People drawn unto death
(Veses 11 & 12 of Chapter 24 in Proverbs are clubbed together).
If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain; (Proverbs 24:11)If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works? (Proverbs 24:12)
We need to forbear to deliver those people who are sick in hospitals or who face gallows as death penalty. We have to pray for their deliverance from death beds by visiting them. There are many servants of God who visit hospitals and prisons to minister to those who are on the brink of death. We should not say, "we do not know them". God is the keeper of their souls. That is why we preach the gospel to those who are on the death rows in prisons and those who are sick unto death in hospitals. "I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me" (Mat.25:36).
God will render to every man who is on the brink of death according to his or her deeds after death. But He will hold us accountable for their salvation.
