We are to watch, and not be found sleeping:
Mark 13:35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.
We are to watch, and not be found sleeping:
Romans 13:11 And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
I Thessalonians 5:6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
Yet, all ten virgins sleep:
Matthew 25:1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.
What does that mean?Are we like them, sleeping at the very end?
Mark 14:37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?
Or are we, God forbid, possibly like these?
Isaiah 56:10 His watchmen are blind: they are all ignorant, they are all dumb dogs, they cannot bark; sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
