Matthew 25:13

Therefore, be on your guard (ready, stand up), for you know neither the day nor the hour when the Son of Man will come."
[At a wedding in Jesus' time, the legal part takes place first at the bride's family home. Sometime during the evening, the bride and groom arrive and all the guests go to the banquet hall. It is dark and lamps are needed. Some of the bridesmaids are not prepared and do not have enough oil for the whole journey. On festive evenings like these, the shops stayed open longer so that more oil could be bought. The parable is about being spiritually prepared. It is not possible to live on someone else's preparation; each person is responsible for their own spiritual life. Many different suggestions have been made as to what the oil represents: good deeds, faith, grace, the Holy Spirit. None of these can be bought, so it is difficult to allegorize the oil, nor is it necessary for understanding.]
