They Focus on the Lamp
First off, thanks for inviting me here (finally) as admin and author, and I think it's about time (right Gaerlan CS?) because it's my email that's used in this blog 😄. Anyway, we plan to put up a gmail for Small Seed in the offing, just so there's less confusion with our readers.

And talk about confusion, there's going to be lots of it in church in these last days. We get a hint from the Lord's parable about the 10 virgins--5 were wise and 5 were foolish or confused. Remember? The 5 foolish thought owning a lamp was enough to make them secure for the rapture (if you refuse to believe in the coming rapture, read on, before total confusion sets in).
Half of Christendom (or half of the modern church) are going to be foolish in these last days because they simply focus on their lamps, not the oil in the lamp. The lamp is given too much emphasis today. They spend enormous amount of money on it, renovate it, beautify it and brag about it as some kind of accomplishment. In fact, they equate it with ministry success. They can't imagine ministry without the lamp.
Yup, they worship the lamp.
And the lamp is anything God uses to put his oil in, but which many in church today give more importance than the oil of the Holy Spirit. Get it? Yeah, God uses the lamp, but that does not mean it's important. It's not. God can very well use other vessels. What's vital is his oil; it's what gives light to the lamp. But churches have forgotten about this.
They focus on the lamp--the local church, their church denomination, church buildings and facilities, sound system, music and instruments, choir, worship team, ministries, church programs and activities, gimmicks, conferences, seminars, human theology, seminary titles and degrees, etc.
Anything but the oil of the Holy Spirit.

For instance, many believers do not know how to be led by the Spirit of God. Specifically, how to hear the voice of God, how to be sensitive to his leading, how to discern between voices or spirits, how to move in the supernatural revelations of the Holy Spirit, how to operate in the supernatural, and more importantly, how to listen to the Holy Spirit as you meditate God's Word in the bible and apply it in God's supernatural ways--exactly as Jesus and the apostles did it.
That's the oil--how you are totally surrendered to the Holy Spirit (anointed) and used by him supernaturally like Jesus was (The Anointed One). Yeah, even in evangelism. Remember how Jesus evangelized? It was hand-in-hand with miracles and signs and wonders. You don't see this anymore in church. All you see are marketing gimmicks on how to attract more people to church and increase church income. And yeah, theology professors and philosophers who know nothing about God's supernatural.
Thus, the 5 foolish virgins wasted time focusing on their lamps. They really thought lamps were going to give them light and discovered too late the importance of putting oil in them. They thought possessing lamps was smart, so they spent time learning about lamps in their bible schools and seminaries, and spent money to get the best lamps possible (spent money for church buildings, properties, vehicles, posh altars, etc).
The 5 wise spent time and money only on one thing--the oil. That's the Word of God (particularly the spoken rhema Word of God) and the genuine, supernatural anointing of the Holy Spirit.
Don't get caught with the 5 foolish virgins when the Groom suddenly comes.
