AND THE DOOR WAS SHUT

It was final.
The door was shut.
Everyone who was not inside, drowned.

1– And who decided when to close the door ?
2– And who closed the door ?
3– And who could not open the door, even if he wanted to, even while everybody outside was drowning, and everybody inside was safe ?

(1)– God decided when to close the door of the ark.
(2)– “God closed the door of the ark.”
(3)– Noah could not open the door of the ark, even if he wanted to, even while he knew everyone outside was drowning.

So it is graphically true today.
“But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark.
And they did not know until the flood came, and took them all away.
So shall also the coming of the Son of man be.”

“What He opens no one can shut, and what He shuts no one can open.”

“After the master of the house gets up and shuts the door, you will stand outside knocking and saying, ‘Lord, open the door for us.’ But he will reply, ‘I do not know where you are from.’”
