The ten virgins took their lamps and went to the place where the marriage feast would take place
They waited outside for the bridegroom to arrive.

Why did the parable say that Jesus is a bridegroom?
![Page 9: What are the parables? A parable is a short tale which Jesus used to make his lessons easy for us](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110304/5519e6c65503467a178b4967/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
(2 Corinthians 11:2)

The foolish and the wise virgins waited for the Bridegroom to arrive but He was delayed to the wedding party.
So the ten virgins fell asleep while they waited for the Bridegroom.
![Page 11: What are the parables? A parable is a short tale which Jesus used to make his lessons easy for us](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110304/5519e6c65503467a178b4967/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
All of the sudden, there was a cry ,
“Behold the Bridegroom!! Come out to meet Him.”!
![Page 12: What are the parables? A parable is a short tale which Jesus used to make his lessons easy for us](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110304/5519e6c65503467a178b4967/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
So all of the virgins quickly woke up and immediately got their lamps ready
The foolish virgins looked at their lamps and realized that they were going out!
![Page 13: What are the parables? A parable is a short tale which Jesus used to make his lessons easy for us](https://reader037.vdocuments.site/reader037/viewer/2022110304/5519e6c65503467a178b4967/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The five foolish virgins did not bring any oil for their lamps but the five wise ones brought flasks of oil with them.

So they asked the wise virgins,
“Give us some of your oil for our lamps are going out”!

The wise virgins responded and said, “Perhaps there will not be enough for us and for you. Go to the store instead and by yourselves
some oil”.

Unfortunately, while they went to buy the oil, the bridegroom came and all those who were ready went inside with
him and…
And what!?

The foolish virgins came later and yelled, “Lord! Lord! Open for
us”!

But the bridegroom replied and said, “Truly, I say to you, I do not
know you”.

What is we can learn from the Lord’s parable?
We do not know when the Lord is coming again
We should always be prepared because of this
We need to keep our spiritual lamps filled with the oil of good works and faith
