The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1901-03-03

The Christian Endeavor topic for the
week beginning March is found in Luke
xiii, 6-9. The subject is the parable
OF the barren fig tree. This parable was
spoken by Christ to teach the Jews that
unless they repented and brought forth
fruit they would perish Plate had
slain Galileans at worship and mingled
their blood with the blood of their sacri-
tees. A tower had fallen In Sloan and
had killed several persons The Jews
concluded that these things were proofs
that these people had sinned. They look
ed upon these calamities as the judg-
ments Of God for sin, and as no special
judgments came upon them they. falsely
concluded that they were righteous and
that the absence of calamity and adj
versity was conclusive proof that they
enjoyed Gods favor and blessing To
abuse their minds Of these errors Christ
told them the parable of the barren fig
tree. 1t brought forth no fruit The
master ordered it to be cut down. The
vine dresser pleaded that 1t might have
one more trial and then declared that if
1t bore no fruit he would agree to it's
destruction. The fact to be impressed
is that barrenness is not in accordance
with the will of God and Of nature. There
is work for each person, and unless
works abound the individual is a cum
berer Of the ground. useless and bar
