Are You Ready?
"Then the kingdom of heaven shall
be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the
bridegroom. (2) Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. (3)
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. (5) But while the
bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. (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. (13) "Watch therefore,
for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.” Matthew 25:1-13
