Based on making 3 disciples yearly – II Tim. 2:2 - multiply/illustrated BICA Graduate As of the 201 graduating class, BICA will have nearly 486 graduates who know how to teach other people to teach other people the gospel. YR T Teachers of the Gospel G T T T Year 1 – BICA Graduate teaches 3 people to teach others the gospel = 4 total teachers Year 2 – 4 teachers of the gospel teach 3 more people each to teach = 16 total teachers Year 3 – 16 teachers of the gospel teach 3 more people each to teach = 64 total teachers Year 4 – 64 teachers of the gospel teach 3 more people each to teach =256 total teachers Year 5 – 256 teachers of the gospel teach 3 more people each to teach = 1024 total teachers This chart is based on one graduate. As of the 2016 year-end graduation, BICA will have nearly 486 graduates.

The Whole World Can be Reached in ONE Generation Year Teachers of the Gospel 3 per year Running Total of Baptisms at 5 per Year Average of 300 studies per student per year Persons taught to teach others per year by One Student 1 With the 2016 4 20 150 3 graduating class, 2 16 80 BICA is now have 64 320 almost 256 1,280 486 5 1,024 5,120 graduates. 6 4,096 20,480 7 16,384 81,920 300 8 65,536 327,680 9 262,144 1,310,720 1500 10 1,048,576 5,242,880 11 4,194,304 20,971,520

Pyramid will not be perfect. Year Running total of people taught to teach others who each teach 3 others per year Running Total of Baptisms at 5 per Year per teacher Average of 150 studies per student per year Persons affected by One Student 12 16,777,216 83,886,080 150 3 Column 2 is 13 67,108,864 335,544,320 based on a 14 268,435,456 1,342,177,280 perfect 15 1,073,741,824 5,368,709,120 Pyramid. 16 4,294,967,296 21,474,836,480 We realize 2400 49 that the In Just 15-1/2 years, everyone has heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ using II Tim 2:2 Total studies by one BICA student over 16 years By teaching 3 others to teach others Pyramid will not be perfect.

1 One student teaches three people each year how to present the gospel to other students (II Timothy 2:2) 2 Year two one student teaches three more people how to present the gospel to other students Still in year two, the three students of the BICA grad also teach three people how to present the gospel to other students 3 These figures are based on II Timothy 2:2 and only count teaching others to teach others how to present the gospel 4 For people living today, baptism is absolutely essential for our salvation. Jesus has provided no other way to salvation except through Him. We must be buried in the watery grave of baptism in order to be saved. (Mark 16:16 . . .) 5 Teachers of the gospel are shown in the 2nd column. Baptisms are shown in the 3rd column. Let's suppose that each teacher baptizes just five people per year. BICA students baptize between 15 and 60 people per year while students at the institute. 6 BICA estimates that a student will be a worker in the Lord's Kingdom an average of 40 years spreading the gospel, self-supported and teaching others to teach others in their own native culture. 7 In reality, every student graduating from BICA will have had over 600 Bible studies

Projections – (very conservative) By the end of 2016 about 486 graduates Most grads are young – projection of 40 years of service each, thus 486 graduates times 40 years = 18,000 years of service (like having 9 people working from the time of Christ until now.) If every year in the 18,000 years the grad and his many disciples only baptize 30 souls a year, this results in 540,000 people being baptized. In those 40 years, the schools should have at the present rate a total of 1291 grads. (These future grads and their disciples are not counted in the 540,000 souls saved. That number will be many, many times larger.

An Invitation to Help We trust God and our brethren to take the gospel to all of the lost. Please Help! You and BICA will give God the Glory.
