Next Saturday and Sunday is our annual Ambassadors Seminar, and you are invited to join us in Kokomo, Indiana for sound teaching about The Will of God Made Clear.
The doors will be open, and food and admission are as free as salvation! (It’s already paid for.)
Speaking of open doors, have you ever heard preachers speak about God opening doors for you?
It has become an accepted principle of Christian instruction to teach saints to discover God’s will for their life by looking for open doors.
Is this true? Is it Biblical? Should we look at our immediate circumstances to determine God’s will for us?
I heard that God sometimes opens windows. Which, of course is like a door, but a little harder to climb through.
Paul said he had a great door opened unto him. Here is how he described it.
“For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.” – 1 Corinthians 16:9
Wouldn’t this be the opposite of how modern Christians describe an open door if there were many adversaries standing in the doorway? The only way he would get through that is a strength of will. A will that he must possess before the door was opened.
The truth is that God is not revealing his will through open doors like a prize on The Price is Right. His will has been revealed already, and what we find behind both closed and open doors is people.
God has a will for those people, and you can explain it to them after attending The Will of God Made Clear next weekend.
See you there!
