May 2002 Chinese Airliner Crashes With 112 People on Board VOA News 7 May 2002 18:32 UTC  
The official news agency, Xinhua, says there is little chance that anyone survived the Tuesday night crash. Xinhua says more than 50 bodies have been recovered from the waters off Dalian, a port city in Liaoning province on the Yellow Sea. The news agency says air traffic controllers lost contact with the China Northern Airlines MD-82 jet after the captain reported a fire in the cabin, less than one hour after taking off from Beijing. Witnesses say the plane circled several times before plunging into the sea about 20 kilometers from the airport in Dalian. Some 30 rescue ships are at the scene, searching for victims. This is the second crash in less than a month involving a Chinese passenger plane. On April 15, an Air China flight from Beijing slammed into a mountain while trying to land at South Korea's second-largest city, Busan. More than 120 people were killed in that crash. Some information for this report provided by AP and Reuters.

World events are historic steps in the purpose and plan of God. The outcome of history is up to man - restricted only by sovereign limits imposed by God. The future events are consequences resulting from mankind exercising the gift of intelligence and free will in response to situations developing from past events. This human response is either synchronized to His Will or in rebellion to His Will. Behavior is either the manifestation of love or it's opposite - hate. As Christians we should be involved through loving (caring attitude and behavior for others) actions empowered by prayer, understanding, and submission to His Will. | |||
