There are two possibilities for what the open door might mean. 1) a door for the word of God to go through; or 2) A door that allows anyone to be in relationship with God. There really is no choice here, they are linked--in order for us to be on mission we need to be in relationship.
So roll up your sleeves, put your mind in gear, be totally ready to receive the gift that’s coming when Jesus arrives. Don’t lazily slip back into those old grooves of evil, doing just what you feel like doing. You didn’t know any better then; you do now. As obedient children, let yourselves be pulled into a way of life shaped by God’s life, a life energetic and blazing with holiness. God said, “I am holy; you be holy. [1 Peter 1:13-16]
