What is the meaning of the passage of the ten virgins (Part 14)?
Remember of the miracle that the Creator made in the life of the widow:
• 2Ki 4:3-7 -> “Then he said, “Go outside, borrow vessels from all your neighbors, empty vessels and not too few. Then go in and shut the door behind yourself and your sons and pour into all these vessels. And when one is full, set it aside.” So she went from him and shut the door behind herself and her sons. And as she poured they brought the vessels to her. When the vessels were full, she said to her son, “Bring me another vessel.” And he said to her, “There is not another.” Then the oil stopped flowing. She came and told the man of God, and he said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debts, and you and your sons can live on the rest.”.
See that the widow should get as much vessels as she could. The more the vessel, the greater the multiplication of the oil. In addition to this, Jesus said:
• Joh 15:8 -> “By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples.”.
• Joh 15:2 -> “Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takes away, and every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.”.
So, don’t think, as many counterfeit believers, in seek Jesus only for themselves. Do you recollect the promise of Psalm 23?
• Psa 23:5 -> “You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows.”.
The Creator anoint us with His wisdom and knowledge so that we can share them with people around us and all of them can be enlightened with the Holy Spirit. Jesus call us to be instrument of His salvation (reconciliation with Him – 2Cor 5:18-20). It isn’t for us to stay with His salvation only for us.
The problem with the fool virgins is that, although they respected Jesus’ name (and all wisdom and knowledge contained in His identity), they didn’t love His name to the point of convey It to their vessels.
So, the bridegroom delayed so that the heart of the virgins could be tried. Hence to be “10” the virgins: to show us that Jesus only come to us when our fidelity toward Him is verified.
However, only the 5 wise virgins could see the preciosity of His grace to the point of assuming the responsibility of convey it to her vessels.
Hence the number 5. Five virgins (fools) weren’t responsible in manifest His precious wisdom and ken with her vessel and, for this, they lost the grace.
So, first of all, seek Jesus’ love so that you can be full of Jesus’ vessels. And, when you get them, follow the advice below:
• 1Jn 1:3 -> “that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.”.
Next, follow Jesus’ calling for you:
• Mat 28:19 -> “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,”.
• Mar 16:15 -> “And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.”.
Make disciples filling them with Jesus’ wisdom and ken. And don’t think that the oil in your vessels is sufficient. The problem with the fool virgins was that they thought that their wisdom and knowledge was sufficient to keep the flame of the Holy Spirit burning amidst all the apostasy that will take hold of the world when the seventieth week of Daniel starts.
Nonetheless, at this time, the Holy Spirit will be taken away of the world (there won’t be any revelation of Him and, for this, the love of many will grow cold, to wit, of the fool virgins – Mat 24:12). People will seek out a genuine word of the Holy Spirit, but there won’t be any one:
• 2Th 2:3 -> “Let no one deceive you in any way. For that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction,
• 2Th 2:7 -> “For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work. Only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way.
• Amo 8:11-13 -> ““Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord GOD, “when I will send a famine on the land— not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD. They shall wander from sea to sea, and from north to east; they shall run to and fro, to seek the word of the LORD, but they shall not find it. “In that day the lovely virgins and the young men shall faint for thirst.”.
At this time, the correct should be:
• 1Th 5:11 -> “Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.”.
So, have a good day stirring up the love of the Creator in the people.
Tomorrow we will carry on.
