When i mean virgin am not referring to women/men who are humanly virgins,virgins in this story are Christians that are blemish free in the sight of our Heavenly Father . They were ten virgins five were foolish five were wise,but they all had lamps .The ten virgins were all Christians who believed in the coming of Jesus Christ ,because they were all waiting for the bridegroom probably there were all gorgeously dressed ,talking playing together as a lot of Christians do now in churches,outing,meetings .
If you have a lamp you should know that you will need extra oil because the oil might run dry,why did the five foolish ones not keep extra oil .it is because of distractions,some people are thinkers while some are talkative .Thinkers rule the world ,what do you spend your time doing? The wise ones probably thought among themselves that in case the bridegroom runs late because of an emergency what do we do?and came to the conclusion to buy extra oil .
What is the extra oil in your Life? As a christian the oil in your life is the word of God ,you have to read,meditate,memorize it .and obey the word of God without all these the oil will run dry.
And then there is a shout the bridegroom has returned, without seeing him all the virgins get ready for whom they have been waiting for , suddenly the foolish ones realize that they have been distracted for too long they have not be winning souls for Christ,giving,showing love then ask the wise ones for oil ,of course because the wise ones have been prepared they didn't need to panic but rather relaxed and said they best thing is to quickly go and back more oil before they came back the bridegroom had come for the prepared ones and shut the door .
