How many galaxies and stars are there?
There are billions and billions of galaxies, each with billions of stars, and also trillions and trillions of stars. No exact count is given; the number is so vast that a nine-year-old tried to write it with a 1 followed by zeros down a sheet of paper.
Les explains that the number of galaxies and stars is beyond human comprehension. He notes there are billions and billions of galaxies, each containing billions of stars, and he also refers to trillions and trillions of stars. To illustrate, he tells of a nine-year-old boy who wrote a 1 followed by zeros down the length of a sheet of typewriter paper, adding 'and to the same power.' Les points out that not one of these stars has ever been out of control. The same Lord Jesus who controls them will one day take believers off the earth, so He will have no trouble calling a few million people off the planet.
