The Parable Of The Talents

The Parable Of The Ten Virgins

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.

Matthew 25:2  And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

[
Note:
These were ten virgins, so these are Christians waiting for JESUS to return.
Five were knowledgeable, and five had no knowledge and didn’t care about TRUTH.
]

Matthew 25:3  They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

Matthew 25:4  But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

[
Note:
Five didn’t study, didn’t know anything about GOD’S WORD. Five counted it serious and would draw to GOD’S WORD and study properly. Obviously election.
]

Matthew 25:5  While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

Matthew 25:6  And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

Matthew 25:7  Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

Matthew 25:8  And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

[
Note:
Five were caught up into the things of this world. They were doing as in the days of Noe, eating and drinking and giving and taking in marriage (to the false CHRIST). They were like Lot’s wife, looking back at the cares of this world because they liked the devil’s system.
]

Matthew 25:9  But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

[
Note:
I wonder if those five virgins that didn’t have any OIL for their lamps were able to buy and sell because they took the mark of the beast? At this time, it is known by the Revelation that you cannot buy or sell unless you take the mark. So, unless these five foolish virgins took the mark, how could they go buy? This parable is about JESUS returning and who will be prepared and who will not, so the beast is fully in position and deceiving the world.

Revelation 13:16  And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
Revelation 13:17  And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
]

Matthew 25:10  And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

[
Note:
The five that went in with the Bridegroom knew at what hour their Master would return. They were prepared. They knew the signs because they received the love of the TRUTH. They love GOD as little children and they have eyes to see and ears to hear.

2 Thessalonians 2:10  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2 Thessalonians 2:11  And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2 Thessalonians 2:12  That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
]

Matthew 25:11  Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

Matthew 25:12  But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

Matthew 25:13  Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

[
Note:
For those who are not prepared, HE will say “Depart from ME, I never knew you”. For those of us who are prepared, we know that HE comes during the hour of temptation and when HE comes, that starts The LORD’S Day.

Matthew 7:21  Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Matthew 7:22  Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Matthew 7:23  And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Iniquity means lawlessness. Who is the lawless one? It means they worshiped satan.
]

The Parable Of The Talents

Matthew 25:14  For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

Matthew 25:15  And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

[
Note:
I think that this would be JESUS being ascended to the FATHER and giving us eyes to see and ears to hear.
]

Matthew 25:16  Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

[
Note:
The one who had received five talents was able to handle more, so he could see more TRUTH. He gained another five talents by investing GOD’S WORD and bringing a gain of 100 percent for the Kingdom Of Heaven.
]

Matthew 25:17  And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

[
Note:
It’s the same for the servant who had two talents. While he was not able to handle as much as the servant who had the five talents, he still gained 100 percent of what he had for the Kingdom Of Heaven.
]

Matthew 25:18  But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.

[
Note:
The servant that was given one talent could not handle his talents at all. He buried his talent in the earth. The flesh body is made of earth, so this servant kept his knowledge buried within  himself and brought no gain to the Kingdom Of Heaven at all. Is it possible that this is what most people get because they don’t have a love for the TRUTH and they don’t love FATHER enough to try hard? I’m not sure, but if it is the case, a person could change and invest with a stronger heart and build their talents. At least it is possible.
]

Matthew 25:19  After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

Matthew 25:20  And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

Matthew 25:21  His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Matthew 25:22  He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

Matthew 25:23  His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Matthew 25:24  Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

Matthew 25:25  And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.

Matthew 25:26  His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

Matthew 25:27  Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

Matthew 25:28  Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

[
Note:
GOD does not like lazy people. The servant that kept The WORD in himself and gained nothing for GOD, convicted himself by his own words. He knew that GOD has servants for a reason; to bring people to The Kingdom Of Heaven. The fearful will not enter into the Kingdom Of Heaven. Those that do not try will lose what they have.
]

Matthew 25:29  For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

[
Note:
Invest your talents or they may go away and be given to those that do invest and produce a gain for GOD. Remember, if you plant a seed, GOD will determine whether that seed will grow. Some of that seed WILL fall on good ground and produce a hundredfold.

Luke 8:4  And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable:
Luke 8:5  A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.
Luke 8:6  And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.
Luke 8:7  And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.
Luke 8:8  And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Luke 8:9  And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?
Luke 8:10  And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.
Luke 8:11  Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
Luke 8:12  Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
Luke 8:13  They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
Luke 8:14  And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
Luke 8:15  But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
]

Matthew 25:30  And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

[
Note:
And what happens that causes a person to end up in the Millennium for Iron Rod discipline? They fall away to satan when he shows up as antichrist. Isn’t that the same as not having OIL in your lamp?
]

The Final Judgment

Matthew 25:31  When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

Matthew 25:32  And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

Matthew 25:33  And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

[
Note:
The sheep are those who know HIS Voice. Your right hand is symbolic of your work. Those on HIS right hand have OIL in their lamps and have eyes to see and ears to hear. They invested their talents to gain 100 percent for the Kingdom Of Heaven. The goats are those that had pleasure in unrighteousness. They fell away to the false CHRIST because they did not have a love for the TRUTH. They are blind. They don’t have a good and honest heart as the little ones do. They did not put OIL in their lamps and had not invested anything to bring a gain for GOD.
]

Matthew 25:34  Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

[
Note:
Who had their names written in the book of Life from the foundation of the world? It’s those who stood with GOD to overthrow satan in the previous age. They have eyes to see and ears to hear and their Lamps are full with OIL (TRUTH). They invest their talents and gain 100 percent for the Kingdom Of Heaven. One hundred means election in Biblical Numerics.
]

Matthew 25:35  For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

Matthew 25:36  Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

Matthew 25:37  Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

Matthew 25:38  When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?

Matthew 25:39  Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

Matthew 25:40  And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

[
Note:
Think Spiritual food, TRUTH. What would bring a gain for our FATHER? Investing your talents, and you can invest your talents when you keep your Lamps full with OIL.
]

Matthew 25:41  Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

Matthew 25:42  For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

Matthew 25:43  I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

Matthew 25:44  Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

Matthew 25:45  Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

[
Note:
Hebrews 5:12  For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
Hebrews 5:13  For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
Hebrews 5:14  But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Their lamps were empty, their talents were buried in the ground, and they took pleasure in unrighteousness. They worshiped the lawless one and were full of iniquity. The lawless one is the devil, and iniquity is sin, or lawlessness.
]

Matthew 25:46  And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

[
Note:
Matthew 25:30  And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The outer darkness of Iron Rod discipline of The LORD’S Day.

The righteous filled their lamps with OIL, invested their talents, and fed the brethren with strong meat. These little ones will be welcomed into the city that was prepared for them from the foundation of the world.
]

Conclusion

Based on your good and honest heart, bring others to GOD by the TRUTH that HE has given you, or HE will take the TRUTH that HE has given you and give it to someone that will do work for HIM. And you will be left in outer darkness where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 25:3  They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:

Matthew 25:4  But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

[
Note:
Five didn’t study, didn’t know anything about GOD’S WORD. Five counted it serious and would draw to GOD’S WORD and study properly. Obviously election.
]

Matthew 25:5  While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

Matthew 25:6  And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

Matthew 25:7  Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

Matthew 25:8  And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

[
Note:
Five were caught up into the things of this world. They were doing as in the days of Noe, eating and drinking and giving and taking in marriage (to the false CHRIST). They were like Lot’s wife, looking back at the cares of this world because they liked the devil’s system.
]

Matthew 25:9  But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

[
Note:
I wonder if those five virgins that didn’t have any OIL for their lamps were able to buy and sell because they took the mark of the beast? At this time, it is known by the Revelation that you cannot buy or sell unless you take the mark. So, unless these five foolish virgins took the mark, how could they go buy? This parable is about JESUS returning and who will be prepared and who will not, so the beast is fully in position and deceiving the world.

Revelation 13:16  And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
Revelation 13:17  And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
]

Matthew 25:10  And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

[
Note:
The five that went in with the Bridegroom knew at what hour their Master would return. They were prepared. They knew the signs because they received the love of the TRUTH. They love GOD as little children and they have eyes to see and ears to hear.

2 Thessalonians 2:10  And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
2 Thessalonians 2:11  And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
2 Thessalonians 2:12  That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
]

Matthew 25:11  Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

Matthew 25:12  But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

Matthew 25:13  Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

[
Note:
For those who are not prepared, HE will say “Depart from ME, I never knew you”. For those of us who are prepared, we know that HE comes during the hour of temptation and when HE comes, that starts The LORD’S Day.

Matthew 7:21  Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Matthew 7:22  Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
Matthew 7:23  And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Iniquity means lawlessness. Who is the lawless one? It means they worshiped satan.

The Parable Of The Talents

Matthew 25:14  For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.

Matthew 25:15  And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.

[
Note:
I think that this would be JESUS being ascended to the FATHER and giving us eyes to see and ears to hear.
]

Matthew 25:16  Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.

[
Note:
The one who had received five talents was able to handle more, so he could see more TRUTH. He gained another five talents by investing GOD’S WORD and bringing a gain of 100 percent for the Kingdom Of Heaven.
]

Matthew 25:17  And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.

[
Note:
It’s the same for the servant who had two talents. While he was not able to handle as much as the servant who had the five talents, he still gained 100 percent of what he had for the Kingdom Of Heaven.
]

Matthew 25:18  But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.

[
Note:
The servant that was given one talent could not handle his talents at all. He buried his talent in the earth. The flesh body is made of earth, so this servant kept his knowledge buried within  himself and brought no gain to the Kingdom Of Heaven at all. Is it possible that this is what most people get because they don’t have a love for the TRUTH and they don’t love FATHER enough to try hard? I’m not sure, but if it is the case, a person could change and invest with a stronger heart and build their talents. At least it is possible.
]

Matthew 25:19  After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.

Matthew 25:20  And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.

Matthew 25:21  His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Matthew 25:22  He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.

Matthew 25:23  His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Matthew 25:24  Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

Matthew 25:25  And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.

Matthew 25:26  His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:

Matthew 25:27  Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.

Matthew 25:28  Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.

[
Note:
GOD does not like lazy people. The servant that kept The WORD in himself and gained nothing for GOD, convicted himself by his own words. He knew that GOD has servants for a reason; to bring people to The Kingdom Of Heaven. The fearful will not enter into the Kingdom Of Heaven. Those that do not try will lose what they have.
]

Matthew 25:29  For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

[
Note:
Invest your talents or they may go away and be given to those that do invest and produce a gain for GOD. Remember, if you plant a seed, GOD will determine whether that seed will grow. Some of that seed WILL fall on good ground and produce a hundredfold.

Luke 8:4  And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable:
Luke 8:5  A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.
Luke 8:6  And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.
Luke 8:7  And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.
Luke 8:8  And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Luke 8:9  And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?
Luke 8:10  And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.
Luke 8:11  Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
Luke 8:12  Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
Luke 8:13  They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
Luke 8:14  And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
Luke 8:15  But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
]

Matthew 25:30  And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

[
Note:
And what happens that causes a person to end up in the Millennium for Iron Rod discipline? They fall away to satan when he shows up as antichrist. Isn’t that the same as not having OIL in your lamp?
]

The Final Judgment

Matthew 25:31  When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

Matthew 25:32  And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:

Matthew 25:33  And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

[
Note:
The sheep are those who know HIS Voice. Your right hand is symbolic of your work. Those on HIS right hand have OIL in their lamps and have eyes to see and ears to hear. They invested their talents to gain 100 percent for the Kingdom Of Heaven. The goats are those that had pleasure in unrighteousness. They fell away to the false CHRIST because they did not have a love for the TRUTH. They are blind. They don’t have a good and honest heart as the little ones do. They did not put OIL in their lamps and had not invested anything to bring a gain for GOD.
]

Matthew 25:34  Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:

[
Note:
Who had their names written in the book of Life from the foundation of the world? It’s those who stood with GOD to overthrow satan in the previous age. They have eyes to see and ears to hear and their Lamps are full with OIL (TRUTH). They invest their talents and gain 100 percent for the Kingdom Of Heaven. One hundred means election in Biblical Numerics.
]

Matthew 25:35  For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:

Matthew 25:36  Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

Matthew 25:37  Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?

Matthew 25:38  When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?

Matthew 25:39  Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

Matthew 25:40  And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

[
Note:
Think Spiritual food, TRUTH. What would bring a gain for our FATHER? Investing your talents, and you can invest your talents when you keep your Lamps full with OIL.
]

Matthew 25:41  Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

Matthew 25:42  For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:

Matthew 25:43  I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

Matthew 25:44  Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

Matthew 25:45  Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.

[
Note:
Hebrews 5:12  For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
Hebrews 5:13  For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
Hebrews 5:14  But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Their lamps were empty, their talents were buried in the ground, and they took pleasure in unrighteousness. They worshiped the lawless one and were full of iniquity. The lawless one is the devil, and iniquity is sin, or lawlessness.
]

Matthew 25:46  And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

[
Note:
Matthew 25:30  And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The outer darkness of Iron Rod discipline of The LORD’S Day.

The righteous filled their lamps with OIL, invested their talents, and fed the brethren with strong meat. These little ones will be welcomed into the city that was prepared for them from the foundation of the world.
]

Conclusion

Based on your good and honest heart, bring others to GOD by the TRUTH that HE has given you, or HE will take the TRUTH that HE has given you and give it to someone that will do work for HIM. And you will be left in outer darkness where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
