THERE'S MORE BEHIND THE DOOR

There's More Behind the Door
Steve Wagers
Genesis 7, Exodus 12, Revelations 3


Game Show - ''Let's Make a Deal'' Monty Hall would give contestants 3 doors. They could trade what they had for what was behind one of the other doors. Behind 1 door was a booby prize; behind another door was a prize of equal or greater value; behind the other door was the Grand Prize.

Jesus asks us to trade in our wrecked, ruined lives for one that is filled with joy, peace, love, forgiveness and victory. No Gag Gifts. No need for Returns or Exchanges.

(John 10:9) - HE IS THE DOOR
He is access to a BETTER, BEAUTIFUL and BLESSED life

3 Doors in the Bible illustrate this blessed truth.

1) The Door of the ARK
(REST)
(Genesis 7)

Noah - ''Rest''
In the ark, Noah found REST and REFUGE

A) A SINGLE Door (16)

Only ONE way in/out. Set low enough so ALL could enter.
(John 10:9; 14:6) - Jesus in ONLY way to the Father

1 Window - Look UP
3 Stories - Work of TRINITY in Salvation (Trichotomy of Man)

B) A SUFFICIENT Door (1-9)

1st Invitation in the Bible - ''COME'' (Invitation is God's Idea)
''COME'' - God is on the INSIDE of the Ark

Door was sufficient enough so that ALL of creation (2X2) could enter
Anybody that wants to go to Heaven can go. They just have to COME
Elects - Whosoever WILLS
Non-Elects - Whosoever WONT'S

C) A SHUT Door (16)

Why didn't Noah shut the door?
He SHOULDN'T shut it - God made it
He COULDN'T shut it - Too big
He WOULDN'T shut - Lost family outside

One day, GOD WILL SHUT THE DOOR

2) The Door of the ATONEMENT!
(REDEMPTION)
Exodus 12

Final plague in Egypt. Death angel makes house calls.

A) SACRIFICE by VICARIOUS Blood (21-23)
