A Treat Promised

1916

Dr. Tucker to Preach at Presbyterian Church Sunday

W. Leon Tucker will be the preacher at the Presbyterian church tomorrow at both services. His subject in the morning will be "A Corrupt Leper and Two Clean Birds." His subject in the evening will be "A Heifer Upon Its Haunches." This will be the last opportunity for Tyronians to hear this wonderful Bible teacher.

This evening Mr. Tucker will speak on the "European War in the Light of Prophecy." Does God have anything to say about the times in which we are living now? Do we know anything about our future and the future history of mankind? Do we know anything about the future of the earth on which we are dwelling now? Do you know what God means in the book of the Revelation by the White Horse? The Red Horse? The Black Horse? The Pale Horse? What do these figures mean in plain speech? Mr. Tucker will tell you tonight. Is the world growing better? Will man bring in the golden age? Is there a golden age coming for mankind?

Opportunity was represented among the Greeks by a man with a tuft of hair on his forehead and the back of his head was bald. This was what they meant. If you did not catch the man as he passed by, by the tuft of hair in front, when he had passed by, you could not catch him, because there was nothing to get hold of. These are days of opportunity to hear God's word. What have they meant to you? Have you availed yourself of these golden privileges. Go hear Mr. Tucker this evening and go tomorrow morning and evening.
