The Lord makes it clear to us that we are prone to self-deception. He tells us to 'examine yourselves to see whether you be in the faith.' He warns us to 'be not deceived.' There are both 'wise' and 'foolish' virgins. There are 'goats' intermingled with the 'sheep,' and 'weeds' growing alongside the 'wheat.'
