When Lily Pinneo, a missionary nurse, was in West Africa, she contracted a deadly disease called Lassa Fever. After Lily was flown to New York for medical treatment, her temperature soared to 107'F. To reduce the feverm doctors packed her in ice and fed her intravenously. The fever subsided. After 9 weeks, she has lost 28 pounds and most of her hair. Yet somehoe, she survived.
In a laboratory, Dr.Casals carefully isolated and analyzed the Lassa virus. But he too fell ill from his exposure to the disease. At the time, no known treatment was effective. fortunately, nurse Pineo was convalescing and built up antibodies to the dread disease. She donated Blood plasma to Dr. Casals and he recovered too. Her blood saved his life
All of us are infected with the fatal disease of sin (Rom6:23). There is only one cure. It resides in the cleansing power of Jesus Christ's shed blood. Paul wrote, "Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath throug Him" (Rom5:9). The Righteous wrath of God against transgression has been fully satisfied through Jesus death in our place. All we need to do is repent, recogniza Him as our Savior, and receive spiritual cure for sin. Have you made that decision?
