3. 10 Virgins (Matthew 25)
Five were wise, five were foolish
They were all together
Had Lamps
They all waited “sleeping”
Heard the call to wake up
They all prepared their lamps for the wedding procession.
Wise had oil, the foolish had no oil
Bridegroom comes at night

4. The foolish tried to borrow what they couldn’t.
The foolish procrastinated preparation.
Once the wedding starts, the door is shut.
