Mr. Stuart Gordon read; Genesis 6 vs.5-14 and vs.22.
7 vs.1 and vs.7 and vs.11-16.
8 vs.1-4 and 13-14.
Exodus 12 vs.1-7 and 22-28 and 29-31.
John 10 vs.7-10.
The Door a way in, a way out and a door of opportunity.
1/ God shut them in. 2/ Blood applied around the door. 3/ I Am The Door.
1/ The Earth was corrupt and violent then and so it is today, but Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord, He obeyed God. They went into the Ark and God shut the door then the rain and the flood.
Men had had plenty of opportunity to go into the Ark but they didn't it was now too late. with God's judgement He always provides a way of escape.
2/ Death of the firstborn, God's people could escape this judgement by taking a lamb and killing it and applying it's blood to the door posts and lintel and they would be protected. The Lord Jesus was the perfect Lamb of God who shed His blood to free us from the judgement.
The destroyer passed over the houses with the blood applied, there was a way of escape from the judgement.
3/ John 10 vs.9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
vs.11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
vs.7 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.
Protection, Salvation the only way to Heaven.
John 14 vs.6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
He bore God's judgement in our place - He gave His life for the sheep so that we could escape God's judgement. Behold the Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the World.
There is an escape there is Salvation available to us by repentance and faith.
