Jesus: Knock the door

Tweet

----------------------------------------------------- Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches (Revelation 3:20-22). --------------------------------------------- What does such a verse mean? This is such a commonly quoted verse and yet I wonder how much thought and reflection goes into it. “So, Jesus is standing at the door and knocking? Which door? Oh the door to my heart. I didn’t realize my heart had a door.” And so the dialog goes on and on, never being resolved but always followed by yet another Christian euphemism.
