Understanding the times in which we live, Pt 2.

"Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom," Matt 25:1.

(Preached in Tavistock FPC)

It is the privilege of God's people to share in a knowledge of God's present purpose on this earth and what He purposes to do in the future.

I believe that there is no area of Bible knowledge today about which God's people are more confused and deluded than that of the end times.

The words of the Saviour in this parable tells us what the circumstances of Christendom will be just before He returns. An understanding of His words will greatly assist us amidst the confusion that reigns amongst Christians generally as to what is happening today.

What are the developments that are to be expected in the professing church in the last days? This parable will give us an answer to that question.
