Based on what I see daily out in the “world” and the good old “God Bless America” (let me hold my nose from the stench of saying that), I’d say probably 5% of Americans are True Saved By The Blood of Christ Christians. Probably 2% of the world is Christian. Think about those numbers. Scary... The Lord is separating the sheep from the goats. He’s coming soon and He is absolutely right when He says this in Luke 18:8: “However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?” I think your post is spot on. And sadly, I concur with your estimates.
"For many are invited, but few are chosen."
Matthew 22:14
There is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords using that word again. "Few."
I'll tell you this though: I don't deserve His Grace. For the life of me, I don't understand sometimes why He pursued me. But He did, and I accepted the Grace of Jesus Christ.
I am saved by grace, through faith. I didn't get "somethign for nothing" through "cheap grace." But I was given everything because of Christ's sacrifice on the cross.
I'll tell you something else: when I come face-to-face with Him, I am going to fall to my knees and bow my head as low as it will go. If He picks me up or tells me to rise, I will. But first, I will fall before Him. Because I want to. It is altogether appropriate that I do so.

Amen to all you posted!
That day might be sooner than we all think.
