The ten virgins. This parable is a warning from the Lord Jesus about the need to always be alert to His return. The ten young women were virgins, that is, they had a pure faith, but only half were ready to meet the Bridegroom.

The five virgins who had prepared themselves were called “wise” and the five neglectful virgins were called “foolish.” The wise virgins took extra oil and , therefore, were ready to meet the Bridegroom.

This oil represents the Holy Spirit.

It is He Who keeps the flame of faith and communion with God Burning. Because the foolish and neglectful virgins did not take with them, their lamps went out.

These represent people who are in the church, are baptized in water, return their first fruits, give offerings, evangelize, but do not prioritize the Holy Spirit in their life. For this reason they will hear from the Lord the terrible statement: “Assuredly, I say to you, I do no know you”(v.12).

After all, which is the better condition: being a servant in the Kingdom of God or a slave to Pharaoh, who symbolizes the devil? Turing back is never worth it.

Zacchaeus led a group of tax collectors for Rome. The work was considered infamous by the Jews. Although his name meant “pure” or “fair,” Zacchaeus’ behavior did not fit with it, as the wealth of the collectors usually coma from extra collection of taxes or extortion.

Zacchaeus heard about the Lord Jesus and wanted to draw his own conclusions about Him.

His desire made him overcome not only the difficulties caused by his short stature but also the crowd that surrounded the Savior.

Zacchaeus recognized his unworthiness and sins and showed his humility as he quickly climbed into a tree to see the Lord. His attitude led him and his family to Salvation (v.9).
