to_o make_v such_o observation_n upon_o it_o as_o seem_v most_o natural_o and_o without_o squeeze_v the_o parable_n to_o spring_v from_o it_o and_o then_o to_o make_v some_o application_n of_o it_o to_o ourselves_o then_o shall_v the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v liken_v unto_o ten_o virgin_n by_o the_o kingdom_n of_o heaven_n be_v mean_v the_o state_n and_o condition_n of_o thing_n under_o the_o gospel_n by_o the_o ten_o virgin_n those_o who_o embrace_v the_o profession_n of_o it_o which_o be_v here_o represent_v by_o their_o take_v their_o lamp_n and_o go_v forth_o to_o meet_v the_o bridegroom_n in_o allusion_n to_o the_o ancient_a custom_n of_o marriage_n in_o which_o the_o bridegroom_n be_v wont_a to_o lead_v home_o his_o bride_n in_o the_o night_n by_o the_o light_n of_o lamp_n or_o torch_n but_o this_o profession_n be_v not_o in_o all_o equal_o firm_a and_o fruitful_a and_o therefore_o those_o who_o persevere_v and_o continue_v steadfast_a in_o this_o profession_n notwithstanding_o all_o the_o temptation_n and_o allurement_n of_o the_o world_n and_o all_o the_o fierce_a storm_n and_o assault_n of_o persecution_n to_o which_o this_o profession_n be_v expose_v and_o be_v thus_o firm_o root_v in_o it_o do_v bring_v forth_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o abound_v in_o the_o grace_n and_o virtue_n of_o a_o good_a life_n these_o be_v the_o wise_a virgin_n but_o those_o who_o either_o desert_a this_o profession_n or_o do_v not_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n answerable_a to_o it_o be_v the_o foolish_a virgin_n and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o true_a difference_n between_o they_o will_v appear_v if_o we_o consider_v how_o the_o parable_n represent_v they_o vers_n 3_o 4._o they_o that_o be_v foolish_a take_v their_o lamp_n and_o take_v no_o oil_n with_o they_o but_o the_o wise_a take_v oil_n in_o their_o vessel_n with_o their_o lamp_n so_o that_o they_o both_o take_v their_o lamp_n and_o both_o light_v they_o and_o therefore_o must_v both_o be_v suppose_v to_o have_v some_o oil_n in_o their_o lamp_n at_o first_o as_o appear_v from_o verse_n 8._o where_o the_o foolish_a virgin_n say_v unto_o the_o wise_a give_v we_o of_o your_o oil_n for_o our_o lamp_n be_v go_v out_o they_o have_v it_o seem_v some_o oil_n in_o their_o lamp_n at_o first_o which_o keep_v they_o light_v for_o a_o little_a while_n but_o have_v take_v no_o care_n for_o a_o future_a supply_n and_o therefore_o the_o difference_n between_o the_o wise_a and_o foolish_a virgin_n do_v not_o as_o some_o have_v imagine_v consist_v in_o this_o that_o the_o wise_a virgin_n have_v oil_n but_o the_o foolish_a have_v none_o but_o in_o this_o that_o the_o foolish_a have_v take_v no_o care_n for_o a_o further_a supply_n after_o the_o oil_n which_o be_v at_o first_o put_v into_o their_o lamp_n be_v spend_v as_o the_o wise_a have_v do_v who_o beside_o the_o oil_n that_o be_v in_o their_o lamp_n carry_v likewise_o a_o reserve_v in_o some_o other_o vessel_n for_o a_o continual_a supply_n of_o the_o lamp_n as_o there_o shall_v be_v occasion_n the_o wise_a take_v oil_n in_o their_o vessel_n with_o their_o lamp_n now_o the_o meaning_n of_o all_o this_o be_v that_o they_o who_o be_v represent_v by_o the_o wise_a virgin_n have_v not_o only_o embrace_v the_o profession_n of_o the_o christian_a religion_n as_o the_o foolish_a virgin_n also_o have_v do_v for_o they_o both_o have_v their_o lamp_n light_v but_o they_o likewise_o persevere_v in_o that_o profession_n and_o bring_v forth_o fruit_n answerable_a to_o it_o for_o by_o oil_n in_o their_o lamp_n and_o the_o first_o light_v of_o they_o which_o be_v common_a to_o they_o both_o be_v mean_v that_o solemn_a profession_n of_o faith_n and_o repentance_n which_o all_o christian_n make_v in_o baptism_n by_o that_o far_a supply_n of_o oil_n which_o the_o wise_a virgin_n only_o take_v care_n to_o provide_v be_v signify_v our_o constancy_n and_o perseverance_n in_o this_o profession_n together_o with_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o spirit_n and_o the_o improvement_n of_o the_o grace_n receive_v in_o baptism_n by_o the_o practice_n and_o exercise_v of_o all_o the_o grace_n and_o virtue_n of_o a_o good_a life_n whereby_o man_n be_v fit_v and_o prepare_v for_o death_n and_o judgement_n which_o be_v here_o represent_v to_o we_o by_o the_o come_n of_o the_o bridegroom_n this_o be_v plain_o the_o main_a scope_n and_o intention_n of_o the_o parable_n i_o shall_v explain_v the_o rest_n of_o it_o as_o there_o shall_v be_v occasion_n under_o the_o several_a observation_n which_o i_o
