Hide bound church members and
parasites of the world who absorb
the beauty of Christianity, return
ing nothing, were the objects of
sharp thrusts in sermon "The Sin
of Barrenness' delivered by DR.. =.
j. Bulgin last night at the Union
tabernacle Dealing with the grasping
man who was likened to the fig tree
that was withered for having brought
no fruit in its season, the reV.valist
declared that the hypocrite-miser
should lower his shingle and with
draw from the church.
"The modern world pictures the
church with a can Of pork and beans
Irene hand and ham sandwich in
the other going about crying a fif-
teen cent supper for its upkeep be-
cause of the barrennes of its wealthy
members" DR.. Bulgin declared in
showing how the church has been
commercialized. Man belongs to a
divine God by a thteefold title.' he
said
Entering upon his subject "The
Blacklist Sin In the Catalog," the
speaker said in part: "The world to-
siay has gotten away from the real
scriptural reading Cut it down, why
occupy the space to no purpose used
in connection with a barren fig tree.
It prefers to follow man made creeds
and false doctrines. Some sects even
declare that the Bible is not an in
spired book. The fact that since it
was written, some of it over two
thousand years ago, and has never
changed with advancing age proves
to me that it was inspired. Pick UP
works of science such as biology
and astronomy. and l challenge you
to find an accepted work now that is
fifty years old. God changes lang
uage after it conveys his thought
and kills it finally by knocking it in
the head with a sledge hammer.
"The fig tree perished because ii
occupied a space to no purpose in the
vineyard of God. Christ came to the
fig tree and cursed it so that it died
before the sun went down. In the
case of the fig tree, there is fruit
before the leaf and God blighted the
tree because it had no religion. Bring
forth fruit you ypocrite-produce ol
