baloney (bə-lō'nē, -nə, -nyə)n. A seasoned smoked sausage made of mixed meats, such as beef, pork, and veal.

We are a mixture, indeed.

Wow! your the first i've met that say they are able to bare the pressence of Christ.
A full lamp is one that has received the power of the Holy Spirit and can come and go as the wind, lay hands on the sick and they are healed, drink any deadly thing and it will not harm them. They are like Christ, Holy and Pure, with no defilements of darkness. Congratulations.

godspeed,

freedom

I am ready to meet Him face to face because I have accepted Jesus as my Savior, and I know someday I will see Him face to face. Hebrews 4:16 "So let us come boldly to the thorn of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it".
We can come with bold assurance before Him, if have trusted Jesus as our Savior.

There are those with lamps half full that were not prepared to marry, and they did believe, they even wished for the others to share their oil (Spirit) but sadly they could not. The parable of lamps is not about Salvation, it is about Exaltation.

That is why i was surprised to see you say your lamp was full.

godspeed,

freedom

The parable is about being ready to meet Jesus and I am ready. Spiritual preparation cannot be bought or borrowed at the last minute, our relationship with God must be our own.
