Which parable did Jesus use to emphasize the importance of being prepared for His return?

Correct Answer

C) The Parable of the Ten Virgins

The Parable of the Ten Virgins, found in Matthew 25:1-13, highlights the importance of being prepared for Jesus' return. In the parable, ten virgins await the arrival of the bridegroom, but only five are wise enough to bring extra oil for their lamps. When the bridegroom arrives unexpectedly, the five wise virgins are ready and enter the wedding feast, while the five foolish ones are left outside. This parable underscores the need for readiness and vigilance, reminding us to live each day with purpose and intention, eagerly anticipating the return of Christ.
