Matthew 25:1 KJV
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
From Scofield's Notes out of verse one I find this threefold outline;
Three types of tests are administered when Jesus returns,
The test of profession
In the Ten Virgins
The test of service
In the three stewards
The test of the nations
In the final parable
Jesus' coming to establish his kingdom will be after the Rapture so this doesn't speak to present day Christians except in a general sense. Those who have endured through the trials of the Great Tribulation still must stand before the Lord.
