The ten virgins represent born again believers. The oil represents the Holy Spirit. The five who are wise continue in the grace of salvation until the groom's coming. The five foolish virgins do not - the parable of the sower - they fall away, not remaining until the end. God promises to never leave us but that does not prohibit us from leaving him. Jesus said abide in me and I will abide in you. How are we to abide? By continuing with faith and obedience.
Only five are true believers. The Holy Spirit is sealed in all believers. Ephesians 4:30 "And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption."
Robert Cain:: Philippians 1:6 And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. If we can walk away we were never of him.

So the most powerful demonic strongholds cannot take us away from God but we can. Makes sense.
@@DogSoldier1948 What do you do with the parable of the sower? Matt 13
God will never tell born again believers, I never knew you! Hence, why do you think 5 were wise or saved and 5 were foolish, not saved!
He spoke about being a foolish virgin. So how is one a wise virgin?
J Xmas he develops the teaching of wise virgins later in this series
