Blind Landing<\/div><\/div>\nOn a dare from his copilot, the pilot of a Soviet airliner attempted a blind landing and crashed.
\nTwo 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.
\nDuring the plane\u2019s 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.
\nThe 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\u2019t shine into them and they won\u2019t be converted and saved. The devil would have men attempt \u201cblind landings\u201d 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.
\nThe pilot was one of a handful of survivors of the crash. For his rashness, he was tried and sentenced to fifteen years in prison.
\nA Soviet newspaper\u2019s report of the trial said that the pilot performed the action in an attempt to \u201ctest his flying abilities.\u201d It blamed the crash on his \u201cexaggerated sense of self-assurance.\u201d
\nFriend, will you not let these familiar verses: \u201cFor all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God,\u201d and, \u201cThe wages of sin is death,\u201d abolish your sense of self-assurance as far as making it into heaven by your own abilities is concerned?
\nAt Calvary\u2019s 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 \u201can exaggerated sense of self-assurance,\u201d will refuse to see their need of salvation. When they die, they will make a \u201cblind landing\u201d in eternity and end up crashing into hell.
\nWon\u2019t 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 \u201cblessed assurance\u201d of sins forgiven and a home in heaven.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
