The door is closing!

The door is getting ready to close!

In Noah’s day after they had gathered on the ark:

Genesis 7:16 16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the Lord shut him in.

In Abraham and Lot’s day, Abraham asked the Lord in Genesis 18: 23  “Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked?
When destruction was imminent, Genesis 19: 15 With the coming of dawn, the angels urged Lot, saying, “Hurry! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away when the city is punished.”

16 When he hesitated, the men grasped his hand and the hands of his wife and of his two daughters and led them safely out of the city, for the Lord was merciful to them.

In Jesus’s parable of the 5 wise and the 5 foolish virgins: 10 “But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.
11 “Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’
12 “But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’
13 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.

The proper question is not do YOU know about the Lord?

The proper question is: does the Lord know you? Have you done everything you know to do to prepare your heart to meet the Lord? Or are you going about your daily activities with no thought of the Lord or what you can be doing to further his kingdom? The door of opportunity is getting ready to close on the Church age and when it shuts there will be weeping and wailing outside the door, saying please let me in! And the Lord will reply: ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’

Prepare your heart to meet Jesus Christ, repent of your sins and do what you know to be right!

37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

The door is beginning to close, are you where you need to be with the Lord Jesus Christ?
