    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    Nope. Extremely off my friend. Like I said. The parable is worthy vs unworthy. By incorrectly making the foolish virgins unbelievers, You actually change God's word. Maybe you are unaware of the 2 kinds of believers Paul illustrated? Carnal vs spiritual?( wise vs foolish) Or maybe have no...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    Exactly. Glad you corrected it. Maybe you are unaware you inserted " never knew" ? Read the 7 letters to the seven churches. See what happens and how Jesus threatened BELIEVERS if they did not straighten up. Are you aware of several things that are CONDITIONAL with God? Maybe start there...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    Ok you are blending things in a blender and leaving things out. The rapture is the gathering of the bride. Paul said there are two types of christians. There are carnal Christians and there are spiritual Christians. It is the spiritual Christians that that are the bride. the bride consists...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    You do not understand salvation. The parable has ZERO TO DO with salvation. The parable is, "worthy vs unworthy". Jesus said," pray that you may be counted worthy to escape the things that are about to come upon the Earth and to stand before the son of God". When Jesus said that he was...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    I don't know why you change the parable. But somehow you DO NEED it changed. Just say you don't know what is going in. Don't misrepresent Gods word for some belief you have. Jesus never did say "I never knew you" You totally misrepresented the parable.

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    Yes I sorta agree with that. In the parable of the virgins the oil is one component of the parable. But that component has several parts. All the virgins had oil . every one of them had it ,but the wise took extra oil. so the only thing separating the wise and the foolish was the extra oil...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    One taken/left is 50% A few sentences later, Jesus again says 50% of the church is taken

    It is time to give Pretrib a decent burial

    Here is your shallow argument.( your nothingburger op of pure conjecture and grand canyon leaps into oblivion) Lol Nothing at all to see. Flat out laughable. Whatever you think you proved is just plain crazy.

    There it is. You are called out for what you do Your default response is always to deflect, and never admit your trolling mess

    It is time to give Pretrib a decent burial

    And yet you have been asked 100 times to post a postrib rapture verse and you CAN NOT DO IT. We, on the other hand, not only have verses affirming the pretrib rapture, they make a postrib rapture impossible. Not to mention that all of you have backed yourselves into a corner by saying there's...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    The one taken one left is not half earth's population. It is half the church. Nowhere is half of earth righteous/half wicked. So the one taken is the pretrib rapture There is no other scenario that fits. Further, the one taken dynamic is Before the Flood. Jesus placed the one taken setting...

    First fruits of them that slept(the first resurection)

    Jesus is the first fruits of the redeemed not the entire Earth Harvest after the millennium

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    That's like finding a verse where Mary is a virgin and then transposing that onto a parable about believers. ( the 10 virgin parable) Then making a connection saying the believers ( 10 virgins) are all female and unmarried because you found a verse that makes them that. Almost nothing in the...

    Why do the wise virgins not share their oil with the foolish virgins?

    Bingo We have a man that reads what is there, and can rest in the words of Jesus, not needing the story changed

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    Well said and I believe you're on the right track there. I would like to add a couple of things in that the oil indeed does represent the Holy Spirit and it does illuminate the Bible to us, because without the Holy Spirit we would have no understanding at all of the things of God, or his ways...

    The 5 wise and 5 foolish virgins

    "Buy" is not literally "buy". Lamps are not literally lamps. Virgins are not literally virgins per se in that virgins represent something. The parable has components in it. Most of the components are representative. But changing the components is usually done to help somebody's Doctrine along...

    It is time to give Pretrib a decent burial

    You do not have one single passage to prove your doctrine Where is it? All I see in your posts is your own opinions and loads of noise. Now I know why you and your buddies do that. Just make nothingburger list of brainless non contributing replies and copy paste to troll what you failed in...
