World A, the Unevangelized World

We measure the world according to its response to Christ. World A is the unevangelized world, or those individuals who have not yet heard of Christ, Christianity or the Gospel. World B are those who have heard the Gospel, but have not yet responded. World C are those who are professed members of a Christian church. In the case of countries, peoples, cities, provinces, and other large segments, World A is those that are less than half evangelized; World B, over 50% evangelized but less than 60% Christian, and World C, over 60% Christian or over 95% evangelized.

Presently, more than 70% of Christian effort and ministry is directed at people who already profess to be Christians, while less than 5% of our total missionary activity is focused on those who have never once had a chance to hear about the good news of the Gospel. This is a scandal.
