I. “While the bridegroom tarried” vv. 15:5 The first and, strongest idea of this gection is that he, Jesus, the bridegroom, is coming &gain. Among those who wait are two classes, the wise and the foolish, though both were right intentioned. The lamps symbolize Christian profession, Luke 12:85; II Tim. 3:5, and the oil that which is essential to give us power whereby we maintain our profession, Acts 10:38; I John 2:20-27. The fool ish virgins were superficial and had not enough to maintain: their profes- sions. The wise virgins had enough ‘oil; so also may the belidver have the abiding spirit of Christ's presence wherein to maintain his Christian profession. ‘Waiting they all nodded (slumbered) and others evidently “lay down (slept). The wise virgins could afford to rest as they had all things ready. If they had been awake, how- ever, they might have seen and ren- dered aid to those who were in the sorry plight of not being ready. The tarrying was a test of the faith and patience of both the wise and the foolish as both awaited the “fulness of itime” when he should appear. The Great Question. 11. Behold the bridegroom cometh” vv. 6-13. All "are awakened by this midnight cry.

GURLEY’S A RY even to the very point of separation, The church of God individually and collectively, has yet to sense the dan- | _ ger to it and to others if its light for any reason be not continuous. This cry was a call to “meet him” and we ell need to ask ourselves, ready to meet him?” too late to make needful preparation to meet him. In their emergency they turned to the five wise ones but the wisdom of one cannot supply the de- ficiency or the foolishness of ,others (v. 9). There ig no Scripture to sup- port the teaching that one man’s merit is applicable to another except the merit of the God-man Jesus 8&8 ap- plied to ginful humanity.
