White River Christian Church

Be Ready!

10 bridesmaids are invited and accept the invitation

We are told upfront there is a division

All 10 bridesmaids fall asleep

“From the rest of the world’s perspective the western Church is being lulled to sleep with a lullaby.”

“At midnight they were roused by the shout, ‘Look, the bridegroom is coming! Come out and meet him!”

5 bridesmaids are prepared and 5 are not

Being prepared is not transferable—it’s personal

How do you know you’re ready?

The 5 wise bridesmaids prepared for the bridegroom regardless of when he returned

“The five who were foolish didn’t take enough olive oil for their lamps, but the other five were wise enough to take along extra oil.”

Would you be prepared if Jesus’ Second Coming took place today?

Are you prepared if Jesus’ Second Coming is delayed?
