What does the Bible say about the Ten Virgins?

Answered in 1 source

The Ten Virgins parable illustrates the importance of possessing the grace of God in our hearts for true readiness for Christ's return.

The parable of the Ten Virgins in Matthew 25:1-13 teaches us about the distinction between those who are truly prepared for the return of Christ and those who are not. In the parable, five virgins are described as wise because they have oil in their lamps, symbolizing the grace of God in their hearts. The other five are foolish because they lack this oil. This lack of grace becomes evident when the bridegroom arrives, and they are unable to enter the wedding feast. The parable warns us to ensure that we have true grace in our hearts and are not merely satisfying outward religious appearances.
