What does the oil represent?[1]
Why did the foolish virgin run short on oil?
Where or how or what do they do to get more of this oil? : The goal is the kingdom of God which requires the righteousness of God which you can only find through the tree of life which is the Holy Spirit as opposed to the tree of knowledge which can produce many other spirits often not so Holy nor righteous.
People go to denominational churches to get something. They identify that as fellowship.
What we need is fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Then when we gather we will have something to give and share(light from the oil in our lamp) rather than just be looking for something to get.
Virgins
The Bible talks about female goddesses, harlots, and whoredom which are often representing through metaphors instances of national adultery where Israel began to engage in the covetous practices like the cities of blood that made the people merchandise. Such system which were recorded in Babylon, Sumer, Egypt was called a snare and a trap because they constantly returning the masses to Babylon like systems and what has been called the bondage of Egypt.
The prophets, Proverbs, Peter, and Paul warn us that covetousness is idolatry.[2] And desiring the dainties of those rulers or praying for the benefits of those benefactors who exercise authority is form of fornication which makes the word of God to non effect.
Those who did not sign up for those tables of social welfare through the civil powers might be identified as virgins. Some virgins could be further identidied as foolish while others as wise.
Foolish Virgins
Of the ten virgins in Matthew 25 some trimmed their wicks and made sure they worked to have a supply of oil.[1] Oil provides light but oil was also for anointing and means the same as the word "Christ" and "Messiah". To increase oil is to increase the abiding of the love of the Holy Spirit.
That spirit comes when we gather in the name of Christ who came to serve[3] and sacrifice himself for others rather than be served.[4]
The foolish virgins may have kept themselves separate, pure, virgins from the World as Christ commanded but they squandered their oil using it up so there was not enough when they needed it.
Many people do the same with the oil of their life which God gives them. They take pride in being separate but they do not love one another, serve one another, feed His sheep and of course attend to the Weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith
The Foolish virgins might have taken back their responsibility for themselves by seeking to be separate from the world. But if they have also forsaken the gathering together for the purpose of Christ they are truly foolish. Jesus came into the world so that the peop,e of the world might be saved. If anyone fails to gather together so that at least their neighbor might be saved not just themselves.
In Acts we see the Early Church rightly dividing bread from house to house. They were only able to do so in their daily ministration because they were gathering in family groups of Tens.
Those local networks gathered in larger and larger networks so that men like Paul new where to go and who to help how to do so effeciently.
The early Christians formed a Faith Emergency Ministry Auxiliary through the Church appointed by Christ. These ministers were called out and appointed by Christ serve those who sought to follow the way of Christ.
Because they lived in the world and not of the world and made themselves separate they were able to institute Seven men to wait on the needs of the people through the tables of Christ.[5]
All this was possible because the followers of Christ were not a scattered flock and there was no place among them for the foolish virgins.[6]
Mendicant fools
They might be like monks and priests hiding in monasteries that think they are holy but they bear no fruit. Or they might be like the separatists who do not seek the world for its benefits. They might not look to the Benefactors of the World but they fail to become the Benefactors of Christ's appointed Kingdom of God who are servants based on love. They professed Christ with their lips but were not like His Church and are not "with us".
His Holy Church is a phrase describing what Christ appointed.
- Church is from the word called out assembly.
- Holy means separate,
- His is a reference to Christ who is a foreign prince who appointed a government to His ministers.
They were to run it without exercising authority but by keeping themselves separate from the World.
When he told them to be separate from the World, he used the word meaning constitutional order and system of government.
To be a minister of that government of God you cannot be a member of a benefit system run by men who exercise authority one over the other. Due to changes in their laws, ministers who have no numbered membership often are not allowed to get licenses or IDs from those governments. They also cannot take oaths that renounce all princes[7] because that would mean they must renounce Christ and they cannot do that and remain His faithful Ministers.
The Church is separate from the state and even separate from the people in its purposes as the ministers of Christ. Because of the abuses of some men who claimed to be the ministers of Christ, the separate role of His ministers is often rejected by Modern Christians.
Matthew 25:1 "Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. 5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. 7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. 9 But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut. 11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. 13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

The kingdom Matters
Jesus condemned[8] the Pharisees because the did not attend to the Weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith which include caring for the needs of our neighbors and the widows and orphans of our society through Pure Religion in matters of health, education, and welfare. We are NOT to provide for the needy of society through the Covetous Practices and the men who call themselves benefactors but who exercise authority one over the other like the socialists do.
The Way of Christ was like neither the way of the world of Rome nor the governments of the gentiles who depend on those fathers of the earth through force, fear and fealty who deliver the people back in bondage again like they were in Egypt. Christ's ministers and true Christians do not depend upon systems of social welfare that force the contributions of the people like the corban of the Pharisees which made the word of God to none effect. Many people have been deceived to go the way of Balaam and the Nicolaitan and out of The Way of Christ and have become workers of iniquity.
The Christian conflict with Rome in the first century Church appointed by Christ was because they would not apply to the fathers of the earth for their free bread but instead relied upon a voluntary network providing a daily ministration to the needy of society through Faith, Hope, and Charity by way of freewill offerings of the people, for the people, and by the people through the perfect law of liberty in Free Assemblies according to the ancient pattern of Tuns or Tens as He commanded.
The modern Christians are in need of repentance.
"Follow me!" —Jesus the Christ.
- One of the most important things to do is to become involved in a network of Charitable Practices. Everyone should want to join a Living Network of Love and Charity.
- If you think you have a calling to be a Minister of God or you might want to dedicate your life to Christ as an Ordained Minister of His Holy Church, contact us to start the process of discipleship and become the benefactors who exercise only love, NOT authority.[9]
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 Oil has often been considered a Symbol of the Holy Spirit. Oil flows like water but does not mix with water. The Hebrew word oil is normally Shem Mem Nun.
- ש SHIN Eternal Flame of Revelation bound to the coal Divine Essence."
- מ ם MEM Fountain of water a fountain of the Divine Wisdom [massive, overpower].
- נ ן NUN Heir to the Throne, Aramaic fish in the Mem (fish in flowing waters) or in the Hebrew the Nun may mean the kingdom. [fish moving... Activity life].
- The word Shem Mem Ayin is hear.
- ↑ Covetousness is idolatry
- Colossians 3:5 "Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:"
- Ephesians 5:5 "For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God."
- 1 Corinthians 5:10 "Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. 11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat."
- For it is written that the tables of dainties provided by rulers of the world are a snare because they cause the masses to bite one another through government systems of legal charity which are covetous practices which are a form of fornication or adultery where the people are devoured as merchandise, curse children and are "entangled again in the yoke of bondage" with the aid of the false religion of the whore who rides the beast.
- ↑ Heirs of service
- The hierarchy of the kingdom of God does not go up by steps nor exercise authority one over the other but come as he that serves:
- Matthew 20:27 "And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant: 28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many."
- Matthew 23:9 "And call no [man] your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. 10 Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, [even] Christ. 11 But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12 And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted."
