The most popular viewpoint says that this parable speaks about the rapture of the church. We will make a case for another widely-held view that the parable is not about the rapture, and the virgins do not represent the bride of Christ. We consider the context of Matthew 24 and 25 and the audience to whom Jesus spoke. We also cross reference multiple Bible translations and looked into the original Greek to get a clearer picture of the message. We make a solid Biblical case that this parable is about ten bridesmaids, of which only five gain entrance and attend the marriage supper of the Lamb, Jesus, after the rapture. For more details, read the book to understand who the ten virgins are and the underlying message of the parable. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWe are in the end times; our world is changing quickly to line up with Bible prophecy. Jesus said the signs of his return would be like birth pangs, growing globally in intensity and frequency. We are seeing those signs happening weekly in real-time with wars, food shortages, pandemics, shutdowns, and natural disasters, all leading to global tyranny. There will be global persecution of Christians and Jews, and it's not a question of if, but when. There will also be a great falling away from Christ, and we can see it happening already. So-called churches are already becoming sexually immoral, politically woke, and in bed with the government. As more churches go apostate or get shut down, true believers may have to find or create small groups for fellowship. While we have time and freedom, we should study the scriptures, share the gospel, and watch for Jesus to return. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis book is part of a series of studies that all Christians should know and teach. We call it the \"toolbox series\" because these studies are tools to equip you to share your faith with others.
