Being viewed in 189 Countries
1Now, this evening we will continue in our study of the chronology of End Time Events, and we will study the Ten Virgins found in Matthew 25:1-13.
2Now, I am sure all of you here this evening have read this parable and talked about it a hundred times or more, but what I would like to do this evening is to break it down for those who are new here, and for the brothers in other countries.
3MATTHEW 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
4Now I want you to notice a few things here. First: Jesus starts out by saying "the Kingdom of Heaven is likened unto" and then he tells us a parable. Now, I want you to notice that he says, it is "Likened" and the particular usage of this word "likened" means, to illustrate by comparisons. So he is not saying this is what it is going to take place, but rather He is saying, "in a similar way it will be like this". In other words He is using an illustration and that illustration is supposed to clue us into the Kingdom of Heaven, and we have already established in earlier parables that the Kingdom of Heaven is the Parousia Presence of the king with His people. The time when the Son of Man will set up His Kingdom.
5Second: He uses the number ten in reference to the number of Virgins. Now the number ten is one of the perfect numbers and it is significant because it is the first decade and represents the entire numerical system. The entire numerical system coming to a completion. 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and 10 starts is all over again, because the fist two numbers 0, and 1 are both used in this first decade showing there are no more numbers to be used. And the number ten signifies that the whole cycle is now complete.
6Now, The reason I want to show you the significance with this number ten that Jesus used here is because by telling us of ten virgins, He is telling us this is the end time, the end of the virgins. I can say this because the number ten is used throughout scripture to depict the end of a cycle, such as God completed the whole cycle of man and the antediluvians age in the days of Noah. Now, what is significant about this is that Noah was the tenth Generation of Sons of God on the earth. 1. Adam, 2. Seth, 3. Enos, 4. Cainan, 5. Mahalaleel, 6. Jared, 7. Enoch, 8. Methusaleh, 9. Lamech, and 10. Noah.
7Then after Noah, God started fresh again with man and ran another cycle until He came to Abraham, who is the tenth generation from Noah. And what is significant about that? Because God began a new relationship with man at that time and made a covenant to back up that relationship. So we see that God started over again, this time dealing with a Special covenant.
8Now, some might say, then why did He deal with twelve tribes? But notice after the wandering in the wilderness, two tribes were cut off from the promise and God was back to ten again.
9There are ten commandments, which contain all that is necessary and no more than is necessary both as to their number and order. We pay God our Tithes which is a tenth, and it represents the whole which is due God, and shows God's claim upon the whole. Then we see the ten plagues upon Egypt which represented the total complete circle of God's judgment upon that nation. Therefore we see the number ten represents the all conclusive, and refers to the order of numbers coming to its full cycle.
10Therefore in referring to the number ten concerning the virgins, Jesus is speaking of the conclusion of the church, and the time when the Groom comes to take out a portion of that number, Five to be exact, which number five represents "Grace".
11Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
12Third: I want you to see that Jesus is speaking of virgins. At this point we do not see any distinction between these virgins. They are all considered virgins which means they have not been with men, and have not been impregnated by mans dogmas and creeds. Now we know according to Mark 4: 14 and Luke 8:11 the seed that the planter sowed is the Word or God, and in 1 Peter 1:23 we are told that our new birth comes from an incorruptible seed, which is the word of God. And in all of these Scriptures we see that a seed is used in type for the Word of God which is called a seed because it contains life, to be more specific, the Word of God contains God-Life. Therefore, God has a Word which is His seed, and the Devil has a word which is also a seed. That's the Two sowers who went forth sowing. And since these women are called virgins, they are a type of the church who have not been tainted by mans creeds and dogmas.
156 Ten Virgins 60-1211M] Now, watch, they, both of them were virgins. Now, let me get this. Here, let's take these two right here. This is a virgin and this is a virgin. This was a foolish virgin and this was a wise virgin, but both of them are virgins. Now, if you'll take that name "virgin" and run it down, it means--it means "holy, clean, sanctified." The word "sanctify" comes from the word "sainted," which means "clean." Like the Hebrew word... Now, that's a Greek word; "sanctify" means "clean."
13So then, these ten virgins which are virgins in Word and deed, have not been corrupted by man's seed or man's doctrine.
14Fourth: I want you to notice that all ten have lamps. Now in Psalm 119:105 we read, "Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path," So we see that the ten virgins are Bible toting Virgins. Now remember, a woman in the Bible always types a church. Brother Branham taught us that.
15WHY WE ARE NOT A DENOMINATION? 58-0927 31 Now, a woman, in the Bible, represents "church." How many knows that? We are a Bride; the Church is a Bride.
1673 Conflict Between God and Satan 62-0531] Fire is the confirmation of the Light coming from the Word. The smart virgin, the wise virgin, had oil in her lamp, and she trimmed her lamp and lit it. Now, what is it? Now, God is the Word; the Oil is the Spirit; and the Fire is the Gospel Light on that Oil. Amen. God said so. See? That's the vessel. All right. The Oil is in the vessel, and the Fire burning it, shows that it's reflecting the Light of what the Word said. See? That's the reflection. Now, that wise virgin could do that; but that other, foolish virgin, was on the outside, had no Oil. And they couldn't reflect nothing but just their church and their denomination. See? Now, "You say the Word... You said the Word was Spirit?" Yes, sir. God said, "My word is Spirit." That's right. The true Bride must be unified by the Word. Now, remember, if she is a part of Christ, she has to be the Word of Christ. In order to be the Word of Christ, you have to be baptized into Christ. And when you're in Christ, you believe Christ and Christ is the Word.
17So we see that these ten virgins represent the church in it's purity with no man made creeds among them. They believe this Bible alone.
18Fifth: I want you to understand that all ten had only one thing in mind, and that was to meet the Bride Groom. Jesus speaks nothing of these ten having eyes for another man. These are not adulterous women. They are pure and have eyes only for the Groom.
19After Jesus speaks these initial words letting us know that he is dealing with a group of sanctified young ladies, He then tells us that there is a something that will ultimately bring forth a separation between this group of young ladies.
20Now, the sixth point we want to examine is that Jesus has now divided the church or this group of virgins or ladies into two groups. One that has an anointing of the Holy Spirit upon her vessel, and the other that has no anointing of the Spirit of God upon her, and thus her lamp is rather useless to her. Now, let me stop here and just say this. And six is the number of man, so we see here that this sixth point must deal with man and the nature of the man, and thus we find Jesus begin to divide the ten ladies into two groups of five.
21Which brings us to point number Seven: Which we find in verse 2 He tells us "And five of them were wise", and the word He used was a Greek word "Phronimos" which means wise but comes from a root word phren which more accurately is described as one having understanding, or an ability to perceive and make a right judgment.
22And we know according to Matthew 13: 10-17 and Mark 4: 10-12 that there is a certain Group of predestinated people who are ordained to know, to understand, and to perceive.
23And we know also by what Jesus told us in those two scriptures that no one outside of those ordained individuals is capable of knowing, and understanding the Word. If you want to know whether you are born again or not, you will know you are born again when the Word of God comes alive to you. Paul said, "Ephesians 2: 1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; and again in Colossians 2: 13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
24And that is your key, together with Him, for if His Life is living and abiding in you, then you are alive to His word and can see it as it comes to pass. Colossians 3:4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
25Audio letter to Lee Vayle 64-0500 P:2 Because if they only see it in the hour past, then there's no hope for the church. The church must see it in the present tense. So God sends His prophet to manifest, present tense of it. You see? And then, after it's over, then history is.
26Anointed ones at end time 65-0725M P:158 Said, "I AM sent me." I AM, not I was, or will be, I AM, present tense, the Word now. Not the Word that was, the Word that will come, the Word that's now. See? You get it?
27Anointed ones at end time 65-0725M P:168 "For it is impossible for those which were once enlightened and didn't move on with the Word as it come to pass..." They're dead, gone.
28Now this word "wise" that Jesus uses here is a Greek word Phronimos which means to be prudent or sensible in a practical sense. We see Him use the same word in Matthew 7:24-27 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them,( in other words, puts them into practice) I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded ( it's foundation ) was upon a rock.( and we know that this rock is Revelation, and Paul told us that no other foundation can be laid than what is already laid and that is Christ.)
29And so we read on, And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not,( does not put them into practice) shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: ( You'll notice here that he has no foundation) And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
In this parable we see that the Wise are those who not only hear but put into action what they hear. This is considered the prudent or sensible thing to do. And of course we see the foolish are those who also hear, but they do not do, and because they do not put into action what they hear, they are not considered wise or prudent, but foolish, because they could have taken action and saved their home, but they did not, and therefore their homes were destroyed. Oh, how many believers today are watching their own children going down the wrong road and are headed for destruction only because they did not apply the Token. Brother Branham said it won't do you any good unless you apply it, it must be applied!, and that means it has got to be put into use or it won't do you any good. Now the only difference between the Wise and Foolish is that One had their foundation built on The Revelation of Jesus Christ, while the other didn't. The same winds of doctrine blew down upon them both, they were both subjected to the same rain and wind and flooding which Isaiah 59: 19 warns us that "when the enemy comes in like a flood the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him". But the thing I want you to notice is that the same trials will come upon both the wise and foolish alike, but the wise won't falter during this testing time because they have a foundation built upon a rock which is revelation.
30But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. In other words, the Word was anointed to them which makes all the difference in the world, because to those whom the Word is anointed, it is a living Word, whereas to the others it is not a living Word, but a set of rules and regulations in which they must follow. In Isaiah 28: 9-13 NIV we see what happens to them who hear this Message but understand it not. Who is He trying to teach? To whom is He explaining His Message? To children weaned from their milk, to those just taken from the breast? For it is: Do and do, do and do, rule on rule, rule on rule; a little here, a little there. Very well then, with foreign lips and strange tongues God will speak to this people, to whom He said, "This is the resting place, let the weary rest" ; and "This is the place of repose"- but they would not listen. So then, the Word of the Lord to them will become: Do and do, do and do, rule on rule, rule on rule; as little here, and a little there- so then they will go and fall backward, be injured and snared and captured."
31And so we see the foolish virgin whom did not have the anointed Word of God when they realized how late it was they went to those who did understand the Midnight shout and they began to seek this anointing but it was too late. And so when they realized they did not have it they went into a works program and tried everything they could to work themselves up into a condition of anointing but it was to no avail. So let's read on and see what happens to them.
32 "And five of them were wise" and point number Eight: "five of these ladies were foolish".
33Now, in order to understand this, Jesus tells us in the next verse why the five were foolish.
343 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: Now, here is the scene He is building up in our minds. These ten virgins, all of them are on their way to meet the Bride Groom with lamps in hand, but five of them have no oil in their lamps to keep the lamps lit. Thus the lamps or the Word of God has become useless to them. Now, the significance of this is that the lamp is used to light the path before you so you don't loose your way. But it's got to be lit or it becomes of no use to you, just a bunch of extra weight which represents extra burden to carry which is legalism.
35Now, in the same manner as the lamp without oil, if the Word of God is not lit up in our heart it will do you no good. And so we see these Bible toting young ladies out in the dark with no light. They are carrying a lamp, but apparently they do not know how to use it, or what it is for? Otherwise they would have made sure it had oil in it. And how many people profess to have the Message, and yet because they have no oil, they do not know how to utilize this great Lamp of God to us. And thus they still walk in darkness and the lamp, or Message does them no good, for they do not know how to use it to see clearly., their way to the Bride Groom.
36And because they do not know how to rightfully divide the Word of Truth what light they did have soon goes out and they walk in total darkness no different than the rest of the world. And so we see this pathetic scene take place where we have ten women, These are good women, they are ladies, they are virgins, not sitting in denominations. They are untouched, virgins.
37Now, point number Nine: we pick up at 25:4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. Notice the significance of the words Jesus says and how he says it. The wise took oil in their vessels. That means that they had a vessel that was separate from the Lamp. Now, the vessel represents their person. The Apostle Paul told us in I THESSALONIANS 4:3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: 4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor.
38 In other words, we should know how to keep our vessel sanctified. And the vessel represent your body, your person. And again we read in ACTS 9:15 when God spoke to Ananias about Paul, But the Lord said unto him, (God is speaking to Ananias here,) Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:
39So we see that the five wise took oil in their vessel and we know that oil represents the Holy Spirit or the anointing of God. I SAMUEL 16:13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward.
40Now, let me show you further that this oil represents not only the Holy Spirit in the believer, but an ability given to the believer by the Holy spirit to know and to understand the Word of God, because the anointing is for that very purpose of shining forth the light of God just as the oil in the lamp is to shine forth light from the lamp.
41In I JOHN 2:20 we read, But ye have an unction (that means anointing,) from the Holy One, and ye know all things. Then John makes it clear when he says, 21 I have not written unto you because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and that no lie is of the truth. And notice how specific John becomes concerning what this anointing will do for you, and also what a lack of it will not do. He says, 22 Who is a liar? but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ. (is the Anointed,) then notice how John becomes very, very specific as to what that lie is. He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. And remember, the word and is a conjunction linking two things together. 2 John 9 Whosoever transgresseth (that means to go beyond the limits), and abideth not (and remains not) in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
42So John is very specific about what that antichrist spirit is. Then John makes it more clear what He is driving at, when he says, 1 John 2:23 Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: But he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. You see because if you deny that Jesus is the Son of God, then you make Him God the Son, and now you have two Gods. And further if you deny that He is the Son of God, then how can God be a Father? A Father has at least one child or he isn't a father. And without a Son God is just God, but He could not be a Father. Then to say Jesus is his own Father denies that He is a son, and thus denies that God is a Father and you see where it leads to? Confusion!
43And John says, if you do not have the son you do not have the Father, but if you acknowledge the son then you by definition also acknowledge the Father. Notice also that he says, Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (and that word hath is the Greek word echo, and thus you can not echo or reflect the Father if He doesn't have children.) But he that acknowledgeth the Son hath (echoes or reflects the son, reflects) the Father also. Oh how beautiful the Scriptures come together.
44ROMANS 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. And that word conformed is not the same word that was used when he told us not to be conformed to this world.
45And if we are to be conformed to the image of His first born son, then what image is that?
46PHILIPPIANS 3:20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ: 21 Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself. So we shall have a glorified body, just like the eldest brother received His glorified body.
47Now, we will have to move along because this is taking too much time. Matthew 25:5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. Now, we could take some time on this but we know that during the church ages the church was in a sort of slumber, during those dark ages, when the Word of God lay dormant. But notice the next verse and how specific the time is that Jesus is bringing out in this parable. He is telling us that it is almost the end of the day, which implies the end of time. It is almost midnight…
48Now, we have finished nine points up to this time, and we are approaching point number ten. And what does TEN represent? It represents the whole cycle is now complete. And what do we see here as point number ten?
49Ten: 6 And at midnight there was a cry made,(and at the very end of the day, when there is no more time left it is midnight… and don't we see that same implication in Revelations 10:7 when time shall be no more?)
50Now the next point is number Eleven which 1+1 equals two, is the same number Brother Branham was born under. He is a number two by birth. 4-6-1909 equals 4+6+1 and you cancel out the (9, 0 and 9) and he is an eleven which is also is a two because the nines cancel. And notice this midnight cry which is made, Now I want you to notice, they all heard the midnight cry, right? So it had to be pretty loud, right? And this word cry here means to speak very loud or with a loud voice, which is called a shout right? So we can say that all the virgins both wise and foolish heard this Midnight Shout? And what was the Shout? "Behold," which means "Look and See", The Bridegroom cometh, He's on His way… And who was standing there knocking at the door? "Behold I stand at the door and knock," That's Revelation chapter 3, and "Behold the Judge standeth at the door." That's James chapter 5. We see the same thing in Revelations Chapter 10: where the same root word is used to express this great cry in verse 3. In verse 1 The Lord Himself comes down and in verse 3 He cried with a loud voice, (which is a shout) as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. And we know the Loud voice like a lion represents a prophetic voice, or that of a prophet. God speaking through His Prophet as we see in AMOS 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. 8 The lion hath roared, Not squeaked, but roared,) who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy? Look the prophet couldn't even help it.
51ANOINTED ONES AT END TIME 65-0725M 269 Now, I want you to know this is sure. And you that listen to this tape, you might have thought today that I was trying to say that about myself, being that I was packing this Message. I have no more to do with it than nothing, no more than just a voice. And my voice, even against my better judgment... I wanted to be a trapper. But it's the will of my Father that I declare to do, and determined to do. I wasn't the One that appeared down on the river; I was only standing there when He appeared. I'm not the One that performs these things and foretells these things that happens as perfect as they are; I'm only one that's near when He does it. I was only a voice that He used to say it. It wasn't what I knew; it's what I just surrendered myself to, that He spoke through. It isn't me. It wasn't the seventh angel, oh, no; it was a manifestation of the Son of man. It wasn't the angel, his Message; it was the mystery that God unfolded. It's not a man; it's God. The angel was not the Son of man; he was a messenger from the Son of man. The Son of man is Christ. He's the One that you're feeding on. You're not feeding on a man. A man, his words will fail, but you're feeding on the unfailing Body-Word of the Son of man.
52And it was no different with John the Baptist. He said those very same words in describing what took place in his ministry. Didn't John say, "I'm just a voice of one crying in the wilderness"… So we have the same yesterday, today, and forever. God changes not. You don't look at the vessel, you look at God using that vessel. You don't worship that vessel. That vessel isn't God, it's just a mask that God chose to work through and express Himself through. You don't worship the burning bush, you don't worship the pillar of fir or the cloud, or the rock that followed them in the wilderness and yet those things were Christ? Not the man, but they were anointed. Christ means anointing. And God anointed those things with His presence but that doesn't make those things God, no more than the earth is God, and yet God came down with His presence and He anointed the earth with His Presence. And the trees of the field shall clap their hands, etc.
53Anyway, not to get off our subject but notice what this midnight shout was.
54…Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Now, notice what that shout was…Not, behold the Bride Groom is here, but that word cometh is the word erchomai which means "yet to come", not Parousia which means present already. No, that midnight cry is speaking of the Coming of the Bride Groom, Then if it speaks of the coming of the Bride Groom, then the Bride Groom is not here yet at this time. Then who gave the midnight cry? Certainly it is not the Bride Groom, but another declaring his soon arrival. And when the king called forth a wedding for His Son, notice He is the One who called forth the wedding, it was Him calling forth, it was Him, the king that gave forth the Shout.
55And brother Branham said in his sermon, DIVINE HEALING 54-1219M 283 I'm so happy today to know that God is in our midst; the shout of the King is here,…
WAY OF A TRUE PROPHET 63-0119 E-66 There was a shout of the king in the camp. God was with them
57HEAR YE HIM 57-0125 E-78 O God, how we love You. How we worship You. You are in our midst. The shout of the King is here. The great Jehovah
58UNITED UNDER ONE HEAD 58-0326 E-50 I believe that His Presence is here. The King, there's a shout of the King.
59TIME OF DECISION 59-0418 E-44 But what did he fail to see? He failed to hear the shout of the King in the camp down there. They had a smitten rock. They had a Pillar of Fire, a supernatural sign. They failed to see that. That's what's the matter with the world today, they fail to see It.
60CONDEMNATION BY REPRESENTATION 60-1113 35-2 And we believe that there is to be a church in these last days, that will receive both former and latter rain. It'll be scattered throughout the world in this Laodicean Age. It'll be a church that's called back to the original faith in God. It'll be a church that'll have Jesus Christ walking in it, manifesting Himself; the shout of the King will be in it.
61Twelve: 6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom; come out to meet him.( now I know your King James version says, Behold the Bridegroom cometh, go out to meet Him, but this is a mis-translation. The original says, "Behold the Bridegroom, come out to meet Him). You see, the Message is always come out, not go out, for the one declaring the message is not inside with you, but is on the outside saying come out from among them and be ye separate saith who? Saith the Lord! So Who saying come out to meet my Son? The King. Of course . He is the one who has invited you to the wedding. He is the one who is preparing the great supper. He is the one on the outside calling you to come out and we see that in Revelations 3: 20, for it is the word that is calling us out, and God is the Word. Jesus told us in John 12:48 that the Word will Judge in the last days, then who is this Judge standing at the door in James 5: 9,It is God the Word.
62Notice in 2 Corinthians 6: 17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean [thing]; and I will receive you, 18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
63We see the same thing in Revelations 18:4 where God says, "Come out of her my people that ye be not partakers of her plagues. He is the same and changes not. God said, I am that I am, and if he changes not, then every time we see the Scripture proclaim come out we know that it is the Father calling for us to come, just as we saw the Father King calling for the people to come to the wedding of the Bridegroom.
64So then after this great cry goes forth, this shout of the King, then notice in the next verse, Point number Thirteen. Now, 13 is the number of the United states, and we do not have time to go into that but I have already preached on that, so we will skip that part but notice, we read in 25:7 Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. Now notice that this is verse seven. and its Matthew 25 which is 2+5 equals 7, so we have a double confirmation of 7's which is completion here. And in the seventh age it's lamp trimming time.
65Now, remember the lamp is the Word of God. So what does it mean to trim the lamp? Notice when they all began to trim their lamps, which I believe they began to search the Word for an understanding of what this Midnight Shout was all about, it is then that the real difference between them comes into view. The Wise, were made ready, while the foolish realized they did not have the oil which we know always in scripture, oil represents the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit. And this is the difference between them. And this is also the reason why the Wise knew who it was at the door and the Foolish did not. I think this also speaks of the Wise having an understanding of the Headstone returning with shoutings of Grace, Grace unto it. Because, the foolish were not aware of this grace. Apparently when they searched the Word, they saw something in it that they had to do for themselves, while the Wise in trimming their lamps, saw the Scriptures as saying that "He will make ready a prepared people", and also, "He which began the work in you will perform it" and other scriptures letting us know how we should approach Him." And so the Wise just went out to Him while the foolish began their works efforts.
668 And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. Notice their lamps have gone out. That means they were once lit. That means there wicks were at one time in contact with the oil. But no longer, for the oil had run out. The anointing had left. The wick must be in contact with the oil, (Spirit), and then it is able to be lit and bring forth light. But oh, message believers, you that will hear this sermon, and you that will read it, Paul said, "you did run well, what has hindered you."
67And so verse 9, the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And we have more people selling the message than at any other time, and you can get it so cheap that if you don't have a full library of the message it shows that you have placed other things before the Word of God.
6810 And while they went to buy, (Notice the last thing that happens here before the Bride Groom comes is they, the foolish virgin got caught up in a buying spree. And what is all the clamor about today right in this message? Is it not over who has a right to sell the Message? Can't you see where we are at?) 10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
E-35 Sudden Secret Going Away of the Church 58-1012 They were ready to go meet Him, but some of them let their oil go out. Don't let that be your case. Keep oil in your lamp. Oil is the Spirit, the Holy Spirit. Never let it drain from you. When you feel your love dying away, your sincerity to Christ, and to the cause, quickly go to Him Who has the Fountain of Oil and buy for yourself a filling of the Holy Spirit.
69LAMB'S BOOK OF LIFE 56-0603 E-28 028 Noah was a type that was carried over like the sleeping virgin. But Enoch was translated just before the tribulation struck. And Enoch was took up, and was found not, because God took him: the type of the going forth of the going forth of the church. And Noah watched him. When he seen Enoch go, he knew it was time to enter the ark, for to be carried through the tribulation. The Bible said there was ten virgins went out to meet the bridegroom, and five were wise; five were foolish. And they were all virgins, every one of them. But five was wise. And they had oil in their lamp. And they went out to meet the bridegroom. And the bridegroom came. And the ones that had oil, went in. See, the translation, going with the Bridegroom. But those who were left behind, they come and wanted in too just like those who come and knocked on the door of the ark. "Noah, let us in." But God closed the door. No, friend of mine, one of these days God's going to give you your final call, then the door's going to be closed between mercy, and judgment. Don't be left out. Get in now while you can. Don't pay no attention to what the world says. Get into Christ, for those that are in Christ will God bring with Him. See?
70Now, I want you to notice something here. While the others who were considered foolish went out looking to try and find some anointing in order to understand this Midnight Shout, the others went into the Marriage in the Presence of the Bridegroom as it says, They went in with Him.) 11 Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. Afterwards, the others realized who it was that was knocking and who it was that was Present, but it was too late then, they missed Him because they had not been ready. The Word had not been anointed to them and they missed the Revelation of Jesus Christ. They were left behind for the tribulation period.) 12 But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. This word know here is a Greek word which means to fully know but in the context that Jesus is using it, it would suggest that He's saying, "I never really had a consummate relationship with you" and therefore, (as Doctor Hoyer from Wheaton Illinois who was at one time considered the greatest U.S. student of the Greek said, "this should be translated as " I used to know you as my wife, but I do not know you as my wife any longer. "In other words, we never consummated our relationship together and therefore I really never knew you in a conjugal sense of the word.
Finally we here Jesus speak forth words of warning concerning this parable and what it means in verse 13 Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. And of course this word watch means to ever be keeping a vigilant eye, or spiritual alertness for the Parousia of the Son of Man.
And remember, if this Midnight Cry or Shout is still a secret to you then it has not been revealed to you, and as long as it has not been revealed to you then it does not yet belong to you. For we read in Deuteronomy 29:29 The secret [things belong] unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law".
71Notice, Brother Branham said, "when you have been truly baptized by the Holy Spirit, then the Message is no longer a mystery to you, it is no longer a secret to you, you know it!" "It's all lit up before you" I don't think you'll need to have someone take you aside and tell you about tithing, or the need to be in church, you'll just automatically be there when those doors open, because it's real to you, and because you Love Him so much that you can't get enough of Him. And because it is real, you'll hunger and thirst for as much of Him as you can get. You won't need someone to hold your hand and baby you through, because you're ready to Live, or Die, Sink or drown, or whatever is necessary for His Word's sake. You see, that is what the New Birth is all about. It's not just coming to a fellowship. It's about being born again as a new individual, a new Creation in Christ Jesus. Old things are done away and all things have become new. You don't live for your job, you don't live for your vacation, you don't live for your new car like the rest of the world does. You live because Christ lives in you. You have no taste buds for the things of the world. I'm not saying that some of those things aren't nice to have, but they can't really satisfy. And there is only one thing that can satisfy, and that is to know Him.
And what is the evidence that He has filled you with His Spirit, that you have been baptized in the Spirit of the Living God? , "when you have been truly baptized by the Holy Spirit, then the Message is no longer a mystery to you, it is no longer a secret to you, you know it!" "It's all lit up before you". And if it is no longer a mystery to you, then it has been revealed to you. And if revealed to you then it belongs to you. You are a possessor of it as we read in Deuteronomy 29:29 The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those [things which are] revealed [belong] unto us and to our children for ever, that [we] may do all the words of this law".
72Let's just bow our hearts in prayer. Dear Father we truly believe all that you have revealed to us in this day by your holy Spirit working through your prophet, but we have al come short of the Glory of God. Help us Lord to lay aside our own thoughts and our own desires, and purge us with hyssop, and cleanse us by the washing of water by the Word and heal us and we shall be healed. Bless us and we shall be blessed. Cleanse us and we shall be cleansed, and fill us and we shall be filled. For these things we ask in the name of your obedient son, or Lord Jesus Christ.
731032-Q-306 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 64-0823E 306. After the Bride is raptured will any of the foolish virgin be saved or will they all be lost? No. See, everything will be finished for the Gentile church when the Bride is taken from the earth. The Spirit of God leaves the earth: "He that's filthy is filthy still; he that's righteous is righteous still; he that's holy is holy still." In other words the sanctuary becomes smoky, where the Attorney stands to plead the case. Christ leaves the sanctuary; His day of mediatorial is over. The rapture comes; He leaves from the sanctuary, goes forth and takes the Book of Redemption, and claims everything He redeemed. There's no more mediatorial work. How many understands that? I got it on one of the Seals--or one of the... Yeah, the Seals, I believe it was, that Christ comes forth to claim His mediatorial work., just a minute. "Will the foolish virgin be saved." No. Whatever happens, happens now. After that time she's in the state... Now, she will have to go through the tribulation period. And the reason of it is, is because she has rejected the Atonement in Its fullness. She is a believer, a professed believer, but she will have to go through the tribulation period.

Why Skips are a Good Waste Management Solution
Daily activity will always result in the creation of solid waste. There are different types of solid waste you have to dispose of, and you need a waste management solution that works whether you are home or not. A residential skip bin hire might be the best option if you consider the following factors;
Ease of garbage disposal
Once you have dumped trash into the skip, the garbage collection company will do the rest. The waste will be collected on specific collection days and a clean empty skip left in this place.
To get a skip for hire is pretty easy, all you need to do is identify the skip you want, get a quote and a skip is delivered to your home.
A skip offers a very neat option for garbage disposal. There are no trash bags scattered around, and the smaller skips commonly used for residences can come with lids.
You also have the freedom of where to place the skip on your property and maintain a well arranged look.
Environment friendly
Since some of the garbage in a skip will be recycled, skips offer an environment-friendly way of rubbish disposal. Also, a skip is durable as opposed to trash bags which you can use a maximum number of times.
There are many types of skips for different types of waste so that you can easily dispose of particular types of waste. Also, skips come in various sizes; your requirements will determine the right skip for you.
When you need the skip collected on a specific day, you can make arrangements. So you do not need to cancel your weekend party because you don't know how you will handle the extra waste. You can get a skip on Friday and have it taken away on Sunday.
Cost effective
The cost of a skip is not high, all you need to do is specify the right size and type of skip that you need to the skip bin hire company, and you can get a quote.
Getting a skip
A skip will be beneficial if you choose and use well. To fully enjoy the benefits of a skip here are some tips.
Know the right size
It is a fact that there are different sized skip bins. There are small bins with wheels that you can push, and there are large bins that are lifted by cranes.
To choose the right size, you need to know how many trash bags you fill in a week and estimate a skip that can take slightly more than that.
A key piece of information that you also want to find out is how often in a week the skip is collected. You can calculate the amount of rubbish generated in the number of days to the pickup and the skip hire company will help you choose the right size based on that calculation.
Choose the right type of bin
All skip bin companies specify the type of garbage that you are allowed to put in different kinds of skips. Make sure you read their guide on skip bin types and the waste they can hold.
Any time you put the wrong type of waste in a container, the disposal is harder for the bin hire company, and it will penalize you for that with a fine. Also be aware of the weight limitation of the skip and adhere to it.
Use the bin wisely
You probably don't like lingering around the skip bin to pack the rubbish in a way that uses space well, so it is better if you dump the waste systematically. It is possible for the skip to hold twice as much waste if you use the space wisely.
One way to reduce the volume of your rubbish is to fold boxes. You can also consider getting a baler or a compactor if the amount of trash that you can compact is high.
Plan ahead
Whenever you have particular types of waste to dispose of consider hiring a special skip for instance if you are removing asbestos from your house.
Also when you are planning a thorough cleaning and declutter of your house, hire an extra skip in advance so that you can accomplish the cleaning without a hitch. If you fill the skip you have with more waste than it is meant for, you could incur a fine.

Tips on Bringing Old Furniture Up to Date
Bringing furniture up to date without spending a lot of money is possible. Small changes can make a big impact. The couch is an expensive piece of furniture that often needs to be replaced because it is so frequently used. Here are some tips and advice from The Foam Factory to help anyone restore older furniture to its former glory.
If your seating is less than comfortable, replace the worn-out padding with new cushion filling to bring it back to the desired thickness. Not just for appearances, good support helps your back and makes couches more comfortable. Many seat covers have a zipper, discretely hidden by a piece of material, which makes replacing filler a breeze.
To update to a trendy style, find what trend fits you. This year, the color of emerald green has been a huge seller. Update new cushions to an emerald green and add some gold accents throughout the room to pair it with. Refinishing wood items and adding colors, textures and materials is the new trend. Restoration, and changing the look of older furniture, is very trendy at the moment.
Changing your sofa cushions can be one of the easiest and quickest ways to update. Check decorating magazines for ideas and inspiration. Save money by changing material or designs on seats, repaint old items with new trendy colors and change design patterns. Now a whole room is updated with the money saved from an unnecessary purchase. Pick a color and use that to contrast colors or go monotone with color. The most important thing about updating is finding what you love and what makes you happy. Bring the furniture you already have back to life, while making that house a home.

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
Hello, I have just started to try out xsd2code.
I have a simple xml and use VS 2010 to generated an xsd
And then use xsd2code to generate the VB classes
All OK and compiles.
When I try to Deserialize the original xml is gives an error thus:
Inconsistent sequencing: if used on one of the class's members, the 'Order' property is required on all particle-like members, please explicitly set 'Order' using XmlElement, XmlAnyElement or XmlArray custom attribute on class member
The code below is where it throws the error.
The code below is where it throws the error.
Dim serializer = New XmlSerializer(GetType(Hotel))
serializer = New XmlSerializer(GetType(Hotel))
<System.Xml.Serialization.XmlArrayAttribute(Order:=1), _ System.Xml.Serialization.XmlArrayItemAttribute("Room", IsNullable:=False)> _ Public Property Rooms() As ObservableCollection(Of HotelRoom)
It seems that if I remove the "Order" line above things work OK ?
Note: I have tried GenerateXmlAttributes True/False but still the same.
Any ideas ?
Thanks Jim
I am having the exact same issue but I cannot understand why it is not generating the Order attribute.
It should add the Order atribute to all properties.
I had the same problem today.
But I had a large XSD file, so adding the attributes would take a long time.
The solutions to this problem is to set the property "GenerateXmlAttributes" = true (in "Serialization") in the "XSD2Code class generator" dialog.
Have fun

All time great science fiction writer Sir Arthur C Clarke, author of more than 100 books, has died today in Sri Lanka at the age of 90 after a cardio-respiratory attack. Born in 1917 in England, Arthur C Clarke had lived in Sri Lanka for more than half a century. He came to popular fame in 1968 when the short story The Sentinel was made into the film 2001: A Space Odyssey by director Stanley Kubrick. However he made his first mark on this world during World War II when he published a visionary paper detailing the conditions of placing a satellite in geostationary orbit. He was paid about 20 dollars for the theory that launched a multi billion dollar industry.
Clarke always wanted to be allowed to make three wishes. Peace in Sri Lanka, evidence of extra-terrestrial life and for the world to adopt cleaner forms of energy. Recently at his 90th birthday, confined to a wheelchair due to the effects of childhood polio, Clarke said "I have no regrets and no more personal ambitions".
Other notable books included:
- Childhood's End
- Rendezvous With Rama
- Songs of Distant Earth
- Against the Fall of Night
- The Fountains of Paradise
- City and Stars
- Expedition to Earth
- Islands in the Sky
- Nine Billion Names of God
- Earthlight
- Against Infinity
- A Fall of Moondust
He will be sorely missed!

Tigers face pressure to win title
In October, the Yankees are accustomed to looking across the field at a team with less urgency to win than themselves.
That's not the case in this year's American League Championship Series.
The Yankees' Game 1 lineup had 14 World Series rings among the 10 players. Another title would do little to change the baseball legacies of Derek Jeter, Andy Pettitte and Alex Rodriguez. But on the same night, the Detroit Tigers had only two world champions among their starters — Miguel Cabrera ('03 Marlins, as a rookie) and Gerald Laird ('11 Cardinals, as a backup catcher).
Mike Ilitch has owned the Tigers for more than 20 years, and this is the club's third postseason appearance during his stewardship. Ilitch, 83, wants desperately to win a World Series to go along with his four Stanley Cups as owner of the Detroit Red Wings. That unrelenting desire is why he unexpectedly signed Prince Fielder to a nine-year, $214 million contract last offseason, raising the club payroll to $140 million when including deferred money.
In Fielder, Cabrera and ace pitcher Justin Verlander, the Tigers may have three of the top 10 players in baseball. All are under 30 years of age.
The Tigers might have the best four-man rotation left in the postseason: Verlander, who is 29, followed by Max Scherzer, Doug Fister, and Anibal Sanchez, all 28. Sanchez, who shut out the Yankees over seven innings in Sunday's Game 2 victory, will be a free agent after this season.
Leadoff man Austin Jackson, arguably the top defensive center fielder in baseball, is an All-Star-caliber player at the beginning of his prime. Jim Leyland, the 67-year-old manager who may go to the Hall of Fame, doesn't have a contract for next year.
The Rangers, who outplayed the Tigers in last year's ALCS, were knocked out by the upstart Orioles in the wild-card round. The big-spending Red Sox and Angels whiffed on the postseason. The Rays might have been the one AL team with a clear pitching advantage over the Tigers, but they fell just shy of making the playoffs. The Yankees' lineup was having an abysmal postseason even before Jeter sustained a fractured left ankle.
For those internal and external reasons, this might be the Tigers' best chance to win it all with the core of Verlander, Cabrera and Fielder. They acknowledged as much with savvy midseason trades for Fister and Sanchez the last two Julys. As Al Avila, the team's assistant general manager, said recently of the team's roster composition: "When else are we going to go for it?"
Of the team's superstars, Verlander is the closest to free agency. (After this season, he has two years and $40 million left on his contract with the Tigers.) Perhaps that is why he has shown such resolve this month, delivering two command performances against Oakland during the AL Division Series in what has been the finest postseason of his career. Tuesday in Game 3, he has the chance to pitch the Tigers to within one victory of the World Series.
Verlander's most recent outing — a masterful shutout, on the road, in the winner-take-all Game 5 — was reminiscent of former postseason aces like Jack Morris and Curt Schilling. Morris himself saw it coming.
"They asked me to predict what would happen in the game," said Morris, a postseason analyst for MLB.com. "My prediction was nine innings. He pitched nine innings. My prediction was 13 strikeouts. Well, he dinked around and only got 11. My prediction was five hits. What did he give up? Four? So I screwed up there. And I thought he'd give up one run, because I thought one of the Oakland A's would run into a bomb. They didn't.
"I was pretty right on with what I thought, and it's only because he's got the best stuff in the game and he's become a better pitcher.
Morris added: "I really think we haven't seen the best of Justin Verlander yet. He's getting better and better because he's getting smarter."
Six years after his postseason debut, Verlander is showing the benefits of that knowledge. After the Tigers won his first two playoff games in 2006, Verlander had a 5.63 ERA over his next five postseason outings — including two rain-shortened starts last October. But then he turned in a dominant performance to win an elimination game against Texas in last year's ALCS, followed by the emphatic wins over Oakland this month
"There's still the angst and nervousness and pregame jitters, but I feel like I've pitched in some big games now and understand what my body's going to be going through and what my mind's going to be going through," Verlander said Monday. "I'm able to rein it in a little more and use it more to my advantage than have it be detrimental to me."
That calm is masking the inherent pressure of this postseason for the Tigers.
During a recent interview, Verlander said candidly that "this year and next year, when you look at the contracts coming up" constitute the Tigers' best window in which to win it all. For a man who speaks openly about a desire to win 300 games and be enshrined at Cooperstown, a World Series ring is about the only omission on a résumé that already includes Most Valuable Player and Cy Young awards — not to mention a pair of no-hitters. And Verlander wants badly to win that championship with the only professional organization he's known.
He knows how close he is to free agency. He knows what the market value would be for the best pitcher in baseball — a distinction he has earned over the past two seasons. He knows that the Tigers' ability to afford him (and a championship-caliber supporting cast) hinges on the largesse of the franchise's octogenarian owner.
"I love Detroit," Verlander said the other day, "and I want to play on a winning team."
Right now, the Tigers offer that opportunity. That is why he, Cabrera and Fielder have contracts through 2014, 2015 and 2020, respectively. Ilitch has turned the Tigers into a destination franchise for superstars, in a city that was forgotten to the baseball world for the better part of two decades. But no one knows how much longer the party will last, or if a future ownership change will bring the Tigers' spending more in line with their AL Central neighbors.
The other teams in baseball's Final Four have accounted for the final champagne sips in each of the last three seasons — the Yankees in 2009, the Giants in 2010, the Cardinals in 2011. The Tigers' most recent title came in 1984. This needs to be their year, because they can't be sure they'll get another opportunity quite like this.

SF International Asian American Film Festival
Published 4:00 am, Friday, February 11, 2011
"West Is West" - a British sequel to "East Is East" about the relocation of a teenage boy from Manchester, England, to Pakistan that was the opening night film of the Mostly British Film Festival earlier this month - will also open the San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival at the Castro Theatre on March 10, with an after-party at the Asian Art Museum.
The 29th edition of the largest Asian film festival in the United States will close its San Francisco portion with "Surrogate Valentine," a black-and-white mock-rockumentary by Dave Boyle ("White on Rice") shot partially in the Richmond and Sunset districts, at the Sundance Kabuki Cinemas on March 17.
The festival is primarily based at the Kabuki, Castro, Clay and the Pacific Film Archive in Berkeley, then moves on for its traditional weekend in San Jose from March 18-20.
New festival director Masashi Niwano, festival managing director Christine Kwon and their team have also selected "Clash," a throwback martial arts thriller that was Vietnam's biggest box-office hit of 2009, as the festival's centerpiece presentation on March 13, and are spotlighting filmmaker Gurinder Chadha.
Chadha will check in via Skype to present her latest film, a comedy about a mother who is a serial killer called "It's a Wonderful Afterlife," plus an old favorite - her 2002 audience-pleaser "Bend It Like Beckham."
Showing nearly 100 films overall (43 features, 54 shorts), the festival boasts five feature-length world premieres and 10 others that are U.S. premieres.
The 29th San Francisco International Asian American Film Festival: March 10-20. San Francisco, Berkeley and San Jose venues. www.caamedia.org.

Kings most recent book 11/22/63 entered 2012 at the top of the NY Times Bestseller List.
Lilja's Library has a good post about past number ones (nearly every book written by King) and the amount of time spent at the top of the list.
The critics have been very kind to this book, and with good reason, but it's really gratifying that in his fifth decade of publishing books, King is just as popular as ever, if not more so. The reading audience is changing, but they still love Stephen King. That's pretty amazing.

Color Text & Graphics Get Envelopes Opened
Pitney Bowes commissioned a study to identify factors that could influence when and whether recipients would open their mail and read it. The April 2010 study by Leflein Associates, examined preferences, attitudes and behaviors about mail as received at home by approximately 1,500 U.S. adults.
Participants were presented with graphic depictions of envelopes to determine which features would make them most likely to open them. They examined an average of 16 screens, each containing 4 randomized envelopes, to test for variables including the presence of text, graphics and color on envelope fronts and backs.

A little birdie informs Tellybuzz, "A huge drama is in store in the show for the audience as on the wedding day, there's going to be a twist which will leave Dimpy all alone in the Mandap."
Elaborating on the sequence our source says, "As Daksh always believes in making quick money and aspires to be a rich man one day, he decides to marry his boss, Lipika (Khushboo Garewal). Therefore on the wedding day Daksh doesn't turn up to the venue leaving Dimpy alone to face the society."
"That was not all for the family as the next day Daksh returns home along with Lipika, announcing her as his wife. That leaves the entire family in a shock."
"Right now Sangeet ceremony of Dimpy is going on and everyone is quite happy for the wedding to happen," signs off source.
We contacted Neha Janpandit but she refused to comment on the same.
Aniruddh Singh comments, "I don't think, all this will happen, because right now we are shooting the sangeet ceremony on the sets."
Curtains will raise from the wedding drama on 9th of May…

Want to know a super kinda gross fact? Our bodies are more bacteria than human! Kinda gross right?!
There are up to 2,000 species of micro-organisms in our gut. Things like bacteria, viruses, parasites and yeast have built tiny little cozy homes in there and let me tell you, they like it. So how do we keep those little buggers under control? Well, probiotics are a great tool.
And what are probiotics you might ask? Probiotics are live micro-organisms and are often referred to as the good bacteria. Probiotics promote a healthy digestive tract and really support the immune system. And since 60-80% of your immune system is in your gut, well it's a no-brainer to add probiotics to your daily routine.
Ok so what's the best way to add probiotics to your diet? Well, you can add fermented foods like sauerkraut and kimchi, miso and tempeh and even kombucha. (side note: prebiotic foods such as ocean-based plants like chlorella, blue-green algae and spirulina provide nourishment to the existing bacteria in your gut and therefore improve your digestive health)
Another fantastic way to ensure you are feeding your gut in the best way is by taking a probiotic supplement. Genuine Health, one of my favorite companies, recently released their new Advanced Gut Health Probiotic Supplements. So when I was offered a chance to give them a try I jumped at it. After all, Genuine Health is the leader in Gut Health so I knew these babies would be incredible. (I also LOVE adding the Genuine Health fermented vegan protein+ to my morning smoothies…the CHOCOLATE is incredible!!!!!!)
One thing that I really love about these probiotics, besides the 15-strain formula for maximum impact, is that the capsule is vegan and plastic free! You'd be so surprised at how much plastic is in those little pills you take on the regular. You know what else is awesome about these probiotics?
- Vegan
- GMO-free
- Gluten & Soy free
I also really like that these caps don't need to be refrigerated so that I can take them with me when I travel, which is typically when the body is at it's highest level for stress and unbalanced nutritional state.
It's been almost 3 weeks now and I can honestly say the 50 billion CFU's are doing my body good! I've really noticed a smoother morning routine and a lot less in the surprise department. But the biggest change I've noticed is bloating, or lack of. I almost always have bloating by the end of the day no matter what I am eating and it has been significantly less lately. I typically just pop one in the morning with my breakfast and i'm set for the day. Once I've completed this advance round and whipped my gut into shape, i'll be switching over to the 15 billion CFU daily tabs.
So overall, I am super excited about these little caps of bacteria and my gut is most definitely in love as well!
