    In the parable of the 10 Virgins, Jesus uses a wedding to describe the excitement about the Rapture. But it's also a warning. Half of the community of believers will not be ready when He comes. The Midnight Cry should wake us all to preparation.

    Most of us are too spiritual to think of eventualities in our planning thereby neglect taking precautions. The foolish five couldn’t go with the Groom because they refused to take precaution even when they saw others did. Wisdom is the principal thing!

    The story of the ten virgins in the book of Matthew 25:1-13 comes with a load of lessons and several sermons have been preached and are still being preached on it. Our focus today anyways is a critical look at the five that the Bible tagged “fool” among the ten virgins. What were ...read more
