* Arthur STACE in Sydney, an alcoholic, was once jailed for excessive drinking. One day, while roaming on the street, he went into a church and heard the pastor’s message that one should give thoughts on one’s ending. He shouted, “Eternity! Eternity! May everyone in town hear “Eternity”. Let’s face it! Where will you spend your eternity!” The message touched Arthur right at his heart, bringing him to follow the Lord faithfully.
