THE TEN VIRGINS

THE TEN VIRGINS

MATTHEW 25

FIVE WERE WISE

FIVE WERE FOOLISH

NOTICE THAT THEY WERE TEN VIRGINS.

THE WORD VIRGIN SIGNIFIES PURITY.

THEY WERE VIRGINS AND WERE ALL WAITING FOR THE BRIDEGROOM.

THE WORD OF GOD IS PURE MAKING WISE THE SIMPLE.

FIVE OF THESE WERE WISE.

JESUS CHRIST IS COMING SOON.

WHILE WAITING FOR THE COMING OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, WE NEED TO BE WISE.

THE LAW OF THE LORD IS PERFECT, CONVERTING THE SOUL: THE TESTIMONIES OF THE LORD IS SURE, MAKING WISE THE SIMPLE.

THE ENTRANCE OF THY WORDS GIVETH LIGHT; IT GIVETH UNDERSTANDING UNTO THE SIMPLE.

THY TESTIMONIES ARE WONDERFUL: THEREFORE DOTH MY SOUL KEEP THEM.

IF ANY OF YOU LACK WISDOM, LET HIM ASK OF GOD, THAT GIVETH TO ALL MEN LIBERALLY, AND UPBRAIDETH NOT; AND IT SHALL BE GIVEN HIM. 

WE NEED TO MEDITATE ON THE WORD OF GOD DAY AND NIGHT.

THE FIVE WISE VIRGINS HAD EXTRA OIL.

YOU NEED EXTRA OIL.

AT MID NIGHT THE BRIDEGROOM CAME; AND HIS COMING (ARRIVAL) WAS ANNOUNCED. THOSE WHO HAD EXTRA OIL (WERE READY) ENTERED. THEY ROSE UP TO MEET THE BRIDEGROOM. (ROSE UP TO THE OCCASION) THEY WERE READY. THEY WENT INTO THE MARRIAGE FEAST AND THE DOOR WAS SHUT.

WHILE THEY WENT TO GET EXTRA OIL, THE DOOR WAS SHUT.

THERE ARE THINGS YOU CAN NOT TRANSFER TO OTHERS.

SALVATION CAN NOT BE TRANSFERRED.  

WHEN YOU BELIEVE GOD, THROUGH JESUS CHRIST, YOU ARE GIVEN THE HOLY SPIRIT. THE HOLY WILL DIRECT YOU AND SUSTAIN YOUR SALVATION. REMEMBER THAT JESUS CHRIST SAVED YOU AND WILL SUSTAIN YOUR SALVATION.

DO NOT TAKE THE EASY WAY OUT. ALWAYS INSIST ON GODLINESS. CARRYING A EXTRA OIL MUST HAVE BEEN DIFFICULT AT THE BEGINNING.

YOU MUST READ THE BIBLE AND PRAY TO GOD. WHEN YOU DO THAT YOU WILL BENEFIT. GOD WILL AFFECT ALL PARTS OF YOUR LIFE.

PEOPLE MAY CALL YOU NAMES AT THE BEGINNING. BE PATIENT WITH GOD. AT THE FULNESS OF TIME. GOD WILL WORK OUT HIS PURPOSE IN YOUR LIFE.

 ON YOUR OWN YOU CAN DO NOTHING.

ON YOUR OWN YOU CAN NOT DO IT.

YOU NEED THE POWER OF GOD TO KEEP YOU FROM FALLING. WITHOUT THE POWER OF GOD IN YOU; MANY THINGS WILL HAPPEN THAT WILL LEAD TO THE DOWNFALL OF A PERON.

When you have a discerning spirit you will be sensitive to your environment.

he will strengthen you in the event of adversity or pErSEcution and ensure that you will not be tempted above measure.

he will order your ways and ensure that any problem or activity that will affect your christianity adversly is kept away from you.

your faith in god will be strengthened by virtue of your day by day dealing With our lord jesus christ.
