    THis sermon is about the parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25:1-13. It is about not knowing the day or the hour of Christ's return and being prepared for that day. it is a reminder of Correctness, Committment and Companions.

What I mean is, the lesson may be simple, but the action we are called to, seems to be hard for many people. Is it ...read more
