BCLGIN. , Christian Character Declared Main Line to Heaven Temperance Lecture " Set for Tonight. Evangelist Bulgin spoke 'on "The Parable of the Ten Virgins" last night in the tabernacle on the East Side. There was a large audience. Professor Rose conducted an interesting service of songs by the large choir. Dr. Bul gin said that the "Parable of the Ten Virgins" had been the object of more destructive criticism than almost any parable in the Bible. It had been, he said, the target for many a hot shot. "These girls all slumbered, said the evangelist, "and slept, and Russell in Mmenlal Dawn' deviltry tells us to come yet out from among them, for all the church is asleep and going to hell. Do these girls represent the church? Yes. but the five wise slept, as well as the foolish, and so there could have been no sin in taking a nap, else these five wise ones were foolish, too. Jt is no sin for me to go to sleep tonight after preaching the gospel, but It's a sin for you to go to sleep for one minute unprepared to Gsa this parable teaches human selfishness. Why did not the wise virgins divide their oil 'ne foolish in their hour of need? Be cause the oil represents something that cannot be divided. Ingersoll said. Vhat outlandieh fools those girls were who had no oil. What a clumsy story The vessel In which oil was carried was an open one, and they were on a Jour ney requiring oil and should , have known that they had no oil That is what Christ said about them. They were fools, but no bigger fools than Tome church members. The o. rep ?eents you and me for the coming of the Savior. Downright Christian char acter is the main line to heaven u for without holiness no man can see God. Dr. Bulgin will deliver his lecture on "Temperance" tonight.
