Pastor Jack Arnold, 69, died Sunday while preaching at Covenant Presbyterian Church in Florida. His sermon was about heaven. In fact, with his last words he quoted John Wesley: "Until my work on this earth is done, I am immortal. But when my work for Christ is done ... I go to be with Jesus," and then said "And when I go to heaven..." before collapsing and dying of cardiac arrest.
I don't think that's a sermon those Presbyterians will be forgetting anytime soon.

This story got me to thinking....If I knew the next time I preached would be the last time I preached...what would I preach about? If I knew I was going to die in the final minutes of that sermon, what would my last lines be?
Wow. What a way to go.
Thanks for linking to www.skitzoman.com, by the way. Just noticed the banner there.
No problem Robin
