The Ten Virgins

Mattityahu 25:1–13
watchfulnesskingdompreparation
What Yeshua is saying

Five wise virgins bring extra oil for their lamps; five foolish do not, and miss the bridegroom when He comes at midnight.

The explanation

The bridegroom is Yeshua. The wait is the age between His ascension and His return. Oil cannot be borrowed at the last minute — what you carry into the night is what you'll have. Watchfulness is not anxiety; it is keeping your lamp full now, before the cry comes.
