25).  They've run the wrong race (Galatians 5:7).  As a result, they're conformed to the values and customs of this world (Romans 12:2) and been taken captive by hollow and deceptive philosophy (Colossians 2:8).  That yeast has worked its way through the whole batch of dough (Galatians 5:9).

Many men really don't know how to live their lives nor have the knowledge to grasp what it means to follow Christ.  For others, they lack power to do what they already know they should do.  In Matthew 22:29, Jesus told some confused religious leaders, "The problem is that you do not know (oida) the Scriptures and you do not know the power (dunamis) of God" (paraphrased).
