fed on Him, and she was a virgin candle in the spirit and body; she was an unquenched candle until the light of the candle became a baby within her, and a Man was born among the people.
Oh, Israel, what a big work the candle is!( Candle- vigil lamp, r. n.) The candle is watchfulness; it is the light into the darkness; it is the earnest of the light not conceived by the dark minds of those who do not watch. Oh, Israel, I want to have a lighted watch in you. I want you to be a wise virgin, My people, as I gave you wisdom, and you should have it if I gave it to you, and not go and buy from those that sell it. No son. You should have it from Me, and I have always told you to have a heavenly kingdom open before Me, a kingdom waiting for Me.( See the selection topic: „ About the kingdom of God”, r. n.) Did you see what I said, what the kingdom of heaven looks like? I spoke about the ten virgins who went out to meet Me, taking their candles with them, and I said that half of them were foolish and only half of them were wise. The foolish ones took only the candles with them, but the wise ones took also oil in their vessels,( Normally in the lamp is used only pure oil, cold pressed oil- untdelemn in Romanian, not refined, not pass through the fire, light of the candle represents wisdom born of love for God proved by fulfilling the word, as the flame of the oil lamp is born, r. n.) to have so that their candles may not go out. This means watchfulness and wisdom. Those who took oil into their vessels were prepared for waking, even if they were about to slumber waiting for their Bridegroom, as during the time of their waiting, they all slumbered and slept. But when there was a cry at midnight: « Behold! The Bridegroom is coming!», they arose and trimmed their candles. The foolish ones saw that their oil was finished, that their candles were going out. The wise ones had vessels prepared with oil. If they had not been wise, they would have given of their oil to the others, who did no longer have, who did not prepare, and when they were asked for the oil, they responded with wisdom: « No so; what if there is not enough for us and for you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves. We have. Take for yourselves; take from those who sell ». And no sooner had the foolish ones left to those who sell than the Bridegroom came, and those that were ready came in at the same time with the Bridegroom to the wedding, and the door was closed after them. And when they that went to those who sell came started to cry at the door: « Lord, open to us!», but only the voice of the Lord came out saying: « I don’ t know you ».
Oh, Israel, do you understand what it means for a man not to be known by God? The man says out of his habit: „ God knows; God knows my heart; the Lord knows what he will do with me; the Lord knows my trouble”, and here is what I told the virgins that did not watch, that were unwise and without oil; I told them: « Truly I speak to you that I do not know you ».
Israel, Israel, you should be careful, and you should have, so that you may not go to those who sell. I gave you, so that you may have. Do no longer go to those who sell.( The church from the world, r. n.). Come son; you have it as a gift. Those who sell have for those who buy. You have it as a gift. You have if you watch. You have if you take from Me. You have if you received from Me; if you received, son. Oh, watch, so that you may have!
Do you see Israel, what watchfulness means? To watch does not mean not to sleep any longer; no, son. To watch means to be careful to have oil for the time when I will wake you up with the cry that says: « Behold! The Bridegroom is coming!». Then, even if you wake up, if you do not have oil in your vessels for candles, you wake up in vain.( Love of God in your soul, r. n.). You cannot go to those who sell then; you are not able to come back from your way, as those who sell, have nothing to give you. Their goods are their goods; it is not for you; it is no longer good for the candle, for you candle.( For your soul, r. n.). You have pure oil in your candle.( Love of God, r. n.). You have because I gave it to you. How about going to buy from man? I have also had
