Wise Virgins by Servant Marcia Carty on June 8, 2026

Are You Ready for the Bridegroom? The signs of the end times are no longer just future warnings; they are current events. As we see the world mirroring the chaotic state of Noah’s day, the call for believers to remain vigilant has never been louder. This teaching breaks down the spiritual necessity of staying prepared and living in anticipation of the Lord’s return. -- We are living in a time where evil thoughts and actions prevail, much like in the days of Noah, indicating we are approaching the return of the Son of Man. -- The parable of the ten virgins reveals the danger of spiritual drowsiness; the wise virgins were prepared with oil, while the foolish were caught off guard when the bridegroom arrived. -- Jesus’ encounter with the woman at the well illustrates that salvation is not limited by background or status; it is a gift of living water available to all who worship the Father in spirit and truth. -- Being "born again" is the prerequisite for entering the Kingdom of God, requiring a transformation of the spirit rather than an adherence to religious legalism. -- Believers are not appointed to wrath; we are called to be children of the light, wearing the breastplate of faith and love while keeping watch for the Lord.
