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 2015 about 450 graduates
- Most grads are young – projection of 40 years of service each, thus 450 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 an additional 2,000 grads. (These future grads and their disciples are not counted in the 540,000 souls saved. That number will be many, many times larger.
