Nothing in the Master's words are regarding the wicked. The entire context is directed to pure virgins who are not prepared for the Bridegroom with oil in their lamps. The two animals presented are both clean animals, not one clean & the other unclean. These are servants of of the Master who are coming up short & ending for aionios correction!

The foundation for everlasting punishment =

1. I was hungry & you gave me no meat.

2. I was thirsty & you gave me no drink.

3. I was a stranger & you took me not in.

4. I was naked & you clothed me not.

5. I was sick & you did not visit me.

6. I was in prison & you did not minister to me.
Are our broadest hopes broad enough? Shall there be a nook or abyss, in all the universe of God, finally unlightened by the Cross? Shall there be a sin, or sorrow, or pain unhealed? Is the very universe, is creation in all its extent, a field wide enough for the Son of God?
