I saw in my mind, a pitch black wall that continually goes on as far as the eye can see from left to right and from top to bottom, but there is someone standing in front of this wall. I see a white silhouette of a person standing in front of this endless dark wall completely cutting off the other side. There is no opening anywhere to be seen in this evil dark wall of sin with only this person standing there facing it.
The white silhouette person disappeared leaving nothing, but the darkness. A small scene opens up and I see a left arm being stretched out onto a piece of wood nailing it into place and in the dark wall at the same time an opening forms equal to the left arm with light shining through holding a permanent place.
I see movement on the right side with an arm being laid out on a piece of wood being nailed into place. The black wall opens to the right with more light shining through, holding a permanent place. The image becomes more clear as the legs are stretched out on the wood with the feet being nailed into place. The black wall of sin trying to resist another opening down towards the feet with even more light shines through making a permanent opening.
I see a man’s head with a crown of thorns pressed down, bringing forth streams of blood, laid backwards onto the wood as the black wall gives way, and stretching the opening wider with the light shining through this man’s out stretched arms, legs, and head. The black dark wall is still completely covering as far as the eye can, but in this one area it has an opening that it cannot close.
Above the man’s head, nailed to the cross made of wood, I could see a plague with the words, “This Is Jesus The King Of The Jews” Mtt. 27:37 The wall of darkness was trying to close, but the blood from the hands, feet and head held open the doorway in the evil sin filled wall.
In the stillness a voice speaks out, “…Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do…” and with a loud voice “…he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit…he gave up the ghost.” and died. Luke 23:34, 46 The dark evil wall built up a serge of strength believing it could close the light shining opening once this man was dead. With all the power of evil coming against that opening they could not close the opening because the Almighty hands of God accepted the blood sacrifice holding it open permanently.
DOOR FORMING
At there very moment there was a sense of waiting and anticipation that things were not completely finished yet. The white silhouette of a person appeared inside the dark black prison walls where other captives were imprisoned after they died. He had descended into the lower parts of the earth Eph. 4:9. For three days the darkness could not overpower the opening in its wall. God’s light was still shining through it freely towards mankind that was trapped inside.
On the third day, what was anticipated began to happen as the white silhouette of a person started walking out of the prison of death and not one step he took could be stopped. He was once dead, but now is alive for evermore. The dark place of death could hold him no longer. He took the keys of death and he took the keys of hell for his blood and the forgiveness of the Father through him permanently opened a door through the endless evil dark wall separating mankind from God.
He returns to his body inside the burial tomb after three days transfiguring the fleshly body into an eternal body made to pass from heaven to earth and earth to heaven through the only door in this black wall dome of evil imprisoning mankind in sin. Jesus said, Rev. 1:18 “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.” Jn. 11:25 “…I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:” The doorway was finished.
Jesus passed through the opening in the dark evil wall that he had made with his blood, his death, his burial, and his resurrection. Jesus, the man, returned to heaven having control of the keys of death and hell. The name of the door is Jesus and the dark wall of evil cannot close it because God accepted his payment for mankind’s debt of death and hell.
Jesus is on the other side in the light of heaven with the keys of death and hell, but before he left he gave the keys to the kingdom to a man called Peter. Jesus is free to come and go throughout all the earth, but mankind needs the keys to the kingdom of heaven to be able to go through the only door in the black wall.
PERMISSION TO PASS THROUGH THE DOOR
Peter handed out the keys to the kingdom of heaven on what we need to do to have the same freedom as Jesus. Acts 2:38 “Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” The keys to the kingdom of heaven has two basic elements to be fulfilled for us to enjoy that same freedom otherwise our death will hit and miss that opening in the way of darkness.
The opening in the black dark wall was made by a born again of the water and of the spirit Jn. 3 Jesus knew all of his blood, death, and burial would be applied to us in water baptism when his name, Jesus, is spoken over us removing our sins, otherwise we would die sticking to the dark wall of death. Jesus also knew it would take the power of his resurrected eternal Spirit to convert our sinful eternal spirit into a new creature in Christ 2 Cor.5:17 to have the power to pass from the earth through his door to eternal life with God.
Jn. 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” Jesus is that opening in the black wall of death providing us a way, giving us the truth with the keys of heaven, and the power of his life to come to the Father.
THERE IS A DOOR
I, now, see in my mind, a pitch black wall that continually goes on as far as the eye can see from left to right and from top to bottom, but there is a single doorway of light shinning through it. The door appears to have red pristine blood at the top of the door and on both sides of the right and the left along with the blood at the feet of the threshold.
My memory quickly takes me back to the deliverance of the Jews from Pharaoh when they took the blood of a lamb painting it over the top and sides of their doors for the death angel to pass by their house Ex. 12:7. When John saw Jesus in the New Testament he said, 29 “…Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” We must enter the door that Jesus has covered with his blood.
In the dark wall of death where there was no door. This new door formed by God and Jesus had a name above the door – “JESUS“. You could tell this door with heavenly light had the power of salvation in it and there was no other doorway between heaven and earth whereby mankind must be saved. Acts 4:12 On the right side of the door was written “Repent” and on the left side of the door was written “Be baptized in Jesus name to remove your sins“. At the foot of the threshold was written “receive the gift of the Holy Ghost for the transforming power to enter in“.
Here we are standing in front of this open door God has provided with the key steps written all around it and how to enter in leaving us with the choice of the black wall of death or agreeing with the steps of eternal life. You and I are in the days people are saying salvation is over here and over there. There are so many voices pretending to be the keys to the kingdom of heaven that if these days are not shortened the very elect of God could possibly be deceived Mtt. 24:22-24. We cannot gamble our eternal soul on what people say, but by what God says in His word.
Jesus has the keys of hell and death under his control and Jesus gave Peter the keys of the Kingdom of heaven in his control. Jesus took his keys back to heaven and Peter stayed here on earth handing out the keys of salvation to all who will listen. Are you locked behind the door of death and hell? Do you want your door to be unlocked to see and enter into the fellowship of heaven with God that loves you so much He came in the form of man to save you? Do you really want to know freedom for your hungry soul?
Heb. 2:14 “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;“
Walk through the door in Jesus name, repenting of your sins, being baptized in Jesus name to remove all your sins, and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost with power transforming your soul. You will never be the same. May God richly bless you with His fellowship until He comes back.
