Stay Here for 3 Minutes and You Will Gain the Chance to Welcome the Lord Like the Wise Virgins
In the Lord Jesus’ prophecy about His return, He mentioned two types of people: the wise virgins and foolish virgins. The wise virgins will listen to the voice of God and welcome the Lord, while the foolish virgins will be forsaken by the Lord and be plunged into disasters and eliminated. A lot of people hope to be wise virgins to welcome the Lord’s return in the last days, then how can we achieve it? The Lord Jesus said, “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (John 10:27). The Book of Revelation predicts, “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me” (Revelation 3:20). So the Lord would speak utterances to knock on our doors upon His return. The wise virgins are those who seek and listen for the words of the Lord returned. They can recognize the voice of God from the words and put aside their notions to obey and accept the new work of the Holy Spirit. This is receiving the Lord and feasting with Him. Just as God’s words say, “Since we are searching for the footprints of God, it behooves us to search for God’s will, for the words of God, for His utterances — because wherever there are new words spoken by God, the voice of God is there, and wherever there are the footsteps of God, God’s deeds are there. Wherever there is the expression of God, there God appears, and wherever God appears, there the truth, the way, and the life exist” (“The Appearance of God Has Ushered in a New Age”). “All who are able to obey the present utterances of the Holy Spirit are blessed. It does not matter how they used to be, or how the Holy Spirit used to work within them — those who have gained the latest work of God are the most blessed, and those who are unable to follow the latest work today are eliminated. God wants those who are able to accept the new light, and He wants those who accept and know His latest work. Why is it said that you must be a chaste virgin? A chaste virgin is able to seek the work of the Holy Spirit and understand the new things, and moreover, able to put aside old notions, and obey the work of God today” (“Know God’s Newest Work and Follow His Footsteps”). Today, the Lord has returned and expressed millions of words. God is using His words to seek those who pay attention to His words and yearn for His return.
