    Not the Door of Luke 13:25-28

    In the past, errors have been made in confounding the door spoken of in this parable with the door mentioned in Luke 13:25-28, which reads, “When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are.... Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.” It is very evident from the above language that when this door is shut, the fate of those shut out is decided. The kingdom of God has then come; for they shall see the saved in the kingdom. On the contrary, in the parable of the virgins the Lord has not yet come into his kingdom, but has gone to his Father to receive his kingdom.GSAM 215.4
