There is no way that the parable of the 10 virgins can be related to

the Jewish audience.......most importantly because.....at Christ's

second coming there will be no unbelieving Jews alive at that time...

all of them that remain until the second coming will be the ELECTS...

and no one else..........because God will purge out and destroy all

the unrighteous Jews from off the land prior to His second coming....

the following verses are pretty clear on that....."And it shall come

to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD, two parts therein

shall be CUT OFF and DIE; but the third shall be left therein. And I

will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as

silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall

call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people:

and they shall say, The LORD is my God." Zech 13:8-9........"I will

also stretch out mine hand upon Judah, and upon all the inhabitants

of Jerusalem; and I will cut off the remnant of Baal from this

place, and the name of the Chemarims with the priests; And them that

worship the host of heaven upon the housetops; and them that worship

and that swear by the LORD, and that swear by Malcham; And them that

are turned back from the LORD; and those that have not sought the

LORD, nor enquired for him. And it shall come to pass at that time,

that I will search Jerusalem with candles, and punish the men that

are settled on their lees: that say in their heart, The LORD will

not do good, neither will he do evil. Zeph. 1:4-6,12......But the

verse that BEST proves my point that the remnant of Israel shall all

be righteous is the following:......."The remnant of Israel shall

not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be

found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none

shall make them afraid." Zeph. 3:13.....So that best sums it up....if

all the remnant of Israel are all righteous at the second coming of

Christ..........then it will be totally IMpossible to find any

foolish virgins in their midst.......thus the parable of the 10

virgins has NOTHING to do with the Jews but rather with the CHURCH!
