The parable of the ten
virgins signifies that when God gives you a task you are supposed to put your
all into it. When you are faithful with a few things God entrusts you with. He
entrusts you with more things and you share in his happiness. He again offers
you rich rewards freely because you have done your part.
When the bridegroom
that is Jesus appears, will your oil run out? Or you will have enough oil to
wait for his arrival? How do we make sure our oil does not run out? The answer
lies in 2 peter 1:5-8 to confirm our calling and election . For this reason, we
should make every
effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and
to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to
perseverance, godliness; and
to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in
increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and
unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
