OK Ebbie. I'll concede. You obviously know more about the inner workings of the Nazi mind than I do. Nazi nurses need not apply.

Aggie Nostique! That's easy. You save their physical life and that's all you do at the moment. The theological reasoning? Life or death is ultimately in the hands of the Creator and where there is life, there is hope. If the person is meant to live your efforts will succeed. If not, they won't. Any decision they have made for or against God or Whatever they esteem most highly is a done deal at the time of death. I would imagine that a Christian health worker would be constantly, silently praying all the while they worked to save that person. Ultimately the spiritual matters are between an individual and God.

It is always a personal decision between an individual and God. It is a true statement in the Christian faith that no can "save" you. They can only present you with God's Word. Salvation is solely the office and the prerogative of the Absolute Sovereign. Reference I Thessalonians 2:13. Hey if God's Word doesn't speak to your needs, there is nothing I can say or do that will go beyond anything that God has already done or said. Death just finalizes the deal. Hebrews 9:27. Just as there is physical triage there is also spiritual triage.
