NOT KNOWING THE VIRGINS WITHOUT LIGHT 6/06/12
All 10 were virgins = Christians
All 10 HAD their light = Christians
5 lost their light and Jesus said I do not know you.
(Notice He didn’t say depart from Me as in losing of
salvation.) When I looked up the word “know” in the
Englishmans, the list of verses all said either know or
see.
Matt 25:6-12 KJV
And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the
bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. 7 Then all
those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the
foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our
lamps are gone out. 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. 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. 11 Afterward came also the other
virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. 12 But he
answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know {#
1492} you not.
NT:1492 TO SEE/ KNOW
eido (i'-do); a primary verb; used only in certain past
tenses, the others being borrowed from the equivalent
NT:3700 and NT:3708; properly,
to see (literally or
figuratively); by implication (in the perf.
only) to know:
KJV - be aware, behold, can (+not tell), consider,
(have) know (-ledge), look (on), perceive, see, be sure,
tell, understand, wish, wot. Compare NT:3700.
NT:4570 GONE OUT
sbennumi (sben'-noo-mee); a prolonged form of an
apparently primary verb; to extinguish (literally
or figuratively):
KJV - go out, quench.
Most of the translations say that their light was going
out, but in the original it says their light has gone
out and is extinguished. They lost their light.
REVELATION: I always thought that the word
“know” in this verse was related to bridal intimacy.
But it is not that word at all. It means to see. This
word is used 651 times in the NT and they are translated
to see and to know. They are used in context to
literally seeing someone or something.
As I was pondering this, you cant see someone in the
dark, unless they have light. If it is gross darkness
and the virgin does not have her lamp, she is not baring
light and you cant see her!
John 12:35-36 NKJV
Then Jesus said to them, "A little while longer the
light is with you. Walk while you have the light, lest
darkness overtake you; he who walks in darkness does not
know {# 1492} where he is going. 36 While you
have the light, believe in the light, that you may
become sons of light." These things Jesus spoke, and
departed, and was hidden from them.
We are commissioned to bare light in the gross
darkness. I believe with all my heart for those with
extra oil, this is a
literal light, just as when Peter cast light
and people were healed when his shadow passed by. This
is the fulfillment of the
Daystar rising within us.
Matt 5:14-16 NKJV
"You are the light of the world. A city that is set
on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do they light a lamp
and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it
gives light to all who are in the house. 16 Let your
light so shine before men, that they may see your good
works and glorify your Father in heaven.
Isa 60:3
The Gentiles shall come to your light, And kings to
the brightness of your rising.
2 Peter 1:17-21 THE MT OF TRANSFIGURATION
For He received from God the Father honor and glory
when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory:
"This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased." 18
And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we
were with Him on the holy mountain. 19 And so we have
the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed
as a light that
shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the
morning star rises in your hearts; 20 knowing
this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any
private interpretation, 21 for prophecy never came by
the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were
moved by the Holy Spirit.

WORD TO PONDER: LITERAL LIGHT AND LITERAL
DARKNESS
6/25/11
When I was on the mountain with Moses and Elijah, My
face gave forth light rays like the sun. Before Stephen
was stoned, as he was testifying of Me, he literally
shone with God's glory on his face. When Peter's shadow
cast over people, they were healed. Peter literally had
light coming out of him casting a real shadow. When
Moses came down from the Mt, his face shone and
literally cast light.
In the days of gross darkness, My sent ones will
literally shine as literal lights when they testify of
Me. Wherever they go, they will bring literal light,
hope and peace. They will be transported in and out of
crowds, walking through walls as I did after I arose.
They will minister great hope and comfort that I have
not forsaken those who are depending upon Me during a
time of gross darkness.
Matt 17:2 NKJV
He was transfigured before them. His face shone like
the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.
Acts 6:15 NLT
At this point everyone in the high council stared at
Stephen, because his face became as bright as an
angel's.
Ex 34:30 NKJV
So when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw
Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were
afraid to come near him.
Acts 12:7-8 NKJV
Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a
light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the
side and raised him up, saying, "Arise quickly!" And his
chains fell off his hands.
Luke 2:8-11 NKJV
Now there were in the same country shepherds living
out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by
night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before
them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and
they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them,
"Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings
of great joy which will be to all people.
Num 6:25-26 NKJV
The Lord make His face shine upon you, and be
gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance upon
you, and give you peace.
