Wondering about God and Bible? But how you can explain such a strange words in a Bible where it says that God likes only girls who switch light on as a lamp and have an oil enough to keep it burning all night long?!? And if you are unprepared lazy, you shall have no good future. Chirch never read this part of the Bible during usual service.

The more I read the Bible, the more I understand that it was written only for one person when that person reach 33 years old to understand everything.

Actually, yes, the "chirch" has read that part of the Bible plenty of times. They aren't strange words at all. The point of the passage you are referring to is not that God only likes these girls. It is that we must be prepared when Christ returns without warning, just as the Jewish bridegroom in those days came for his bride. There won't be time to go get ready once he has arrived. If we aren't ready at that point, it is too late. The second comment really makes no sense at all. The Bible is written for people to know who God is and how he works in and through his people through time. It also reveals the true path of salvation through Jesus Christ.

I do not like reading Bible often, I only use it to anser for my questions. Yesterday I asked a question and received an anser that " God doesnt like people who imagine themselves like a God" That was a streight answer that I souldnt worry if I am prepared or not, He will never come to me. I feel like relaxing

While it is definitely true that God does not like anyone who imagines themselves to be like a god, that doesn't mean that he will never come to you. Even people who believe themselves to be "gods" can repent and receive Christ.
