From the above text (Matthew 25; 1-2), there are ten virgins in which five were wise while the remaining five were foolish. These were not called foolish because of their complexion, race, age, academic qualification, language or gender, but for their actions. It was their deeds that make them to be termed foolish. At times, we, ourselves are bearing bad names that we tagged some people. It was because of their deeds that made them to be called foolish.Not because they cannot pray, but because they are foolish. Jesus knew and made us understand that the cause of their mistake is their foolishness. Academic qualification does not mean that one is wise. Even there are many men of God that are foolish. Age is not a determinant of wisdom: you may be old and not wise.
