The Bridegroom is Calling His Bride

The wise virgins of Christ are preparing to meet their Great Bridegroom! All others will have the door shut in their face. Read Matthew 25:1-13.

Just as a good, sane man (bridegroom) isn’t going to attempt to drag some unwilling bride into a “marriage” against her will, so the Son of God, the Bridegroom, isn’t going to bring an unwilling bride, person into the bridal chamber of the New Jerusalem. The testimony of Holy Scripture reveals that one must choose to engage in a real, an honest relationship with Christ to know and be with Him eternally. Jesus used the word “abide” (John 15). This is biblical imagery. See Matthew 25:1-13; Revelation 21-22. God will not force anyone to love and serve Him, and all who don’t shall be shut out of His eternal bridal chamber, such as were the 5 foolish virgins who began with Him, espoused to the Bridegroom (Christ), and yet chose not to remain close to Him, became lukewarm and forfeited that relationship.

With no exception, ALL wise virgin believers are in the Word daily – fueling, having a fabulous feeding frenzy! (Matthew 25:1-13).

No one but YOU can choose to love God for you. Those not serving Him, literally, daily, do not love Him (John 14:15; 1 John 2:3-5, etc.). According to Jesus’ teaching, the foolish virgins are not allowed to borrow oil from the wise virgin saints who truly love and serve the Bridegroom, Jesus. These Christ-rejecting apostates will be shut out of the eternal kingdom, damned to hell irrevocably. Read Matthew 25:1-13.

Only those who are in the Word – daily devouring, meditating upon, and walking… are going to be with Jesus. All others He’s saved are daily rejecting him – the 5 foolish virgins who shall be shut out of the eternal bridal chamber with Heaven’s KING (Matthew 25:1-13).

The “little flock,” that is, Christ’s remnant, feed on God’s Word daily. Their lamps are full (Luke 12:32; Matthew 25:1-13). All others whom Christ saved in the past, are like the foolish virgins whom the Bridegroom will shut out of His eternal kingdom. Is your lamp full?…. Hint: If you have to go to man, go to “church” to get “fed,” that’s clear evidence that you are not personally seeking the LORD which would include at the top of the list, the daily study of His Word (2 Timothy 2:15; 1 Peter 2:2; Jeremiah 15:16; Job 23:12, etc.).

Antoinette Y. writes:

“He truly loves us and desires to help us in every way but He requires total surrender and obedience. That’s what most will not do. We erroneously believe we can live life the way we see fit and that we’re fine that way but God told us in Revelation 3:17, the true state of our being and it’s horrific. We should be crying out; ‘Oh Lord Jesus we need you desperately.’ We do. We’re not OKAY in the state we’re in. Our lamps are not filled. Our robes are stained with sin. We’re not ready to greet the Bridegroom. We’re looking in a rose colored glass because we’ve been deceived, fooled and tricked by reprobate, heretical preachers who only want our few coins. But we’re not innocent. God told us to study. We don’t. Knowing and rightly dividing God’s Word checks heresy at the door and will strengthen our resolve so that we cannot be deceived or defeated. God help us.”

Many today can be seen saying things like “I am ready to die for Jesus!” Or “I will never take the mark of the beast.” Keep in mind how Peter swore he’d never deny Christ and yet did “thrice” – 3 times (Matthew 26). Jesus then told us the only way to overcome and not deny Him: “Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak” (Matthew 26:41). Only those who are truly crucified with Christ now – learning the daily cross – will be ready and full of the grace of God to never deny Jesus (Luke 12:8-9).

Eternal securists, OSASers represent spiritual whoredom – they want Jesus initially to save them but they don’t want to be bothered with a real, daily relationship with Him – on HIS stated terms – denying self, taking up the cross daily and following Him, etc. (Luke 9:23-24). They are spiritual whoremongers who want to use women for their own self-serving gratification without entering into a permanent, a lifelong monogamous marriage. They want to be engaged/espoused to Jesus for the benefit of missing hell but don’t want a relationship with Heaven’s Bridegroom. They are spiritually adulterous. God cannot be mocked so He sees right through their sham and will reject them like the foolish virgins whom Jesus says He will shut out of the eternal bridal chamber (Matthew 25:1-13). They are lukewarm, they refuse to repent, they refuse to make up their mind decisively, deliberately and obey the LORD and so will be soon spued, vomited, rejected (Revelation 3:15-16).

 “Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” Hebrews 13:4

Jesus’ Parable of the Wedding Feast

Matthew 22:1-14

“1  And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 
2  The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 
3  And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. 
4  Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. 
5  But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: 
6  And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. 
7  But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 
8  Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. 
9  Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. 
10  So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 
11  And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 
12  And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 
13  Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 
14  For many are called, but few are chosen.” 

Only the WISE virgins are going to be filled with Heaven’s virtue and able to make it to the bridal chamber of eternal glory with Heaven’s KING! (Matthew 25:1-13).  HOW does one get filled and stay filled?

“Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” Matthew 5:6

If you are not seeking God daily, perpetually, you are empty and falling away. But today is the first day of the rest of your life!

“Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually.” 1 Chronicles 16:11

Those not excited for Jesus to return simply love this fleeting world and are not ready to meet the KING!
