ENTREE
The great Bible teacher H. Clay Trumbull was riding on a train next to a person who opened a flask and offered him a drink of whiskey. Dr. Trumbull declined the offer. A few minutes later the man repeated the offer, and again Dr. Trumbull turned him down. The third time the offer was made, the man said to Dr. Trumbull, “I bet you think I am a rather evil man doing all this drinking, don’t you?” “No,” said Dr. Trumbull. “I was thinking what a generous man you are to keep offering me a drink.” The entree was sufficient for Dr. Trumbull to lead the man to Christ before the journey ended.
