Matthew 25:2-4
25:2 "Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish.
25:3 "Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them,
25:4 "but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

Church of God is as ten virgins who can be divided into two groups as follows:
  1. Five wise virgins having the oil for supply so their lamps burn continually to welcome Jesus' second coming on the glorious clouds.
  2. Five foolish virgins having no oil for supply so they are left when Jesus comes a second time.
1 Corinthians 1:18
1:18 For the message of the cross is foolishnessto those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

Daily practice of being foolish is rejecting the cross, not being willing to suffer together with Jesus.

On the contrary, the wise Church takes up the crossas Jesus has given us an example.

Why do we have to take up the cross although we have already sacrificed something?
1 Peter 2:19
2:19 For this is commendable, if because of conscience toward God one endures grief, suffering wrongfully.

It is to make us live in the grace of the Lord.
The grace is more than all things because it saves and perfects us. There is vainness and perdition outside the grace.

Exodus 33:13-14
33:13 "Now therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider that this nation is Your people."
33:14 And He said, "
My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest."

All things will be vain without the grace although we have already been blessed.
Therefore, Moses asked God the grace.

The manifestation of the grace is God shows us His wayand He leads us.
In short, the manifestation of the grace is God shepherds usand only those who get the grace may be shepherded.

The Lord shepherds us through shepherding Word or the rod of shepherd, meaning as follows:
  1. The true teaching Word that God trusts to a pastor to preach faithfully and repetitively as spiritual food for the congregation so they can have spiritual growth up to spiritual maturity and perfection as the Lord is perfect.

  2. The good and merciful hand of God is stretched to lead us on His way.

    The steps of the good and merciful hand of God's being stretched to lead our lives are below:
God blesses you.
