Matthew 25:1-13
All virgins prepared their lamps. And they all became drowsy and fell asleep. They looked the same so far. However, when the bridegroom came, their entity revealed. The wise ones had enough oil but the foolish ones did not. Finally, the bridegroom assign them a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. All of Christians look the same but the content of every life can be different. And the Bible says it is hypocritical. It will determine our destiny that whether we shine the lights from the lamp we hold now.

Matthew 25:14-30
It is not about money but about attitude which waiting for Jesus. We have received something precious from God. And then, we have to be faithful to surrender our life to God. Our passion and devotion for what we are given manifest our understanding about God and our connection to Jesus. Hypocrites seem to be religious but they have nothing to give back to the Lord. Right understanding and relationship will make good fruits in us and they are the firm evidences for our salvation.

Matthew 25:31-46
There are two kinds of people in front of God at the time of judgment. They look almost same but God will separate them into two. And then, he will treat them properly according to their deeds. Believers and hypocrites have the same feature in term of that they did not know what they did, but God will judge them. Nobody excuses I did not know what God wants because the Bible show them clearly. If we are filled with the Holy Spirit, we will have salvation and attitude as he is asking us. And the attitude that the Spirit leads is to love people who need our help.
