Hey all,
In a few posts below, I wrote:
Quote:
The Kingdom of heaven (not the Kingdom of God) was prepared for the Israelites, the Jews. They are the ones who will be cast into outer darkness for rejecting their Messiah. For how long? It does not say? Will they be able to repent and be given another chance? I think so. I hope so. There may be weeping and gnashing of teeth but it does not say that the outer darkness is in the lake of fire. I might be wrong. What I do know is God is an extremely Merciful GOD. And His Mercy endures forever.
My thoughts, my opinion until I discover otherwise is that those Jews will experience outer darkness during the tribulation.

I am posting a very good teaching on outer darkness by Mark Biltz imho and guess what ??!! he supports my thoughts that the outer darkness will occur during the Tribulation for those foolish virgin Jews. But they will make it!
He explains it so much better than I can. He does a great job of connecting the dots.
Matthew 25 corresponds to many OT passages such as Zephaniah 1:8
“Then it will come about on the day of the Lord’s sacrifice
That I will punish the princes, the king’s sons
And all who clothe themselves with foreign garments.
New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Hope these teachings will shed God's Light on the subject of the Outer Darkness which is a punishment for the five foolish Jewish virgins.
Blessings to all.
