That G-d's anointed ones are a source of oil! Throughout the Word we were given prophets, Israel, Messiah,... as instruments of the Spirit of truth. I relate this to the verse to documented Denise! :</p>
<p>"Exodus 27:20-21</p>
<p>And thou shalt command the children of Israel, that they bring (H3947- to take, buy, carry away) thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamp to burn always."</p>

<p>Great discussion. This is how I understand the parable of the Ten Virgins-- </p>
<p>Five wise virgins ( Five represents Divine Grace) They had oil. Olive oil is used for anointing or consecrating.

His "wife hath made herself ready."</p>

<p>Five foolish virgins had lamps-- but no oil (anointing or consecration) Their lamps had gone out- they ran out of oil. </p>
<p>This takes me to the commandment of God in Exodus 27:20-21</p>
<p>And thou shalt command the children of Israel, that they bring (H3947- to take, buy, carry away) thee pure oil olive beaten for the light, to cause the lamp to burn always.</p>
<p>In the tabernacle of the congregation without the vail, which is before the testimony, Aaron, and his sons shall order it from evening to morning before the Lord: it shall be a statute for ever unto their generations on the behalf of the children of Israel.</p>

<span>Just updating with my (current) conclusion (on The <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Parable</strong></span>):</span><br />
</div>
<div class="_209g _2vxa">
<span>God's people (Wise virgins/ born of the Spirit) were telling the others (foolish virgins/ believers) That they need to go to "ho/he/to" (The One) who supplies (the Holy Spirit/Wisdom/ Grace) and "buy" from Him. That we cant supply people with the Holy Spirit but rather man has to come to GOD for the oil. We exchange are bodies, failures, for his victories (are Born again) and thus blessed with the Holy Spirit. In the Last days (just before the coming of Messiah) those not in covenant (many) will recognize that their are some in covenant that fear not the tribulation (but are comforted even in the midst of tribulation) and they carnally will seek them (these people with oil) for assurance when assurance is in a ongoing relationship with Yah.</span><br />

<div class="_209g _2vxa">
<span>I think I was just looking to highlight the wrong words. lets look at a portion again:</span><br />

<div class="_209g _2vxa">
<span>"but go ye rather to them that sell" (KJV)</span><br />

<div class="_209g _2vxa"></div>
<div class="_209g _2vxa">
<span>"Them" (kjv) </span>here is actually strong's ***#<br />
<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>3588</strong></span> which means- The masculine, feminine (second) and neuter (third) forms, in all their inflections; the definite article; the (sometimes to be supplied, at others omitted, in English idiom): - the, this, that, one, he, she, it, .. etc..(they)<br />
</div>
<div class="_209g _2vxa">
<span>So the elect werent telling these foolish virgins (believers) to go to man who sells but to The One who supplies the Holy Spirit (wisdom/ Grace) ...</span><br />
</div>
<div class="_209g _2vxa">
<em>So the foolish once had oil (truth, were in covenant, grace, wisdom,..) yet as they slumbered they awoke to find that they were lacking. It never said they had been born again. They were now seeking what they didnt have (they werent born again/ in covenant) yet had fallen away during the great apostasy. One can blaspheme the Holy Spirit but to do so is to fall into Apostasy. The Light of the foolish virgins went OUT. They had no works (in the Spirit) Faith without works is Dead. They were virgins in the sense that they werent in idolatry (Spiritual fornication and adultery) but they were not One with Yah either (Born Again), They were not in covenant (<span style="text-decoration: underline;">they were rejected <strong>Matt.25:10-12</strong></span>). Devils Believe (in one G-D) and acknowledge Christ but their fruits are not of the Holy Spirit.</em><br />
