In ‘Be Alert’, Sylvia preaches from Matthew 25:1-13, the parable of the ten virgins.

Sylvia talks about how, in the story, the 10 Virgins represent the church, with the wise virgins being those who have been filled with the holy spirit and cultivated a relationship with Him, and the foolish virgins representing those who are unprepared, careless, and lacking spiritual readiness.

She also goes into how the oil is The Holy Spirit, and how although every believer receives the Holy Spirit when they are saved, the depth of relationship and reliance on Him determines preparedness. Extra oil represents intentional spiritual effort — prayer, holiness, and staying close to God.

Sylvia warns against being asleep spiritually – becoming complacent, distracted, or careless in faith – but instead tells us to live prepared, as if Christ could come at any time.

The post Sylvia Billington: Be alert first appeared on Jubilee Church Wirral.
