Doctor Don’t Let Me Die
The resident doctor bowed his head in silent prayer to God for help in this newest case brought into the burn ward. The twenty-year-old patient had been burned over 95% of his body. He was the victim of a fiery truck accident. At the bedside was his frightened young wife. The medical people knew that, aside from a miracle, the longest the patient could live would be two or possibly three weeks. As the doctor opened his eyes after his prayer, they met the intense gaze of the patient, a penetrating look of fear and wild determination.
“Doctor, don’t let me die! I won’t die. I won’t!”
“I will do all within my power for you,” the doctor answered gently, “but power over death is God’s alone.”
“God!” He almost spat the word. “Satan is my god!” On his arm was tattooed a supposed picture of Satan.
Horror filled Dr. Jim Perry’s soul. He looked at the young wife. “And you? Are you a Satan worshiper?”
She was not. Again turning to Armado, the patient, he said firmly: “Your greatest need is to change masters. Satan is a hard master. You need Jesus Christ.”
A negative movement from the patient closed the subject. Dr. Perry had been warned not to become emotionally involved with the patients, but the battle for the young man’s life could not be, to him, separated from the struggle for his soul. He didn’t dare ignore the terrible need of this young man.
So great was the Christian doctor’s dedication to the case that the wife exclaimed one day, “Doctor, I don’t understand you! Don’t you ever leave to eat or sleep? Whatever it is you have, I want it too.”
He gladly told her that he knew Jesus Christ as his Lord and Saviour. The wife came to know Jesus as her Saviour, and together they prayed for the dying husband.
The doctor’s own tears often made it difficult for him to put into words the tenderness, the greatness of the love of God in sending His own beloved Son to take his place in judgment at Calvary, but at last Armado said the words they longed to hear. Yes, he would take Jesus Christ as his Saviour.
Soon after this, he was no longer able to speak. Was it real with him? The doctor longed for more assurance that the Lord had indeed won the victory over Satan. One day when Armado was in obvious distress over a physical need which he tried without success to express, an idea flashed into Perry’s mind.
“Armado, don’t struggle to tell me. Just tell the Lord Jesus. He will help you if you belong to Him.”
Within minutes, everyone who had duties concerning Armado came to that room as if drawn by a magnet! His need was met, and the Christian doctor rejoiced at this little sign from the gracious Lord.
“The Lord is far from the wicked: but He heareth the prayer of the righteous” (Proverbs 15:29). Before anyone can be termed “righteous,” the deep, complete cleansing of the blood of Jesus Christ is necessary. “The blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanseth us from all sin.” 1 John 1:7.

Blind Landing
On a dare from his copilot, the pilot of a Soviet airliner attempted a blind landing and crashed.
Two minutes before landing, the pilot ordered the flight engineer to pull blinds over the windshield. He tried to bring the plane down using only instruments. Blind landings were allowed only on training flights, and required an experienced instructor with full visibility to be in the next seat, but the pilot broke every rule.
During the plane’s descent the pilot made several misjudgments. At 0.8 seconds before landing the blinds were released, which revealed that they were missing the runway. The pilot tried to abort the landing, but was too late. The plane struck, made a gigantic leap, overturned and caught fire.
The pilot, urged on by the copilot, caused a meaningless loss of life. Many people today, urged on by the god of this world (Satan), lower blinds over the eyes of their hearts so that the light from the glorious gospel of Christ won’t shine into them and they won’t be converted and saved. The devil would have men attempt “blind landings” in eternity, and he does all he can to keep them in the dark spiritually. He knows that, unless a soul repents and turns to Christ, that soul will spend eternity in hell with him. This is what he wants.
The pilot was one of a handful of survivors of the crash. For his rashness, he was tried and sentenced to fifteen years in prison.
A Soviet newspaper’s report of the trial said that the pilot performed the action in an attempt to “test his flying abilities.” It blamed the crash on his “exaggerated sense of self-assurance.”
Friend, will you not let these familiar verses: “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God,” and, “The wages of sin is death,” abolish your sense of self-assurance as far as making it into heaven by your own abilities is concerned?
At Calvary’s cross the Lord Jesus died for sinners. The blood He shed there is sufficient to wash away the sins of every member of the human race if only they will trust in Him. Many, because of “an exaggerated sense of self-assurance,” will refuse to see their need of salvation. When they die, they will make a “blind landing” in eternity and end up crashing into hell.
Won’t you come as a lost sinner to the Lord Jesus and have your sins washed away in His precious blood? Those who trust in Him are entitled to have “blessed assurance” of sins forgiven and a home in heaven.

Pardon Refused–Large Print Tract

A Pardon Refused
About two hundred years ago a man named George Wilson was sentenced to be hanged for robbing the United States mails and for murder. Andrew Jackson, who was then President, exercised his prerogative and sent him a pardon. Wilson, however, refused it, and insisted that it was not a pardon unless he accepted it.
The Attorney-General said that the law was silent on this point and the matter was referred to the Supreme Court. Chief Justice Marshall gave the following decision: “A pardon is a paper, the value of which depends on its acceptance by the person implicated. It is hardly to be supposed that one under sentence of death would refuse to accept a pardon, but if it is refused it is no pardon. George Wilson must be hanged!” And he was.
What could have induced Wilson to refuse the pardon that meant life and liberty to him? I do not know, but it was no greater folly than that which leads thousands to refuse, day after day, the pardon that is freely offered them by God. Men need pardon because they are offenders against God. Sin is a terrible offense in His sight, and all have sinned. All, therefore, need pardon. None can earn it, for men are not only sinners but “without strength.”
“For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly” (Romans 5:6).
But the Lord “is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” God has not left us to perish without hope. On the ground of the atonement made by His own Son, He offers a free pardon to all. However, that pardon, if not accepted, will do you no good. Do not, I beg you, let this priceless pardon slip from you through indifference or stubbornness of heart.
“He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name” (John 1:11-12).

Duty or Love?–Color Tract

It was Friday afternoon, and Albert Drecker was on duty at the train bridge over the Passaic River. He had opened the bridge to allow a boat to pass through, and now he was about to close it in time for the New York train to race across the bridge.
Just then Albert’s little boy Peter came running along the embankment towards him. But Peter suddenly lost his footing, slipped and plunged down the steep riverbank into the deep water below. Almost at the same instant Albert Drecker heard the whistle of the approaching train in the distance. Even though he couldn’t see the train yet, Drecker knew that unless the bridge were closed immediately, the train would hurtle over the edge and into the river. Saving Peter’s life would be easy, but if he stopped to rescue him, how many others would die in a massive train wreck? What was he to do?
Decision
In agony as he watched his son drowning before his eyes, Drecker stayed at his post. Painfully slowly the great bridge swung closed, and seconds later the train roared safely across. Instantly Drecker dived into the water and dragged Peter to shore. Heartbroken, he found it was too late — his boy was dead.
Can’t we understand the feelings of Albert Drecker? It was a terrible decision he had to make. He longed to save his son, but he could not save him and the train passengers too. While he worked frantically, he watched the desperate struggles of his drowning son. The train crossed safely. His son lost his life. How deeply thankful those passengers were when they learned how Drecker had spared their lives instead of his son’s.
Perfect Love
Now think about another story which tells about perfect love and perfect obedience. Look by faith at Christ on His cross, and see there how God gave up His own dear Son to that awful death to spare guilty sinners and offer salvation free to all. There was no other way that sinners could be saved.
Should those who deserve punishment for their sins be sent to an everlasting hell, or should God send His own Son into this world to bear this judgment for them? This is the great question. Thank God, for His love was so great “that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).
Albert Drecker did not send his son into the river — he fell in. But God the Father sent His Son to be our Saviour. “In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him” (1 John 4:9).
Do you respond with deep gratitude to God for His wonderful love to you? Have you ever thanked Him for it and for the finished work of Christ on the cross? If you have never done this, why not thank Him today and receive the Lord Jesus as your own Saviour? To accept Him brings eternal salvation now; to reject Him will bring eternal judgment.
“He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abid­eth on him” (John 3:36).
