Wisconsin priest says the 'Parable of the Ten Bridesmaids' is a warning to humanity
Fox News
The Parable of the Ten Bridesmaids illustrates the relationship between Jesus — the bridegroom — and the Church, his bride, says a priest based in Wisconsin in this week's faith reflection.
In the parable, Jesus tells of 10 bridesmaids — five foolish and five wise. The foolish bridesmaids did not bring oil for their lamps to meet the bridegroom, who wound up being delayed. "We’ve settled for mechanics where we actually need metaphysics." Christine Rousselle is a lifestyle reporter with Fox News Digital.
When the bridesmaids fell asleep waiting, their lamps were going out — and the wise bridesmaids who were prepared did not share their oil.
