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.

Sees Lord Coming in the Clouds of Heaven
1915
"God intended the truths revealed in the book of Revelation for the special benefit of the churches. We read, 'I, Jesus, have sent mine angel to testify these things in the churches.' Rev. 22:16, said Evangelist Booth last night. In a sermon on, "Can the Book of Revelation Be Understood?" at the tent, Washington avenue and Twenty-sixth street.
Continuing, he said:
"All heaven is interested in the messages of the book of Revelation. God gave the truths to his Son. Christ sent his angel to John, and the prophet wrote the messages for the church. The book is called the Revelation of Jesus Christ. 'The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John, who bare record.' Rev. 1:1,2.
"A special blessing is pronounced on the book. 'Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein, for the time is at hand.' Rev. 1:3.
"God never intended these sayings to be sealed, and has warned against teaching so. 'Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book; for the time is at hand.' Rev. 22:10. Christ is revealed in every chapter and verse of the book. The fountains of life flow freely from the truths of the book, and all are invited to drink. 'And the spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will let him take of the water of life freely!'
"Fearful penalty is pronounced on one that would take anything from the book. But how could I as a minister take the whole book from the flock? Well, simply by declaring the book sealed and not for the people. I, however, read the fearful result, 'If any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away His part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things written in the book.' Rev. 22:19.
"The book of Revelation reveals two great fundamental doctrines — Christ's second coming, and the preparation to meet him. It contains messages for the present time. The people who will be developed in the last days, as a result of the preaching of the truths of the book, are described, 'Here is the patience of the saints; here are they that keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.' John then sees the Lord coming in the clouds of heaven. Rev. 14:12,14."
The theme tonight will be, "Will Rome Rule the World Again?" The study will be illustrated. The thirteenth chapter of Revelation will be considered.
