I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, they will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. John 10.9

Imagine someone who despises the revelation of God’s Word and does not accept Jesus as his Savior! When he dies, he will enter the spiritual world, unknown to all, and the door to the heavenly entrance will not be open to him, so he will not be able to find it. But someone who knows the voice of the Good Shepherd will find it. You can only enter the Kingdom of Heaven through Jesus, the Lord. What will you do?

Whoever rejects the Master as Savior despises the Door to the Home of happiness. By hardening their heart to this divine revelation, they do not know the harm they are doing to themselves. The person who acts in this way will surely regret it for ever and ever, but no one will listen to him, because he has refused the work of the Holy Spirit, who convicts of the destruction brought about by sin. There is no greater deception than to act in this way! Be vigilant!

On the other hand, the one who pays attention to the voice of Jesus becomes His sheep and can enter His fold, find pasture, and return to their daily life full of what they received in the presence of the Almighty. As children of the Lord, we must always be fed with the best of Heaven, to overcome the struggles of life and thus glorify the Name of our Lord and Savior. He is good!

The entrance to God’s barn is through Christ, the Word. Whoever refuses to read the Bible and meditate on it will live badly and have problems on the Last Day. Hell threatens us, saying that we will suffer the greatest harshness on its part. However, being with Christ and Him being with us, we will be powerful and not lose a single battle against the devil. God will help us in everything!

We will never again be hungry for the heavenly Bread, which strengthens us for the battles for our deliverance. As long as we make use of the revelations given by God’s Spirit, in His Word, we will succeed. Jesus overcame the forces of evil, being tempted in everything, but He did not sin. What an example to follow! Many have not been vigilant, so they have fallen into temptation and have not repented; no doubt they will taste the second death.

Why do some allow themselves to be led into temptations, even though they know the condemnation that will come and lead them to eternal damnation? We cannot fall into any temptation; otherwise, it will be the end for us. Those who are not vigilant must know this very clearly and firmly, so as not to be surprised at the Judgment, when they are ordered to march toward the lake which will burn with fire and brimstone for ever and ever (Revelation 21.8). Mercy!

I am the Door, said Jesus. By accepting Him as your Savior, you have passed through the Door and will no longer be defeated by the devil’s arrows. Always pray and seek the Lord’s presence, and you will be victorious in every way. The Son of God will always help you get rid of the forces of darkness. He is with you!

In Christ, with love,
