THE GREATEST DISCOVERY

Dr. James Simpson, born in 1811, was responsible for the discovery of chloroform's anesthetic qualities, leading to its medical use worldwide. He also pioneered a number of medical procedures and accurately predicted the discovery of the X-ray and it's use. Dr. Simpson was president of the Royal Medical Society and Royal Physician to the Queen, the highest medical position of his day. He once stated, "Christianity works because it is supremely true and therefore supremely livable, There is nothing incompatible between religion and science."
When asked what he felt his greatest discovery was, Dr. Simpson stated " it was to know I am a sinner and that I could be saved by the grace of God. A man has missed the whole meaning of life if he has not entered into an active, living relationship with God through Jesus Christ."

For grace are ye saved by faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works lest any man boast.

Ephesians 2: 8-9
