An Amazing Testimony re: Alaska Airlines Flight 261 To one and all:
John Hernandez (a friend of ours at church) recently shared a testimony
that is so remarkable, and credible, that we feel compelled to share it
with a wider audience.
John related that last week he talked with an Alaska Airlines pilot
who is involved in the investigation of the horrific crash of Alaska
Flight 261.
The pilot has listened to the cockpit voice recorder from the downed
plane and he reported that for the last 9 minutes of the flight, the
wife of the pastor from Monroe, Washington can be heard sharing the
Gospel with the passengers over the planes intercom system. Just
before the final dive into the Pacific Ocean, she can be heard leading
the sinners prayer for salvation.
The pilot also told John that the flight data recorder from the plane
indicates that there is no good explanation for how the plane was able
to stay in the air for those final 9 minutes. But it did stay in
the air until the pastor's wife had a chance to share the Gospel with
the very attentive passengers and presumably lead many to salvation in
Christ.
So, in the midst of this tragedy, nearly 90 people had an
extraordinary opportunity to get right with their Maker just prior to
meeting Him.
