The parable of the ten wise vigins
Back in the days when
only young men prepared for pastoral ministry, a certain Dr. Eislen, president
of Garrett Seminary, preached on this parable in chapel. When he reached the
climax of his message, he yelled at his seminarians, "Young men, tell me,
would you rather be in the light with the wise virgins, or out in the dark with
the foolish virgins?" Such laughter arose that chapel was dismissed early
that day!
