Five are Foolish, Five Wise of the Ten Virgins

"The Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins" by Friedrich Wilhelm Schadow/Wikipedia

FRIDAY MORNING MANNA

Biblical Numerology: NUMBER FIVE Part I

 Five are Foolish, Five Wise of the Ten Virgins

 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

Some are wise, and some are otherwise.

-Old Proverb, Anon

 

Being a spiritual “virgin” does not automatically guarantee predestinated irreversibility that one somehow is rendered incapable of yielding to temptation and is above   foolishness all because of two stark realities: Satan is yet to launch his final campaign in desperate confederacy with all his agencies of evil spirits and wicked men against the faithful of the remnant church, we are still making choices, and, as free moral agents, are capable of changing our minds and altering our previous and present covenants and even firm convictions. This is at the

FRIDAY MORNING MANNA

Biblical Numerology: NUMBER FOUR & FORTY– Part X

Noah, Elijah, Jonah & John the Baptist’s Message: Repent!

QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

Errors, like straws, upon the surface flow;

He who would search for pearls, must dive below.

-JOHN DRYDEN, All For Love

The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus, “testing Him, asked that He should show them a sign from heaven.

FRIDAY MORNING MANNA   

Biblical Numerology: NUMBER FOUR & FORTY– Part IX

 God’s Love is for ‘Every Nation, Kindred, Tongue, and People’ for All Time, not Just on Valentine’s Day

 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

 

Knowledge is of two kinds. We know a subject of ourselves, or we know where we can find information upon it.

– Samuel Johnson, famous English lexicographer

Apostle Paul’s famous love chapter, 1 Corinthians 13 concludes on the 13th verse: “And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these three is love ”—not faith nor hope! This love, certainly never eros, not even the nobler philos, is alone tightly bundled with Biblicalfaith, which always “works by love” (Gal. 5: 6,)  “the hand that appropriates Christ’s merits and remedies for sin” (DA 175), and that hope  grounded in God’s word and promises (Rom. 15: 4; Titus 1: 2, etc.).

FRIDAY MORNING MANNA  

Biblical Numerology: NUMBER FOUR & FORTY– Part  IXX

 ‘What shall I do to inherit eternal life?’

QUOTE FOR THE WEEK:

“Lo, this only have I found, that God hath made them upright;

but they have sought out many inventions.”

– King Solomon, Ecclesiastes 7: 29, K.J.V.

This is the question those who are convicted by the Holy Spirit will ask, not the popular yet unbiblical question: “Are you saved?” Such questioners force the issue by even demanding, “It’s answerable by either a Yes or No.” The Creator of the heavens and the earth,
