In John 10, Christ enters by the door (the appointed Jewish way) into the Jewish sheepfold, but afterward Jesus Himself becomes the only door, or entrance, into life. There is no such thing in the present day as knocking at this door, for it is always open. It
will
be shut, and then it will not be re-opened (
Luke 13:25
25
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: (Luke 13:25)
).
An open door
means a way opened up by God for His service in any particular place.
