Dr. Parkhurat, the famous u,ve discoverer of New York City, announces that lie intends to ihe re-for- m Scriptures. Not' reform, gentle retiler, but He finds that some portions of the Book of Books are sadly in of his services and proposes to arrange them to conform to modern ideas. Which modern ideas are Parkhursts The Sioux City ideas, of course. in Tribune, commenting upon this proposed action of the Gotham minister, says this announcement makes the first dent in his reputation. Just as though the reputation of Parkhurst could be dented. Parkhurst is a freak minister. Endowed with a good education and considerable shrewdness, drawing a good salary from a church, whose members enjoy hearing some one roasted here, and promised another and an eternal one in the hereafter, he has explored dives, visited dance halls, called on saloon keepers after hours and viewed with bis own eyes all the wickedness he could get into contact with. He has been inside Brodies and hopped, skipped and jumped at McGlorys old joint. Incognito he has interviewed John L. Sullivan and hobnobbed with Jim Corbett in their own gin mills. And then on some succeeding Sunday he has stood in his pulpit and hurled anathemas right and left six, four hands across and Balance to the corners. re-for- m re-fashi- on, re-vam- p, ft ft Did any one ever hear ' of Parkhurst preaching a sermon on Christ and Him Crucified? He may have done so in the remote long ago, but please dont all speak at once brethren. Can any one recall a sermon by Parkhurst on the wonderful saving power of Divine love? Has any person ever read a discourse by Parkhurst on a text like, Verily I say unto you; this day shalt thou be with me in Paradise, or anything faintly resembling , it? Hardly. With him it has been one stream of imprecation at vice and its victims, the police force and tbe government generally. Parkhurst believes in legislating men and women into the church. It is refreshing however to learn that Parkhurst wants to reform the Scriptures, for it indicates that in his latter days he has been reading them some. And that is a thing to marvel at. We wish he had begun earlier in life. He might have been a better man. But now that he has determined on remodeling the works of Divinity, perhaps we may look for some changes in accordance with modern ideas. For instance, in the part where He wrote on the ground and then said: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her, will doubtless be made to read: Let her be sent up for ninety days and. the captain of the precinct be transferred to the water front. Or in lieu of I was an hungered and ye gave me no meat, let it read: I was and they run me in for vagrancy.hungry Instead of the saying: Greater love hath no man than this, than that he lay down his life for his friend; cause the Master to say: The best thing one can do for a sinner is to have him sent to the island-fosix months. Change the statement made to the dying thief to: You are getting all that is coming to you and ought to have been here two years ago. ft ft There is no need to the Scriptures or to modernize them. Modern society can follow their teachings without changing but few customs. re-for- m r |
