What does the '10 virgins' parable mean?

10 virgins. 5 lamps. Extra oil. And God? 🤨

This parable in Matthew 25 can be kind of confusing on a first read.

Here’s the heart of it: Jesus is teaching us about readiness.

The oil represents a real relationship with Him, faith that’s alive, personal, and real. 🌱

You can’t borrow it from someone else. You can’t fake it last minute.

Being “ready” means living in step with Jesus now, not waiting until later.

📖 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.” - Matthew 25:13

✨ Conviction isn’t condemnation! God’s mercy means it’s never too late to return to Him.

The invitation is open. 🤍
