Overview- The Wise & The Foolish Virgins. Matthew 25:1-13.
In this week’s message we study Jesus’ second teaching or illustration on the importance of Christians living watchful lifestyles, or faithful and repentant lifestyles until He returns.
This week He gives us a parable about a Bridegroom that has gone away, and is coming back and 10 virgins (5 wise & 5 foolish) that are waiting for Him to return.
Were these 5 wise, and 5 foolish virgins all Christians?
Or were the 5 wise Christians only, while the 5 foolish were unsaved?
Jesus says that they all took lamps, but the foolish were foolish because they didn’t take extra oil enough to last them for when the Bridegroom returned.
What do the lamp and oil represent in this parable?
I answer all of these questions and more in this sermon, entitled “The Wise & The Foolish Virgins.”
May God bless you as you seek Him
