I'm pretty sure they know how many hits the site received and they can measure by bandwidth too.

However, there were churches that paid the premium price and they watched as a church. Of course, they are probably estimating those numbers too.

I feel privileged it is not just the Bible you take out of context. Apparently nothing in life has context for someone who tries to revive the horse he shot by beating it.

I understand that, Baron. But lets be happy anyone is saved, no matter if the numbers are right or not. Which I know you do. I'm just saying, don't jump at every little word of men.

The IP providors have graphics that can be tapped into that report how many are online.. It does come down if people log in and walk away from the screen or open another window.

Re: News Bulletin from the General Superintendent

As someone who was actually there, let me make a few observations:

1. I am glad to see the type of evangelism service that we had on Sunday Night in any Apostolic organization. I am glad for the results.
2. There were thousands of unsaved people there as a result of a very exhaustive outreach effort on the part of many local churches (mine included)
3. The numbers do not seem out of line with what I observed.
4. We had people who attend our church receive the Holy Ghost for the first time in this service.
5. I fully believe that the impact of what took place in this service will be seen in the natural and spiritual realm in my city.

Feel free to crucify me for my observations

A move of God starts somewhere. I also know you give God the glory for this. When we glorify God, we will always see sceptics and naysayers.

Good point. I have never seen someone filled with the Holy Ghost before they repented.
