Excerpt from The Outlook, 1998, Vol. 47 The statistics alone are enough to choke almost any computer's hard drive. Currently, about 100 million people worldwide surf the net. More than 500 000 websites dot the Information Highway offering everything from groceries to automobiles to mortgage loans. Analysts project that purchases made over the Internet will reach $327 billion by the year 2002. The federal government reports receiving an average of requests per day for Internet website domain names. As more and more people are going global via the Internet, this once vast universe is becoming smaller and smaller. While it took radio 30 years to reach 50 million people and television 13 years, the Internet did it in just four years. Since its introduction in 1992, the World Wide Web has quickly become the window to a new world called Cyberspace a land free of geographical boundaries where planes and ships are obsolete and Internet Service Providers not Visas are required for international travel. At the dawn of a new millennium, this communication medium called the net has given new meaning to the phrase reach out and touch someone. So what implications does this rapidly flourishing technology have on the fulfillment of The Great Commission, the biblical mandate to reach the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Consider this: It took William Carey, the father of modern missions, five months to travel by steamboat from England to India in 1793. Today, in a matter of minutes, Timothy Abraham can share his testimony with devout Muslims in Egypt from his home in Bunn, N. C., by simply logging onto the Internet.
