Besides the services on Sunday, meet ings have also been held evenings on Tuesday.Wednesday.Thursday and Fri day. The meetings will be continued through this week and next. Sunday evening Dr. Bulgin gave an eloquent and convincing talk on the Bible, a brief resume of which Is given below. He said: "I believe the Bible to be the In spired word of God because of Its his tory over attack. It is a tested blade fro mthe King's arsenal for It has been wrapped around the smutty gun barrel of many an Infidel argument but Its pages are brighter than gold. It shines right on through the dark of this sin cursed world. You never can put this old Bible out of this world for it is God's Book and God's world and you can't force God's Bible out of His own world.. . The Bible stands or it falls as a whole. In other words take all of It or none of it for if you cannot trust one part of It you cannot trust any of It, If God could have given a perfect revelation and did not he is not trust worthy. If He tried to give a perfect revelation and could not he is not God. If the Book Is from God it is absolutely true. If it is not from God It has no higher claim than any other book written by any man. Tom Payne and some of that infidel ilk long ago predicted that the Bible would be utterly destroyed and forgot ten in twenty years. That was fifty years ago; Jim Payne Is dead but the Bible Is still here and the very press that printed his bitter Infidel writings is now used extensively to print Bibles. Can't Destroy Bible Did you ever consider the enormity of the task of destroying the Bible? To do so sixty million copies print ed in every language and scattered ov er every quarter of the globe worth at least a dollar a copy would have to be bought up and burned. Go next to the libraries of the world and desroy the greatest works of literature for U the Bible were destroyed and forgotten it could be reproduced from profane literature. The art galleries of the world would next claim your attention because the mightiest painters of the world have chosen Bible scenes as the subject of their marvelous works, Having destroyed the priceless art treasures and the valuable libraries of the world go Into the realms of music and destroy the Elijah, the Messiah The Creation, St. Paul and a host of other masterpieces Inspired by the Bible and then go to the cities of the dead and erase from the monuments to the beloved dead every Bible text which bespeaks the faith of sleeping saints in The Book. Having accom plished this vandalism go Into the hearts of millions of the best people on earth and tear from them every passage from the Bible; for, If every other source of Information concerning the Bible were destroyed the saints could replace every passage of It from memory. I believe the Bible to be Inspired of God because while It was never In tended to teach science It Is yet In harmony with the latest scientific knowledge. vconcluded In next Issue) Llms and Sprsy Kslly Bros., phon 227 M.
