The Rev. Jack Arnold, 69, was nearing the end of his sermon Sunday at
Covenant Presbyterian Church when he grabbed the podium before falling to the
floor, said the Rev. Michael S. Beats, the church's associate pastor.
Before
collapsing, Arnold quoted the 18th-century Bible scholar John Wesley who said,
"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," Beats said in a telephone interview.
Several parishioners with medical backgrounds tried to revive Arnold
and paramedics were called, but he appeared to die instantly, Beats said.
Christian encouragement for men -- an evangelical perspective on current events, Scripture, and coming up the husband and father learning curve. Boldness without gentleness is tyranny; gentleness without boldness is not Christlike. Jesus was both tough and tender.
