The Ten Virgins And The Extra Oil by FreshGreen: 12:03pm On Oct 07, 2021 |
THE TEN VIRGINS AND THE EXTRA OIL In the Book of Matthew chapter 25, Jesus gave a parable of the Ten virgins in which five of them were foolish and five were wise. We need to understand that all of them were virgins, meaning saved and separated for Christ. All of them had lamps which is the word of God. The Bible says in Proverbs 6:23, “For the commandment is a lamp.” And all went out to meet the bridegroom. All of them were expecting the rapture, looking forward to it but not all of them were qualified for it at end. The difference between the wise virgins and foolish virgins is their extra oil. The Bible says, “Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, 4 but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.” If you are saved, but you do not save extra oil, you do not go extra mile, you will become foolish at the end of your Christian journey. So what is the extra oil? The extra oil is something you do after you are saved, the extra mile you go which is sanctification, working out your salvation with fear and trembling. The extra is the level of your sanctification. You don’t just get salvation in Christ and settle for nothing as if you will die the next hour, no! You must go further, go extra, get extra oil of sanctification, of becoming more like Jesus every day. Some Christians say after salvation, you just sit down and do nothing, that the righteousness of Jesus Christ covers you, that you don’t do any work of righteousness, that it is all by faith in Christ without work of righteousness. These are the foolish virgins who will be disappointed on the last day. But you will not want to be disappointed like the 5 foolish virgins. You will not want to get salvation and still go to hell because of lack of extra oil of sanctification. You will not want to go to hell from church, you will not want to do all and still miss the rapture, God forbid! So you need to be wise now. Do the needful when you need to. When you need to do restitution, do it, don’t mind the foolish virgin Christians who say you are going too far, that you are going extra, don’t mind them. When you need to abstain from all sorts of worldly dresses, women wearing trousers, tights, doing makeup, yes Christians are also wearing and using them, in fact they are also virgins of Christ, but foolish virgins. Do not copy the majority foolish virgins in your Christian life in this end time. The fact that they are Christians, saved, born again and serving God does not mean they will make the rapture at the end. The foolish Christian virgins are frivolous and freely miss with the world, they can tell littles lies, watch all good and bad movies, they can fight their spouses, keep secrets from their spouses; they can wear anything, they can listen to any music, they can work at anywhere including sinful companies such as Brewery producing alcoholic drinks, they are at liberty, because they are foolish Christian virgins. When foolish Christian virgins see you going extra, taking extra oil of total separation from all worldliness, from worldly movies, music and dresses, they will tell you that you are being legalistic, that the little lies, giving bribes to Police, bribing to get contracts or changing your age to get job are normal, that using makeups, fixing wig, nails, watching secular, Hollywood, Nollywood, Bollywood, boxing, wrestling, TV reality shows, that all these do not matter. The foolish Christian virgins do not care about sanctification within or without, no extra mile, no extra oil, no extra. What does the Bible says, in Matthew 25, from verse 6, “ “And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’ 7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9 But the wise answered, saying, ‘No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’ 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut.11 “Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ 12 But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ After the rapture, you will want to stop using the makeup and fixing, you will want to stop wearing those miniskirts and tights, but it will be too late. After the rapture, you will want to go extra mile, but it will be too late. After the rapture, you will want to do the restitution which you are refusing to do now, but it will be too late. You will want to stop telling lies, fornicating, masturbating, watching pornography or listen to worldly music, but it will be too late. My friend, after the rapture, you will want to care for the truth, but it will be too late. The money you are pursuing now that is making you to shun righteousness, you will not be able spend the money unless you collect the mark of the beast. The house you are building now that is making you to change figures at work, to steal and lie, to collect or give bribes, you will not be able to stay inside the house unless you collect the mark of the beast. The car, your cloths and all those things you are running after now will become useless afterall. The position you are taking as “do or die” now will become useless by the rule of anti-Christ. So why will you want to be fool? Are you ready and prepared for the rapture? You can become wise from here by repenting and totally rededicating your life to Jesus. Surrender all, be a different Christian of old, biblical standard in your family, your church, your place of work, your business, your school, everywhere. Let your primary purpose be to please God, your primary focus to make heaven and your primary expectation to be raptured. Even if you can’t remember when last your pastors preached about the Rapture and Second Coming of Jesus, you should remember Lot’s wife. MATTHEW 24:42-44 Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. Are you ready to surrender your life to Jesus? Are you ready to rededicate your life to Jesus? Are you ready to forsake all your sins and start a new life in Jesus? TODAY IS THE DAY OF YOUR SALVATION! SAY LORD JESUS, I HAVE REALIZED MYSELF AS A SINNER, SAVE ME! FORGIVE ALL MY SINS, AND GIVE ME A NEW SPIRIT IN YOU. HAVE MERCY UPON ME AND HELP ME TO SERVE YOU FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE IN JESUS NAME I PRAY AMEN. If you have prayed this prayer, I congratulate you! I would like to hear from you and to be praying with you. You can send message to me on Whatsapp +2347042000424.

FreshGreen:The statement there in bold is wrong. All of the brides slept(or died) and when the bridegroom was near and the call went out to those waiting for him, they all awoke - were raised/resurrected- meaning they all qualified for the rapture. A corresponding teaching to show that both good and evil folks who wait for the bridegroom will be raised is found written of in John 5 vs 19 - 29 where Jesus Christ explained that all those who hear His voice - those who belong to His flock will be raised from the dead to be judged - the sheep will be rewarded whereas the goats will be eternally damned - Matthew 25 vs 31 - 46 |

SHALOM! The Ancient Hebrew Y'sraelites were Commanded to teach their Children The Way of The LORD. He did not Command them to hire a Teacher, or let the Government do It for them. . DEUTERONOMY 6:1-9. NOW these are The Commandments, The Statutes, and The Judgments, Which The LORD your God Commanded to teach you, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go to possess It: 2. That thou mightest fear The LORD thy God, to keep all His Statutes and His Commandments, Which I Command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son's son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged. 3. Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do (It); that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey. 4. Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: 5. And thou shalt love The LORD thy God with all thine Heart, and with all thy Soul, and with all thy might. 6. And these Words, which I Command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: 7. And thou shalt teach Them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of Them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. 8. And thou shalt bind Them for a sign upon thine hand, and they shall be as frontlets between thine eyes. 9. And thou shalt write Them upon the posts of thy house, and on thy gates. TO LOVE GOD MEANS TO KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS: TO LOVE GOD OR ANYTHING WITH ALL ONE'S CAPACITY INCREASES THAT CAPACITY. . LEVITICUS 19:1-2. AND The LORD Spake unto Moses, Saying, 2. "Speak unto all The Congregation of The Children of Israel, and say unto them, 'YE SHALL BE HOLY: FOR I THE LORD YOUR GOD (AM) HOLY." . MATTHEW 13:1-23. THE same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side. 2. And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore. 3. And he Spake many things unto them in Parables, Saying, "Behold, a sower went forth to sow; 4. "And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up: 5. "Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth: 6. "And when the Sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away. 7. "And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them: 8. "But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. 9. "Who hath ears to hear, let him hear." 10. And the Disciples came, and said unto him, "Why speakest thou unto them in Parables?" 11. He answered and Said unto them, "Because it is given unto you to know The Mysteries of The Kingdom of Heaven, but to them it is not given. 12. "For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. 13. "Therefore Speak I to them in Parables: 'BECAUSE THEY SEEING SEE NOT; AND HEARING THEY HEAR NOT, NEITHER DO THEY UNDERSTAND.' 14. "And in them is fulfilled the Prophecy of Esaias, which saith, 'BY HEARING YE SHALL HEAR, AND SHALL NOT UNDERSTAND; AND SEEING YE SHALL SEE, AND SHALL NOT PERCEIVE: 15. 'FOR THIS PEOPLE'S HEART IS WAXED GROSS, AND THEIR EARS ARE DULL OF HEARING, AND THEIR EYES THEY HAVE CLOSED; LEST AT ANY TIME THEY SHOULD SEE WITH THEIR EYES AND HEAR WITH THEIR EARS, AND SHOULD UNDERSTAND WITH THEIR HEART, AND SHOULD BE CONVERTED, AND I SHOULD HEAL THEM.' 16. "But Blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. 17. "For verily I Say unto you, 'THAT MANY PROPHETS AND RIGHTEOUS MEN HAVE DESIRED TO SEE THOSE THINGS WHICH YE SEE, AND HAVE NOT SEEN THEM; AND TO HEAR THOSE THINGS WHICH YE HEAR, AND HAVE NOT HEARD THEM.' 18. "Hear ye therefore The Parable of the Sower. 19. 'WHEN ANY ONE HEARETH THE WORD OF THE KINGDOM, AND UNDERSTANDETH IT NOT, THEN COMETH THE WICKED ONE, AND CATCHETH AWAY THAT WHICH WAS SOWN IN HIS HEART. THIS IS HE WHICH RECEIVED SEED BY THE WAY SIDE. 20. 'BUT HE THAT RECEIVED THE SEED INTO STONY PLACES, THE SAME IS HE THAT HEARETH THE WORD, AND ANON WITH JOY RECEIVETH IT; 21. 'YET HATH HE NOT ROOT IN HIMSELF, BUT DURETH FOR A WHILE: FOR WHEN TRIBULATION OR PERSECUTION ARISETH BECAUSE OF THE WORD, BY AND BY HE IS OFFENDED. 22. 'HE ALSO THAT RECEIVED SEED AMONG THE THORNS IS HE THAT HEARETH THE WORD; AND THE CARE OF THIS WORLD, AND THE DECEITFULNESS OF RICHES, CHOKE THE WORD, AND HE BECOMETH UNFRUITFUL. 23. 'BUT HE THAT RECEIVED SEED INTO THE GOOD GROUND IS HE THAT HEARETH THE WORD, AND UNDERSTANDETH IT; WHICH ALSO BEARETH FRUIT, AND BRINGETH FORTH, SOME AN HUNDREDFOLD, SOME SIXTY, SOME THIRTY.' " Hebrew Y'sraelite Religious instruction was to take place between the ages of 13 through 20. They were to acquire THE SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD, manifesting these Powers. . THE TEN TALENTS OF POWER. (Matt. 25:1-30.) 1. TOTAL RECALL. 2. EXTRASENSORY PERCEPTION. 3. TELEKINESIS. 4. TELEPORTATION. 5. TRANSLATION. 6-10. EVERLASTING LIFE. IF THE CHILDREN FAILED TO ACQUIRE THE SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD, THE DAUGHTERS WERE TO BE MARRIED OFF, OR SOLD INTO SLAVERY. . EXODUS 21:1-11. "Now these are the Judgments Which thou shalt set before them. 2. "If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years He shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing. 3. "If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if He were married, then his wife shall go out with him. 4. "If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and He shall go out by himself. 5. "And if the servant shall plainly say, "I LOVE MY MASTER, MY WIFE, AND MY CHILDREN; I WILL NOT GO OUT FREE:" 6. "Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and He shall serve him for ever. 7. "And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do. 8. "If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing He hath dealt deceitfully with her. 9. "And if He have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters. 10. "If he take him another wife her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish. 11. "And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money." BUT THE BOYS WHO SO FAILED GOD WERE TO BE SUMMARILY EXECUTED. . DEUTERONOMY 21:18-23. 18. If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and (that), when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them: 19. Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the Elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place; 20. And they shall say unto the Elders of his city, "THIS OUR SON (IS) STUBBORN AND REBELLIOUS, HE WILL NOT OBEY OUR VOICE; (HE IS) A GLUTTON, AND A DRUNKARD." 21. And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put Evil away from among you; and all Israel shall hear, and fear. THE RELIGION OF YAHWEH GOD IS NOT A HOBBY- NOTHING CAN TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER THE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD! Children are supposed to learn that from their Parents. All the stupid questions one could possibly ask are supposed to be answered by one's parents, before one can attain adulthood. . DEUTERONOMY 30:19-20. 19. I call Heaven and Earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you Life and Death, Blessing and Cursing: therefore CHOOSE LIFE, That both thou and thy seed may live: 20. That thou mayest love The LORD thy God, And that thou mayest obey His Voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto Him: for He is thy Life, and the Length of thy days: That thou mayest dwell in the land which The LORD Sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give them. . 2nd CHRONICLES 16:9. 9. "For The Eyes of The LORD run to and fro throughout the whole Earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is perfect toward Him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.” . AMOS 3:3. 3. "Can two walk together, except they be agreed?" . ZECHARIAH 4:10. 10. For who hath despised The Day of Small Things? For they shall rejoice, and shall see the plummet in the hand of Zerubbabel with those seven; they are The Eyes of The LORD, Which run to and fro through the whole Earth. YOUNG ATHEISTS ARE TRULY DISGUSTING, THINKING THEMSELVES CLEVER BY BLASPHEMING GOD, WHOSE AWESOME MAJESTY SHOULD HAVE BEEN INSTILLED IN THEM BY PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE WITH THEIR OWN PARENTS, GROWING UP! oaroloye: THE WORDS OF GOD, IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM, ARE ALL LIVING BEINGS IN THEIR OWN RIGHT: THEY ARE SENTIENT, AND SELF-AWARE. They are FOOD for the Soul of any Living Thing. . DEUTERONOMY 8:1-6. ALL The Commandments Which I Command thee this day shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which The LORD Sware unto your Fathers. 2. And thou shalt remember all the Way which The LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep His Commandments, or no. 3. And He humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with Manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that He might make thee know that "MAN DOTH NOT LIVE BY BREAD ONLY BUT BY EVERY (WORD) THAT PROCEEDETH OUT OF THE MOUTH OF THE LORD DOTH MAN LIVE." 4. Thy raiment waxed not old upon thee, neither did thy foot swell, these forty years. 5. Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, "THAT, AS A MAN CHASTENETH HIS SON, SO THE LORD THY GOD CHASTENETH THEE."[i] 6. Therefore thou shalt keep The Commandments of The LORD thy God, to walk in His Ways, and to fear Him. ANY PROBLEM IN LIFE IS ALWAYS CAUSED BY A DEFICIENCY IN THE APPLICATION OF THE WORD OF GOD [i]ON RELEVANT LEVELS OF EXISTENCE. oaroloye: WITHOUT MEDITATION IN THE TORAH LAW OF GOD BY MOSES, GOOD SUCCESS IS IMPOSSIBLE. If there were any other route to GOOD SUCCESS, Yahweh God would have told Yeshua bar Nun, or some other one of His Prophets. As meditation on a Word of God- or anything else- continues, one's Awareness of It increases. The average person is less than 10% Conscious. There are 24 fields on which Awareness can be evaluated. EMOTION is just one of them. [See: SELF ANALYSIS, by L. Ron Hubbard.] A Level of Awareness is a level of AFFINITY, REALITY, COMMUNICATION, KNOWLEDGE, RESPONSIBILITY, CONTROL, WISDOM, UNDERSTANDING, or, in short, LIFE. When one reaches the 40th Awareness Level- THE SERENITY OF BEINGNESS, Time, which has been slowing down after one attained maximum Harmony with the MEST UNIVERSE at 22nd Level- GAMES- HALTS ENTIRELY. The importance of this is that, firstly, the MEMORY if this event is a CLONE DUPLICATE of the PERSONALITY OF GOD. This is a precious artifact, which must not be betrayed, nor neglected. Secondly, everything in the Universe that stops when you stop Time is more or less your Slave and Property. When you return to normal Space/Time, your POSTULATES can CONTROL them to do/not do whatever you want. Thirdly: when you have the 40th Level Awareness in the Complete Core Commandments of God, GOD LIVES IN YOU. With access to ALL of HIS KNOWLEDGE, and ALL of HIS POWER- at that Level of Beingness- of which there are eight. oaroloye: You do understand that what I am telling you is far beyond COLONIAL/SLAVEMASTERS CHRISTIANITY- such as let the eventual author of the "AMAZING GRACE" Hymn continue to trade Slaves, six years after his so-called "Conversion" to "Christianity?" Lord Yeshua never called his followers "wretches," but "The Salt of the Earth" and "The Light of The World." THE FIVE FOOLISH VIRGINS ARE THOSE WHO ONLY ATTAIN THE FIRST FIVE TALENTS, AND AS SUCH, ARE STILL MORTAL- BUT THE FIVE WISE VIRGINS ARE THOSE WHO ATTAIN EVERLASTING LIFE- WHICH IS LITERAL IMMORTALITY. Those are the Christians Lord Yeshua wants. The rest are those he merely tolerates. They are not great credits to his Teaching. [See: THE EAGLE'S GIFT, by Carlos Castaneda. THE FIRE FROM WITHIN, by Carlos Castaneda.] IF THE OYINBOS HAD BELIEVED THESE THINGS EXISTED AND WERE AVAILABLE, THEY WOULD NEVER HAVE LET US KNOW THE BIBLE EXISTED! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slave_bible |
