Gospel Verses ๐ฌโญ๏ธ
Matthew 25:1-13
1 - โAt that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins (bridesmaids) who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps, but no extra oil. 4 But the wise took flasks of oil along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was late in coming, so they began to be sleepy and fell asleep.
6 But at midnight came the cry, โHere is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.โ 7 Then all the maids rose and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, โGive us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.โ 9 But the others replied, โWe donโt have enough for all of us. Go to a shop and buy some for yourselves.โโ (We need light for our journey. We cannot get that light from others! It can only be light we ourselves see.)
10 โBut while they were gone to buy oil, the bridegroom came. Then those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.โ [The door that shuts is the one to the wedding - which symbolizes Jesusโ return, and โtheโ millennium age he brings with him. NoT the door to Life โforeverโ shut. Surely God is Greater than ThAt! ..But he let the message become veiled - with dark gossamer veils.. smoky darkness ..and mirrors.. gaslighting.. So itโs an intriguing quest, this seeking Truth.]
11 Later, when the other five returned, they stood outside, calling, โLord! Lord! Open the door for us!โ 12 And answering he said, โBut I donโt know you!โ
13 So you, too, must keep watch! For you do not know the day or hour of my arrival.โ (And the troubles that precede it. The gospel/Truth message is Jesus on the white horse [of Revelation/Apocalypse]. โThe first time heโ unavoidably โbrought a sWord and not Peaceโ [Rev.6:1-2]. The Second Time he brings Peace. Ultimately Armageddon [battle] is the worldโs response to the Good News Message. They have not yet been granted to see. This life โthrough the valley of the shadow of deathโ/imperfection is a living parable of the decomposing โappleโ and the worm that does noT quit. Without super NATURAL intervention that is. 1Tim.4:10 โGod is savior of all..โ

Paulโs Letter to Titus
~ Titus 1:10-16 ~
10 For there are many unruly [anypรณtaktos - not falling in line, from A - not and hupotassรณ - put in line] (not yet genuinely or full fledged โfollowing Jesusโ) who are empty talkers (amplified version says windbags๐ฏ) and decievers [phrenapรกtฤs from phrแธn - outlook from insight, and apatรกล - deceive โ properly, deceivers, leading others into their delusions, Ps.50:1, Rev.7:9,4.] especially those (in Paulโs day) who are of The Law (the ten, which preserve society, but is not the way that works and makes one fit for Godโs coming โkingdomโ of paradise and forever perfection, that way is โthrough faithโ inner transformation (by God, born again) to outer, not outward imposing to inward! Faith from start to finishโ, and true faith, hears, listens and does). 11 Whom (vain talkers) it is necessary to silence. They are turning whole families away from the truth by their false teaching. And they do it only for money. 12 Even one of their own, a prophet from Crete, has said, โCretans are always liars, vicious brutes, lazy gluttons.โ (Anthropos in a nutshell! lol.) 13 This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sternly, so that they will be sound in the faith, 14 not giving heed to myths and turning back from the faith and to the commandments people make. 15 To the pure, all things are pure (food, drink, holy/holidays - pure because used purely, moderately/not given to extremes). But to the corrupt and not actually believing, nothing is pure. Because both their mind and conscience are corrupted. (So you can have lots of โtalkโ and arguments/debates about so many things. They have that set of mind that they are okay, and others are not okay? A kind of โfollow moiโ attitude?) 16 They claim to know God, but by their deeds [รฉrgon - action/works that proceed from within] (thus also attitude?) they deny him, being abominable, unpersuaded and not fit for the good work. (Thatโs why the door to serving, called reigning, during the Lordโs long second advent, closes.)
